LAUNCHXL-CC3235SF: Is it possible to use TCP Sockets to communicate CC3235SF with other devices?

Part Number: LAUNCHXL-CC3235SF
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CC3235SF

Tool/software:

Hi, I'm recently doing a project with this CC3235SF board, and I need to get it to communicate wirelessly with other devices. 

In the past I made an HTTP server where the Launchpad was the host and it worked quite well, but now I have to communicate it with other devices using the router of the same WLAN network as a manager.

I wanted to ask if using TCP Sockets is a viable option on this Launchpad, as the TCP protocol fits my needs, but I want to make sure that it will work on this chip before proceeding to do anything (I know TCP goes before HTTP. Following that logic, TCP should work, right? But I see no examples of it on internet, so I doubt about implementing it).

Finally, I would like to know if anyone has replicated this work and if you have a couple of tips to give me about it. What files should I import and what is the structure of a project like in Code Composer. Thank you very much in advance.

  • Hi,

    Using TCP sockets will work without any issue. CC32xx devices uses BSD like socket APIs. At the internet you find meany examples for BSD socket TCP server or client.

    Structure of CCS project with sockets is same as other CC32xx project which uses sl_ API calls. Just you need to use sl_ socket API calls.
