The Sensor Controller is an autonomous processor that can control the peripherals in the Sensor
Controller independent of the main CPU. This means that the main CPU does not have to wake up, for
example to execute an ADC sample or poll a digital sensor over SPI, thus saving both current and wake-
up time that would otherwise be wasted. The Sensor Controller Studio lets the user configure the Sensor
Controller and choose which peripherals are controlled and which conditions wake up the main CPU.
6.8 Clock Systems
The CC1310 device supports two external and two internal clock sources.
A 24-MHz external crystal is required as the frequency reference for the radio. This signal is doubled
internally to create a 48-MHz clock.
The 32.768-kHz crystal is optional. The low-speed crystal oscillator is designed for use with a 32.768-kHz
watch-type crystal.
The internal high-speed RC oscillator (48-MHz) can be used as a clock source for the CPU subsystem.
The internal low-speed RC oscillator (32-kHz) can be used as a reference if the low-power crystal
oscillator is not used.
The 32-kHz clock source can be used as external clocking reference through GPIO.
6.9 General Peripherals and Modules
The I/O controller controls the digital I/O pins and contains multiplexer circuitry to assign a set of
peripherals to I/O pins in a flexible manner. All digital I/Os are interrupt and wake-up capable, have a
programmable pullup and pulldown function, and can generate an interrupt on a negative or positive edge
(configurable). When configured as an output, pins can function as either push-pull or open-drain. Five
GPIOs have high-drive capabilities, which are marked in bold in the Pin Diagram section.
The SSIs are synchronous serial interfaces that are compatible with SPI, MICROWIRE, and TI's
synchronous serial interfaces. The SSIs support both SPI master and slave up to 4 MHz.
The UART implements a universal asynchronous receiver and transmitter function. The UART supports
flexible baud-rate generation up to a maximum of 3 Mbps.
Timer 0 is a general-purpose timer module (GPTM) that provides two 16-bit timers. The GPTM can be
configured to operate as a single 32-bit timer, dual 16-bit timers, or as a PWM module.
Timer 1, Timer 2, and Timer 3 are also GPTMs; each timer is functionally equivalent to Timer 0.
In addition to these four timers, a separate timer in the RF core handles timing for RF protocols; the RF
timer can be synchronized to the RTC.
The I2S interface is used to handle digital audio (for more information, see the CC13xx, CC26xx
SimpleLink™ Wireless MCU Technical Reference Manual).
The I
2
C interface is used to communicate with devices compatible with the I
2
C standard. The I
2
C interface
can handle 100 kHz and 400 kHz operation, and can serve as both I
2
C master and I
2
C slave.
The TRNG module provides a true, nondeterministic noise source for the purpose of generating keys,
initialization vectors (IVs), and other random number requirements. The TRNG is built on 24 ring
oscillators that create unpredictable output to feed a complex nonlinear-combinatorial circuit.
The watchdog timer is used to regain control if the system fails due to a software error after an external
device fails to respond as expected. The watchdog timer can generate an interrupt or a reset when a
predefined time-out value is reached.
