MCU Resource Requirements
The MCU requires an external reference clock with allowed values from 13 MHz to 26 MHz.
Besides the memory resources, the SMAC uses the MACA module and thus all radio portions of the
MC1322x device. Depending on the demonstration, other resources are used such as the ADC, KBI, GPIO,
Timers and others.

Introducing BeeKit
The Freescale BeeKit Wireless Connectivity Toolkit is a comprehensive Codebase of wireless networking
libraries, application templates, and sample applications. The BeeKit Graphical User Interface (GUI), part
of the BeeKit Wireless Connectivity Toolkit, allows users to create, modify, and update various wireless
networking implementations.
The MC1322x SMAC is released in an independent Codebase that is part of the Freescale BeeKit Wireless
Connectivity Toolkit. To create a project for the MC1322x SMAC, users must employ the BeeKit
Codebase that contains the MC1322x SMAC code. For more information on BeeKit, refer to the
BeeKit
Wireless Connectivity Toolkit User’s Guide
(BKWCTKUG).
For more information on the Codebase as it applies to MC1322x SMAC, refer to the
MC1322x SMAC

BeeKit Concepts
This section highlights some basic BeeKit terms and concepts. Again, for a more detailed description of
BeeKit, refer to the
BeeKit Wireless Connectivity Toolkit User’s Guide
(BKWCTKUG).
Codebase
A group of source files, configuration files, and generation rules that serve as a
repository from which all BeeKit demos, templates, and other applications are
generated.
Solution
A group of projects which are linked to a specific folder within the file structure
of the computer and in this file structure, all other projects will generate their own
folders.
BeeKit Project
A specific group of files in a directory tree that BeeKit can export for the
developer. An XML Project File in the tree describes the content and organization
of the project..
XML Project File
A BeeKit generated XML file ready to import into CodeWarrior or IAR´s
Embedded Workbench IDE.
Figure 1-1
shows the folder structure of a typical project generated using MC1322x SMAC Codebase for
BeeKit.
