The figure is the block diagram of the CC2630 device given by TI.
The CC2630 device is a wireless microcontroller (MCU) primarily intended for ZigBee and 6LoWPAN applications.
This device is part of the SimpleLink™ CC26xx family of cost-effective, ultra-low power 2.4GHz RF devices. Its very low active RF and MCU currents and low power mode current consumption ensure excellent battery size for miniaturized coin cell batteries and for use in energy harvesting applications.
The SimpleLink Bluetooth Low Energy CC2630 device contains a 32-bit ARM® Cortex®-M3 core (operating at the same 48MHz as the main processor) and has a rich externally provided feature set, including a unique ultra-low power sensor controller. This sensor controller is ideal for interfacing external sensors and for automatically collecting analog and digital data while the rest of the system is in sleep mode. Therefore, the CC2630 device is an ideal choice for battery-powered and energy-harvesting terminal inverters in ZigBee and 6LoWPAN networks.
The power and clock management of the CC2630 wireless MCU and the wireless system require a specific configuration and are handled by software for proper operation, which is implemented in the TI-RTOS. TI recommends a software framework for the entire application development process for the device. The TI-RTOS and device drivers are freely available in source code form and can be downloaded from TI.
The IEEE 802.15.4 MAC is embedded in ROM and runs solely on the ARM® Cortex®-M0 processor. This architecture improves overall system performance and handling, and frees up flash memory for applications.
ZigBee protocol stack can be obtained free of charge from TI.
