The radino32 CC1101 combines an STM32L151 from STMicroelectronics with the CC1101 narrowband transceiver from Texas Instruments in the radino form factor.

It succeeds the radino CC1101 — with more processing power, larger RAM, flash and EEPROM, and more pin functions. All modules of the radino32 range are pin-to-pin compatible with each other.

Two part numbers, two bands

The CC1101 itself handles both bands. What separates them is the balun: it is fitted for one band and thereby fixes what the module is matched to. Hence two distinct articles, not two options of one.

Applications

  • Ultra low power wireless applications in the 433, 868 and 915 MHz ISM/SRD bands
  • Wireless alarm and security systems
  • Industrial monitoring and control
  • Wireless sensor networks
  • Automatic meter reading, including Wireless M-Bus
  • Home and building automation

Software

The modules ship unprogrammed — with no application in memory. What runs on them is written by the customer.

Your own program goes onto the module as a .bin file using stm32flash over the serial interface — see radino32 software.
