Step 2: Target Detection

It is essential to determine whether the connected device is a CC3120 or CC3220. It is important because additional steps are required for the CC3220. The provided information indicates whether the device is a CC3220 (nonsecured), CC3220S, or CC3220SF (flash device).

The procedure for detecting the target follows:

  1. The main processor sends the Get Version Info command.
  2. The CC3120 or CC3220 device responds with an Ack, followed by the Version Info response. The first byte of the Chip type field must be tested.
  3. If (chip type & 0x10) //the device is CC3220 flavor// If (chip type == 0x10) //the device is CC3220 (nonsecured)// If (chip type == 0x18) //the device is CC3220S (secured ROM)// If (chip type == 0x19) //the device is CC3220SF (secured flash)// else //the device is CC3220 flavor//
  4. The main processor responds with an Ack.

Figure 4 shows the Get Version Info command and the Version Info response.
