The EB+EM can be of great help during the whole development cycle for a new RF product. 
 

- 

Perform  comparative  studies.  Compare  results  obtained  with  EB+EM  with  results  from 
your own system. 

- 

Perform  basic  functional  tests  of  your  own  hardware  by  connecting  the  radio  on  your 
board to SmartRF06EB. SmartRF Studio can be used to exercise the radio. 

- 

Verify your own software with known good RF hardware, by simply connecting your own 
microcontroller to an EM via the EB. Test the send function by transmitting packets from 
your  SW  and  receive  with  another  board  using  SmartRF  Studio.  Then  transmit  using 
SmartRF Studio and receive with your own software. 

- 

Develop code for your SoC and use the SmartRF06EB as a standalone board without PC 
tools.  

 
The SmartRF06EB can also be used as a debugger  interface to the  SoCs from IAR  Embedded 
workbench for ARM or Code Composer Studio from Texas Instruments. For details on how to use 
the SmartRF06EB to debug external targets, see chapter 7. 
 

5.1  Absolute Maximum Ratings 

The  minimum  and  maximum  operating  supply  voltages  and  absolute  maximum  ratings  for  the 
active  components  onboard  the  SmartRF06EB  are  summarized  in  Table  2.  Table  3  lists  the 
recommended  operating  temperature  and  storage  temperature  ratings.  Please  refer  to  the 
respective component’s datasheet for further details.
