I want to connect cc3200 module to TMS320F28379D-launchpad. Tell me the different ways to do? If not possible by this device, what is the best ti board i should work on establishing wifi connection to Launchpad

    Naveenkumar,

    I am curious what your goal is? the CC3200 is a full featured microcontroller with on-chip Wi-Fi. Are you only seeking to add Wi-Fi to the F28379D?

    It looks like the CC3200 has a few LaunchPads - the CC3220S-LAUNCHXL  and CC3220SF-LAUNCHXL. These are full LaunchPads with on-board debug probes. 

    This is not typical, but the boards do look compatible to be plugged into each other. I.e. you could plug the CC3200 LaunchPad onto the F28379D LP. Your best options are SPI and I2C for your communications port. Be sure to enable the isolation features on the Launchxl-F28379D   by pulling JP1, JP2, and JP3, as the power supplies from the CC3200 LaunchPad will power the F28379D.

    Alternatively, you could go for the CC3100MODBOOST BoosterPack with the Launchxl-F28379D. The CC3100 is also a Wi-Fi device within the Simplelink platform.

    Regards,

    Mark

    Thank u so much sir,

    I am seeking how to add Wi-Fi to the F28379D

    1. Availability of CC3100MODBOOST BoosterPack with the Launchxl-F28379D.
    2. The CC3100 is also a Wi-Fi device within the Simplelink platform.

    What is the best option to go with 1 or 2?

    I think that is up to you to decide. connecting the two LaunchPads (#1) would require that you load programs on both devices. and then write the SW on the CC3200 to receive the data from the F28379D then transmit it. The SimpleLink platform should help with that. If you use the CC3100 BoosterPack, It just takes commands from the master device - you only need to write SW for the F28379D, and it will need to do the appropriate commands and configurations for the CC3100 to transmit and receive data.

    Again, that decision is up to you, but hopefully my description helps. If you have targeted questions on the CC3xxx devices, please post over on their forums.

    Thanks,
    Mark
