Release Infomation
Sensor Controller Studio is used to write, test and debug code for the CC26xx/CC13xx Sensor Controller, allowing for ultra-low power application design.
The tool generates a Sensor Controller Interface driver, which is a set of C source files to be compiled into the System CPU (ARM Cortex-M3/M4) application. These source files contain the Sensor Controller firmware image and associated definitions, and generic functions that allow the System CPU application to control the Sensor Controller and exchange data.
The Sensor Controller is a small CPU core that is highly optimized for low power consumption and efficient peripheral operation. The Sensor Controller is located in the CC26xx/CC13xx auxiliary (AUX) power/clock domain, and can perform simple background tasks autonomously and independently of the System CPU and the MCU domain power state. Such tasks include but are not limited to:
- Analog sensor polling, using ADC or comparator
- Digital sensor polling, using SPI, I2C or other protocols
- Capacitive sensing, using current source, comparator and time-to-digital converter (TDC)
- Waveform generation, for example for LCDs
The Sensor Controller is user programmable, using a simple programming language with syntax similar to C. This allows for sensor polling and other tasks to be specified as sequential algorithms, rather than static configuration of complex peripheral modules, timers, DMA, register programmable state machines, event routing and so on. The main advantages are:
- Flexibility
- Dynamic reuse of hardware resources
- Ability to perform simple data processing without need for dedicated hardware
- Observability and debugging options
What's new
- Added support for new devices: CC2672R3, CC2672P3, CC2662R-Q1, CC2652PSIP and CC2652P7.
- Added example support for new SDKs, using TI-RTOS 7 and GPIO driver for the latest CC13x2/CC26x2 SDK.
- Minor improvements.
- Bug-fixes.

Release Infomation
SmartRF™ Studio is a Windows application that can be used to evaluate and configure Low Power RF devices from Texas Instruments. The application helps designers of RF systems to easily evaluate the radio at an early stage in the design process. It is especially useful for generation of configuration register values and commands, and for practical testing and debugging of the RF system. SmartRF Studio can be used either as a standalone application or together with applicable evaluation boards or debug probes for the RF device.
What's new
- Added support for new devices: CC2653P10, CC2662R-Q1, CC2642R-Q1 and CC2651RSIPA
- New RF PHY settings for the CC1354x10 devices
- Updated TX Output power values for the CC13x4, CC26x4 and the CC2652PSIP devices
- Various improvements and bug-fixes
