Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CC2530, CC2531, Z-STACK
1.)Antennas for CC2530 - For antenna we want a readymade solution as far as possible. We want to reduce the efforts on designing or tuning the antenna.
We have a complete list for antennas given on TI website that support the CC2530 model. If we purchase an evaluation kit for 300$ what extra efforts/work we have to do on hardware and firmware for designing/tuning the antenna? (Tuning registers are given in the data sheet of CC2530)
2.)What are the complexities in integrating Beagle bone black with CC2530 in hardware and software (For software we are specifically considering the ZNP stack)
3.)What exactly do you mean by fast prototyping of CC2530 with Beagle Bone Black?
4.)All the schematics and eagles are given for CC2530 module, sniffer etc. on TI website. Can we develop our own modules for the same as far as we are using controllers and ICs from TI?
Role of CC2531-linux gateway on TI website is given as a kit of Beagle Bone Black and CC2531 sniffer (On TI forum we have observed that ZNP stack and HA profiles are compatible with CC2531 only, not with CC2530)
Rather we want to design a gateway of CC2530 + Beagle Bone Black (TI forum link)
A CC2531 sniffer USB dongle be used for CC2530 + Beagle Bone Black. How it should be exactly configured in conjugation with SMARTRF05 board?
5.)Can this SMARTRF05 board be used as a programmer for CC2530 and sniffer as well? It also facilitates some debugging activities for wireless routing using sniffer. In what other ways a SMARTRF05 board can be utilised?
6.)Can you suggest any trivial way to design slaves for Home Automation? (TI APIs for HA must be assuming some trivial slaves and designs for the given Linux gateway on TI website)
7.)Does t.i provide any Z stack support (Stack, Tools etc.) for Linux as well as Windows? (You already provide for Linux so the question is whether it is for Windows?)
8.)Do you suggest that Z stack should be ported on Processor so that capabilities of the processor should be exploited? How about Z-stack on controller?
If we use Windows for development and want to port the Z stack on controller. What are the pros and cons of doing this thing? (i.e. porting Z-stack on controller and using Windows for development)
