CC2541 Evaluation Module Kit Texas Instruments CC2541EMK
The CC2541 Evaluation Module Kit contains two CC2541 Bluetooth low energy Evaluation Modules, which can be used either as standalone modules (requires a power source and a simple carrier board like the SoC Battery Board) or connected to e.g.
Detailed Description
the SmartRF05EB Evaluation Boards (included in the CC2540DK) for full control from the PC.
The CC2541 is a power-optimized true system-on-chip (SoC) solution for both low energy and proprietary 2.4-GHz applications. It enables robust network nodes to be built with low total bill-of-material costs. The CC2541 combines the excellent performance of a leading RF transceiver with an industry-standard enhanced 8051 MCU, in-system programmable flash memory, 8-KB RAM, and many other powerful supporting features and peripherals. The CC2541 is highly suited for systems where ultralow power consumption is required. This is specified by various operating modes. Short transition times between operating modes further enable low power consumption.
The evaluation modules can be used as a reference board for prototyping and for verifying the performance of the CC2541 RF IC.
