LAUNCHXL-CC26X2R1: cc2642 RSSI

Part Number: LAUNCHXL-CC26X2R1
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CC2541, CC2640, CC2642R

Where can information on RSSI characteristics of cc2642 be found, the datasheet just mentions the RSSI dynamic range, is the RSSI accuracy same as cc2640 at +/-4dbm, is there any more detailed RSSI characteristics like the one provided for cc2541. Also how viable is cc2642 to be used for tracking solutions based on RSSI.

  • Hi Eteom,

    This parameter is pending characterization on final silicon version. It is likely that the performance will be similar as on the CC2640.

    The CC2642R is as good as any other device when it comes to RSSI based tracking. Typically you will not get very good results with RSSI alone, but in some applications it can be good enough.

    Cheers,
    Fredrik
