It can be used as an application processor as well as a data pump in systems with an external processor. The DA14580 contains an embedded One-Time-Programmable (OTP) memory for storing Bluetooth profiles as well as custom application code. The qualified Bluetooth® Smart protocol stack, which is stored in a dedicated ROM, and the customer application software which is stored in system RAM, run on the embedded ARM Cortex M0 processor. Low leakage Retention RAM is used to store sensitive data and connection information while in Deep Sleep mode. The Radio Transceiver implements the RF part of the Bluetooth Smart protocol. Together with the Bluetooth 4.0 PHY layer, it provides a 93 dB RF link budget for reliable wireless communication. All RF blocks are supplied by on-chip low drop out regulators (LDOs). The RF port is single ended 50 , so no external balun is required. The DA14580 has dedicated hardware for the Link Layer implementation of Bluetooth® Smart and interface controllers for enhanced connectivity capabilities. The reset line of the DA14580 (pin RST) is active high. On this module the RST pin is available on module pin 21. Main debug port for the DA14580 is the JTAG. JTAG consists of two signals, SWDIO and SWCLK. The frequency tolerance specification for BLE is 50 ppm. In order to compensate ageing and offset effects, an external crystal shall have an accuracy of ±15 ppm or better. The DA14580 crystal (Y1) has a fundamental frequency of 16 MHz and load capacitance not higher than 10 pF. The crystal is located on the module itself. Also, an internal programmable capacitance bank is available in the DA14580. In this way, the crystal oscillator frequency can be tuned. For sleep mode the on chip RCX oscillator is utilized. In addition, a 32 kHz crystal (Y2) with a tolerance of 50 ppm (500 ppm max) can be assembled on the module. The crystal load capacitance shall not be higher than 10 pF. The external digital interfaces available for the module are: ● 2 UARTs with hardware flow control up to 1 MBd ● SPI interface ● I2C bus at 100 kHz, 400 kHz

The module includes 22 GPIOs (including JTAG signals) that are available externally. The interfaces are multiplexed with the GPIOs and can be enabled by appropriate programming. The DA14580 is equipped with a DC-DC converter that can be configured as either Buck or Boost. For this module, the DC-DC converter is configured as a Buck converter (C5, C2, L1, C3). The DA14580 is available in three packages: WLCSP34, QFN40 and QFN48. In this reference application the QFN40 has been used. Figure 4: DA14580 QFN40 SoC, Range Extender ver.2 module

The operation of the RF front end is controlled by the DA14580. There are two RF paths: one through the amplifier and one bypass path. The amplifier path is enabled during transmission. The RF signal passes through the PA, the low pass filter and the RF matching network. In the bypass path, the RF signal received at the antenna is driven directly to the BLE transceiver.

In this case the matching components values differ from the values of the module on the interposer. The matching values of the components are: C20= 1.2pF and C16=1pF.

This is explained due the small ground size of the board. It is recommended for Range Extender v.2 to be mounted on a pcb with bigger ground surface or when embedded to a new design to follow the dimensions in Figure 22. Figure 22: IFA antenna implementation The dimensions above are given for a typical FR1 PCB substrate, 1mm thick. The antenna length is adjusted for resonance including a 1mm plastic enclosure placed in contact with the PCB antenna. The red outline indicates the antenna footprint, i.e. required allocation of PCB space. The footprint of the antenna is available per request in dxf format.

Power system and requirements 4.5The Range Extender v.2 module is supplied by a single power supply through pins VBAT_3V. For the DA14580 SoC, the VBAT_3V voltage variations are handled by the internal DC-DC converter. The DC-DC converter’s external components are an inductor L1 (2.2 uH) and three capacitors C3, C1 and C2 (all three capacitors are equal to 1 uF). The RF power amplifier and its circuitry are supplied directly from the external power source. The module is intended for use with a +3 V coin cell battery (e.g CR2450 type). The VBAT_3V voltage range is 2.4 V to 3.0 V, whereas the absolute maximum voltage is 3.6 V. The overall current consumption in Tx mode does not exceed 17 mA @ 3.0 V supply. The current consumption by the front end circuits (amplifier) does not exceed 11 mA, whereas in extended- sleep mode the consumption of the system is expected to be in less than 1.6 uA. Figure 23: Current consumption for Advertisement frame Trimming the 16MHz Xtal 4.6For ensuring best operation of the Module, the 16MHz XTAL must be trimmed. The frequency is trimmed by two on-chip variable capacitor banks. Both capacitor banks are controlled by the same register. For trimming the XTAL apply procedure described on AN-B-0203: End product testing and programming guidelines.
