The CC11xLDK-868-915 development kit provides a complete hardware performance testing and software development platform for TI´s Sub-1 GHz Value Line. The development kit comes with a pre-programmed packet error rate test. RF range and robustness can be tested with different RF settings, and powerconsumption can be measured easily. This kit supports 868MHz and 915MHz. An extra Evaluation Module Kit (CC11XLEMK-433) is needed to evaluate 433MHz.

The TrxEB, Transceiver Evaluation Board, contains an MSP430 and the following peripherals for prototyping applications:

• MSP430F5438 MCU
• USB interface
• Dot matrix LCD 128 x 64
• 3 axis digital accelerometer
• Light sensor

Example code for using these peripherals is part of the software examples. For application development, SmartRF Studio is used to generate RF settings and IAR or CCS can be used for programming the MSP430F548.
