cc2530 binary compatible on cc2531?

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CC2531, CC2530

I have a CC2531 board bought from a third party vendor. It doesn't have a USB port populated on it, so I plan to use the other ports. Can I run binaries built for CC2530 on the CC2531? I understand the main difference is the presence of USB on cc2531, but is everything else identical?

  • Yes, this should usually work fine. Out of reset, the USB on CC2531 is turned off, and a binary for CC2530 would obviously not try to turn it on. When the USB controller is turned off, the CC2531 behaves identically to CC2530.

    Note however that if the programs contains a check of chip ID, it might fail as the CC2530 and Cc2531 have different chip ID.
