Module SRF309 1.0 SRF309 Introduction The SRF309 receive/transmit module (RTM) is based on a single-chip radio frequency (RF) transceiver integrated circuit (RFIC), an Atmel AT86RF212B. The SRF309 RTM is intended to be integrated into Cervis Inc. products, providing a wireless RF connectivity option. The SRF309 RTM operates in the 915 MHz ISM band, using spread spectrum modulation with a maximum conducted RF transmit power of +8.60dBm at the antenna port. The RFIC generates RF signals compliant with the Zigbee standard, IEEE 802.15.4-2006. The spread spectrum technique is direct sequence (DSSS), the modulation method is binary phase shift keying (BPSK). The RFIC has internal control registers that the host application can access via a serial peripheral (SPI) bus. These registers control all aspects of how the RFIC is used, which must be compliant with all applicable rules and regulations. The SRF309 RTM is interoperable various other Cervis Inc. RTMs that use the same modulation and message data structure. Interoperability with non-Cervis RTMs, while possible, is not supported. The SRF309 RTM is most commonly applied in half-duplex master/slave systems: the master transmits a message to a slave, the slave transmits a reply to the master. Other operating modes are possible, provided that applicable rules and regulations are not violated. The SRF309 RTM may be realized in various PCB shapes, some with non-RF circuits applicable to the requirements of particular hot applications. Mechanical variations include: 07440305-9H-12R “Type 1” (tested, pictured) 07610304-9H “Type 2” (not yet tested) 07420305-9H-12R “Type 3” (not yet tested) 14001301 “Type 4” (not yet tested) 1.1 SRF309 Features FCC Part 15 certified IC Certified CE certified 905-925 MHz Operation 2 MHz Selectable Channels Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum (DSSS) Binary Phase Shift Keying (BPSK) modulation (tested) 40 kbps Data Rate (tested) Up to +8.60dBm Output Power (tested) IEEE 802.15.4-2006 messaging SPI host interface Simple power requirements: 3.0-3.3V low noise regulated, 20mA U081.0.9-SRF309 User Manual User Manual Figure 1.

Insert image of 14001301 when available Figure 4. 14001301, component side U081.0.9-SRF309 User Manual User Manual 2.0 SRF309 Installation When integrating an SRF309 RTM into a host application, the user must provide all text in the “FCC Statements” and “Industry Canada Statements” in the host application’s user manual (see Forward Material). The text must not be modified in any way and presented in a conspicuous manner that the end user can be reasonably expected to access. When integrating the SRF309 RTM into host application hardware, the user must properly connect all the circuits identified in Table 1 to suitable host application signals. The host application firmware must properly control the RTM to ensure that emitted RF signals comply with all applicable regulatory approvals. The SRF309 RTM is always provided with an approved type of antenna, either internal fixed or external replaceable. If a fixed internal antenna is provided as part of the RTM, the on-board coaxial cable connectors are not populated. If the module is assembled for use with an external antenna, one of the on-board coaxial cable connector positions will be populated. The choice of the particular type of coaxial connector that is installed will be decided by the designer of the host application. The on-board connector is not accessible to users, so it does not need to be unique. When provided, external replaceable antennas always have a unique connector such as: RPN, U.FL/IPEX, RP-SMA, RP-BNC or RP-TNC. A suitable coaxial cable jumper with appropriate connectors must be used to connect the SRF309 RTM external antenna port to the external antenna. The details of a particular host application will affect the design of the jumper coax, but the external connector must always be of an acceptable unique type. The coaxial cable used to make the jumper between the RTM and the external antenna mounting position must be suitable for use at 915 MHz and have 50 Ohm impedance. Low loss cable such as RG-316 is suggested, although signal loss will be small if the jumper length is short. External coaxial cables may be used to help mount the replaceable external antenna in a more useful location. Such cable must have appropriate unique connectors and must be made from low loss 50 Ohm coaxial cable. Cables equivalent to LMR-195 are suitable for lengths up to 30 feet. Longer cables must have suitably lower signal loss, typically using larger cable such as LMR240, LMR-300, or larger (or equivalent). At some point, a practical limit is reached where losses in extension cables negate any gains from relocating the antenna. 3.0 SRF309 Tune-up Procedure There is no tune-up procedure. The module contains no adjustable components. Proper RF operation of the module is verified during the manufacturing process using suitable equipment and methods. 4.0 SRF309 Electrical Characteristics 4.1 Supply Voltage and Current The SRF309 RTM (the components under the RF shield) requires the host application to provide a low noise (linear regulator as opposed to a switching regulator) regulated 3.0-3.3 VDC source that can provide 20mA without losing regulation. The RTM does not provide under-voltage, over-voltage, or reverse polarity protection so use caution when applying power. The RTM contains a low noise linear 2.5V regulator (Fig 1.”U2”, top-center) that buffers the analog power to the RFIC RF section. The RFIC has another internal low noise 1.8V regulator (see the data sheet for Atmel AT86RF212B). 2014Cervis, Inc. Module SRF309 All external connection pints designate as signal “GND” should be connected to the host application “GND” circuit so as to maintain as low a resistive and reactive impedance as practical. The PCB hosting the RTM should be fabricated with low impedance copper floods that connect to “GND”. The SRF309 RTM can safely operate with a supply voltage over the range of 3.0-3.3V with minimal changes in RF performance. Testing was performed at 3.3V, the preferred supply voltage. Some implementations of the SRF309 module may have additional non-RF functions. The additional circuits may draw current in addition to what the SRF309 RF circuits use. 4.2 Operating Current The SRF309 RTM has four primary operating conditions that draw differing amounts of current from to 3.0-3.3V power source: Off PLL_ON RX TX RFIC is powered down, minimal load RFIC is ready to transmit or receive, ~5mA RFIC is receiving a message, ~12mA RFIC is transmitting, ~15-20mA, depending on TX output power In TX mode the operating current may be less than the maximum if the drive to the external PA is reduced because the full +8.60dBm RF output power is not required. 4.3 SPI Interface The SPI interface between the RFIC (slave) and the host application (master) microcontroller requires four signals: SCLK – The serial data clock from the SPI master. Must be less than 8 MHz. MOSI – Serial data from the SPI master. MISO – Serial data from the SPI slave. RF_CS – Chip select from the SPI master. The SPI controller setting must be established by the host application microcontroller to be compatible with the SPI interface timing specified by the RFIC data sheet. 5.0 SRF309 RF Characteristics 5.1 General RF Information The RFIC used in the SRF309 RTM implements RF modulation modes and timings in compliance with IEEE 802.15.4-2006. The RFIC implements additional proprietary RF modulation modes. Details may be found in the AT86RF212B RFIC data sheet. The SRF309 general spread spectrum scheme is DSSS. The modulation type is BPSK. The data rate is 40kbps. 5.2 RF Exposure Considerations The antennas used with the SRF309 RT module should be positioned to minimize possible RF exposure hazards. Handheld applications of the SRF309 RT module must maintain an antenna separation distance >15mm when used in a normal operating pose. Mobile applications of the 10 U081.0.9-SRF309 User Manual User Manual SFR309 RT module must maintain an antenna separation distance >20cm away from areas that are likely to be occupied by human body parts. These separation requirements must be included in end-user manuals for host applications that include an SRF309 RT module. 2014Cervis, Inc. 11 Module SRF309 Visit our Web site at: www.cervisinc.com 2014 Cervis, Inc.
