SimpleLink SDK TI 15.4 Stack Plugin Release Notes
Table of Contents
Introduction
The SimpleLink™ SDK TI 15.4 Stack Plugin is a companion software package that enables the use of a SimpleLink CC1310 Sub-1Ghz radio running the TI 802.15.4 stack on a standard SimpleLink MCU platform including the MSP432P4, MSP432E4, and CC3220 families. By having the ability to seamlessly and modularly add TI 15.4 stack functionality to an embedded system, a programmer can enable their embedded device to become a gateway to IoT connectivity.
The Sub-1Ghz MAC CoProcessor subsystem features a Sub-1Ghz System-on-a-Chip and contains an additional dedicated ARM Cortex-M3 MCU that completely offloads the host MCU. This subsystem includes an Sub-1GHz radio, baseband, and MAC.
This is version 2_20_00_05 of the SimpleLink SDK TI 15.4 Stack Plugin.
