CC2340R5-Q1: How to create project in CCS for Q1 Variant?

Part Number: CC2340R5-Q1
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CC2340R5, SYSCONFIG,

Tool/software:

Hello,

I would very much like to use the Q1 variant of the CC2340 (due to high stock) in a future design. However, I faced some issues while getting an impression of the CCS IDE.

When I select the Q1 variant in CCS Theia i get this: No example projects found.

The SDK seems to be discovered in CCS:

How should I go forward to create a example project for the Q1 variant? I also noticed that in the System Config Tool the Q1 variant leads to the Device "CC2340R5RHB". Should I just create a normal CC2340R5 project in CCS ans only use pins that exist on the 32 Pin RHB package?

Thank you in advance for your help.

  • Hello Wieland, 

    The example projects available for the CC2340R5 will work with the CC2340R5-Q1 device, but within Sysconfig, the device should be switched to CC2340R5-Q1. This will match the pinout for Q1 device, while using the CC2340R5 example projects. 

    Please download your current SDK to your computer before following these directions. 

    This can be done by following the directions below: 

    1. Navigate to File -> Import Project(s) -> Browse

    2. Navigate to the desired example project. For example, Basic_ble will be located in ..\simplelink_lowpower_f3_sdk_x_xx_xx_xx\examples\rtos\LP_EM_CC2340R5\ble5stack\basic_ble\freertos\ticlang

    3. Click Finish. 

    4. Open basic_ble.sysconfig

    5. Navigate to the Show Device View in the upper right corner

    6. Select Switch and in the drop-down menu under New Value, select CC2340R5-Q1 Development Platform 

    Be aware, some GPIO Configurations will need to be changed to new DIO pins. 

    Let me know if this works for you! 

    Thanks, 

    Isaac
