zoe2 HAT

Retired project

zoe2 is retired. This page and the related guides remain available for existing hardware.

zoe2 is a Raspberry Pi radio HAT built around a CC1352P module. It keeps the radio on the Pi rather than on a separate USB stick and communicates through the GPIO UART.

Hardware​

  • Texas Instruments CC1352P wireless microcontroller module
  • Direct connection to the Raspberry Pi primary UART
  • External 2.4 GHz antenna connection
  • Active-low BSL input on DIO_15
  • Reset and JTAG access
  • Power-over-Ethernet-oriented gateway form factor

Host interface​

The Pi sees the radio through its primary UART rather than through a USB-to-serial bridge. Applications should use the stable /dev/serial0 alias after the Linux serial console has been disabled and the UART enabled.

Firmware family​

zoe2 uses the CC1352P2_CC2652P_other_* firmware target. It does not have the USB modem-control wiring used for Auto-BSL on zzhp, so bootloader entry is manual.
