Python Library to Transmit RF Signals via CC1101 Transceivers

Setup

$ pip3 install --user --upgrade cc1101

On Raspbian / Raspberry Pi OS, dependencies can optionally be installed via:

$ sudo apt-get install --no-install-recommends python3-spidev

Wiring Raspberry Pi

Connect the following pins directly:

C1101 Raspberry Pi
VDD 3.3V (Pin 1 or 17)
SI MOSI (Pin 19)
SO MISO (Pin 21)
CSn CE0 (Pin 24)
SCLK SCLK (Pin 23)
GND Ground

If these pins are already in use, select a different SPI bus or chip select: https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentation/hardware/raspberrypi/spi/README.md (permalink)

No resistors required. GDO0 & GDO2 are currently unused.

Raspberry Pi GPIO docs: https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentation/usage/gpio/

Usage

See examples.

import cc1101

with cc1101.CC1101() as transceiver:
    transceiver.set_base_frequency_hertz(433.92e6)
    print(transceiver)
    transceiver.transmit(b"\x01\xff\x00 message")

In case CC1101 is connected to a different SPI bus or chip select line than /dev/spidev0.0, use CC1101(spi_bus=?, spi_chip_select=?).

In case a PermissionError gets raised, check the permissions of /dev/spidev*. You'll probably need sudo usermod -a -G spi $USER, followed by a re-login.
