Microcontrollers from TI for single chip RF solutions

TI introduces the CC430F513x microcontrollers (MCUs) supported by a rich developer ecosystem, offering complete, scalable hardware and software for single-chip radio frequency (RF) solutions.

The MCUs combine a low power MSP430 MCU with the high performance, sub-1GHz CC1101 RF transceiver. They offer up to 20 MIPS performance in a small package (7mm x 7mm) and support security options such as an integrated AES hardware module. The MSP430 MCU core and CC1101 RF transceiver combined on a single chip reduce system complexity and reduce size by up to 50%.

TI has also developed the CC430F61xx series of devices. It has the capability to support multiple protocols and a broad frequency range. It finds application in home and building automation, smart metering, energy harvesting, asset tracking and portable medical applications.

To meet various design needs eight devices in the new family offer non-LCD (CC430F513x) and LCD (CC430F61xx) options by providing a range of pin count, memory and high-performance analog integration.

Devices draw low enough current to enable battery-operated wireless networking applications that operate without servicing for several years, reducing maintenance costs and overall BOM eZ430-Chronos and EM430F6137RF900 are complete wireless development kits that provide all the hardware and software support necessary to instantly develop and deploy projects.

Price:
CC430F513x MCUs priced at US$4.15 for 1K units.
CC430F61xx priced at US$4.35 for 1K units.

Availability: Now.
