1.3 Description
The TI CC256x device is a complete Bluetooth BR/EDR/LE HCI solution that reduces design effort and
enables fast time to market. Based on TI’s seventh-generation Bluetooth core, the CC256x device
provides a product-proven solution that supports Bluetooth 4.0 dual-mode (BR/EDR/LE) protocols. When
coupled with a microcontroller unit (MCU), the HCI device provides best-in-class RF performance.
TI’s power-management hardware and software algorithms provide significant power savings in all
commonly used Bluetooth BR/EDR/LE modes of operation.
With transmit power and receive sensitivity, this solution provides a best-in-class range of about 2x,
compared to other BLE-only solutions. A royalty-free software Bluetooth stack available from TI is pre-
integrated with TI's MSP430 and ARM Cortex-M3 and Cortex-M4 MCUs. The stack is also available for
made for iPod® (MFi) solutions and on other MCUs through TI's partner Stonestreet One
(www.stonestreetone.com). Some of the profiles supported today include: serial port profile (SPP),
advanced audio distribution profile (A2DP), human interface device (HID), and several BLE profiles (these
profiles vary based on the supported MCU).
In addition to software, this solution consists of multiple reference designs with a low BOM cost, including
a new Bluetooth audio sink reference design for customers to create a variety of applications for low-end,
low-power audio solutions. For more information on TI’s wireless platform solutions for Bluetooth, see TI's
Wireless Connectivity Wiki (processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/CC256x).
