Specific Requirements
Overall Description
2.1.
Product Perspective
This Radio module version is constrained to 902-928MHz, 0dBm to 5dBm, FSK modulation and some
restriction on maximum duty cycle if secondary antennas are used.
The Radio modules is to achieve full interchangeability between product model lines, maintaining mechanical
and software interfaces as well as physical dimensions is a general objective.
2.1.1.
User Interfaces
All interface between this module and the User will be software controlled by the product hosting this
module. Features such as Frequency, Power and Modulation are all controlled by the Host device.
2.1.2.
Hardware Interfaces
This product will have two hardware interfaces, these are the RF Port and a 50 pin I/O connector
carrying the microcontroller interface and power lines.
The 50 pin interface will have a
•
4 wire serial interface, consisting of Clock in, Data out, Data in and Load.
•
Power: 3V3 and E2Prom 3-5V
•
I2C interface to store personality.
•
Data I/O 1 wire out 1 wire in
•
Chip enable 1 wire.
2.1.3.
Software Interfaces
This module will require the configuration of Data Registers by the operating firmware that set the
operating parameters.
The AE system will provide the operational parameters to the operating firmware.

2.3.
Specific Requirements
User Characteristics
Operators: Require no knowledge of this part, all configuration is taken care of in the engineered product.
Technicians: The programming of this device is effected by the connected encoder, the encoder can choose to
program the device according to it’s own programming or it can take the configuration table from the eeprom
on the radio module.
Therefore the radio module may be independently programmed with the register table, or programmed by the
controller housing it.
2.4.
Constraints
This subsection describes any items that limit the developer’s options. These include:
• FCC Part 15 rules
• EN301-489
• Interconnectivity compatibility with URM physical interface.
• Interconnectivity compatibility with URM programming interface.
• Physical size for interchangeability with Unity products and current Cattron Toggle and Paddle.
• RF Connector type MMCX
• Limitation of Human body exposure.
2.5.
Assumptions and Dependencies
It is assumed that this device may need to be revised if any of the constraint’s change.
Any actual changes will require further FCC submissions for approvals.

Specific Requirements
Software Interface Requirements
Software requirements are generally as required to implement the interface indicated above, more
specifically
The RXD and TXD lines will need to have a direct microprocessor interface with baud rates able to cope
with the maximum communication rate, a variable dependant on operating mode, this version is limited
to 4,000baud.
Power Amplifier control PA-ON may be implemented through a latch, (further power control is
available through the Synthesizer control registers.)
Standby will power down the RF device and can be implemented through a latch.
The I2C interface has no specific speed requirements but security of data transferred shall be verified.
