CC2560: msp430i2041 and PAN1323ETU

Part Number: CC2560
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: MSP-FET430U32A, MSP430I2041

Hi, im new to BLE, im working in a project which requires BLE connection, i have a MSP-FET430U32A  which has the MSP430i2041 and the PAN1323ETU module, is it possible to use them? or which BLE modules is compatible with that MCU?.

Thanks

  • Yes, you should be able to use it provided that you have a Bluetooth stack for this host.

  • Hi Eyal,

    Thanks for the quick response, im a bit confused, i been researching and i have noticed that this mcu doesn't has the minimum memory required for the Bluetooth stack that is on the CC256x wiki page, is there a way to modify the stack in order to fit in the mcu  or do you know if it already  exist ? 

    Regards

  • Hello,

    you can have a couple of profiles compiled and running on the MSP430.
    You are correct that if you'd like a version running many profiles than you might have memory problems.

    It is not possible to modify the TI dual-mode Bluetooth stack binaries to fit on this MCU. Generally for dual-mode Bluetooth applications with CC256x, we recommend an MCU with ~256KB flash to fit both Bluetooth stack and application on it depending on the exact use-case. There are some third party stacks (not supported by TI) that might be able to allow certain customization to reduce the memory footprint to some extent. But I find it really hard that a Bluetooth stack(regardless of which stack) and the application could fit in the 23KB flash of the MSP430i2041.

    Does your application require dual-mode Bluetooth (BT classic and BLE simultaneously) or BLE only? If BLE only, we have standalone Wireless MCUs that might be better suitable for your application.
