MSP432E401Y: Code for HCI through SPI instead of UART

Part Number: MSP432E401Y

Hello,

I am using the simple_central exemple in the Simplelink SDK BLE Plugin 3.20.00.24.

In this exemple the hci_tl files provides connection to the BLE NWP through UART.

Do you know where I can find an SPI version of this file ?

Kind regards.

Hi Frederic,

I searched through all of the simplelink sdk and did not find one.

Hello Dennis,

I found some related code in the Legacy NPI documentation (see link below) with UART and SPI options available.

https://dev.ti.com/tirex/explore/content/simplelink_cc13x2_26x2_sdk_3_10_00_53/docs/ble5stack/ble_user_guide/html/ble-stack-common/npi-index.html#

I guess this is the code used to buid the HostTest application that transforms a CC2642 into a BLE Network Processor.

I was wondering if I could use part of this code in the MSP432 to communicate with the Hosttest app in the CC2642.

What do you think ?

Regards.

Frederic

I don't see why not. Let me know what you discover.

Yes but before wasting some time I would be glad to get from Ti specialists if this could work as Central Device.

Kind regards.

Hi Frederic,

Since I can't locate an expert on this device I will have to set this up on the MSP432 and see what is needed. This may take a few days since I don't have this device with me today at my remote work location and will need to order one from our TI factory.
