1 Introduction
The SimpleLink ™ MCU portfolio offers a single development environment that delivers flexible hardware,
software, and tool options for customers developing wired and wireless applications. With an ultimate goal of 100
percent code reuse across host MCUs, Wi-Fi
® , Bluetooth ® low energy, Sub-1 GHz devices, and more, choose
the MCU or connectivity standard that fits your design. A one-time investment with the SimpleLink™ software
development kit (SDK) lets you reuse often, opening the door to create unlimited applications. For more
information, visit

The main use of the Radio Tool is to serve as a control panel for direct access to the radio. The tool can be used
for the radio frequency (RF) evaluation, and for certification purposes (such as FCC, ETSI, Telec, and so on).
The tool is expected to work seamlessly on TI evaluation platforms: BoosterPack plus FTDI emulation board for
CC31xx devices, and LaunchPad for CC32xx devices. If customers want to use the tool on their final platform,
see
Section 11 . The I/O levels of these lines should be kept at VBAT level (the same voltage that powers the
CC31xx and CC32xx devices).
For reference RF numbers, refer to the device datasheets.
