Texas Instruments: EM430F5137RF900 CC430F5137 Wireless Development Tool

Kit Overview

The Texas Instruments EM430F5137RF900EM430F5137RF900 is a complete wireless development tool for the CC430 that includes all the hardware required to develop an entire wireless project. The sample kit includes two sub-1GHz wireless target boards (including antennas) featuring the highly integrated 48-pin CC430F5137IRGZCC430F5137IRGZ RF System-on-chip. Projects may be developed and instantly deployed using the included batteries.

The CC430 integrates the latest MSP430F5xx core (which combines 25 MHz performance with a 200-ksps 12-bit ADC and an AES hardware security module) with the multiProductLinkmultiProductLinkCC1101 multi-channel RF transceiver designed for low-power wireless applications.

The EM430F5137RF900EM430F5137RF900 development board supports code development for the CC430F513x parts (48-pin QFN (RGZ) package). It also supports software development for the CC430F613x and CC430F612x flash parts (with LCD display).

A separate debugging and programming interface is required to work with the EM430F5137RF900EM430F5137RF900. A flash emulation tool (FET) may be purchased independently (MSP-FET430UIFMSP-FET430UIF).

The CC430 family provides a tight integration between the microcontroller core, its peripherals, software, and the RF transceiver, making these true system-on-chip solutions easy to use as well as improving performance.

The CC430F513x series are microcontroller system-on-chip configurations combining the excellent performance of the state-of-the-art multiProductLinkmultiProductLinkCC1101 sub-1-GHz RF transceiver with the MSP430 CPUXV2, up to 32 kB of in-system programmable flash memory, up to 4 kB of RAM, two 16-bit timers, a high performance 12-bit A/D converter with six external inputs plus internal temperature and battery sensors, comparator, universal serial communication interfaces (USCI), 128-bit AES security accelerator, hardware multiplier, DMA, real-time clock module with alarm capabilities, and up to 30 I/O pins.

The CC430F61xx series are microcontroller system-on-chip configurations combining the excellent performance of the state-of-the-art multiProductLinkmultiProductLinkCC1101 sub-1-GHz RF transceiver with the MSP430 CPUXV2, up to 32 kB of in-system programmable flash memory, up to 4 kB of RAM, two 16-bit timers, a high-performance 12-bit A/D converter with eight external inputs plus internal temperature and battery sensors on CC430F613x devices, comparator, universal serial communication interfaces (USCI), 128-bit AES security accelerator, hardware multiplier, DMA, real-time clock module with alarm capabilities, LCD driver, and up to 44 I/O pins.
