SimpliciTI Compliant Protocol Stack Status: ACTIVE

Product Information

Description

SimpliciTI is a simple low-power RF network protocol aimed at small RF networks. Such networks typically contain battery operated devices which require long battery life, low data rate and low duty cycle and have a limited number of nodes talking directly to each other or through an access point or range extenders. Access point and range extenders are not required but provide extra functionality such as store and forward messages. With SimpliciTI the MCU resource requirements are minimal which results in the low system cost.

SimpliciTI was designed for easy implementation and deployment out-of-the-box on several TI RF platforms such as the MSP430 family of low-power MCUs and the CC1XXX/CC25XX transceivers and SoCs. The sample applications run out-of-the-box on several hardware platforms:

• SmartRF04 + CC2430EM Development Board
• SmartRF05 + MSP430F2618 + CC2520EM Development Board
• MSP430FG4618/F2013 Experimenter Board with CC1100EM, CC1101EM or CC2500EM
• eZ430-RF2500 Development Tool
• CC1110-CC1111DK and CC2510-CC2511DK

Check out the TI Packet Sniffer for SimpliciTI below

The packet sniffer runs on CC2510DK/CC1110DK and can visualize the traffic on air in real-time.

The Sensor Network Analyzer from Daintree has been enhanced to provide decode and analysis support for SimpliciTI.

Compatibility Issues

Tools:

SimpliciTI is supplied as full source code and the supplied projects can be compiled using the CCE and IAR EW430 for MSP430 or EW8051 for 8051 SoCs. Evaluation versions of the IAR compilers can be downloaded from www.iar.com. Small applications can be built using the free evaluation version. Please contact your local IAR office for further details.

30-day evaluation license for the Sensor Network Analyzer from Daintree available to new users.

In order to use the Daintree Sensor Network Analyzer (SNA) software, a packet sniffer compliant hardware module is needed. The SNA software works with hardware included in the CC2520DK, CC2430(Z)DK, CC2431(Z)DK, and CC2530(Z)DK.
