3 PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
3.1 Overview
The ZM1220 Z-Wave Module is a central part of Zensys’ Integrated Z-Wave Module family and is based
on Zensys’ Z-Wave Single Chip ZW0102. The ZW0102 is a single chip containing a RF transceiver, an
8051 micro-controller, a wide range of HW interfaces and Z-Wave SW Application Programming
Interface (API). The Z-Wave Module contains all the necessary hardware (HW) and software (SW)
needed for Z-Wave protocol handling and RF transmission/reception.
The ZM1220 Z-Wave Module can be used for designing both a Z-Wave Slave Node and a Z-Wave
Controller Node. A Z-Wave Slave Node is capable of executing commands requested by a Z-Wave
Controller Node. A Z-Wave Controller Node is capable of initiating commands, creating routing tables
etc., e.g. function as a remote control. For more node type information see [5].
The ZM1220 Z-Wave Module contains the ZW0102 Single Chip with integrated flash and SRAM.
Additionally the Module contains an RF front-end and a PCB antenna. Moreover the Module has
mounting option for Real-Time-Clock crystal, EEPROM, push button, DC/DC converter and wire antenna
or whip antenna (SMA connector).

An Application Module can be connected to the ZM1220 Z-Wave Module through an Application
Connector (see Figure 1). The Application Connector contains multiple user programmable General
Purpose I/O’s (GPIO’s) for interconnection with a wide range of Application Modules.
The RF data rate is 9600bps, and the carrier frequency is 868.42 MHz (model 7027) or 908.42 MHz
(model 7023). Frequency Shift Keying (FSK) is used as modulation type.
In addition to the Integrated Z-Wave Module family described within this datasheet a Small Form Factor
(SFF) Z-Wave Module Family is available. The SFF Z-Wave Module ZM1206 has no PCB antenna and
has double-sided component mount and has a size of 6cm
2
where as the ZM1220 has an integrated
PCB antenna and is single-sided component mount and has a size of 20cm
2
. For more information about
the ZM1206 Z-wave Module see [2].
