CC2510: cc2510 using without external oscillator.

Guru 14820 points
Part Number: CC2510


Hello,

Is it possible to use cc2510 without external crystal oscillator?

if yes then what are the hardware and software settings rquired? 

  • Hello,

    Please refer to section "2.7 Low Power" in the CC2510 data sheet where it states that "the high speed crystal oscillator must be used when the radio is active". Details on the low speed 32.768 kHz xosc are also provided.

    Best wishes

  • what is the use of internal RC OSCILLATORS...can we use that instead of external oscillator??
  • The internal High-Speed RCOSC is used by the MCU when not performing RF/radio operations. Likewise, the low-speed RCOSC is used when higher sleep clock accuracy is not required. If you intend to use the device's wireless function, then use of an external 24 MHz crystal that meets the data sheet requirements is mandatory.

    Best wishes
