Other Parts Discussed in Thread: , , CC31XXEMUBOOST, UNIFLASH, CC3120BOOST, CC3120, CC3120SIMPLESTUDIO, CC3200
Good day,
I have been evaluating the CC3100 possibilities with CC3100Boost and CC31XXEMUBOST to integrate it into company device with MSP430 MCU.
I've started year ago with CC3100SDK 1.X.X. I can not recover currently, I have only my reworked project template with part of it. The Driver had version:
#define SL_DRIVER_VERSION "1.0.1.6"
And I'm using files of SimpleLink Studio:
$ md5sum * 8315b563cd3579fa457bc311287b67f3 *ftd2xx.h a794957c0b8f0f45bd8354ea2ec24cfc *ftd2xx.lib 5af2d10adde696d213c0bfa625676a2b *libSimpleLinkStudio.a b25a2c7dec1280536884710b4d3aea19 *SimpleLinkStudio.lib 0824dcf6e3fa4dc93fa9207ac7e7b5f7 *slosi.h 16ffbcabc13e49f75a8f175d3297e0d1 *slstudio.h 7345fa5c3a4ec2af32bb24c1bc8bb4d4 *user.h
I had break while developing, and now want to move to the last CC3100SDK 1.3.0 before continuing. I've found out that there is no samples with SimpleLink Studio as it is described in CC3100 Getting Started Guide. Also a lot of links lead to the SDK 1.3.0 for getting the last Service Pack, but I can not find any on the page and inside SDK.
While resolving this I've found that now SimpleLink Studio has been moved to the separate page, but for CC3100 the page suggests me to download CC3100SDK 0.5.1. This SDK looks more close to that I used, but with driver version "0.0.5.1".
Currently, I've just copied files of SimpleLink Driver "1.0.1.11". I have not updated the SimpleLink Studio files. In general overview examples are working. But I've faced with undocumented behavior and firstly I wants ensure that my device/software configuration is vanilla.
Questions:
1. Is there compatibility table\notes with SimpleLink Driver version, SimpleLink Studio, version, CC3100-version and appropriate service pack? At least the official latest versions.
2. Where is the latest service pack for CC3100 for latest SimpleLink driver from CC3100SDK 1.3.0?
Definitions (to ensure that I undersand right):
SimpleLink (a.k.a SimpleLink Driver) - the driver for controlling CC3100 by SPI interface. Its hardware-independent code is placed C:\TI\CC3100SDK_1.3.0\cc3100-sdk\simplelink
SimpleLink Studio - the porting of SimpleLink Driver on Windows OS (I've worked with windows 7/8/10) to test examples with CC3100BOOST+CC31XXEMUBOOST+(PC as MCU) configuration.
Service Pack - CC3100 firmware. Closed TI binary, updating with UniFlash 3.4 (for CC3100)
Details:
Hardware: CC31XXEMUBOOST Rev 3.0, CC3100BOOST Rev 4.0 with CC3100R1
Output of sl_DevGet:
CHIP 67108864 MAC 31.1.5.0.2 PHY 1.0.3.37 NWP 2.10.0.0 ROM 13107 HOST 1.0.1.11
Get Versoion operation output from UniFlash 3.4 (I guess I'm doing somehing wrong here):
There are COM ports 4,5,6,7. I've used 7, and result was only if I press the RST button while process operation:
