CT-EM2506 ZigBee Ready RF Transceiver Modules 13. SIF Module Programming and Debug Interface SIF is a synchronous serial interface developed by Cambridge Consultants Ltd. It is the primary programming and debug interface of the CT-EM2506. The SIF module allows external devices to read and write memory-mapped registers in real-time without changing the functionality or timing of the XAP2b core.

CT-EM2506 ZigBee Ready RF Transceiver Modules 16. Antenna Design Considerations The CT-EM2506 module includes an integrated PCB trace antenna. An optional MMCX connector can be specified, enabling connection to a 50-ohm external antenna of the user’s choice.. The PCB antenna employs an F-Antenna topology that is compact and supports an omni-directional radiation pattern. To maximize antenna efficiency, an adequate ground plane must be provided on the host PCB.
