Kit Overview
The eZ430-RF256xeZ430-RF256x is a complete TI Bluetooth evaluation and demonstration tool for the MSP430 and TI's Bluetooth that includes all the necessary hardware and software in a convenient USB stick.
The tool includes a USB-powered emulator to program and debug your application and two Bluetooth target boards featuring the highly integrated MSP430BT5190 ultra-low-power MCU & Panasonic PAN1323 module.
The required embedded software comes pre-flashed on the MSP430 device for ease of use out of the box. The tool also comes with a sample PC game that you can play using the target board as a remote controller. Users may download the eZ430-RF256xeZ430-RF256x Software Development Kit (SDK) to develop and instantly demonstrate Bluetooth applications using the included battery expansion board and AAA batteries.
The eZ430-RF256xeZ430-RF256x SDK includes MindTree's Ethermind Bluetooth stack, Serial Port Profile (SPP) and embedded sample applications running on FreeRTOS.
The Texas Instruments MSP430 family of ultralow-power microcontrollers consists of several devices featuring different sets of peripherals targeted for various applications. The architecture,combined with extensive low-power modes, is optimized to achieve extended battery life in portable measurement applications. The device features a powerful 16-bit RISC CPU, 16-bit registers, and constant generators that contribute to maximum code efficiency. The digitally controlled oscillator (DCO) allows wake-up from low-power modes to active mode in less than 5 µs.
NOTE: The eZ430-RF256xeZ430-RF256x SDK license requires that the MSP430BT5190 must be used only in combination with TI's Bluetooth solutions which are a part of Panasonic modules such as PAN1325 for production. This kit comes with the PAN1323 module for evaluation only. For production use, please use the PAN1315EMK.PAN1315EMK. or PAN1325 modules.
Key Applications: Smart Phones, Cable Replacement, Industrial Control, Automotive, Medical, Access Points, Scanners, Consumer Electronics, Wireless Sensors, Monitoring and Control, Low Power, Access Points
