hi, take a look at tinyos-1.x, which does a good job of hardware abstraction and has a large community of developers working on msp430-based platforms, both cots and custom. for reference, we use(d) the f1611 variant. in particular, if you're interested in an excellent network software stack implementation for the cc2420, investigate the contrib/handhelds tree in tinyos. -steve Shoaib Javed wrote: > How about using Integration's ML7065 it has a complete 802.15.4 MAC > implementation where as my understanding is that Airbee and Ember if > using the CC2420 (or EM2420) have implemented part of the MAC layer into > their software stack on the micro which does have an impact on code/data > space available.
