Many Questions about CC2530!!!!

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CC2530, Z-STACK, CC2520

Hi, I'm from Brazil and I'm working in a research project for the university using the CC2530...

I made the schematic show in the figure below:

Well... First question... This schematic is possible using only CC2530 like a microcontroller and RF transmit at same time?

Second question... How to use the samples in z-stack without the development kit board? I don't know how programming this thing (I'm beginner)! :-(

I want programmer this board above with samples codes in z-stack, but all samples use the development kit board! :S

Somebody help-me!

Thanks! (sorry my pool english)!

Francisco Erivaldo Fernandes Junior,

do you want to use another microcontroler instead of cc2530? like MSP430+cc2520?

for programming, you need to use the cc debugger and it will work with your board. http://focus.ti.com/docs/toolsw/folders/print/cc-debugger.html

Hi, Franz Gustava Niederheitmann...

Thanks for response! :D

I want use only CC2530... It will works how a microcontroller and a radio at same time... No one other microcontroller will use in this project...

I know about CC Debugger... But, I don't have any experience with zigbee programming and the samples in z-stack aways utilize the development kit, but I don't have this kit...

If I use the samples in Z-Stack with CC Debugger and my board it will work (no development kit)?

Thanks again!

Francisco,

the samples will work with your board, but you need to use the same GPIO ports for the sensors, or modify the source code to use another GPIO.

I recommend tyou start to read a lot of the collateral that we provide with our Z-Stack and on the CC2530 product page. There are numerous User's Guide that should help guide you in your development effort.

I recommend you start with SRF Studio and CC debugger to verify your basic RF functionality with your research project.
