Table of Contents

Introduction

This CC33xx Linux Software Package delivers components that enable operation of the Texas Instruments CC33xx Wi-Fi and BLE family of wireless transceivers on Linux platforms.

This is version 1.0.0.1 of the CC33xx Linux Software Package.

It is a service release for version 1.0.0.0, which resolves several important items. The list of supported features has remained the same as version 1.0.0.0

Resolved issues

  1. OSPREY_LDB-1691 - Power consumption in Wi-Fi Idle connection (DTIM 1) is currently above target due to missing software optimization
  2. OSPREY_LDB-1513 - Device will not connect to an AP in ‘mixed mode’ security since WPA (TKIP) is not supported

Improvements

  1. Updated values for ETSI/FCC INI files
