The SimpleLink™ CC2650 evaluation module kit is an add-on kit for the SMARTRF06EBK evaluation board kit. The CC2650 device included in this kit is the superset device of the SimpleLink ultra-low power wireless MCU platform, so it can also be used to evaluate the SimpleLink Bluetooth® Smart CC2640 wireless MCU and the 6LoWPAN/ZigBee® CC2630 wireless MCU. The kit includes two CC2650 evaluation modules and a getting started guide.
The CC2650EMK-7ID evaluation module contains the wireless MCU and shows a variant of the RF layout using the 7x7 mm package, internal bias and differential RF output (variant 7ID).
The CC2650EMK-5XD evaluation module contains the wireless MCU and shows a variant of the RF layout using the 5x5 mm package, external bias and differential RF output (variant 5XD).
The CC2650-4XS evaluation module contains the wireless MCU and shows a variant of the RF layout using the 4x4 mm package, external bias and single-ended RF output (variant 4XS).
The board is equipped with a high performing PCB antenna, but you can easily attach an SMA connector to connect the radio to external test equipment.
