Overview

Start your design with the industry’s first single-chip programmable microcontroller with built-in Wi-Fi connectivity. The CC3200 Launchpad (CC3200-LAUNCHXLCC3200-LAUNCHXL) kit is a development platform created for the Internet of Things (IoT), the SimpleLink™ CC3200 device is a wireless MCU that integrates a high-performance ARM® Cortex™-M4 MCU allowing customers to develop an entire application with a single IC. The board features on-board emulation using FTDI device and has temperature sensors and a 3-axis accelerometer for a full out of the box experience.

Traditional Wi-Fi solutions are designed for powerful microprocessors. CC3200 undertakes nearly all the functions required for Wi-Fi and networking thereby taking the strain off the host processor. With a Wi-Fi network processor containing on-chip WLAN and TCP/IP stack, as well as the SimpleLink connection manager, Embedded Crypto engine with 256-bit encryption, WPA personal and enterprise security, the CC3100 and 3200 make Wi-Fi design easy.

The CC3200 LaunchPad comes with driver support and SimpleLink Wi-Fi software SDK with 40+ applications for Wi-Fi protocols, internet applications and MCU peripheral examples and documentation needed to use the SDK. It also contains the Flash Programmer, a Command Line Tool for flashing SW, Configuring Network and Software parameters (SSID, Access Point Channel, Network Profile etc), System and User Files (Certificates, Web pages etc). All the user guides, design files, peripheral, API guides are also available.
