CC2430 Datasheet, PDF (9/212 Pages) Texas Instruments – A True System-on-Chip solution for 2.4 GHz IEEE 802.15.4 / ZigBee-TM

4 Features Emphasized
4.1 High-Performance and Low-Power
8051-Compatible Microcontroller
• Optimized 8051 core, which typically
gives 8x the performance of a standard
8051
• Dual data pointers
• In-circuit interactive debugging is
supported for the IAR Embedded
Workbench through a simple two-wire
serial interface
4.2 Up to 128 KB Non-volatile Program
Memory and 2 x 4 KB Data Memory
• 32/64/128 KB of non-volatile flash
memory in-system programmable
through a simple two-wire interface or by
the 8051 core
• Worst-case flash memory endurance:
1000 write/erase cycles
• Programmable read and write lock of
portions of Flash memory for software
security
• 4096 bytes of internal SRAM with data
retention in all power modes
• Additional 4096 bytes of internal SRAM
with data retention in power modes 0
and 1
4.3 Hardware AES Encryption/Decryption
• AES supported in hardware coprocessor
4.4 Peripheral Features
• Powerful DMA Controller
• Power On Reset/Brown-Out Detection
• Eight channel ADC with configurable
resolution
• Programmable watchdog timer
• Real time clock with 32.768 kHz crystal
oscillator
• Four timers: one general 16-bit timer,
two general 8-bit timers, one MAC timer
• Two programmable USARTs for
master/slave SPI or UART operation
• 21 configurable general-purpose digital
I/O-pins
• True random number generator
CC2430
4.5 Low Power
• Four flexible power modes for reduced
power consumption
• System can wake up on external
interrupt or real-time counter event
• Low-power fully static CMOS design
• System clock source can be 16 MHz RC
oscillator or 32 MHz crystal oscillator.
The 32 MHz oscillator is used when
radio is active
• Optional clock source for ultra-low power
operation can be either low-power RC
oscillator or an optional 32.768 kHz
crystal oscillator
4.6 IEEE 802.15.4 MAC hardware support
• Automatic preamble generator
• Synchronization word insertion/detection
• CRC-16 computation and checking over
the MAC payload
• Clear Channel Assessment
• Energy detection / digital RSSI
• Link Quality Indication
• CSMA/CA Coprocessor
4.7 Integrated 2.4GHz DSSS Digital Radio
• 2.4 GHz IEEE 802.15.4 compliant RF
transceiver (based on industry leading
CC2420 radio core).
• Excellent receiver sensitivity and
robustness to interferers
• 250 kbps data rate, 2 MChip/s chip rate
• Reference designs comply with
worldwide radio frequency regulations
covered by ETSI EN 300 328 and EN
300 440 class 2 (Europe), FCC CFR47
Part 15 (US) and ARIB STD-T66
(Japan). Transmit on 2480MHz under
FCC is supported by duty-cycling, or by
reducing output power.
