Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CC2538, CC2530

Hi;
I am thinking make a home automation system with Zigbee. I searched microcontroller for this project and I found cc2538 or cc2530.In the beginning I have some questions about this controllers

-Is it possible to set up a server in these kits?

-Is it possible to make a database in them?

-Is it possible to create a 3G connection or GSM connection for our kits?

-Is it possible to increase the memory for this kit because we want to embed the server in our kits?

This is my first project with a microcontroller and I have newbie in this area. Can you help me?

Thank you.

    In your case, I would suggest you to use a ARM9 System at least to act as a host and communicate with Zigbee coordinstor by UART or SPI. For coordinator, you can choose CC2530 or CC2538. For devices or router, CC2530 is good enough.

    thanks for answering, 

    but I have limited budget for this project like 150-200 USD, I cannot build server in my coordinator ? I have very limited knowledge about this problem, but I want to learn everything as I can. 

    Thanks again :)
