Page 1MeshConnect™ Module SeriesDESCRIPTION CEL's MeshConnect™ Module Series provides high performance and low cost 2.4 GHz IEEE 802.15.4 / ZigBee modules for a broad range of wireless networks.  The MeshConnect certied and quali-ed modules, enable customer to accelerate time to market by greatly reducing design and certication phases of development.CEL's  MeshConnect™  radio  modules  leverage  the  advanced features of the MeshConnect™ Integrated Circuit (IC). The IC is a true single-chip solution, compliant with ZigBee specications and IEEE 802.15.4, a complete wireless solution for all ZigBee applications. The IC consists of an RF transceiver with baseband modem, a hardwired MAC and an embedded 8051 microcon-troller with internal Flash memory. The device provides numerous general-purpose I/O pins, peripheral functions such as timers and UARTs and is one of the rst devices to provide an embedded Voice CODEC. This device is also ideal for low power applications.The original MeshConnect module delivers excellent performance at a surprisingly low cost.  The module’s +6dBm output power means better range, more reliable transmission and fewer nodes in your network. It also makes these modules ideal for applica-tions where cost and power constraints do not allow for external power  ampliers  or  peripheral  range  extension  components.The MeshConnect Extended Range module adds a power ampli-er (PA) and low noise amplier (LNA) to increase range to over two miles - plus more reliable transmission and fewer nodes in your network.  It is especially useful for open outdoor applica-tions where the nodes are physically far apart, or for indoor use where the nodes have to operate in a noisy RF environment.  The Extended Range Module’s outstanding +123 dBm budget link ensures high quality connections even in such harsh environments.

MeshConnect™ Module SeriesPage 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 will contribute signicantly to the antenna performance (it should not be directly under the F-Antenna). 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 IC. 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 IC datasheet for further information on the available power down modes. Table 8 describes the three power down modes.

MeshConnect™ Module SeriesPage 6POWER AMPLIFIERVOICE CODECSOFTWARE TOOLSThe orginal 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 IC 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 (3,000 ft line-of-sight).The Extended Range module adds both an PA and LNA to optimize RF performance.  The NEC uPG2250 PA enable the Extended Range module to output up to +20 dBm transmit power.  In the receive path the addition of the UPC8233 LNA boosts the already sensitive receiver up to -103.5 dBm.  The Extended Range link budget boasts a very robust 123.5 dBm enabling a line of sight range over 2 miles. INTERFACEThe MeshConnect has all major communication interfaces routed from the IC to the module edge connectors:   • UART1 & UART 2   • I2S   • SPI The MeshConnect IC 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, allowing 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 applications this type of encoding reduces the number 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.

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 customer's 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.
