Hi, actually I have Zigbee cc2520 and I downloaded the SmartRF studio software, but it showing no connected device. Please help me to configure zigbee cc2520, and also tell me the process to do communication between two zigbee. If there's any specific software, then let me know. Thank you.

Hi Suman,

The CC2520 is a transceiver which must receive commands from a host MCU in order to communicate through Zigbee protocol. The most common example is with the MSP430F2618 as shown with the CC2520DK. This is however a deprecated hardware design, as are the Zigbee software stacks that supported the CC2520. My recommendation is to evaluate the new SimpleLink CC13x2 / CC26x2 devices, you can get started with a few LAUNCHXL-CC1352P-2/LAUNCHXL-CC1352R1/CC2652R1 LaunchPads and the SIMPLELINK-CC13X2-26X2-SDK.
