Hi,
I’m trying to find more information about cc2541s. There is a sample code for MSP430 but I’m not able to find it. Also, does anybody know when this part (or dev kit for this part) will be available?
Thanks

We are in the process of completing the final piece of the code.
The CC2541S will be available as a booster pack in the estore to go along with the MSP430 LaunchPad.
Unfortunately I cannot commit to a date, but should be available in the next couple of months.

Will it be compatible with the Stellaris Launchpad? Will the source be available, or will be binaries built for MSP430 only?
The CC2541S will be "compatible" with any external host MCU that can communicate using UART or SPI. We will initially only be releasing host sample code for the MSP430, though it certainly should be possible to port this code onto a Stellaris MCU.

OK, that is an encouraging answer! Thanks.
TI has decided to not RTM CC2541S (BLE Network Processor). We still however realize that there is a market for BLE network processors and will have NWP option available in our next gen BLE
There are several BLE based products are in the market today that use the CC2540/CC2541 as a network processor.
Dedicated wiki page (will be continuously updated) that talks about how to use CC2540/41 as a NWP – http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/CC254X_WITH_EXT_MCU
An example of the CC2541 being used alongside a host MCU can be found on our wiki page here: http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/SimpleBLEPeripheral_SerialInterface
In this example, we have modified our SimpleBLEPeripheral application to include a serial “bridge” interface for communication with an external MCU over UART. A simple set of commands have been created, that allow the host MCU to perform BLE-related functions, such as start advertising and disconnect from a connection. A set of events have also been created, allowing the CC2541 to notify the host MCU about BLE-related events that occur. This set of commands and events can be extended to allow for a variety of functions for the application to perform.
Tony,
We are still in the development stage of the device and will publish info as and when it is available.
