CC3350: CC3350 mass production schedule

Hi,

Q1. Please tell me the mass production schedule for CC3350 and CC3351.

Q2. The host side that controls the WiFi module is STM32F411CE and is equipped with FREE RTOS. Do you provide a library to control the API?

Thanks,

Conor

  • Hi Conor,

    Q1: I am not able answer to Q1, please wait for answer from TI.

    Q2: Access to Drivers for MCU can be asked at - www.ti.com/.../CC33XX-SOFTWARE. But are you really sure that STM32F411CE have enough resources? That MCU have only 128kB RAM. For TCP/IP stack it likely be enough, but for TLS stack it will be slightly problematic. Also this MCU will not have enough performance for fast establishing TLS connections especially if elliptic-curves for TLS 1.2 and TLS 1.3 will be used.

  • A1: The next release of CC3xx MCU Plugin is expected on August. This will support 5G but will still be considered pre-production. The formal production release would be expected couple months later (no official date yet).

    A2: The CC33xx-MCU-Plugin is already available (v0.7 - see "CC33XX-SW  CC33xx restricted software" in the link that Jan provided). The software (driver to control the API) can be ported to STM32 host but as Jan said you will probably need more memory (both the 512KB of flash and 128KB ram are marginal as Network and TLS stacks are needed on top of the CC3xx driver).
