Part Number: CC1120EMK-420-470
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CC1020, CC1120, SMARTRFTRXEBK, , CC1310

Hello TI Community,

I have some "issues" with synchronous serial mode.

Here is the context before my actual question.

I'm currently working on a project with the CC1120. The main purpose is to replace our old brand working on CC1020 :

MCU - [CC1020] <------air-------> [CC1020] - MCU

with a new product based on the CC1120 but software compatible (software in MCU can't be alterated) :

MCU - [MCUb-CC1120] <----air-----> [CC1120-MCUb] - MCU

To do so im working with another MCU (MCUb) to program the CC1120 in synchronous serial mode.

I use :

- the evaluation board (SMARTRFTRXEBK) with the 434 module (CC1120EMK-420-470)

- MCUb with a CC1120 module

Now here is my setup:

setup 1 : SMART RF STUDIO - [SMARTRFTRXEBK - CC1120EMK-420-470] ----------- air -------------> [CC1120] - MCU

setup 2 : MCU - [MCUb - CC1120] ----------air --------> [CC1120] - MCU

I m working first in TX mode (in the future i need bi-directionnal communication)

Setup 1 is working great ! (positive sign ! )

Setup 2 isn't :

- configuration is the same in the 2 setups (settings of the CC1120)

- i see the modulation on my spectrum at correct frequency - but nothing on the receiver side

Question : Why ? i'm probably missing something.

Is-it possible to have an explanation of what happened inside the SMARTRFTRXEBK with smart fr studio ? (maybe i'm missing some commands)

I did probe spi commands when working and i found periodically reading of marcstate & fscal-ctrl registers (i ve implement them in my MCUb software but no change)

Here is my code sample for my MCUb

canal_frequence = 0x00;

InitCC1120Register();				        // CC1120 configuration (same as smart rf studio)						
manual_Calibration_VCO();                   // VCO calibration according to errata
Prog_Pll_Em(canal_frequence);               // set frequency channel + calibration
WriteToCC1120StrobeRegister(CC112X_STX); 	// Transmitter Mode

thanks for your help !

sorry for my poor english.

Best Regard

Charles

Hi Charles,

Can you post the configuration you have on the Rx side as well?

Hello Marie,

The RX side is our old RF module based on the CC1020.

I have started "sniffing" spi line after stopping spi polling in smartRFstudio and i m analysing the commands on start and stop button.

here is the configuration on the RX side (CC1020)

When running the transmitter from SmartRF Studio I assume you sending packet is normal FIFO mode, but what is the configuration you use when you try to program the CC1120 for serial mode? Are you using async. or sync serial mode?

Also, you are doing the manual calibration BEFORE you are setting the frequency. That does not make sense, as you need to set the frequency FIRST, then calibrate.

Hi Siri,

In smartRF studio im running in synchronous serial mode. I use my hardware to send to data stream (clock and data connected on P7)

note about the programmation of the frequency, this function also calibrate at the end. The manual calibration is done once at start (to match the errata) then when application need multiple working frequency, my function launch the calibration each time.

Sorry for the missing informations

Best Regards

Charles

I need you to share the details of your code.

What registers are you writing in InitCC1120Register() and what is the code you run in Prog_Pll_Em(canal_frequence)

I assume manual_Calibration_VCO() is according to the errata.

Also, have you monitored your SPI bus to see that it is according to spec?

Please share some plots showing the 4 SPI lines when writing a register and the reading it back.

Code in Prog_Pll_Em (i actually dont change the frequency i just do another calibration)

	FREQ = FREQ_BASE + (canal*CANAL_STEP);
	FREQ--;												/* compensation quartz */
	H_FREQ = (unsigned char)((FREQ>>8))&0x00FF;   		/* sepration registre */
	L_FREQ = (unsigned char)(FREQ&0x00FF);				/* separation registre */

	do{
		marcState=ReadFromCC1120Register(CC112X_MARCSTATE);
	}while((marcState & 0x1F) != 0x01);					// attente IDLE mode
}

The manual calibration is the code from the errata

In regards for the SPI line, we already use CC1120 module in fifo mode and works great. I compared spi line from evaluation board and mine while reading marcstate register and nothing is wrong there.

When you have PARTVERSION = 0x21, like you do, you need to run the manual calibration routine from the errata. That means that you need to turn off autocal (SETTLING_CFG. FS_AUTOCAL = 00b).

