TI offers an extensive line of development tools, including tools to evaluate the performance of the processors, generate code, develop algorithm implementations, and fully integrate and debug software and hardware modules.
The following products support development of the CC2640R2F device applications:
Software Tools:
SmartRF Studio 7 is a PC application that helps designers of radio systems to easily evaluate the RF-IC at an early stage in the design process.
- Test functions for sending and receiving radio packets, continuous wave transmit and receive
- Evaluate RF performance on custom boards by wiring it to a supported evaluation board or debugger
- Can also be used without any hardware, but then only to generate, edit and export radio configuration settings
- Can be used in combination with several development kits for Texas Instruments’ CCxxxx RF-ICs
Sensor Controller Studio provides a development environment for the CC26xx Sensor Controller. The Sensor Controller is a proprietary, power-optimized CPU in the CC26xx, which can perform simple background tasks autonomously and independent of the System CPU state.
- Allows for Sensor Controller task algorithms to be implemented using a C-like programming language
- Outputs a Sensor Controller Interface driver, which incorporates the generated Sensor Controller machine code and associated definitions
- Allows for rapid development by using the integrated Sensor Controller task testing and debugging functionality. This allows for live visualization of sensor data and algorithm verification.
