  • Hi xiaofu,

    Please be patient as the SimpleLink hardware experts are on leave until January 3rd.  Formal hardware design reviews can be submitted through SIMPLELINK-2-4GHZ-DESIGN-REVIEWS but will have a similar wait time.  Please provide full schematics and board layout including the RF front end.  You can review the LAUNCHXL-CC2640R2F Design Files and SWRA640 to further identify any other reasons for failure. 

    Regards,

  • Hi Xiaofu,

    Has there been any progress on comparing to the TI design files?

    Let me make sure I understand the problem:

    1. Can you program and debug the device via JTAG?

    2. Can you communicate with the device with SmartRF studio?

    3. Can you perform a conducted measurement with a spectrum analyzer and see if an output is being produced?

    On the schematic shown I don't see your RF section so it's not possible to provide feedback there.

    Thanks,

    Jake
