Product Description
The CC2400 is a true single-chip 2.4 GHz
RF transceiver designed for low-power
and low-voltage wireless applications. The
RF transceiver is integrated with a
baseband modem supporting data rates
up to 1 Mbps.
The CC2400 is a low-cost, highly integrated
solution enabling robust wireless
communication in the 2.4 - 2.4835 GHz
unlicensed ISM band. It is intended for
systems compliant with world-wide
regulations covered by EN 300 440
(Europe), CFR47 Part 15 (US) and ARIB
STD-T66 (Japan).
Targeting a wide range of applications at
2.4 GHz, the CC2400 supports over-the-air
data rates of 10 kbps, 250 kbps and
1 Mbps without requiring any modifications
to the hardware.
The CC2400 provides extensive hardware
support for packet handling, data
buffering, burst transmissions, data coding
and error detection reducing the workload
on the host microcontroller.
The main operating parameters of CC2400
can be programmed via an SPI-bus. In a
typical system CC2400 will be used
together with a microcontroller and a few
external, passive components.
CC2400 is based on Chipcon’s SmartRF®-
03 technology in 0.18 μm CMOS.
