What to use for my application?

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CC2540, CC2541

Hi,

I'm new to this domain and I want to ask some questions, so I'll begin with my application description.


My Application:

  • I am using a cc2540 with a atmega328p-mu to colect data from some sensors
  • The sensors are using the folowing peripherals:
    • two ADC channels
    • four I2C channels
    • two interrupt pins
    • three or four timers

My Questions:

  1. Can I only use the CC2541 for my application needs and get rid of the MCU?
  2. Can CC2541 measure the battery capacity?
  3. What tools do I need to start developing?
  4. How different is the programming language from the atmega328 (c)?

If I wasn't to clear enough, I will answer questions in the shortest time as possible.

Thanks!

    Hi Vlad,

    That should be fully doable.

    With ADC and some circuitry, yes.

    IAR Embedded Workbench for 8051 v8.20

    It's still embedded C although you will need to understand the OSAL task handling so you do not interrupt the radio module.

    Best Regards
