Table of Contents
Introduction
SimpleLink™ CC2640R2 Software Development Kit (SDK) delivers components that enable engineers to develop applications on Texas Instruments SimpleLink Bluetooth® low energy CC2640R2F wireless MCU. This powerful software toolkit provides a cohesive and consistent software experience for all SimpleLink CC2640R2 users by packaging essential software components such as the BLE-Stack, integrated real-time localization system (RTLS), TI-RTOS and peripheral drivers in one easy-to-use software package along with exhaustive documentation.
This is version 2_40_00_32 of the SimpleLink CC2640R2 SDK.
Documentation
Refer to the Documentation Overview below for developing Bluetooth low energy and other MCU applications with this SDK.
What’s New
Bluetooth 4.2 (BLE-Stack)
- The TI BLE-stack now supports unlimited scan reporting to the application. Previous SDKs required an upper bound on the number of scanned (discovered) devices.
Real-time localization system (RTLS)
- Time of Flight (ToF) security module generates a random seed used for ToF sync words.
- RTLS Node Manager is a project that coordinates multiple nodes before sending the data to the GUI.
- Angle of Arrival (AoA) and ToF examples now support external control via serial interface (uNPI).
Refer to the Document Overview for the individual release notes and details for starting development with each SDK component
