MeshConnect™ EM357 Mini ModulesDESCRIPTION CEL’s MeshConnect™ EM357 Mini Modules combine high performance RF solutions with the market's premier Zig-Bee® stack. Available in low and high output power options (+8dBm and +20dBm), these modules can accommodate variable range and performance requirements. The tiny module footprint makes them suitable for a wide range of ZigBee applications. The MeshConnect EM357 Mini Mod-ules are certied and qualied, enabling customers to ac-celerate time to market by greatly reducing the design and certication phases of development.CEL's MeshConnect EM357 Mini Modules (ZICM357SP0, ZICM357SP2) are based on the Ember EM357 Zigbee compliant SOC radio IC. The IC is a 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 the baseband modem, a hardwired MAC and an embedded 32-bit ARM® Cortex™-M3 microcontroller with internal RAM (12kB) and Flash (192kB) memory. The device provides numerous general-purpose I/O pins and peripheral functions such as timers and UARTs.

MeshConnect™ EM357 Mini ModulesPage 4TRANSCEIVER IC CEL’s MeshConnect EM357 Mini Modules use the Ember EM357 transceiver IC. This IC incorporates the RF transceiver with the baseband modem, a hardwired MAC, and an embedded ARM® Cortex™-M3 microcontroller, offering an excellent low cost high performance solution for all IEEE 802.15.4 / ZigBee applications.For more information about the Ember EM357 IC, visit http://www.ember.com ANTENNA CEL’s MeshConnect EM357 Mini Modules include an integrated Printed Circuit Board (PCB) trace antenna. An optional conguration with a Castellation pin is available for a connection to a 50-ohm external antenna of the user’s choice. However use of an external antenna is not covered by the module's certication. See Ordering Information on page 1. The PCB antenna employs a topology that is compact and highly efcient. To maximize range, 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 module PCB Antenna). The position of the module on the host board and overall design of the product enclosure contribute to antenna performance. Poor design affects radiation patterns and can result in reection, diffraction, and/or scattering of the transmitted signal.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 (a minimum of 1.5" x 1.5" is recommended). 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. 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.Under Industry Canada regulations, this radio transmitter may only operate using an antenna of a type and maximum (or lesser) gain approved for the transmitter by Industry Canada. To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type and its gain should be so chosen that the equivalent isotropically radiated power (e.i.r.p.) is not more than that necessary for successful communication.Conformément à la réglementation d'Industrie Canada, le présent émetteur radio peut fonctionner avec une antenne d'un type et d'un gain maximal (ou inférieur) approuvé pour l'émetteur par Industrie Canada. Dans le but de réduire les risques de brouillage radioélectrique à l'intention des autres utilisateurs, il faut choisir le type d'antenne et son gain de sorte que la puissance isotrope rayonnée équivalente (p.i.r.e.) ne dépasse pas l'intensité nécessaire à l'établissement d'une communication satisfaisante. CEL’s MeshConnect EM357 High Power Module (ZICM357SP2) includes a Power Amplier (PA). This PA delivers high efciency, high gain, and high output power (Pout = +20.0 dBm TYP) to provide an extended range and reliable transmission for fewer nodes in a network.  CEL’s MeshConnect EM357 Mini Modules are ideal platforms for the EmberZNet PRO, the industry’s most deployed and eld proven ZigBee compliant stack supporting the ZigBee PRO feature Set. EmberZNET PRO is a complete ZigBee protocol software package containing all the elements required for mesh networking applications. For more information regarding the software development for this IC, visit http://www.ember.comCEL provides reference software that runs multiple functions and executes various commands. The rmware allows the execution of IEEE 802.15.4 communication, validation and manufacturing tests. For example, users can setup a simple ZigBee Point-to-Point network to perform Range and Packet Error Rate (PER) tests. The software can also place the module in various operating modes, which allows for setting and/or testing various parameters.The ZICM357SP0 uses the transceiver's Primary RF ports for transmitting and should use power mode 1.The ZICM357SP2 uses the transceiver's Alternate RF ports for transmitting and should use power mode 2.

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 the latest IPC-A-610 Acceptability of Electronic Assemblies, Castellated Terminations section.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” solder 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.Only a single reow soldering process is encouraged for host boards. 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.Hand Soldering Hand soldering is possible.
