MeshConnect™ ModulePage 5CEL's MeshConnect modules include an integrated Printed Circuit Board (PCB) trace antenna. An optional u.FL connector can be specied, providing 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 PCB (but not directly under the F-Antenna). Correctly positioned, the ground plane on the host PCB board under the module will contribute signicantly to the 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 metalized plastic enclosure.   •  Keep plastic enclosures 1cm or more from the antenna in any direction.For optimum antenna performance, the MeshConnect modules should be mounted with the PCB trace antenna overhanging the edge of the host board. To further improve performance, a ground plane may be placed on the host board under the module, up to the antenna. The installation of an uninterrupted ground plane on a layer directly beneath the module will also allow you to run traces under this layer. CEL can provide assistance with your PCB layout.There are three power down modes in the ZIC2410. Each mode can be set using the PDMODE [1:0] bits in the PDCON register and power down modes can be started by setting the PDSTART bit to 1. Each mode has a different current consumption and wake-up sources, please refer to the ZIC2410 datasheet for further information on the available power down modes.. Table 8 describes the three power down modes.

MeshConnect™ ModulePage 6POWER AMPLIFIERVOICE CODECSOFTWARE TOOLSThe MeshConnect module does not incorporate an external Power Amplier and therefore the RF output port is connected directly (through matching components) to the RF antenna. As CEL’s ZIC2410 IEEE 802.15.4 / ZigBee transceiver already offers the industry’s best link budget at 106 dB, even without an external PA the MeshConnect can maintain wireless connection over long distance (3000 ft line-of-sight). INTERFACEThe MeshConnect has all major communication interfaces routed from the ZIC2410 to the module edge connectors:   • UART1 & UART 2   • I2S   • SPI ZIC2410 includes three voice codec algorithms: μ-law, a-law and ADPCM.The μ-law algorithm is a companding algorithm primarily used in the digital telecommunication systems of North America and Japan. As with other companding algorithms, its purpose is to reduce the dynamic range of an audio signal. In the analog domain this can increase the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) achieved during transmission and in the digital domain, it can reduce the quantization error (hence increasing signal to quantization noise ratio). These SNR improvements can be traded for reduced bandwidth and equivalent SNR instead. The a-law algorithm is a standard companding algorithm used in European digital communications systems to optimize/modify the dynamic range of an analog signal for digitizing. The a-law algorithm provides a slightly larger dynamic range than the μ-law at the cost of worse proportional distortion for small signals. Adaptive DPCM (ADPCM) is a variant of DPCM (Differential (or Delta) pulse-code modulation) that varies the size of the quantization step, to allow further reduction of the required bandwidth for a given signal-to-noise ratio. DPCM encodes the PCM values as differences between the current and the previous value. For audio this type of encoding reduces the num-ber of bits required per sample by about 25% compared to PCM.CEL offers complete SW tools for MeshConnect that customers need to create their ZigBee application.

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.Wave Soldering If a wave soldering process is required on the host boards due to the presence of leaded components, only a single wave soldering process is encouraged.
MeshConnect™ ModulePage 14PROCESSING (Continued)AGENCY CERTIFICATIONSHand SolderingHand soldering is possible. Use a soldering iron temperature setting equivalent to 350°C, follow IPC recommendations/ reference document IPC-7711.Rework The MeshConnect Module can be unsoldered from the host board. Use of a hot air rework tool and hot plate for pre-heating from underneath is recommended. Avoid overheating. Warning Never attempt a rework on the module itself, e.g. replacing individual components. Such actions will terminate warranty coverage.Additional GroundingAttempts to improve module or system grounding by soldering braids, wires, or cables onto the module RF shield cover is done at the customers own risk. The numerous ground pins at the module perimeter should be sufcient for optimum  immunity to external RF interference.FCC Compliance Statement (Part 15.19) Section 7.15 of RSS-GENThis device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules.
