SimpleLink™ CC13x2_26x2 SDK 3.10.00.53 Release Notes
Table of Contents
Introduction
The SimpleLink™ CC13x2 and CC26x2 Software Development Kit (SDK) delivers components that enable engineers to develop applications on the Texas Instruments SimpleLink CC13x2 and CC26x2 family of wireless microcontrollers (MCUs). This software toolkit provides a cohesive and consistent software experience for all SimpleLink CC13x2 and CC26x2 wireless MCU users by packaging essential software components, such as a Bluetooth® Low Energy (BLE) protocol stack supporting Bluetooth 5, Thread 1.1 networking stack based on OpenThread, Zigbee 3.0 compliant protocol suite, RF-Proprietary examples, TI’s 15.4 Stack as well as the TI-RTOS kernel and TI Drivers in one easy-to-use software package along with example applications and documentation. In addition, the Dynamic Multi-Protocol Manager (DMM) software component enables multiprotocol development on a single SimpleLink wireless MCU through time division multiplexing.
The SimpleLink MCU portfolio offers a single development environment that delivers flexible hardware, software and tool options for customers developing wired and wireless applications. With 100 percent code reuse across host MCUs, Wi-Fi™, Bluetooth Low Energy, Sub-1GHz devices and more, choose the MCU or connectivity standard that fits your design. A one-time investment with the SimpleLink software development kit allows you to reuse often, opening the door to create unlimited applications. For more information, visit www.ti.com/simplelink.
This is version 3.10.00.53 of the SimpleLink CC13x2 / CC26x2 SDK. This is the first production ready version of the software for the CC1312R, CC1352R, CC2642R and CC2652R devices.

Dependencies
SimpleLink CC13x2 / CC26x2 SDK 3.10.00.53 was built & tested on a Windows host platform using the following Integrated Development Environments (IDEs) and components. Using an IDE or toolchain version not listed below may result in compatibility issues with this SDK release. Refer to the individual component release notes in the Document Overview for each component’s supported code generation tools.
- IAR Embedded Workbench: EWARM-8.32.2
- TI Code Composer Studio: CCS-9.0.0.00013
- TI Code Generation Tools for Arm: 18.12.1.LTS
- XDCTools: 3.51.02.21
- SysConfig Standalone tool for IAR IDE: 1.0.655
Device Support
This SDK supports the following SimpleLink CC13x2 and CC26x2 wireless MCUs with silicon revision E:
Development Board Support
Please see the LaunchPad User Manual for more information on using the individual LaunchPads:
Known Issues
- When using the 32 kHz oscillator (LF XOSC) with CC1352P1 LaunchPads rev. B the maximum output power is limited to 17 dBm.
- For the LAUNCHXL-CC1352R1 and LAUNCHXL-CC1352P boards, the bias mode configuration for the BLE and IEEE 802.15.4 typical settings does not match the RF design used for rev. B. Per default the bias mode is set to “internal bias” while it should have been “external bias”. To change the bias mode the value of the bias mode field in the radio setup command must be changed: .config.biasMode = 1
The following radio setup commands are used:
CC1352R
* BLE: CMD_BLE5_RADIO_SETUP.config.biasMode = 1
* IEEE 802.15.4: CMD_RADIO_SETUP.config.biasMode = 1
CC1352P
* BLE: CMD_BLE5_RADIO_SETUP_PA.config.biasMode = 1
* IEEE 802.15.4: CMD_RADIO_SETUP_PA.config.biasMode = 1
- For all SDK components, the importing of IAR projects through dev.ti.com is currently unsupported
- Refer to the Document Overview for known issues and limitations as published in each SDK component’s release notes
