CC1120 and Tm4C123gxl (OR tm4c1294xl)

Ok, where are you in the process? Do you have a CC1120 EM and a Tiva kit and wonder what to do or do you actually have SPI connection between the two up and running and wonder how to implement a network?

I am just getting start and I am a total novice. I have download a lot of documents and the official examples of the two kits, but I dont know how to make these two kits work together and can communicate with another board. THX

CC1120 is programmed over the SPI interface. By programmed I mean setting the registers and issuing strobes that makes the radio go to TX ,RX, IDLE etc. To learn how you get a CC1120 to talk to another, check the easylink example here: http://www.ti.com/lit/zip/swrc253

To use this code on the TIVA you have to find out how to use the SPI. I assume that it exist some examples on this in the TIVA ware. Test first if you manage to read/ write to a single register to test that the SPI communication is up and running.

Thank you. I would try studying the examples you recommend.  Also, I wonder that can CC1120 works in ISO18000 stacks? Or it can only function in SimliciTI or  6LoWPan?

CC1120 is compliant with most stacks that uses the frequency range and modulation format the device can support.

ISO18000 is a document that covers a lot of frequencies and usages so it's not possible to answer without knowing which part you want to build a system to be compliant with.

The kit I own is CC1120-433MHz. If I want to build a system using ISO18000-7(which is specific for 433MHz), can CC1120 fits the stack? If it fits, what should I do to implement the stack on CC1120?
