CC2642R: Dual boot, two different stacks

Former Member

Part Number: CC2642R
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CC2652R

Is it possible to dual boot the CC2642R as either BT5 or a proprietary 2.4GHz 802.15.4 protocol? How would that be done? The goal is to have the option to boot in a legacy mode or in a new BT5 mode so the same board can act as one or the other.

Thanks,
Brian

I think CC2642R doesn't support 2.4GHz 802.15.4 protocol. You might need to use CC2652R.

Hi Brian,

The CC2642R does support 2.4 GHz Proprietary RF commands, but does not support IEEE 802.15.4 RF commands. Understand that Proprietary and IEEE 802.15.4 are two different PHYs.
