CC2543 and CC2544 CC2545 development

The current development kits in the cc254x series described here are cc2543-cc2544dk, cc2545EMK and cc2541EMK. The Evaluation Module Kit (EMK) is a supplement to the C2543-cc2544DK, because they are only composed of two separate evaluation modules (EMs).

The cc2543, cc2544 and cc2545 devices are RFSOC designated for the proprietary 2.4GHz RF market, which can be used in any application, but are suitable for wireless HID applications. The C2544 is designed for the peripheral devices of cc2543, such as wireless mouse application and cc2545 wireless keyboard application, in the USB East Zone.

Single-chip RF transceiver and MCU support data rate up to 2MbPS, and have a wide range of baseband automation, including automatic confirmation and address decoding. It provides excellent link budget and programmable output power of up to 5dBm, which makes the long range without external front-end.

The cc2543, cc2544 and cc2545 devices adopt dual-channel DMA, which reduces the need for MCU to work in active mode, thus greatly improving power consumption. In addition, they have a 16-bit and two 8-bit timers and a 20mA drive strength at the selected universal I/O pin. They also have a link layer engine used by a 40-bit wireless timer.
