The document discusses the hardware design of wireless sensor network nodes or "motes". It covers topics such as the microprocessor system, radio frequency design considerations including propagation and antennas, data packet design, input/output interfaces, and sensor modalities. The goal is to design low-power, integrated hardware that meets interface standards and supports a variety of sensor applications in a cost-effective way. Examples are given of several generations of mote designs from 1999 to 2009.

7. MOTE DESIGN (HW) : System Overview RF/Processing Board Sensor Board Interface Board The RF/Processor Board (MPR300CB) which contains the micro controller that will provide all of the necessary control, processing, and communication signals to the sensors as well as the transmission of data over the wireless link station. The Sensor Board (MTS310CA), which contains the sensors and connects on top of the RF/Processor Board via a 51 pin connector. This board contains anywhere from 2-5 sensors and is responsible for gathering data. The Interface Board (MIB300CA), which acts as a Base Station and is used for programming the RF/Processor Board, or transferring data collected by the sensors to a PC via the serial port, or communication port.
