The
CC3120MOD
module
BoosterPack
can
be
used
in
several
ways.
It
can
be
connected
to
a
Texas
Instruments™
MCU
Launchpad™
development
kit
(software
examples
provided
for
MSP
‐
EXP430F5529LP).
It
can
also
be
plugged
into
a
CC31XXEMUBOOST
board
and
connected
to
a
PC
for
MCU
emulation.
Finally,
the
device
can
be
connected
onto
an
adapter
board
(BOOST
‐
CCEMADAPTER),
allowing
customers
to
use
the
BOOSTXL
‐
CC3120MOD
device
with
additional
platforms
beyond
TI
Launchpad
kits.
Note:
The
CC31XXEMUBOOST
device
is
an
advanced
emulation
board
that
is
required
for
flashing
the
BOOSTXL
‐
CC3120MOD,
using
the
radio
tool
(radio
performance
testing
or
putting
into
certification
modules),
capturing
network
processor
logs,
and
using
SL
studio.
This
kit
comes
in
three
configurations:
BOOSTXL
‐
CC3120MOD
which
contains
the
following:
o
One

7.1
Power
The
board
is
designed
to
accept
power
from
a
connected
LaunchPad
kit
or
through
the
CC31XXEMUBOOST
board.
Some
of
the
LaunchPad
kits
are
not
capable
of
sourcing
the
peak
current
requirements
of
Wi
‐
Fi,
which
may
be
as
high
as
400
mA.
If
the
LaunchPad
kit
cannot
source
the
peak
current
requirements
of
Wi
‐
Fi,
the
USB
connector
on
the
BOOSTXL
‐
CC3120RM
can
be
used
to
aid
the
peak
current.
The
use
of
Schottky
diodes
ensures
that
the
load
sharing
happens
between
the
USB
connectors
on
the
LaunchPad
kit
and
the
BoosterPack
module
without
any
board
modifications.
Also,
the
3.3
‐
V
power
can
be
sourced
from
the
LaunchPad
kit
or
from
the
3.3
‐
V
LDO
on
the
board.
This
sourcing
is
completed
by
using
jumper
J8.
If
the
LaunchPad
kit
is
not
able
to
source
the
3.3
V
up
to
350
mA,
then
J8
must
be
configured
to
work
from
the
onboard
LDO.
7.1.1
Power
from
the
LaunchPad
kit
or
the
CC31XXEMUBOOST
In
this
case,
the
LaunchPad
kit
provides
3.3
V
to
the
BoosterPack
module
for
its
operation
(see
Figure
7
‐
1).
In
addition
to
the
3.3
V,
some
LaunchPad
kits
provide
5
V
from
the
USB
(see
Figure
7
‐
2),
which
is
used
to
drive
a
3.3
‐
V
LDO
on
the
BoosterPack
module.
If
the
LaunchPad
kit
is
not
able
to
provide
the
5
V
(for
