Since the NANO USB stick has no I/O connections or LEDs for user interface it is recommended to
use a standard CC2531 USB dongle for SW development and prototyping before loading the code
onto the NANO USB stick. The NANO USB stick is compatible with regards to USB interface and
radio interface to the standard CC2531 USB dongle.

Table 1: NANO USB and standard USB pin assignments
The debug interface on the NANO USB stick is accessible on test points between the USB connector
pins but these test points are small and difficult to access. Hence it is recommended to use the USB
bootloader code programmed into the device for loading application code onto the device.
All unused I/Os should be configured as input pull-down at the beginning of your application to reduce
current consumption.
4 NANO USB Stick Serial Boot Loader
This section will guide you through the steps needed to build a Serial Boot Loader (SBL) for a Z-stack
and for an RF4CE application and will explain you how to modify such an application to be compatible
with the SBL. The SBL is provided as a value-enhancing sample solution that enables the updating of
code in devices without the cost of maintaining any download-related code in the user application
other than ensuring a compatible flash memory mapping of the final output. SBL is effected as a
managed client-server mechanism which requires a serial master to drive the process (i.e. a PC GUI
application with access to the serial connection to the CC2531.)
Since the NANO USB stick has no human interface such as keys, the boot loader will always
automatically start before the application, wait for a potential application downloading during ~15sec,
and then automatically jump to the application if any valid image is already loaded in flash. If not, it will
wait for an application downloading forever.
Therefore, when the SBL will be loaded into flash memory, each time you connect your NANO USB
stick into a USB port you will have around 15 seconds to download your new application. Then the
SBL will jump to the existing application and you won’t be able to download your new application
anymore.
The following sections will walk you through the steps needed to build and download the SBL, then
build and download an SBL compatible application using IAR to finally load your application on the
NANO USB stick using SBDemo tool.

