3 Description
The SimpleLink™ CC2642R device is a 2.4 GHz wireless microcontroller (MCU) supporting Bluetooth® 5.2 Low
Energy and Proprietary 2.4 GHz applications. The device is optimized for low-power wireless communication
and advanced sensing in building security systems, HVAC, asset tracking, medical, wired networking, portable
electronics, home theater & entertainment, and connected peripherals markets markets, and applications where
industrial performance is required. The highlighted features of this device include:
• Support for Bluetooth ® 5.2 features: LE Coded PHYs (Long Range), LE 2-Mbit PHY (High Speed),
Advertising Extensions, Multiple Advertisement Sets, CSA#2, Diirection Finding, as well as backwards
compatibility and support for key features from the Bluetooth ® 4.2 and earlier Low Energy specifications.
• Fully-qualified Bluetooth ® 5.2 software protocol stack included with the SimpleLink™ CC13x2 and CC26x2
Software Development Kit (SDK).
• Longer battery life wireless applications with low standby current of 0.94 µA with full RAM retention.
• Industrial temperature ready with lowest standby current of 11 µA at 105°C.
• Advanced sensing with a programmable, autonomous ultra-low power Sensor Controller CPU with fast
wake-up capability. As an example, the sensor controller is capable of 1-Hz ADC sampling at 1 µA system
current.
• Low SER (Soft Error Rate) FIT (Failure-in-time) for long operation lifetime with no disruption for industrial
markets with always-on SRAM parity against corruption due to potential radiation events.
• Dedicated software controlled radio controller (Arm® Cortex®-M0) providing flexible low-power RF transceiver
capability to support multiple physical layers and RF standards, such as real-time localization (RTLS)
technologies.
• Excellent radio sensitivity and robustness (selectivity and blocking) performance for Bluetooth ® Low Energy
(-105 dBm for 125-kbps LE Coded PHY).
The CC2642R device is part of the SimpleLink™ MCU platform, which consists of Wi-Fi®, Bluetooth Low
Energy, Thread, Zigbee, Sub-1 GHz MCUs, and host MCUs that all share a common, easy-to-use development
environment with a single core software development kit (SDK) and rich tool set. A one-time integration of the
SimpleLink™ platform enables you to add any combination of the portfolio’s devices into your design, allowing
100 percent code reuse when your design requirements change. For more information, visit SimpleLink™ MCU
