Texas Instruments: CC2530-CC2591EMK Evaluation Module Kit for CC2530 IEEE 802.15.4 System-on-Chip and the CC2591 RF Front End

Kit Overview The CC2591CC2591 RF Front End includes PA, LNA, switches, balun, RF matching network and inductor, and will increase output power and improve receiver sensitivity on a 2.4 GHz low-power RF solution. The CC2530CC2530 is an IEEE 802.15.4 compliant RF System-on-Chip.   The CC2530-CC2591EMKCC2530-CC2591EMK includes two CC2530-CC2591EMK.CC2530-CC2591EMK. evaluation modules and antennas. The CC2530-CC2591EM board combines the CC2530CC2530 IEEE 802.15.4 System-on-Chip and the CC2591CC2591 RF front end, providing a powerful solution for IEEE 802.15.4 and/or ZigBee applications requiring long range (higher output power) and improved sensitivity.   The CC2530-CC2591EMKCC2530-CC2591EMK allows you to evaluate the RF performance of the CC2530+CC2591 design, perform RF measurements and use it as a ready-to-use module in existing designs.   To use the module, a motherboard where the EM can be plugged in is needed. Compatible moterhboards would be the SmartRF05EB (Evaluation Board), SmartRF05BB (Battery Board) or SoC-BBSoC-BB (General Purpose System-on-Chip Battery Board). The two former are included in the CC2530DKCC2530DK and CC2530ZDKCC2530ZDK respectively. The SoC-BB is sold as a separate board.   Note:The CC2530CC2530 devices are preprogrammed with a Packet Error Rate (PER) test application that lets the user perform range tests with the boards. It is required to have a SmartRF05EB (from the CC2530DKCC2530DK) in order to run the PER test.     Key Applications: Wireless Sensor Networks, Wireless Industrial Systems, Wireless Consumer Systems, Wireless Audio Systems, 2.4-GHz IEEE 802.15.4 Systems, RF4CE Remote Control Systems (64-KB Flash and Higher), ZigBee Systems (256-KB Flash), Home/Building Automation, Lighting Systems, Industrial Control and Monitoring, Health Care
