5.3 Using the hardware
The hardware in the kit can be used in two different modes. Either connect the CC2520EM
directly to the SmartRF05EB (Figure 7) or connect the EM to the CCMSP-EM and then
connect this assembly to the EB (Figure 8).
Figure 7 - CC2520EM and SmartRF05EB
The first option (Figure 7) should be used when the RF Module is controlled by SmartRF
Studio via the USB controller on SmartRF05EB. It is also possible to implement software
running on the microcontroller (CC2511) on SmartRF05EB to control the EM directly.
Figure 8 - EB with EM and MCU board
The second case (Figure 8) can be used when the RF module is to be controlled by the
MSP430 on the CCMSP-EM430F2618 board.
