CC3301 Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth
Low Energy devices enable affordable, reliable and
secure connectivity in embedded applications with
a processor host running Linux
running RTOS. The CC3301 BoosterPack
module (BP-CC3301) is a test and development
board that can be easily connected to TI LaunchPad
development kits or processor boards; thus enabling
rapid software development.

The signal assignment for these headers are described in the figures and tables below. The main JTAG interface for the BP-CC3301 is via the LP-XDS110 (ET) that is connected to the 20pin header (J11). A XDS110 debug probe can also interface with this board via a 10-pin header (J10), however this header is not populated with the default kit. -

, which can be as high as 500 mA. In such cases, the USB connector (J7) on the BP-CC3301 can be used to aid in extra current. The use of Schottky diodes make sure that load sharing occurs between the USB connectors on the LaunchPad kit and the BoosterPack module without any board modifications. -

Implementation Results www.ti.com Figure 3-4. BP-CC3301 + BBB with Adapter Board To make sure the BeagleBone Black boots up from the SD card, TI recommends to add a 100k Ohm resistor for R93 on the top of the BBB, and remove the R68 resistor seen on the bottom of the BBB. Alternatively, you can press and hold the S2 button on the BeagleBone board during power up if the hardware modifications were not made. -

Figure 3-7. This verifies that the target voltage for the JTAG signals are sourced from the BP-CC3301 (which is 1.8V) instead of the default LP-XDS110 target voltage (3.3V). Power supply for the BP-CC3301 comes from the LP-XDS110 in this case, but there can be usage scenarios where additional current is needed from the USB connection (J7). -
