This application example demonstrates the basic use of Texas Instruments’ CC2420 ZigBee-ready RF transceiver together with the MSP430F1611 MCU from Texas Instruments. The example shows how to interconnect the MSP430F1611 and the CC2420 for RF transmission and reception, using a subset of the IEEE 802.15.4 protocol.
The software handles MCU configuration, transceiver configuration and basic data flow. The software is an adapted version of the RF Blinking LED software example provided with the CC2420DBK Demonstration Board Kit. The hardware used in the example consists of an MSP-FET430 Development Tool from Texas Instruments equipped with an MSP430F1611 MCU. This kit is connected to the CC2420 hosted on the CC2400EB/CC2420EM boards from Texas Instruments. An auxiliary CC2420DB should be used to provide another IEEE 802.15.4 node to test the RF communication against. The software is written to be compatible with the IAR C/C++ compiler and the MSP430- GCC compiler from GNU.
