ZBOSS
ZBOSS is a Zigbee PRO software protocol stack developed by DSR Corporation. ZBOSS helps companies overcome the challenges of interoperability, porting, customization, testing and optimizing your Zigbee solution. Zigbee is an open, interoperable, full-stack IoT technology for a diverse ecosystem of platforms, products and support. ZBOSS is the official Zigbee stack for leading semiconductor manufacturers:
Benefits
Hardware Independence
ZBOSS is platform agnostic and can be be ported to fit your specific hardware needs
Cross Platform
ZBOSS uses the operating system and hardware dependent layer in order to reduce porting efforts between platforms
Custom Build
ZBOSS stack can be customized and optimized to meet specific customer needs at the time of compilation
Fixed Memory Footprint
Memory usage is not dynamic in ZBOSS. Instead, it is predictably planned & budgeted, so costs and usage are fixed over time
Optimized Memory Usage
ZBOSS optimizes energy uses for devices. ZBOSS device storage footprint is reduced using RAM memory

ZBOSS Testing
Test Suite
DSR’s automated testing and certification tools provide a number of solutions to problems typically encountered during the testing process.
Automated testing frameworks allow developers to improve the quality of their products through robust testing and minimize test development time by automating testing procedures. It would take three to four months to run these test manually, while DSR's automated tests take hours.
Test Driver Framework Features
- Formalize and control testing process
- Test preparation and execution along with the validation of testing results
- Results are collected and analyzed to locate errors or bugs
Benefits
Improve Product Quality
Minimize Test Development
Virtually Guaranteed Certification
| Test type | Number of tests | Approx. time to run (hours) |
| Certification tests | ~ 260 | 6 |
| Regressions tests | ~ 170 | 3 |
| Application level tests | ~ 60 | 3 |
Network Simulator
Zigbee Network Simulators can create testing scenarios for large networks, without using a real radio. This tool supports sophisticated testing scenarios that improve product quality by testing product code in all sorts of environments, using simulated device networks.