You have it set to 01.

Also, you should not run the manual calibration routine before you set the FREQ register, but after.

You cannot just strobe SCAL when you change FREQ registers (like you do in Prog_Pll_Em).

You need to run the complete manualCalibration routine provided code for in the errata note.

Pseudo code:

Init MCU
Write all register from SmartRF Studio to the CC1120 (Make sure SETTLING_CFG. FS_AUTOCAL = 00b)
Set the frequency (if not set with default values above)
Call manualCalibration() from the errata note (the complete code)
Strobe STX

I am surprised if you get SETTLING_CFG = 0x0B from SmartRF Studio if you connect a device with PARTVERSION = 0x21.

When I do this, I get SETTLING_CFG = 0x03

If I open the device in offline mode, SETTLING_CFG = 0x0B (This is the value recommended you’re the newest devices, as these have not problems with the synth calibration)

I will try your suggestions.

About the calibration, is necessary to do it every frequency change or once at startup is enough ?

I will be back to you with the results

I removed Prog_Pll so i just init the CC1120 with fs_autocal correction and correct frequency then strobe STX.

Same result : evaluation board OK, my board NOK. (same config in both, data stream is generate by the same device, receiver is the same, i just change de "black box" which is on 1 side evaluation board & smartRF and on the other my MCU & CC1120 rf module)

Can you tell me what the firmware does when you press start and stop in smart rf studio (sniffing with time gaps is quite a challenge, it ll save me a lot of time at troubleshooting this) at this stage :

- stop button initiate : strobe SIDLE then strobe SFTX

-start button initiate : read part number (value 0x48), read part version (value 0x21), read NUM_TXBYTES (value 0x00),then i missing the rest

You say you init CC1120 with correct freq. and then do STX. So when do you do the manual calibration?

Init MCU
Write all register from SmartRF Studio to the CC1120 (Make sure SETTLING_CFG. FS_AUTOCAL = 00b)

Hello,

I think it's easier for us (you and me ) to analyze why the evaluation board works then analyze why its doesnt on my hardware.

May i ask again some pseudo code from the interaction between the evaluation board and smartRF studio software ?

I think I'm missing something either obvious or stupid ^^"

Honestly, I do not know why you are facing problems with this.

I did the following tests, and did not have any problems (I tested on 868 MHz band and with a CC1310 as a receiver, as this was the HW I had available:

Test 1:

To verify the settings, I was running SmartRF Studio on both CC1120 (TrxEB) and CC1310 (LP).

I used Packet TX on CC1120 and Packet RX on CC1310.

On CC1120 I used the 38.4 kbps and on the CC1310 I selected the 50 kbps settings. In both cases, I changed the data rate to 9.6 kbps.

Test 2:

I selected Cont. TX in SmartRF Studio for the CC1120 and connected another MCU to the clock and data lines (GDO0 and GDO2). The other MCU was running code to transmit packets serially on the data line.

All packets were received by the CC1310 and SmartRF Studio

Test 3:

I did a code export in SmartRF Studio (from cont. mode). Settings are shown below:

// Address Config = No address check 
// Bit Rate = 9.6 
// Carrier Frequency = 868.000000 
// Deviation = 20.019531 
// Device Address = 0 
// Manchester Enable = false 
// Modulation Format = 2-GFSK 
// PA Ramping = true 
// Packet Bit Length = 0 
// Packet Length = 3 
// Packet Length Mode = Variable 
// Performance Mode = High Performance 
// RX Filter BW = 100.000000 
// Symbol rate = 9.6 
// TX Power = 15 
// Whitening = false

  {CC112X_SERIAL_STATUS,     0x08},
  {CC112X_MODEM_STATUS1,     0x10},
};

I wrote a small program on the CC1120 doing the following:

void main(void)
{
    // Initialize MCU and peripherals
    initMCU();
    
    // Write radio registers
    registerConfig();
    
    manualCalibration();
    
    trxSpiCmdStrobe(CC112X_STX);
    
    while(1);
}

On the other MCU I had the same code running as before. Also in this case all packets were received by the CC1310

Hello Siri,

I'm in the case of your setup "Test 2". I don't know why it doesnt work on my hardware.

I ll go back scratch my head and i ll post the solution if i find one.

Thanks for your help

Charles
