Product details

Overview

XG28-PK6024A from Silicon Labs is a wireless development kit comprising the BRD4400B dual-band radio board and compatible mainboard (BRD4001A or BRD4002A), built around the EFR32ZG28B312F1024IM68 Wireless SoC. It delivers +14 dBm output power at 868–915 MHz and +10 dBm at 2.4 GHz, integrates SMA and PCB antennas, and includes 8 Mbit serial flash for OTA updates - enabling rapid prototyping of sub-GHz and 2.4 GHz IoT end nodes.

For engineers reviewing the XG28-PK6024A datasheet, XG28-PK6024A pinout, XG28-PK6024A application, or XG28-PK6024A equivalent, this kit provides integrated J-Link debugging, Advanced Energy Monitor (AEM), Packet Trace Interface (PTI), Virtual COM port, and sensor-peripheral support - all critical for low-power wireless firmware validation, RF performance tuning, and system-level power profiling.

Technical Context

The XG28-PK6024A implements a complete evaluation platform for the EFR32ZG28 Wireless Gecko SoC, featuring dual-band RF front-end matching networks optimized for 868–915 MHz (SMA connector) and 2.4 GHz (inverted-F PCB antenna + optional UFL). The kit's architecture separates radio board and mainboard functions: BRD4400B hosts the SoC and RF circuitry, while BRD4001A/BRD4002A provide debug infrastructure, energy monitoring, and peripheral interfaces.

It supports Simplicity Studio-based development with Energy Profiler, Network Analyzer, and PTI packet capture. The mainboard's EXP header exposes flexible GPIOs (including SPI, UART, I²C), and breakout pads map EFR32 pins to physical test points - enabling hardware integration verification without custom PCB design.

FAQ

What is the XG28-PK6024A used for?

The XG28-PK6024A is a complete wireless development kit for evaluating and prototyping with the EFR32ZG28 Wireless Gecko SoC. It enables engineers to develop, debug, and optimize dual-band (868–915 MHz / 2.4 GHz) IoT applications - including RF performance testing, low-power firmware validation, OTA update implementation, and sensor-integrated end-node designs - without requiring custom hardware.

Does the XG28-PK6024A include a debugger?

Yes, the XG28-PK6024A includes an on-board SEGGER J-Link debugger integrated into the mainboard (BRD4001A or BRD4002A). This provides full SWD/JTAG debugging, real-time energy profiling via Advanced Energy Monitor (AEM), packet-level RF analysis via Packet Trace Interface (PTI), and Virtual COM port functionality - all accessible through USB or Ethernet connectivity.

Which frequency bands does the XG28-PK6024A support?

The XG28-PK6024A supports two distinct RF bands: 868–915 MHz (sub-GHz ISM band) with +14 dBm output power and SMA antenna connector, and 2.4 GHz (IEEE 802.15.4/Zigbee/Thread) with +10 dBm output power and integrated inverted-F PCB antenna. Both bands are implemented on the BRD4400B radio board using dedicated matching networks.

Can the XG28-PK6024A be used for production programming?

Yes, the XG28-PK6024A supports production programming via its on-board J-Link debugger. Engineers can use Simplicity Commander or third-party tools to flash firmware, configure production-ready settings (e.g., security keys, radio calibration), and perform mass-programming of EFR32ZG28 devices - making it suitable for both pre-production validation and small-batch manufacturing setup.

What sensors and peripherals are included on the XG28-PK6024A mainboard?

The XG28-PK6024A mainboard includes a Si7021 relative humidity and temperature sensor, a 128×128 pixel memory LCD, user LEDs and pushbuttons, a joystick (on BRD4002A), and expansion interfaces including a 20-pin EXP header and breakout pads. These enable immediate demonstration of sensor fusion, UI interaction, and peripheral integration - all directly tied to the EFR32ZG28 SoC's I/O resources.