4.2
SBL Boot Code Image
If the SBL is already loaded on your target, skip this section.
This section will guide you through the steps needed to program the Bootloader image into flash using
Texas Instrument SmartRF Programmer. The project for the boot image already exists, so all you
need to do here is open the project, rebuild it and download the output .hex file with SmartRF
Programmer.
But before downloading the SBL, you may want to tune the period during which the SBL waits for an
application to be downloaded (it happens after powercycling the device, the default setting is around
15 sec). To do that, just modify the SBL_WAIT_PERIOD value defined in the Constants section in the
main file of the SBL project, called either sb_main.c for the Z-stack bootloader, or main_cc2531.c for
the RemoTI stack. This waiting period is not implemented with timers, it simply uses a while loop
statement decrementing the SBL_WAIT_PERIOD value. This value is initialized to a non-zero value,
and when it reaches zero the SBL jumps to the application. Therefore the conversion between the
variable value and corresponding time is approached by the relation:
For Z-stack SBL : SBL_WAIT_PERIOD = 21 845 * X, where X is the waiting period in seconds.
For RemoTI SBL : SBL_WAIT_PERIOD = 23 130 * X, where X is the waiting period in seconds.
Modify the value and rebuild the project. Then you can download the SBL on the target.
4.3
Download the Serial Bootloader
1. Open Texas Instruments SmartRF Programmer
2. SelectProgram CCxxxx SoC or MSP430 under What do you want to program ?
3. Select System-on-chip tab
4. Browse the Flash image field to the .hex object file of the SBL
8/21
5. First Erase the flash by selecting Erase in Actions and then click Perform Actions
6. Then program the flash by selececting Erase and Program or Erase, program and verify, then
click Perform actions.
4.4
SBL Compatible Application Code Image
In this section you will be guided through the steps needed to convert an already existing Z-Stack
2.4.0 or RemoTI 1.2.1 application (in this case the RemoTI RNP application and, in parallel, the Zstack ZNP application) into one that is compatible with the SBL. The application needs to be modified
such that it does not overwrite the SBL that has been programmed into flash in the previous section.
After the project has been modified to be SBL compatible the final steps in this section will program
the SBL compatible application into flash using SBDemo.
4.5
Generating a Binary file:
The project must be modified to produce a binary file that can be downloaded by the SBL PC
Application “SBDemo.exe”. This will be used in later sections.
In IAR, open your project, here we will use RNP and ZNP projects:
1. File->Open->Open workspace
2. Browse to and open
a. for the Z-Stack: " Projects\zstack\ZNP\CC253x\ znp.eww "
b. for the RemoTI stack: “Projects\RemoTI\RNP\CC2530EB\ rnp_cc2530.eww”
3. From the project view in Left panel click on the drop down box at the top
4. Select
a. For the Z-stack: “CC2531 – ProdSBL”
b. For the RemoTI stack: “CC2531F256_SB”
5. Project->Options
6. Select "Build Actions" category in left panel
7. Depending on the stack you will use, different tools will be used to generate a binary file:
9/21
a. For the Z-stack: Add the following line to the "Post-build command line":
"$PROJ_DIR$\tools\znp.bat" "$PROJ_DIR$\tools" "CC2531-ProdSBL"
b. For the RemoTI stack:Add the following line to the "Post-build command line":
"$PROJ_DIR$\pp_cc2531f256sb.bat" "$PROJ_DIR$"
8. Now select "Linker" category in the left panel
a. For the Z-stack : in the Ouput tab, in the Format section, select Other, then Output Format:
simple-code and Format variant: None
10/21
b.1) For the RemoTI stack : in the Output tab, in the Fornat Section, select Debug information for
C-SPY, and check "With runtime control modules" and "Allow C-SPY - specific extra ouput file"
b.2) in the Extra Ouput tab, check Generate extra ouput file and in the Format section
select Ouput format : raw-binary and Format variant : None
11/21
9. For the Z-stack-based ZNP project only:
a. Select "C/C++ Compiler" category in left panel
b. Select "Preprocessor" tab in right panel
c. At the bottom of the "Defined Symbols: (one per line)" list add (on a new line)
MAKE_CRC_SHD (it resets the CRC located at 0x2092-0x2093 in CODE to 0xFFFF value)
12/21
4.5.1
Note on the batch files:
znp.bat and pp_cc2531f256sb.bat use tools located in different directories, therefore be careful to
respect the proper location of your files:
znp.bat : calls znp.js which shall be located in "$PROJ_DIR$\tools" (1st option of znp.bat) where
$PROJ_DIR$ refers to your project directory containing znp.eww. znp.js usessim2bin.exe wich
actually converts a .sim file into a .bin file. The .sim file is an output of IAR, sim2bin.exe fetches it in
the "CC2531-ProdSBL" (2nd option of znp.bat) directory located in the project directory. Ensure that
all the files and directories are properly located and named.
pp_cc2531f256sb.bat : calls oadbbin.exe located in "$PROJ_DIR$\..\..\common\cc2530\”, where one
“..\” means one on-directory. oadbbin.exe uses rnp_cc2531.a51 (ouput of IAR) located in
"$PROJ_DIR$\CC2531F256_SB\Exe\” and creates rnp_cc2531.bin located in
"$PROJ_DIR$\CC2531F256_SB\Exe\”. Ensure that all the files and directories are properly located
and named.
This remark holds for the linker file location, cf. below.
4.5.2 Modify the code placement:
The SBL resides in the beginning of flash. So the linker command file needs to place the application
image in an area of memory that does not overlap the SBL (and further more at a start address
expected by the SBL).
1. On the left pannel select Linker
2. Select "Config" tab.
3. Change the linker command file to:
a. For the Z-stack: $PROJ_DIR$\..\..\Tools\CC2530DB\cc2530-sb.xcl
b. For the RemoTI stack: $PROJ_DIR$\..\..\common\cc2530\ti_51ew_cc2531f256_sb.xcl
4. Rebuild your project.

Download a New Application Image via SBL
Once an SBL compatible binary file has been generated, you can download it on the NANO USB stick
using the SBDemo tool.
4.6.1
Serially boot the new Application Image (binary file):
1. Connect the NANO USB stick into a USB port
2. Open SBDemo.exe
3. Click on the “...” button and browse to your application image, ex:
a. For the Z-stack: “Projects\zstack\ZNP\CC253x\dev\ CC2531ZNP-Prod.bin”
b. For the RemoTI stack: “Projects\RemoTI\RNP\CC2530EB\CC2531F256_SB\Exe\
rnp_cc2531.bin”
4. Click on the Open button.
5. Enter the COM Port of the SBL (cf. Device Manager)
6. Click on the "Load Image" button to send the file.
7. The file will take a couple of seconds to download and verify.
8. Power cycle the NANO USB stick
14/21
4.6.2
Remark about the Application
The NANO USB stick dongle has almost* all of its pins connected to ground; therefore you should set
these pins to be input pull-down at the beginning of your application to reduce current consumption.
After a reset the default state is input pullup for all GPIOs.

