[NEW] CC2674 (CC2674P/CC2674R) and CC1354 (CC1354P) Zigbee Coordinator adapters + firmware?

[Hedda]

Has anyone yet started to look at CC2674P or CC2674R (CC2674x10) Zigbee Coordinator and Zigbee Router adapters and firmware?

https://www.ti.com/product/CC2674P10

https://www.ti.com/product/CC2674R10

https://www.ti.com/document-viewer/CC2674P10/datasheet

https://www.ti.com/document-viewer/CC2674R10/datasheet

https://www.ti.com/document-viewer/lit/html/swra765

https://www.ti.com/lit/gpn/CC2674P10

https://www.ti.com/lit/gpn/cc2674r10

Developers should check out the official "LP-EM-CC1354P10" (CC1354P10 LaunchPad) development kits hardware from Texas Instruments:

• https://www.ti.com/product/CC1354P10#hardware-development
  • https://www.ti.com/tool/LP-EM-CC1354P10
    • https://www.ti.com/tool/LP-XDS110
  • https://www.ti.com/tool/LP-XDS110ET

The new CC2674 features up to 1MB flash and 296KB RAM compared to CC2652 which can have up to 704KB flash and 152KB RAM at most.

Understand CC2674P10 should be able to be a replacement of CC2652P2/CC2652P7 with both coming in the same package size and format?

Missed that Texas Instruments have also released a CC1354P (CC1354P10) Sub-1 GHz and 2.4 GHz SoC with multi-band/dual-band support:

https://www.ti.com/product/CC1354P10

https://www.ti.com/document-viewer/cc1354p10/datasheet

https://www.ti.com/lit/gpn/cc1354p10

They have LP-EM-CC1354P10 as a LaunchPad Development Kit:

https://www.ti.com/tool/LP-EM-CC1354P10

In addition, they got info on how to create a 433 to 930-MHz and 2.4-GHz Tunable PCB Antenna

https://www.ti.com/lit/pdf/swra730

https://www.ti.com/document-viewer/lit/html/swra730

PS: Off-topic but find CC1354P with Sub-GHz really interesting as Zigbee Sub-GHz (sub-1 GHz) for smart home automation use is a long time coming (though the technology has already existed for many years and is today commonly used for utilities Zigbee Smart Energy (ZSE / Zigbee SE) metering in many commercial meters. The biggest thing missing has been multi-band/dual-band and dual-mode support in a single chip that is as inexpensive as the others.

Now I'm going to end up having to buy a new Adapter lol. Actually I'm hoping to mod my Google Home V2s in Onju and bring them into HA as private devices. They have the preprinted boards so I've been working with some people to get a large order for the US. But it looks like the Chrystal's in it are causing the price rise due to chip shortage. We're hoping to get the finished drop in ESP built boards for under $30 USD + shipping

[Hedda]

@LordNex Nice but that is off-topic here.

[Hedda]

It looks like "CC1354P10-1 LaunchPad" and "CC1354P10-6 LaunchPad" is supported in SimpleLink CC13xx CC26xx SDK version 7.10.01.24?

I have not yet seen any news about a CC2674P10 or CC2674R10 based LaunchPad, but Mouser and others now look to have SoCs in stock.

• CC2674P106T0RGZR (CC2674P10 SoC)
• CC2674R106T0RGZR (CC2674R10 SoC)

@Koenkk Do you know if CC26x4 and CC13x4 will be supported by the same SimpleLink SDK and Z-Stack_3.x.0 as CC13x2 and CC26x2?

[mercenaruss]

Why not, if chips are available i will try to make it or will request for modules from RF-STAR on this chip.

[Hedda]

@mercenaruss any news from RFstar on CC2674P and/or CC1354P radio modules?

Also check out post below from @LSagiroglu about E72-2G4M20S1C (CC2674P10) radio module from Ebyte/Cdebyte.

[mercenaruss]

@Hedda I will order today and make some sample. If @Koenkk need one i will send to him also.
You are interested in one sample to speed up firmware development?

[Hedda]

You are interested in one sample to speed up firmware development?

Maybe once you and Koenkk get some CC2674P USB radio adapter prototypes and Z-Stack NCP Zigbee Coordinator firmware working with zigbee-herdsman for Zigbee2MQTT (and IoBroker) then maybe also ask if puddly as the developer of the zigpy-znp radio library want a prototype for sample too for broader testing (since zigpy is used by Home Assistant’s ZHA and the Zigbee Plugin for Domoticz) -> https://github.com/zigpy/zigpy-znp

[mercenaruss]

perfect,thanks.
I make the order and already prepared the PCB

[LSagiroglu]

module is ready: https://www.cdebyte.com/products/E72-2G4M20S1C (CC2674), pin to pin compatible with https://www.cdebyte.com/products/E72-2G4M20S1E (CC2652P)

[mercenaruss]

Will order today and start development.

