Product details
Overview
JN5139-EK000 from Jennic Ltd is an IEEE 802.15.4 wireless microcontroller evaluation kit comprising a controller board, four sensor boards, two high-power JN5139 modules, USB cables, and GNU-based SDK for Windows/Linux - enabling rapid development of star, mesh, and point-to-point wireless sensor networks.
For engineers reviewing the JN5139-EK000 datasheet, JN5139-EK000 pinout, JN5139-EK000 application, or JN5139-EK000 equivalent, this kit delivers full-stack support including hardware reference designs, unrestricted C/C++ toolchain, Daintree Sensor Network Analyser integration, and pre-validated home automation demonstration firmware.
Technical Context
The JN5139-EK000 integrates five physical network nodes (1× controller + 4× sensor boards) with identical JN5139-based modules, each featuring onboard temperature, light-level, and humidity sensors plus a 128×64 bitmapped LCD on the controller board. All boards support USB-hosted flash programming and serial debug via GNU toolchain.
It implements a complete IEEE 802.15.4 PHY/MAC stack with optional ZigBee Pro profile support through bundled wireless network libraries, and includes Daintree Networks' Sensor Network Analyser for packet-level decode, topology visualization, and real-time monitoring of 2.4 GHz ISM band traffic.

Manufacturer
Jennic Ltd was a UK-based fabless semiconductor company specializing in ultra-low-power wireless microcontrollers for IEEE 802.15.4 and ZigBee applications before its acquisition by NXP Semiconductors in 2010.
The JN5139 product line was designed specifically for battery-operated, self-organizing wireless sensor networks in home automation, commercial building control, and industrial telemetry - emphasizing integrated RF, MCU, and protocol stack co-design.
FAQ
What is the JN5139-EK000 used for?
The JN5139-EK000 is a complete evaluation platform for developing IEEE 802.15.4–based wireless sensor networks. It enables rapid prototyping of star, mesh, and point-to-point topologies using pre-integrated hardware nodes, GNU toolchain, and validated home automation firmware - all centered around the JN5139-EK000's five-node configuration and Daintree test suite.
Does the JN5139-EK000 include software tools?
Yes, the JN5139-EK000 includes a full GNU-based software development kit with ANSI C/C++ compiler, assembler, debugger, flash programmer, and CodeBlocks IDE for both Windows and Linux. It also bundles wireless network libraries, microcontroller peripheral drivers, and application examples - all directly usable with the JN5139-EK000 hardware without licensing restrictions.
What sensors are built into the JN5139-EK000 boards?
Each of the four sensor boards and the controller board in the JN5139-EK000 includes integrated temperature, ambient light level, and relative humidity sensors. These are factory-calibrated and accessible via the JN5139 microcontroller's ADC and I²C interfaces - enabling immediate data acquisition in the included home automation demo application running on the JN5139-EK000.
Can the JN5139-EK000 support ZigBee networks?
The JN5139-EK000 supports ZigBee Pro networking through optional stack libraries provided in the bundled SDK. While the base IEEE 802.15.4 PHY/MAC layer is fully implemented in hardware and firmware, ZigBee cluster library integration and certification-ready profiles require additional licensed components - but the JN5139-EK000 provides the validated hardware foundation and API access needed to build them.
Is the JN5139-EK000 still supported or available for new designs?
The JN5139-EK000 remains available through Aetrix Electronics for legacy design support, educational use, and retrofit projects. Though Jennic was acquired by NXP in 2010 and newer platforms like the JN516x and KW40Z have superseded it, the JN5139-EK000 retains full documentation, SDK binaries, and community reference designs - ensuring continued usability for the JN5139-EK000 in maintenance and migration contexts.
