Hi Peter, Thanks for your answer and suggestion.
Regarding the Atmel sam21 board, I did some research about this board. Are the following items are the correct choice for this board? http://www.mouser.com/ProductDetail/Atmel/ATSAMR21-XPRO/?qs=%2fha2pyFaduinoflRfGzRdS4dlh0TRHsHwck%2fQEeul8k%3d http://www.mouser.com/ProductDetail/Atmel/ATIO1-XPRO/?qs=%2fha2pyFaduhtOCTaz1iZVyfMwgvMHCxNg1zq5ZaphoVS1gdRKq6VlQ%3d%3d Please help me to confirm this if you have time. BTW, our goal is to test ccn-lite on RIOT, so as long as the transceiver works, ccn-lite stack should work, am I right?
