CC2640R2L: FIrmware SDK compatbility

Part Number: CC2640R2L
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CC2640R2F, LAUNCHXL-CC2640R2

Hi Team,

Quick question as I am not familiar with the CC26xx SDK information. Will a design on the CC2640R2F be easily portable to the CC2640R2L. The SDKs are the same, but want to verify what needs to be considered.

How can we test that we can build firmware that supports the CC2640R2L without creating custom hardware for it first? Since it is the same SDK and the suggested development platform (LAUNCHXL-CC2640R2) uses the CC2640R2F it looks like it should run and build successfully even if the firmware requires something that the CC2640R2L does not support.

Basically, I want to asses if our existing firmware can be run on the CC2640R2L?

Regards,

Ramon

    The difference between CC2640R2F and CC2640R2L is mainly that that the Sensor Controller Engine has been removed on the latter. 

    Meaning that if your existing code uses the Sensor controller you can't port to CC2640R2L, if it doesn't, it should be straight forward to move to the new device. Note that also some of the peripherals in AUX that the Sensor Controller typically use has been removed (comparator, current source).
