Migrating from CC1101-MSP430 to CC430

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CC1101, MSP430F5529

Hello,

  I have a working prototype of CC1101 evaluation module interfaced with MSP430F5529 Launchpad via SPI. Currently, I want to use CC430 based module. I have read the CC430 user guide and went through the differences between CC1101 module and CC1101 core in the CC430 chip. But, I want to know if the same RF register settings used for CC1101 can be used for CC430 as well. When using SmartRF Studio software, the typical settings are different for CC430 and CC1101.  

Thanks in advance

  • We always recommend that you use the settings given by SmartRF Studio.

  • Siri,

    Thanks for the reply. I was trying with the example code given by TI for packet mode, less than FIFO size toggle code. I'm getting an error stating :

    "../RfRegSettings.c", line 219: fatal error #35: #error directive: "Please select MHZ_868 or MHZ_915 as the active project configuration" 

    Can you please explain where should I mention the choice of frequency band.

    Thanks,

  • You need to define which band you are using, MHZ_868 or MHZ_915. In the examples on the web (I am using IAR) this is done as shown below:
