NXP Selects DSR Corporation’s ZBOSS Zigbee® Stack for IW612 Tri-Radio Wireless Solution

DSR Corporation (DSR) today announced that its cross-platform Zigbee® stack, ZBOSS, now supports NXP® Semiconductor’s IW612 dual-band Wi-Fi 6 +Bluetooth® + 802.15.4 multi-protocol Tri-Radio solution for Linux hosted platforms. Additionally, NXP has joined the ZBOSS Open Initiative (ZOI), a collaborative community founded by DSR to advance IoT interoperability, simplify development, and reduce costs across the product lifecycle.

DSR Corporation has collaborated with NXP to integrate DSR's ZBOSS Zigbee® PRO 2023 (R23) software stack with NXP's IW612 Tri-Radio wireless connectivity chip. This integration not only streamlines development but also provides seamless coexistence between Zigbee and Matter over Thread protocols, as well as Wi-Fi and Bluetooth®, ensuring robust multi-protocol functionality. ZBOSS’s flexibility in customization, testing, and optimization complements the IW612’s ability to power advanced IoT applications with reliable, interoperable solutions. When combined with the NXP i.MX 93 applications processor, the IW612 has been certified as a Zigbee R23 Compliant Platform (ZCP). It makes it a strong foundation to achieve product level Zigbee R23 certification.

“Joining ZOI and integrating DSR’s ZBOSS Zigbee® stack with the Linux version of our IW612 Tri-Radio solution reflects NXP’s dedication to advancing IoT interoperability,” said Larry Olivas, Vice President and General Manager, Wireless Connectivity Solutions at NXP Semiconductors. “This collaboration expands the options  our customers have available to build innovative and reliable IoT solutions that seamlessly connect across multiple protocols, accelerating their time to market and reducing development complexity.”

The IW612, is optimized for a wide range of IoT applications, including, smart appliances, smart speakers, display hubs, energy management systems, industrial automation and gateways. With the addition of the ZBOSS-based Zigbee functionality, the IW612 is an optimized single radio chip solution for Matter to Zigbee bridges. The IW612’s advanced integration reduces system costs, minimizes external components, and ensures coexistence among internal and external radios, delivering low power consumption and robust RF performance.

“DSR Corporation is excited to work with NXP to bring ZBOSS to the IW612, offering developers an unparalleled platform for Zigbee-based innovation,” said Anatoli Pechkov, CEO of DSR Corporation. “NXP’s membership in ZOI underscores the importance of collaboration in driving high-quality, secure, and interoperable IoT solutions. Together, we’re making it easier for engineers to design feature-rich, scalable devices that integrate seamlessly into the broader IoT ecosystem.”

ZOI empowers silicon vendors and device manufacturers with access to ZBOSS source code, continuous integration tools, and a collaborative development environment. By simplifying the maintenance of protocol stacks, ZOI enables members to focus on innovation and delivering customer value.