[Hedda]

@LSagiroglu off-topic but wondering if Ebyte is also working on EFR32MG24 based radio modules as well?

Silicon Labs EFR32MG24 is the direct competition to Texas Instruments CC2674P and RFStar has released a such module:

https://www.rfstariot.com/rf-bm-mg24b2-matter-zigbee-openthread-ble-multiprotocol-efr32mg24-module_p106.html

https://www.rfstariot.com/rf-bm-mg24b1-ble5-3-matter-zigbee-thread-efr32mg24-module_p105.html

https://www.silabs.com/wireless/zigbee/efr32mg24-series-2-socs

Silicon Labs themselves have released its own EFR32MG24 based reference module as MGM240 (MGM240P and MGM240L):

https://www.silabs.com/wireless/zigbee/efr32mg24-series-2-modules

[codmpm]

Same here. Already ordered some CC2674 from ebyte. No word on the IPEX version, yet. Waiting for a reply from my sales representative.

[KrzysztofHajdamowicz]

@mercenaruss have your modules arrived?

[Hedda]

FYI, SMLIGHT has announced/launched CC2674P (CC2674P10) based "SLZB-07p10" USB dongle and "SLZB-06p10" Ethernet/WiFi adapter:

SLZB-07p10 -> https://smlight.tech/product/slzb-07p10/

SLZB-06p10 -> https://smlight.tech/product/slzb-06p10/

It is unclear if these are shipping already, and there are no Zigbee (or Thread/OpenThread) firmware images shared in their GitHub repos yet:

https://github.com/smlight-dev

Their website says it is supported by Zigbee2MQTT but believe that might just because they copies & pasted their webpages for their other models without updating anything but the model name, or at least noted those webpages still points the older user manual for some other models.

Maybe @smlight-dev-223942 / @Tarik2142 are to tell you/us more about the firmware build config that ship pre-flashed on these and if they are already shipping or not?

PS: I first spotted announced about these on CNXSoft's blog and that mentions that p10 models are only suitable for developers right now since the Zigbee firmware is still under development, see -> https://www.cnx-software.com/2024/02/13/zigbee-ethernet-wifi-coordinators-usb-adapters-ti-cc2652p7-cc2674p10-wireless-chips/

SLZB-06p10 -> https://smlight.tech/product/slzb-06p10/

@Koenkk have you already got samples of this CC2674P10 based hardware and/or have you looked at making firmware builds for it?

ZIGBEE FIRMWARE FOR ZIGBEE CHIP CC2674P10 IS STILL UNDER DEVELOPMENT.

YOU CAN BUY THIS DEVICE ONLY FOR DEVELOPMENT PURPOSES

CC2674P10 GPIOS for developers (corresponds to LAUNCHXL board CC2652P):

RF: RF_24GHZ → DIO28, RF_HIGH_PA → DIO29;
UART: TX → DIO13, RX → DIO12;
LEDs: GREEN LED → DIO6, RED LED → DIO7;
BOOT: BSL → DIO15, Reset → RESET_N;

[Koenkk]

Yes, but the FW is not working yet (multiple people are working on this)

[Hedda]

Any updates on Z-Stack Zigbee Coordinator firmware (and/or Zigbee Router firmware) for CC2674/CC2674P or CC1354/CC1354R?

Noticed that SMLIGHT is now shipping their CC2674P1 based SLZB-07p10 USB adaper dongle:

https://smlight.tech/product/slzb-07p10/

Note! They updated that webpage to specifically state there that only for developers for now "ZIGBEE FIRMWARE FOR ZIGBEE CHIP CC2674P10 IS STILL UNDER DEVELOPMENT" and that "YOU CAN BUY THIS DEVICE ONLY FOR DEVELOPMENT PURPOSES".

@Koenkk Any updates on Z-Stack Zigbee Coordinator (and/or Zigbee Router firmware) for the new CC2674P (CC2674) chip?

