Ultra low-power wireless microcontrollers suit a host of applications

Texas Instruments' CC26xx SimpleLink ultra low-power wireless microcontrollers target Bluetooth Smart, ZigBee and 6LoWPAN, and ZigBee RF4CE remote control applications. The cost-effective 2.4-GHz RF devices offer very low active RF and MCU current, and low-power mode current consumption. They provide exceptional battery lifetime and allow operation on small coin cell batteries and in energy-harvesting applications. The CC2650 is a wireless MCU targeting Bluetooth Smart, ZigBee and 6LoWPAN, and ZigBee RF4CE remote control applications. The CC2640 targets Bluetooth Smart applications. The CC2630 targets ZigBee and 6LoWPAN applications.
