Start your design with the industry’s first Wi-Fi CERTIFIED
single-chip microcontroller unit (MCU) with built-in Wi-Fi connectivity. Created for the Internet
of Things (IoT), the SimpleLink CC3200 device is a wireless MCU that integrates a high-performance
ARM Cortex-M4 MCU, allowing customers to develop an entire application with a single IC. With
on-chip Wi-Fi, Internet, and robust security protocols, no prior Wi-Fi experience is required for
faster development. The CC3200 device is a complete platform solution including software, sample
applications, tools, user and programming guides, reference designs, and the TI
E2E™ support community. The device is available in
a QFN package that is easy to layout.
The applications MCU subsystem contains an industry-standard ARM
Cortex-M4 core running at 80 MHz. The device includes a wide variety of peripherals, including a
fast parallel camera interface, I2S, SD/MMC, UART, SPI, I2C, and
four-channel ADC. The CC3200 family includes flexible embedded RAM for code and data and ROM with
external serial flash bootloader and peripheral drivers.
The Wi-Fi network processor subsystem features a Wi-Fi Internet-on-a-Chip and contains
an additional dedicated ARM MCU that completely offloads the applications MCU. This subsystem includes
an 802.11 b/g/n radio, baseband, and MAC with a powerful crypto engine for fast, secure Internet
connections with 256-bit encryption. The CC3200 device supports Station, Access Point, and Wi-Fi Direct modes. The
device also supports WPA2 personal and enterprise security and WPS 2.0. The
Wi-Fi Internet-on-a-chip includes embedded
TCP/IP and TLS/SSL stacks, HTTP server, and multiple Internet protocols.
The power-management subsystem includes integrated DC-DC converters supporting a wide
range of supply voltages. This subsystem enables low-power consumption modes, such as the hibernate
with RTC mode requiring less than
4 µA of current.
