Trying to connect Zigbee with Bluetooth module

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CC2520, CC2652R

Hi I am using ZigBee device store.ncd.io/.../ which consist of IC CC2520 using UART pin for RX and TX and VCC 3.3v Pin and ground pin and I want to send the data from Zigbee device BLE module www.rhydolabz.com/.../low-energy-bluetooth-40-moduledbm01-p-1483.html with IC CC2540 and test it, I am looking for possible circuit connection to send the data from ZigBee to BLE module possible , Also need to know for making these kind of connection, do I have to use any ADC IC for data conversion or not ? 

Note: Both the devices are connected by USB electric shield to laptop

  • Zigbee and BLE are two different protocol and they cannot talk to each other.
  • I think the question here is how the Zigbee module can communicate with the BLE module, right? If so, I would recommend using a serial protocol like UART or SPI. If the devices are running at the same voltage no data conversion ICs should be required.

    Cheers,
    Fredrik
  • yes Absolutely the question is regarding communication between BLE and Zigbee  and is it possible if I use I2C to connect both the devices at the same voltage, I have one more query is it possible to connect both the device directly without using the microcontroller in between, I am mentioning the  image attachment to explain properly, will be looking forward for your suggestions. 

  • This is doable. However, CC2520 is a transceiver which mean you need extra MCU to run Zigbee application. I would suggest you to use CC2652R which is latest TI SOC for Zigbee application.
