LAUNCHXL-CC26X2R1: simple_ble example with oad?

Hi all,

I am working on a new project with cc26x2r.

It seems the simple_ble project from resource explorer could be a good way to start.

My question is twofold.

  1. Is there any documentation (or maybe even a github repository) with this project simple_ble + oad features?
  2. My cc26x2r, can it work with these new app simplelink connect? Do I need to include this project "persistent" for OAD off chip? I was able to do OAD off chip long ago for another project without any "persistent" project. Is there any documentation for these new terms?

Thanks!

HAve a good weekend.

  • Hi kazola,

    There are simple peripheral OAD example programs in the SDK \\examples\rtos\CC26X2R1_LAUNCHXL\ble5stack

  • Hello Kazola,

    Thank you for reaching out.

    May I kindly ask if you meant to mention the "basic_ble" example here? Or were you rather referring to the simple_peripheral example?

    At the moment, there is no plan to add support for OAD on the basic_ble example for CC26x2.OAD support for the simple_peripheral example is available in the folder as indicated by kel. If needed, please refer to the labs here and the user's guide here.
    For information, OAD support for the basic_ble example has been implemented for CC2340R5.

    On CC2642r/CC2652r, only off-chip and on-chip OAD are possible. For on-chip OAD, the persistent app is required. Only dual-image OAD (not available on CC26x2) allows to get rid of the persistent app while not requiring an external flash.
    For information, CC2340R5 support dual-image OAD (see details here).

    The CC26x2 is supported by the new mobile app https://www.ti.com/tool/SIMPLELINK-CONNECT-SW-MOBILE-APP

    I hope this will help,

    Best regards,
