Wi-Fi® design & development
Design your product with our innovative and affordable Wi-Fi and BLE combo solutions
Software
Our CC33xx and CC35xxE families of ICs work with MPUs running Linux or MCUs running RTOS. Our companion ICs are designed for complex systems while our wireless MCUs are optimized for real-time applications.
Linux is a free, open-source OS ideal for complex systems due to its flexibility and capabilities. However, it requires higher memory and processing power.
RTOS is designed for real-time applications where predictability and timing are critical. It's deterministic, lightweight, and optimized for resource-constrained environments.
Our wireless MCU family provides an integrated solution with a built-in MCU, allowing direct application execution on the chip
TI SimpleLink Wi-Fi and Bluetooth® Low Energy (LE) companion ICs are designed to integrate with any host processor running embedded Linux. The CC33xx Linux driver works with Linux open-source components to enable Wi-Fi functionality and supports an HCI interface for easy integration with an external Bluetooth LE host stack, such as BlueZ.
Our companion ICs include a fully embedded Wi-Fi stack, making it easy to add Wi-Fi and Bluetooth LE to any 32-bit MCU. TI provides an RTOS driver, its companion ICs and reference integrations for multiple host platforms. TI’s driver integrates with common open-source networking and BLE stacks on the host, such as the Lightweight IP (LwIP) stack, MbedTLS, and the NimBLE BLE host stack, to establish a full Wi-Fi & BLuetooth LE solution.
The TI SimpleLink CC35xx family of devices are powerful all-in-one Cortex-M33 based MCUs with integrated Wi-Fi 6 and BLE 5.4. TI delivers a comprehensive SDK for the CC35xx devices including FreeRTOS, Wi-Fi and networking stacks, a pre-certified BLE stack, standard TI peripheral drivers, and example applications.
Development tools
SimpleLink Wi-Fi Toolbox
The Wi-Fi toolbox package provides all the capabilities required to debug and monitor WLAN/Bluetooth® Low Energy firmware with a host, perform RF validation tests, run pretest for regulatory certification testing, and debug hardware and software platform integration issues.
SimpleLink Connect mobile app
The SimpleLink Connect mobile app is an example Bluetooth® Low Energy application for mobile devices that works with:
- CC23XX devices running the SIMPLELINK-LOWPOWER-SDK
- CC33xx devices attached to a host running the CC33XX-SOFTWARE
The app provides a baseline for users to quickly build their (...)
Hardware
The CC33xx pairs seamlessly with TI processors, enabling rapid Linux Wi-Fi & BLE development.
The M2-CC3351 is an M.2 Card plug-in evaluation module that connects to any processor via an M.2 Type 2230 Key E slot for test and development.
The BP-CC3351 BoosterPack connect to TI LaunchPad boards, providing easy integration for Wi-Fi and BLE feature testing and performance evaluation
Pair the CC33xx device with an MCU host to create powerful, embedded IoT products. Leverage the modular LaunchPad ecosystem that gives you flexibility to connect the CC33xx to the TI MCU host of your choice, such as the AM243x.
