15.4 Device Architecture

Simplelink devices can be used in different architectures. They can act as stand-alone device. In this architecture, the application and the protocol stack are running on the SimpleLink devices as single chip solution.

This reduces the cost of the system, but it is limited in performance and memory utilization metrics. The standalone architecture can be tested with the Sensor and Collector example provided in the Simplelink SDK.

An alternative architecture that can be used, is the coprocessor in which the Simplelink devices are used to run only the protocol stack. In this mode the NPI over a UART connection can be used to communicate to a dedicated application processor using the API-interface. A more detailed description of this interface can be found within the TI-15.4-Stack CoP Interface guide. The Coprocessor mode can be tested using the TI 15.4-Stack- Linux Gateway Project Zero example in the SimpleLink academy.

The difference between these architectures are shown in Figure 4-1.
