CC3120 & CC3220 SimpleLink Tools

Introduction

This page provides various tool downloads and guides that can be used on SimpleLink CC3120 and CC3220 devices for development and production uses.

Wi-Fi Starter Pro App

Target Device: CC3120 & CC3220
Tool Download: SimpleLink Wi-Fi Starter Pro

The SimpleLink™ Wi-Fi® Starter Pro mobile App is a mobile application for SimpleLink provisioning. This utilizes the SimpleLink provisioning library and examples from the CC3120 or CC3220 SDKs. Customers can use the provisioning library and the mobile library for integration to their end products.

Uniflash ImageCreator

Target Device: CC3120 & CC3220
Tool Download: Uniflash
Documentation: User's Guide

Uniflash ImageCreator is an application which is used to create a programming image and write the programming image to the SimpleLink CC3x20 devices. The programming image is a file which contains the SimpleLink device configurations and files required for the operation of the device. For the SimpleLink CC3220 wireless microcontroller, it can also include the host application file.

Embedded Programming

Target Device: CC3120 & CC3220
Tool Download: Embedded Programming
Documentation: User's Guide

The Image Programming utility allows the end-users to communicate with the SimpleLink CC3120 & CC3220 devices via a standard UART interface for flashing of full binary image generated with Uniflash ImageCreator utility.
The tool is part of the Embedded Programming feature and designed as a reference for end-users implementing on embedded processors.

Radio Tool

Target Device: CC3120 & CC3220
Tool Download: Radio Tool
Documentation: User's Guide

The SimpleLink Wi-Fi Radio Tool is a Windows-based software tool for RF evaluation and testing of CC3120 and CC3220 designs during development and certification. The tool enables low-level radio testing capabilities by manually setting the radio into transmit or receive modes. Usage of the tool requires familiarity and knowledge of radio circuit theory and radio test methods.

TI-RTOS

Target Device: CC3120 & CC3220
For more information: see the TI-RTOS SimpleLink Academy trainings

TI-RTOS is a scalable real-time operating system (RTOS) for TI devices. It scales from a real-time multitasking kernel - TI-RTOS Kernel (formerly known as SYS/BIOS) - to a complete RTOS solution including additional middleware components and device drivers. By providing essential system software components pre-tested and pre-integrated, TI-RTOS enables developers to focus on differentiating their application.

Pin Mux Tool

Target Device: CC3220
Tool Download: Pin Mux Tool
Documentation: Pin Muxing Tool Guide

The Pin Mux Utility is a software tool which provides a Graphical User Interface for configuring pin multiplexing settings, resolving conflicts and specifying I/O cell characteristics for TI MCUs. Results are output as C header/code files that can be imported into software development kits (SDK) or used to configure customer's custom software.

SimpleLink Studio

Target Device: CC3120
Tool Download: SimpleLink Studio

SimpleLink™ Studio for CC3120 is a Windows-based software tool used to aid in the development of embedded networking applications and software for microcontrollers. Using SimpleLink Studio for CC3120, embedded software developers can develop and test applications using any desktop IDE, such as Visual Studio or Eclipse, and connect their applications to the cloud using the CC3120 BoosterPack. The application can then be ported to any microcontroller.
