CC2420 - IEEE 802.15.4

Hi,

Is there anyone familiar programming the CC2420 radio in C ??

What I need is a buffered Tx and a buffered Rx.

It must be easy but I'm stuck.

Any help is highly appreciated.

Regards,

Do you mean interrupt-driven buffers ? Similar to the CCS example
files Ex_Sisr.c and Ex_Stisr.c for the serial port on the PIC ?

I looked with Google and there is sample code out there in C18 and
some other compiler for the cc2420. This code could be translated
to CCS. It may not meet your requirements for buffered code.
Search for cc2420.c with Google to find it.

Thank you, PCM programmer

The CC2420 has built in support for buffered transmit and receive and it should be not too difficult to implement that.

Actually I'm trying to program the Flexipanel EasyBee which is based on the CC2420.

Any help is welcome at this point.

Thanks and regards,

The code in this link uses the CC2420's transmit and receive buffers:

This is Microchip C18 code and can be translated to CCS.

Thanks a lot, PCM programmer,

I believe this will help me to get the CC2420/EasyBee started !!!

I let let you know if it works.

Best regards,