Noticed SMLIGHT has now removed their webpage comment about CC2674P based SLZB-07p10 being only for development purposes:

• https://smlight.tech/product/slzb-07p10/

Also noticed SMLIGHT started selling that CC2674P based SLZB-07p10 wholesale on their store for $19.99(US) but says no stock now:

• https://smartlight.me/smart-home-devices/zigbee-devices/coordinator-slzb-07p10

As well noticed you officially released build of Z-Stack_3.x.0 coordinator 20240710 firmware version as new “master” for cc26x2/cc13x2:

• Z-Stack_3.x.0 coordinator 20240710 feedback #505

  • https://github.com/Koenkk/Z-Stack-firmware/releases/tag/Z-Stack_3.x.0_coordinator_20240710

Wondering if people working on CC2674P firmware looking at SimpleLink SDK 7.41.00.17 as the base for Z-Stack coordinator FW too, or?

• https://software-dl.ti.com/simplelink/esd/simplelink_cc13xx_cc26xx_sdk/7.41.00.17/exports/changelog.html

PS: I see SimpleLink SDK 7.41.00.17 version mention "cc13x4" (CC1354R) and "cc26x4", (though not CC2674P or CC2674R specifically).

[Koenkk]

Any updates on Z-Stack Zigbee Coordinator (and/or Zigbee Router firmware) for the new CC2674P (CC2674) chip?

I did not start looking into this yet (but already have an adapter with this chip)

[Hedda]

Off-topic for Z-Stack Zigbee firmware discussion but FYI, hardware developers might be interested that these now have support in Matter:

https://github.com/project-chip/connectedhomeip/tree/master/docs/guides/ti

There are a few sections there that might still be related here too as they mention that GPIO pin values will require modifications, check out:

https://github.com/project-chip/connectedhomeip/blob/master/docs/guides/ti/matter_cc2674_migration.md

Running Matter Examples on the TI SimpleLink CC2674P10 and CC2674R10

The existing Matter project examples are based on LP_EM_CC1354P10_6. If using
the CC2674P10, the following migration steps are required. Developers are
strongly encouraged to start with a cc13x4_26x4 example and migrate the
project accordingly. Example projects can be found in the following location:
matter/examples/[application]/cc13x4_26x4

Dependencies

The following must be installed on your system before proceeding:

• SysConfig v1.16.2 or later

Matter source code changes

The following are changes to the Matter source code files which should be
applied to convert a matter/examples/[application]/cc13x4_26x4 project to the
CC2674P10 device

• examples/[application]/cc13x4_26x4/args.gni, modify/add the following
  defines for the CC2674
  • ti_simplelink_board = "CC2674"
  • ti_simplelink_device = "CC2674P10RGZ"
• third_party/ti_simplelink_sdk/repo_cc13xx_cc26xx/source/ti/common/flash/no_rtos/extFlash/bsp.h,
  modify the SPI GPIO pins to the value below:

#define BSP_IOID_FLASH_CS       IOID_20
#define BSP_SPI_MOSI            IOID_9
#define BSP_SPI_MISO            IOID_8
#define BSP_SPI_CLK_FLASH       IOID_10

The GPIO pin values for SPI will need to be adjusted based on your design.

Configuring chip.syscfg in the SysConfig GUI

1. To open matter/examples/[application]/cc13x4_26x4/chip.syscfg in the GUI,
   add the following line to the top of the file:

  // @cliArgs --product <path to SDK>/.metadata/product.json --board /ti/boards/LP_EM_CC1354P10_6 --rtos freertos

2. Open the syscfg file using the standalone Sysconfig GUI
   (sysconfig_gui.sh) from the SysConfig installation folder.
3. Click on Show Device View and then click Switch.
4. Select Board as None and Device as CC2674P10RGZ, Unselect
   Lock PinMux, and click Confirm.
5. To fix errors, make the following module changes:
   • RF Design and RF Stacks -> BLE -> Radio: click on accepting the
     current value, which should be LP_CC2674P10_RGZ in the drop down menu
     for Based On RF Design
   • TI DEVICES -> Device Configuration: Clear
     XOSC Cap Array Modification
   • TI DRIVERS -> RF: Set Global Event Mask as None and No. of Antenna
     Switch Control Pins as 0
   • TI DRIVERS -> UART2 -> PinMux: Set UART Peripheral to UART0, TX
     Pin to DIO_13/19, and RX Pin to DIO_12/18
   • TI DRIVERS APPS -> Button: Set PinMux of CONFIG_BTN_LEFT to
     DIO_15 and CONFIG_BTN_RIGHT to DIO_14
   • TI DRIVERS APPS -> LED: Set PinMux of CONFIG_LED_RED to DIO_6
     and CONFIG_LED_RIGHT to DIO_7
6. Save the SysConfig file (click on Save As) and ensure the file name matches
   the reference from BUILD.gn (default project name is chip.syscfg).
7. Open the new SysConfig file with a text editor and remove the generated
   arguments.

