SmartRF Studio 7 - Basic read of a CC1101 registers connected to a CCdebugger

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CC1101

Hi,

Sorry my question could seem basic but I start to learn with CC1101 and TI Tools.

I buy simple board with a CC1101 chip and antenna. Install all softwares for CC debugger and SmartRF Studio 7.

All is working well and CC1101 has been seen in SmartRF Studio.

At this point i would simply do a backup of the original configuration of my CC1101 boards with the "Register Export" function of SmartRF Studio.

But i see than the registers values change in the register Windows from SmartRF Studio each time we change the mode or choose a Template. 

So is it possible to read and display the registers configuration from the chip in use before a "Register Export" as configuration backup ?

Thanks for help

Philippe

  • Note that when you do a "register export" in SmartRF Studio you are not reading from the chip, you are getting the recommended settings for that given datarate etc. If you change predefined setting the recommended setting will also change.

    What you typically want to do is start from the predefined setting that is closest to what you need and change the registers that are releavant (typically datarate, frequency etc). When you have gotten this to work as intended, save the settings (file -> save config) and do a register export and use these registers in your code.