4.7.1
Common Issues
SmartRF Programmer bug:
Sometimes the SmartRF Programmer window gets out of the screen so you can’t see it anymore but
it is still present in the task bar. Therefore you just need to move the window back into the screen:
1. Left click on the application in the task bar to select it
2. Right click on the application in the task bar
3. Click on Move
4. Hit any array button (up/down/left right) on your keyboard to enable the Move command
5. Move your mouse until you see the smart RF window appear on your screen.
4.7.2
USB Driver issues:
When you connect a NANO USB stick for the first time in a USB port, Microsoft Windows may
automatically install the corect driver. If it does, you should then see your NANO USB stick appear in
the Ports (COM & LPT) list in the Device Manager, labeled either RemoTI Network Processor or TI
CC2531 Low Power RF to USB CDC Serial Port.
If Windows does not install the correct driver, or does not install anything, find your NANO USB stick
in the Ports list (check under Universal Serial Bus Controller as an Unknown device or under Cebal
controlled devices) and do the following:
1. Right click on the label in the Port list
2. Click on Update Driver…
3. Select No, not this time and click Next
4. Select Install from a list or specific location (Advanced) and click Next
5. Select Don’t search. I will choose the driver to install. And click Next
6. Click on Have Disk
7. Browse to
either usb_cdc_driver_cc2531_PID16A8.inf or usb_cdc_driver_cc2531_PID16B2.inf.Try both of them,
if the first one does not work, the second one should.

EVALUATION BOARD/KIT/MODULE (EVM)
WARNINGS, RESTRICTIONS AND DISCLAIMERS
For Feasibility Evaluation Only, in Laboratory/Development Environments. Unless otherwise
indicated, this EVM is not a finished electrical equipment and not intended for consumer use. It is
intended solely for use for preliminary feasibility evaluation in laboratory/development environments
by technically qualified electronics experts who are familiar with the dangers and application risks
associated with handling electrical mechanical components, systems and subsystems. It should not
be used as all or part of a finished end product.
Your Sole Responsibility and Risk. You acknowledge, represent and agree that:
1. You have unique knowledge concerning Federal, State and local regulatory requirements
(including but not limited to Food and Drug Administration regulations, if applicable) which relate
to your products and which relate to your use (and/or that of your employees, affiliates,
contractors or designees) of the EVM for evaluation, testing and other purposes.
2. You have full and exclusive responsibility to assure the safety and compliance of your products
with all such laws and other applicable regulatory requirements, and also to assure the safety of
any activities to be conducted by you and/or your employees, affiliates, contractors or designees,
using the EVM. Further, you are responsible to assure that any interfaces (electronic and/or
mechanical) between the EVM and any human body are designed with suitable isolation and
means to safely limit accessible leakage currents to minimize the risk of electrical shock hazard.
3. You will employ reasonable safeguards to ensure that your use of the EVM will not result in any
property damage, injury or death, even if the EVM should fail to perform as described or
expected.
4. You will take care of proper disposal and recycling of the EVM’s electronic components and
packing materials
Certain Instructions. It is important to operate this EVM within TI’s recommended specifications and
environmental considerations per the user guidelines. Exceeding the specified EVM ratings (including
but not limited to input and output voltage, current, power, and environmental ranges) may cause
property damage, personal injury or death. If there are questions concerning these ratings please
contact a TI field representative prior to connecting interface electronics including input power and
intended loads. Any loads applied outside of the specified output range may result in unintended
and/or inaccurate operation and/or possible permanent damage to the EVM and/or interface
electronics. Please consult the EVM User's Guide prior to connecting any load to the EVM output. If
there is uncertainty as to the load specification, please contact a TI field representative. During normal
operation, some circuit components may have case temperatures greater than 60 C as long as the
input and output are maintained at a normal ambient operating temperature. These components
include but are not limited to linear regulators, switching transistors, pass transistors, and current
sense resistors which can be identified using the EVM schematic located in the EVM User's Guide.
When placing measurement probes near these devices during normal operation, please be aware
that these devices may be very warm to the touch. As with all electronic evaluation tools, only
qualified personnel knowledgeable in electronic measurement and diagnostics normally found in
development environments should use these EVMs
Agreement to Defend, Indemnify and Hold Harmless. You agree to defend, indemnify and hold TI,
its licensors and their representatives harmless from and against any and all claims, damages,
losses, expenses, costs and liabilities (collectively, "Claims") arising out of or in connection with any
use of the EVM that is not in accordance with the terms of the agreement. This obligation shall apply
whether Claims arise under law of tort or contract or any other legal theory, and even if the EVM fails
to perform as described or expected.
Safety-Critical or Life-Critical Applications. If you intend to evaluate the components for possible
use in safety critical applications (such as life support) where a failure of the TI product would
reasonably be expected to cause severe personal injury or death, such as devices which are
20/21
classified as FDA Class III or similar classification, then you must specifically notify TI of such intent
and enter into a separate Assurance and Indemnity Agreement.
