Low-Power RF devices receive and transmit data via the SPI protocol. The MSP430 Code Library for TI RF devices makes

　　communicating to an RF device simple through a MSP430 SPI， USART， USI， USCI or even “bit-banged”I/O port.

　　For the CC430， standalone MSP430 and Low-Power RF devices， we recommend the following set-up：

　　? Two MSP-EXP430FG4618 experimenter boards （standalone MSP430 and Low-Power RF devices） or

　　1 FET430F6137RF900 EVM kit （CC430）

　　? One CC1101 or CC2500 EMK （includes two boards） – for standalone MSP430 and Low-Power RF devices only

　　? IDE （IAR Workbench or Code Composer? studio V4 have limited versions for free download）

　　? MSP-FET430UIF or equivalent MSP430 programming and debugging interfac

　　? MSP430 Code Library for CC430， Low-Power RF devices and other software resource

　　? SmartRF Studio
