eZ430-RF2500 Development Tool
The eZ430-RF2500 is a complete wireless development tool for MSP430™ MCUs and the CC2500 that includes all the hardware and software required to develop an entire wireless project with the MSP430 in a convenient USB stick. This eZ430™ development tool uses the MSP430F22x4, which combines 16-MIPS performance with a 200-ksps 10-bit ADC and 2 op-amps and is paired with the CC2500 multi-channel RF transceiver designed for low-power wireless applications. The eZ430-RF2500 also is used to run the energy harvesting application of the eZ430-RF2500-SEH Solar Energy Harvesting Development Tool. The eZ430-RF2500-SEH helps designers create a perpetually powered wireless sensor network based on the ultra-low-power MSP430 MCU.
The eZ430-RF2500 tool kit includes:
- A USB-powered emulator to program and debug your application in-system
- Two 2.4-GHz wireless target boards featuring the highly integrated MSP430F2274 ultra-low-power MCU
Battery expansion board and AAA batteries for project development and instant deployment
- All the required software is included such as a complete Integrated Development Environment and SimpliciTI, a propriety low-power star network stack, enabling robust wireless networks out of the box.

Application Notes
Wireless Sensor Monitor Using the eZ430-RF2500 (Rev. A)
This application report documents the wireless temperature-sensor network demonstration application provided with the eZ430-RF2500 development tool. The application uses Texas Instruments SimpliciTI wireless communication protocol to set up a simple network in which end devices communicate sampled temperature and
voltage data to a network access point. The access point communicates all collected data through an available UART to a PC COM port. This port is then used with an accompanying graphical user interface (GUI) to display the data in a user-friendly manner. This document is intended to act as a guide for the eZ430-RF2500 firmware only. It does not focus on the use of the accompanying Network Visualizer GUI or on the SimpliciTI network protocol.
