2 BitCloud Zigbee Stack Architecture and API Overview

The BitCloud® internal architecture adheres to the IEEE® 802.15.4 Standard and the Zigbee-defined separation of the networking stack into logical layers. The architecture encompasses a core stack responsible for protocol implementation and additional layers that implement shared services, such as:
  • Task manager
  • Security services
  • Power manager
  • Hardware abstractions
  • Hardware Abstraction Layer (HAL)

The APIs provided by these additional layers extend the functionality of the core stack, significantly reducing application complexity and streamlining integration.
