The CC3135 device is part of the SimpleLink™ microcontroller (MCU) platform which consists of Wi-Fi
Bluetooth
low energy, Sub-1 GHz radios and host MCUs. 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 lets you add any combination of devices from the portfolio into your design. The
ultimate goal of the SimpleLink™ platform is to achieve 100 percent code reuse when your design
requirements change. For more information, visit www.ti.com/simplelink.
The SimpleLink™ Wi-Fi
provides users the flexibility to add Wi-Fi
configurations of the CC3135 BoosterPack™ Plug-In Module.