   /**
    * These arguments were used when this file was generated.  They will be automatically applied on subsequent loads
    * via the GUI or CLI.  Run CLI with '--help' for additional information on how to override these arguments.
    * @cliArgs --device "CC2674P10RGZ" --package "RGZ" --part "Default" --rtos "freertos" --product "simplelink_cc13xx_cc26xx_sdk@7.10.01.24"
    * @versions {"tool":"1.18.0+3130"}
    */
   

8. Move the *.syscfg file into the
   matter/examples/[application]/cc13x4_26x4/ folder. Make sure that the
   args.gni parameters are aligned for the CC2674P10RGZ as detailed above,
   and build the example using the README.md instructions.

Modifications required for the CC2674R10

After applying all items in the "Configuring chip.syscfg in the SysConfig GUI"
section, additional steps must also be applied to generate Matter project for
the CC2674R10.

• examples/[application]/cc13x4_26x4/args.gni should have
  ti_simplelink_board as CC2674 and ti_simplelink_device = CC2674R10RGZ.
• examples/[application]/cc13x4_26x4/chip.syscfg opened with a Text Editor
  should change ble.radioConfig.codeExportConfig.$name to
  ti_devices_radioconfig_code_export_param2 and ble.rfDesign to
  LP_EM_CC1354P10_1

Furthermore, the subsequent changes apply specifically for the CC2674R10 and
should be addressed from a SysConfig Editor.

1. Pins will need to be reconfigured as such:

   SysConfig pin name	R10 PinMux
   UART_RX	DIO_2
   UART_TX	DIO_3
   CONFIG_BTN_LEFT	DIO_13
   CONFIG_BTN_RIGHT	DIO_14
   CONFIG_LED_RED	DIO_6
   CONFIG_LED_GREEN	DIO_7

2. Custom -> IEEE 802.15.4-2006, 250 kbps, OQPSK, DSSS = 1:8 -> Code
   Export Configuration, acknowledge and dismiss the PA radio setup error

3. Custom -> IEEE 802.15.4-2006, 250 kbps, OQPSK, DSSS = 1:8 -> RF
   Command Symbols, change CMD_RADIO_SETUP from RF_cmdRadioSetup to
   RF_cmdIeeeRadioSetup and add the following functions from the drop-down:
   CMD_TX_TEST,CMD_IEEE_ED_SCAN, CMD_IEEE_CSMA, and CMD_IEEE_RX_ACK.

Building examples for the CC1354P10-1

To migrate the CC1354P10-6 examples to the CC1354P10-1 platform, there are only
two steps:

1. examples/[application]/cc13x4_26x4/args.gni should have
   ti_simplelink_board as CC1354P10-1
2. examples/[application]/cc13x4_26x4/chip.syscfg opened with a Text Editor
   should change ble.radioConfig.codeExportConfig.$name to
   ti_devices_radioconfig_code_export_param2 and ble.rfDesign to
   LP_EM_CC1354P10_1

After this, the example's README.md instructions can be followed to produce
the executable needed.

FYI, JelmerT's upstream cc2538-bsl (programming/flash command-line tool) does not yet support CC2674 or CC1354 but Texas Instruments looks to include a forked variant of it which someone wrote supposedly should support flashing the newer CC2674 and CC1354 SoCs, see:

• https://github.com/TexasInstruments/simplelink-lowpower-f2-sdk/tree/main/source/third_party/cc2538-bsl

It would be appriciated if someone could test TI's forked variant to confirm compatibility with CC2674/CC1354 and push patches upstream:

FYI, the SMLIGHT team has now also released a new web flasher on a cc2538-bsl with added support for CC2674P P10 (CC2674P10):

• https://github.com/smlight-tech/smlight-cc-web-tools

That webflasher depends on their "smlight_cc_flasher" project which in turn is another fork of JelmerT's cc2538-bsl project:

• https://github.com/smlight-tech/smlight-cc-flasher

• https://pypi.org/project/smlight-cc-flasher/

darkxst wrote that the smlight-cc-flasher is based on a heavily modified + improved experimental fork of JelmerT's cc2538-bsl project and that tthe fork has been tested with the new SMLIGHT SLZB-07p10 Zigbee Coordinator USB adapter based in CC2674P P10 (CC2674P10) that they released a while ago (but still mark as sold for developers only as there is no well tested community firmware publicly available as of yet):

• https://smlight.tech/flasher/#SLZB-07p10
