CC2530: Operate at sub-1 Ghz

Manmohan M

Part Number: CC2530
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: CC1310, CC1312R, Z-STACK

Hi, i am currently using cc2530 along with Zstack in the frequency range of 2.4 GHz,

I would want to operate in the free band (India) of 865 Mhz - 867 Mhz,

In the stack it is observed that there is a channel available for 868 Mhz (channel-0) ,

it possible to operate at 865 Mhz - 867 Mhz on cc2530 with modification in stack and hardware ?

If not what are the options available ?

Thanks,

Manmohan

CC2530 cannot support sub GHz. For sub GHz application, you have to use CC1310 or CC1312R.

Hello Yikai,

Does CC1310 or CC1312R support Zstack? Our requirement is Mesh network and operating frequency particularly in 865 Mhz to 867 Mhz.

Z-Stack doesn't support sub Ghz band. The only existing solution for sub GHz mesh is Contiki 6lowPAN which can run on CC1310 and CC1312R.
