CC3000 and CC2560 Direct Communication

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CC2560

Team,

Is there a way for the CC3000 and CC2560 to directly communicate without a host MSP430? Essentially, receive data over WiFi and transmit over BT.

In trying to do this, I wasn't sure if the CC3000 stripped TCP/IP header information from the packets before communicating the payload via SPI, or if the removal of the TCP/IP data was typically what occurs on the MSP430 host. If that is the case, can this functionality be added to the CC2560?

Thank you!

Regards,

Nishant

    Hi

    CC3000 receives data over WiFi and always transmits it through the SPI to the host device. Thus you need a host to communicate with CC3000. If the host is also connected to the CC2560 - you can "bridge" data from WiFi to BT.

    Regarding hte second question yes the CC3000 strips away TCP/IP information and behaves like a socket - pasing you only data.

    Hope this answers your question

    For completeness in this thread, in doing some follow up, the CC2560 is only a transceiver so it requires ~90kB on the host where the full BT stack will reside.

    Thanks,
