Bringing Up Custom Devices for the EFR32MG and EFR32FG Families#

NOTE: This section replaces AN961: Bringing Up Custom Devices for the EFR32MG and EFR32FG Families. Further updates to this application note will be provided here.

This application note describes how to initialize a piece of custom hardware (a "device") based on the EFR32MG and EFR32FG families so that it interfaces correctly with a network stack. The same procedures can be used to restore devices whose settings have been corrupted or erased. Note, this document is based on Zigbee EmberZNet v7. Following the release of Zigbee EmberZNet v8, included in Simplicity SDK, several API and type definitions have changed. For more information, please visit https://docs.silabs.com/zigbee/8.0.0/zigbee-api-ref-v7-vs-v8/02-renaming-changes-in-zigbee.
