The SimpleLink™ MSP432™ and Wi-Fi® CC3220 software development kits (SDKs) include the ability to use FreeRTOS™ (as well as the TI-RTOS). This workshop will explain what this really means. Here's what we'll learn: How TI Drivers work with FreeRTOSPOSIX support with FreeRTOSUnderstand parts of FreeRTOS kernel projects This training is delivered as part of SimpleLink™ Academy in TI Resource Explorer, a collection of curated training modules developed by TI subject matter experts to help developers get up and running as quickly as possible. 

POSIX (Portable Operating System Interface) is an IEEE industry API standard for OS compatibility. The SimpleLink™ software development kits (SDKs) has both TI-RTOS and FreeRTOS support, however it also offers POSIX support on top of either of these RTOS's. This allows applications to be independent of the underlying RTOS. This workshop provides a simple introduction to using POSIX with the SimpleLink SDK. You will use TI Resource Explorer, the SimpleLink SDK, and CCS Cloud to modify a project and run it on a SimpleLink LaunchPad™ Development Kit. The goal for this project is to familiarize you with some POSIX APIs and concepts typically used in multithreaded applications.

The purpose of this exercise is to familiarize the users with the RF driver running on the SimpleLink™ CC13x0 device. Users will also use Code Composer Studio and SmartRF™ Studio, and will learn how to import and modify existing RX & TX example applications. Users will use 2 CC13x0 LaunchPad™ kits to send/receive data between them.

This training will walk you through setting up the Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) example with the SimpleLink™ CC13xx device. When you have completed the training you will have a WSN consisting of a concentrator displaying data received from one or more sensor nodes. The nodes will be truly ultra low power and only wake up to send data if the measured ADC value (capacitive coupling on certain pins) changes by a certain threshold.

This training will walk you through setting up the Easy Link Network Processor example, as well as using SmartRF Studio for RF evaluation. When you have completed the training you will be able to set up the TI-RTOS EasyLink AT command Network Processor example to run on supported hardware, e.g. the CC1310/CC1350 LaunchPad.

This workshop is a simple introduction for using TI Drivers within the Simplelink™ SDK. To get our feet wet, we are going to start basic & will learn how to blink an LED on our LaunchPad using the SimpleLink SDK. Specifically, we are going to be using "TI Drivers", a collection of easy-to-use APIs that provide abstracted, functional access to various peripherals. Note that TI Drivers are compatible across the entire portfolio SimpleLink MCU devices.  This training is delivered as part of SimpleLink™ Academy in TI Resource Explorer, a collection of curated training modules developed by TI subject matter experts to help developers get up and running as quickly as possible.

This workshop is a continuation of the TI Drivers Project Zero exercise. We will expand on that example by creating a simple PC-side graphical user interface (GUI) that complements our example. If you remember, we created a simple application that continually reads an ADC channel & toggles an LED on or off depending on whether or not our ADC reading exceeds a threshold. To do this, we will use a nifty tool called GUI Composer. GUI Composer is a browser-based utility for creating PC-side graphical interfaces for interacting with your hardware. GUI Composer supports several interfaces today, including Serial/UART, JTAG/XDS, or MQTT (for IoT applications).
