CC2530: Update CC2530 firmware in wireless method (i.e., without using debugger/ programmer)

Part Number: CC2530
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: Z-STACK

To whom it may concern,

Actually, in normal way,  we use debugger / programmer) to put our own firmware program into cc2530 IC (i.e., upgrade firmware program for Zigbee Coordinator, Router, End device). 

Consider a large Zigbee network ( >40-50pcs  Zigbee node), if we want to upgrade firmware, all we have to do is to put a debugger/programmer to each zigbee end device module to upgrade which is time-consuming. So, is there any simple way to upgrade the cc2530 firmware? (i.e., Without open the end device housing and plug in the programmer cable? /OR upgrade the End Device /Router firmware through wireless? /OR through Zigbee gateway?, etc)   

 

Thank you very much

Bruce Lam
