CC2650MODA: Using CC3220SF as SAP

Part Number: CC2650MODA
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CC3220SF, , BLE-STACK, CC2650, SIMPLELINK-SDK-BLUETOOTH-PLUGIN, CC3220S

Hello.

I am starting to look into adding BLE functionality using the CC2650MODA, into my CC3220SF based (No RTOS) design. I am currently prototyping with a CC3220SF Launchpad and a  CC2650MODA BoosterPack. My understanding is that the CC2650MODA can be programmed to behave as a simple network processor, and an external TI MCU like that on the CC3220 can be set up to use the SAP library. Is this correct?

If so, where can I find an example for SAP? I have seen an example in BLE-STACK which uses the CC2650 BoosterPack as the SAP - what is the best way to port this to the CC3220?

Thanks,

Meenal

  • Hello Meenal,

    Any processor/MCU that is capable of supporting the SNP interface can be used as the SAP. We currently do not offer a port of the SAP example to the CC3220SF, but we recommend you register for updates with the "Alert Me" function on the SIMPLELINK-SDK-BLUETOOTH-PLUGIN page. Currently, the SimpleLink Bluetooth Plugin supports the MSP432.

    Best wishes
  • Hi JXS,

    Thank you for your reply. I'm not sure I understand - are you saying that in theory the CC3220SF could be used as a SAP, but there are no examples currently provided?

    I have registered for alerts, but is there any known timeline/plan to offer a SAP example for the CC3220SF?

    How do you recommend I proceed? Should I look into using Unified NPI or draw from the Host Test example instead?

    Regards,
    Meenal
  • Hello Meenal,

    We are currently working on adding support for CC3220 to the SDK BLE Plugin and will have a release out early next month (April). This will support both the CC3220SF and the CC3220S. It will support both CC2640R2 and CC2650 as a network processor. 

    Best Regards,

  • Perfect, thank you!
