Texas Instruments: CC2510DK-MINI - CC2510 Mini Development Kit

Kit Overview   The CC2510CC2510 Mini Development kit (CC2510DK-MINICC2510DK-MINI) is an inexpensive and flexible development platform for TI's CC2510Fx RF System-on-Chip solution. The CC2510Fx features a 26MHz single-cycle 8051 microcontroller with integrated CC2500CC2500 RF transceiver, FLASH, RAM, 5 DMA channels, ADC, PWM, UART, SPI, I2S, 4 timers, and 21 GPIO pins. This kit is all you need to build a prototype of a wireless sensor node application!   The CC2510CC2510 mini development kit include all the necessary hardware in order to evaluate, demonstrate, prototype and develop software targeting proprietary applications requiring a sub  2.4 GHz radio.   The CC2510Fx is a true low-cost 2.4 GHz system-on-chip (SoC) designed for lowpower wireless applications. The CC2510Fx combines the excellent performance of the state-of-the-art RF transceiver CC2500CC2500 with an industry-standard enhanced 8051 MCU, up to 32 kB of in-system programmable flash memory and 4 kB of RAM, and many other powerful features. The small 6×6 mm package makes it very suited for applications with size limitations.   The CC2510Fx is highly suited for systems where very low power consumption is required. This is ensured by several advanced low-power operating modes. The CC2511Fx adds a full-speed USB controller to the feature set of the CC2510Fx. Interfacing to a PC using the USB interface is quick and easy, and the high data rate (12 Mbps) of the USB interface avoids the bottlenecks of RS-232RS-232 or low-speed USB interfaces.   Key Applications: 2400 - 2483.5 MHz ISM/SRD band systems, Consumer electronics, Wireless keyboard and mouse, Wireless voice-quality audio, RF enabled remote controls, Wireless sports and leisure equipment, Low power telemetry.
