10 Application, Implementation, and Layout
Note
Information in the following applications sections is not part of the TI component specification, and TI
does not warrant its accuracy or completeness. TI’s customers are responsible for determining
suitability of components for their purposes, as well as validating and testing their design
implementation to confirm system functionality.
For general design guidelines and hardware configuration guidelines, refer to the
Configuration and PCB Design Considerations Application Report

10.1 Reference Designs
The following reference designs should be followed closely when implementing designs using the CC2652RB
device.
Special attention must be paid to RF component placement, decoupling capacitors and DCDC regulator
components, as well as ground connections for all of these.
Integrated matched filter-balun devices can be used both at sub-1 GHz frequencies and at 2.4 GHz for the low-
power RF outputs. Refer to the "Integrated Passive Component" section in
Configuration and PCB Design Considerations
The CC26x2RBEM-7ID reference design provides schematic, layout and
production files for the characterization board used for deriving the
performance number found in this document.
