Note the following details of the code protection feature on Microchip devices:
•
•
Microchip products meet the specification contained in their particular Microchip Data Sheet.
Microchip believes that its family of products is one of the most secure families of its kind on the market today, when used in the
intended manner and under normal conditions.
There are dishonest and possibly illegal methods used to breach the code protection feature. All of these methods, to our
knowledge, require using the Microchip products in a manner outside the operating specifications contained in Microchip’s Data
Sheets. Most likely, the person doing so is engaged in theft of intellectual property.
Microchip is willing to work with the customer who is concerned about the integrity of their code.
Neither Microchip nor any other semiconductor manufacturer can guarantee the security of their code. Code protection does not
mean that we are guaranteeing the product as “unbreakable.”
•
•
•
Code protection is constantly evolving. We at Microchip are committed to continuously improving the code protection features of our
products. Attempts to break Microchip’s code protection feature may be a violation of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act. If such acts
allow unauthorized access to your software or other copyrighted work, you may have a right to sue for relief under that Act.
Information contained in this publication regarding device
applications and the like is provided only for your convenience
and may be superseded by updates. It is your responsibility to
ensure that your application meets with your specifications.
MICROCHIP MAKES NO REPRESENTATIONS OR

INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO ITS CONDITION,
QUALITY, PERFORMANCE, MERCHANTABILITY OR

arising from this information and its use. Use of Microchip
devices in life support and/or safety applications is entirely at

Most Current Data Sheet
To obtain the most up-to-date version of this data sheet, please register at our Worldwide Web site at:
http://www.microchip.com
You can determine the version of a data sheet by examining its literature number found on the bottom outside corner of any page.
The last character of the literature number is the version number, (e.g., DS30000A is version A of document DS30000).
Errata
An errata sheet, describing minor operational differences from the data sheet and recommended workarounds, may exist for current
devices. As device/documentation issues become known to us, we will publish an errata sheet. The errata will specify the revision
of silicon and revision of document to which it applies.
To determine if an errata sheet exists for a particular device, please check with one of the following:
• Microchip’s Worldwide Web site; http://www.microchip.com
• Your local Microchip sales office (see last page)
When contacting a sales office, please specify which device, revision of silicon and data sheet (include literature number) you are
using.

MRF24J40
1.0
OVERVIEW
The MRF24J40 is an IEEE 802.15.4™ Standard com-
pliant 2.4 GHz RF transceiver. It integrates the PHY
and MAC functionality in a single chip solution.
Figure 1-1 shows a simplified block diagram of a
MRF24J40 wireless node. The MRF24J40 creates a
low-cost, low-power, low data rate (250 or 625 kbps)
Wireless Personal Area Network (WPAN) device. The
MRF24J40 interfaces to many popular Microchip PIC
®
microcontrollers via a 4-wire serial SPI interface,
interrupt, wake and Reset.
The MRF24J40 provides hardware support for:
• Energy Detection
• Carrier Sense
Three CCA Modes
CSMA-CA Algorithm
Automatic Packet Retransmission
Automatic Acknowledgment
Independent Transmit, Beacon and GTS FIFO
Buffers
• Security Engine supports Encryption and
Decryption for MAC Sublayer and Upper Layer
These features reduce the processing load, allowing
the use of low-cost 8-bit microcontrollers.
The MRF24J40 is compatible with Microchip's
ZigBee
®
, MiWi™ and MiWi P2P software stacks. Each
software stack is available as a free download, includ-
ing source code, from the Microchip web site:
http://www.microchip.com/wireless.
