FREESTAR PRO SERIES TRANSCEIVER MODULES
DESCRIPTION
CEL’s FreeStar Pro module provides a high performance and cost
effective RF transceiver solution for 2.4 GHz IEEE 802.15.4, ZigBee,
and Zigbee PRO wireless networks.
The FreeStar Pro module is based on the Freescale™ MC13224V
transceiver platform. It combines Freescale’s transceiver IC with an
onboard 100mW Power Amplier. Ideal for remote sensing, AMR/AMI,
home and building automation, industrial control, and security applica-
tions, FreeStar Pro combines extensive processing capability with high
output power and low power consumption.
The processing power of the MC13224V enables the FreeStar Pro to
provide a level of integration unprecedented in a ZigBee module. The
32-bit ARM7TDMI processor and expansive on-chip memory enable
designers to eliminate the peripheral host processors often required
by 8- and 16-bit transceiver solutions. This high level of integration
reduces component count, lower power consumption and overall
system costs.

MICROPROCESSOR
The primary component of the FreeStar Pro module is Freescale’s third generation ZigBee platform. It incorporates a
complete, low power, 2.4 GHz radio frequency transceiver, 32-bit ARM7TDMI-based microprocessor, hardware acceleration
for both IEEE 802.15.4 MAC and AES security plus a full suite of processor peripherals.
The MC13224V architecture offers superior processing power for ZigBee applications. The core operates up to 26 MHz.
An 80 kByte ROM is utilized for the low level IEEE 802.15.4 MAC and PHYsical layer commands. This off loads the Flash
memory, leaving more space for the end user application. The MC13224V supports 128 kBytes of Flash memory. The
program code is mirrored in 96 kBytes of RAM for faster execution by the processor core. A full set of peripherals and Direct
Memory Access (DMA) capability for transceiver packet data are also included.
In addition, the MC13224V provides extensive power savings options. options, including low current sleep modes allowing
for maximum operating life when battery-powered.
ANTENNA
FreeStar Pro modules include an integrated PCB trace antenna. An optional MMCX connector can be specied, enabling
connection to a 50-ohm external antenna of the user’s choice. See Ordering Information on page 1.
The PCB antenna employs an F-Antenna topology that is compact and supports an omni-directional radiation pattern.
To maximize antenna efciency, an adequate ground plane must be provided on the host PCB. Correctly positioned, the
ground plane on the host board under the module will contribute signicantly to antenna performance.
The position of the module on the host board and overall design of the product enclosure contribute to antenna perfor-
mance. Poor design affects radiation patterns and can result in reection, diffraction, and/or scattering of the transmitted
signal.
Here are some design guidelines to help ensure antenna performance:
Never place the ground plane or route copper traces directly underneath the antenna portion of the module.
Never place the antenna close to metallic objects.
In the overall design, ensure that wiring and other components are not placed near the antenna.
Do not place the antenna in a metallic or metallized plastic enclosure.
Keep plastic enclosures 1cm or more from the antenna in any direction.

MODES OF OPERATION
FreeStar Pro power management is controlled through the Freescale MC13224V’s Clock and Reset Module (CRM). The
CRM is a dedicated module to handle clock, reset, and power management functions including control of the power regula-
tors. All these functions have direct impact on attaining the lowest power.
The FreeStar Pro module supports three modes of operation: Active, Doze and Hibernation. The latter two modes are the
low-power sleep modes.
Active Mode
In this mode all functions / features are operating normally.
Doze Mode
Doze mode provides signicant reduction in power consumption while still maintaining a high degree of sleep timing accu-
racy. In Doze mode, the reference oscillator of the processor continues to operate normally.
Hibernation Mode
Hibernation mode provides the greatest reduction in power consumption however the sleep timing accuracy is not as pre-
cise as in Doze mode.
The CRM manages the recovery from the low-power modes, similar to power-up from reset, providing regulator and clock
management.
The module can be awoken from the low-power modes in 3 ways, wake-up can occur:
On external interrupts through any of the 4 Keyboard Interface inputs
From internal interrupts
On the Real Time (wake-up) timer interrupt
For more detail information on modes of operation refer to Freescale’s MC13224V datasheet available at
Freescale’s website (www.freescale.com)

POWER AMPLIFIER
The FreeStar Pro module incorporates a high performance Power Amplier from NEC Electronics.
Power Amplier Control Line
FreeStar Pro modules include a separate 1.8V regulator supplying a bias that enables consistent module output performance
over the wide operating range. To prevent excessive sleep current draw, this regulator should be disabled when the module is
placed into sleep mode.The voltage regulator is controlled by GPIO42 (ANT1), setting GPIO42 high enables the regulator while
setting GPIO42 low disables the regulator. See the table below for the Turn on Time requirements for the voltage regulator.
SPECIFICATIONS — GPIO42
Parameter Min Typ Max Unit
Regulator enable voltage 0.95 V
Regulator disable voltage 0.40 V
Turn on Time for VOUT=1.8V (Default) 105 200 µsec
For the TX_ON and RX_ON pins, the function table is as follows:
Parameter TX Mode RX Mode
TX_ON High Low
RX_ON Low High
Other Notes:
• The GPIO43 (ANT2) pin is not used and is left unconnected.
• Due to the long turn on time (105µs) of the regulator, the regulator is enabled or ON all the time with the
execption of sleep mode.
• The RF switch uses both the TX_ON and RX_ON outputs as control inputs.
• The PA uses the TX_ON line as the control input.
RF Output Power Setting
In order to comply with emissions requirements, the Freestar PRO module must operate at reduced power settings on
channels 11,12, and 26. The rmware provided with the modules limits users to Test Tool power step 4 maximum on
channels 11 & 12 and power step 1 on channel 26. The resulting maximum RF output power using these power setting is
10dBm on channels 11 & 12, and -1dBm on channel 26.
In addition to restricting power, the rmware also limits the maximum data payload to 106 bytes for any transmitted packet.
INTERFACE
The FreeStar Pro module has all major pins routed to the castellation connectors, this includes, but is not limited, to the pins for
JTAG, serial communication, A/D, etc.

Achieve the brightest possible solder llets with a good shape and low contact angle.
Pb-Free Soldering Paste
Use of “No Clean” soldering paste is strongly recommended, as it does not require cleaning after the soldering process.
Note: The quality of solder joints on the castellations (‘half vias’) where they contact the host board should meet the appropriate IPC
Specication. See IPC-A-610-D Acceptability of Electronic Assemblies, section 8.2.4 Castellated Terminations.”
Cleaning
In general, cleaning the populated modules is strongly discouraged. Residuals under the module cannot be easily removed
with any cleaning process.
Cleaning with water can lead to capillary effects where water is absorbed into the gap between the host board and
the module. The combination of soldering ux residuals and encapsulated water could lead to short circuits between
neighboring pads. Water could also damage any stickers or labels.
Cleaning with alcohol or a similar organic solvent will likely ood soldering ux residuals into the two housings, which is
not accessible for post-washing inspection. The solvent could also damage any stickers or labels.
Ultrasonic cleaning could damage the module permanently.
The best approach is to consider using a “no clean” soldering paste and eliminate the post-soldering cleaning step.
Optical Inspection
After soldering the Module to the host board, consider optical inspection to check the following:
Proper alignment and centering of the module over the pads.
Proper solder joints on all pads.
Excessive solder or contacts to neighboring pads, or vias.
Repeating Reow Soldering
Only a single reow soldering process is encouraged for host boards.
