Objectives of the internship
Implement WSN(Wireless Sensor Network) with different use cases and security mechanism/protocol. Analyze and Evaluate.
Hardware
SmartRF06 EB (Evaluation Board)
SmartRF06 Evalution Board is used to debug, flash, or it could act as power supply for other micro controllers like CC2538 EM or CC2650 sensortag.
- Power supply (Battery, USB pc or 5V external source, external source(3.6v))
SmartRF06 EB can be powered by several sources:
- Batteries (two 1.5v batteries) [todo: image]
The image shows a switch for battery power source [todo: image switch]
- USB (1.5v via PC usb port or external usb source) [todo: image]
USB switch for USB source (1.5v) [todo: image switch]
- External regulated source (3.6v)
pin used for external source (3.6v) [todo: image of the pin switch] (warning: not tested)
- Reset Button
When connect to a microcontroller, SmartRF06EB, to some extents, is able to:
- Reset(restart) the microcontroller firmware by clicking reset button [todo: image]
- Boot to bootloader(in case of CC2538) by holding select button while clicking reset button [todo: image]
Note: Have to have bootloader bit enable (link to cc2538 for more detail)
- Connect to other controller
- CC2538 [todo: image]
- Sensortag [todo: image]
Note: SmartRF06 has a jumper that allow debugging and flashing on some microcontroller possible. (XDS100v3). [todo: add image , write more detail]
CC2538 EM
CC2538 Evaluation Module (EM) board is used to measure/evaluate RF performance. It operates on 2.4GHz frequency. In addition, CC2538 EM has pre-installed firmware that could be used to test send/receive packet. The hardware is not limited to the factory software, it's possible to flash other firmware to fit other purposes.
- Power supply (throught EB or 3.3v usb)
CC2538 could be powered by:
- SmartRF06 EB
1. Connect to correct PIN on CC2538 [todo: image] 2. Connect CC2538 EM to SmartRF06 [todo: image] 3. Power the SmartRF06
- USB port (not yet tested)
1. Connect to correct PIN on CC2538 [todo: image] 2. Connect to external source via usb

Issues faced
Compilation
Sometimes, when the output filetype is not specified (Ex: make TARGET=srf06-cc26xx BOARD=sensortag/cc2650
), the compilation returns error with:
[todo: image error text]
- Solution:
The problem could be solved by specify the output file. For example
make TARGET=srf06-cc26xx BOARD=sensortag/cc2650 udp-client.bin
Pending to be Documented
