Texas Instruments: CC1101EMK868-915 - CC1101 Evaluation Module 868-915MHz

Kit Overview   The CC1101EMKCC1101EMK evaluation kit in combination with a CC1101CC1101 development kit is designed to help the user to achieve his/her objectives as quickly as possible:   Evaluate the SmartRF04 products. Right out of the box, the user can do range testing (PER testing) and transfer data from one PC to another using the SmartRF04DK. This enables the user to quickly find out how well the SmartRF04 products fit the intended application. A number of demonstration applications serve to highlight the innovative features of the SmartRF04 ICs. Perform RF measurements. Using SmartRF Studio, the user can configure the radio ICs with parameters that suit the intended application and easily measure sensitivity, output power and other RF parameters. Develop a prototype. The SmartRF04DK includes a Silicon Labs 8051-core MCU with 16 kB of program memory and 1 kB of data memory. By programming this MCU and utilizing the various peripherals included on the Evaluation Board, the user can easily make a prototype of the intended application. All signals are brought out on 0.1" pin-row connectors so easy connection of other required circuitry is possible. These connectors are also compatible with Agilent logic analyser probes for easy debugging. It is also possible to disconnect the Silicon Labs MCU from the EVM board, and connect a MCU selected by the user to the I/O connectors.   Key Applications: Ultra-Low-Power Wireless Applications ISM/SRD Bands, Remote Keyless Entry Systems, Passive Entry/Passive Start Systems, Vehicle Service Links, Garage Door Opener, TPMS Systems

Development Tools

Software Development Tools:

SmartRF Studio

SmartRF Studio is a Windows application that can be used to evaluate and configure Low Power RF-ICs from Texas Instruments. The application will help designers of RF systems to easily evaluate the RF-ICs at an early stage in the design process. It is especially useful for generation of configuration register values, for practical testing of the RF system and for finding optimized external component values. SmartRF Studio can be used both as a standalone application or together with applicable evaluation boards that are shipped in the RF-IC development kits.

Hardware Development Tools:

The CC1101EMKCC1101EMK require two SmartRF04DKs (included in multiProductLinkCC1101DK) for evaluation and development.

The CC1101EMKCC1101EMK can also be used with two MSP-EXP430FG4618MSP-EXP430FG4618/MSP-EXP430F2013 Experimenter Boards for software development, prototyping and testing using the multiProductLinkMSP430.
