N5 ANT SoC System Module Series
1. N5 System Module Series
The N5 module series uses Nordic Semiconductor’s nRF51422, the industry’s first System on Chip (SoC) solution
that is able to support ANT standalone or ANT/BLUETOOTH low energy dual mode operation depending on the
loaded protocol stack with advantages in power, size, cost, speed and security built directly into the protocol layer.
The nRF51422 integrates a 32-bit ARM® Cortex™ M0 CPU with 256KB flash, 16KB RAM, and analog and digital
peripherals. Benefits will reach consumers in the form of new products with even longer battery life, expanded
functionality and security, further simplified operation and overall value.
Nordic Semiconductor protocol stacks are known as SoftDevices. SoftDevices are pre-compiled, pre-linked binary
files, which can be programmed and are downloadable from the Nordic Semiconductor’s web. The nRF51422 and
N5 system module series support the S210, ANT 8-channel protocol stack, and the S310, ANT 8-channel /
BLUETOOTH low energy peripheral protocol stack.
The N5 system module series starts with N548M8CB (or ANTN548M8CB) in a 14.0mm x 9.8mm x 2.0mm LGA
(Land Array Grid) package. A compact design meeting the industrial requirement to go small, light and wearable,
the N548M8CB is also a turnkey system hardware solution including antenna, onboard 32k and 16M crystal clock,
DC-DC converter and 24 GPIOs with 6 analogue inputs.
The N548M8CB modules are pre-programmed with the S210 SoftDevice and reference ANT network processor
application code in order to function as a generic ANT RF module when connected to an application controller.
Both pre-programmed images can be easily replaced via the onboard SWD interface pins using off-the-shelf ARM
programmers.
Pin compatible options to Dynastream’s 20mm x 20mm AP2 or C7 modules are also available. In these options,
N548M8CB modules are soldered on carrier boards that are pin compatible to the previous modules. Current AP2
or C7 module customers can easily use these models to evaluate the hardware and upgrade their final products.
The N5 module series if loaded with ANT and/or BLUETOOTH Low energy stack has been certified to comply with
radio regulation or standards covering major markets include North America, Europe, Australia, New Zealand and
Japan. The N5 modules series is also qualified by the BLUETOOTH SIG.

Moisture Control
The moisture control of the module is rated at level 1 defined by IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020. The modules do not
require special storage conditions provided:
They are maintained at conditions equal to or less than 30 °C/85 % RH, and
thisisant.com
N5 ANT SoC Module Series
Page 9 of 19
They are solder reflowed at a peak body temperature which does not exceed 260 °C
To ensure good solderability of the PCB pads, it is highly recommended to always have the modules intended for
reflow well sealed when in storage.

3. Regulatory Approvals and Compliances
The N5 system module series has received regulatory approvals in the United States (FCC) and Canada (IC), and
has been verified to conform to the appropriate regulations in Europe, Australia and New Zealand, and Japan. The
module series has been qualified by BLUETOOTH SIG. Such approvals and qualification allow the user to place the
module inside a finished product and, in most cases, not require regulatory testing for an intentional radiator,
provided no changes or modifications are made to the module circuitry. This does not preclude the possibility that
some other form of authorization or testing may be required for the finished product. Changes or modifications
could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment. The end user must comply with all of the instructions
provided by the Grantee, which indicate installation and/or operating conditions necessary for compliance.
3.1
United States
The N5 system module series has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device,
pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful
interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy
and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio
communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this
equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning
the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one of the following
measures:
- Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
- Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
- Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
- Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
The N5 module series complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two
conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference
received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
The N5 module series does not contain any user-serviceable parts. Unauthorized repairs or modifications could
result in permanent damage to the equipment, and void your warranty and your authority to operate this device
under Part 15 regulations.
The N5 module series is labelled with its own FCC ID, O6R2398 (note: First Character is the letter O, not the # 0.)
If the FCC ID is not visible when the module is installed inside another device, then the outside of the device into
which the module is installed must also display a label referring to the enclosed module. This exterior label can use
wording such as the following: “Contains Transmitter Module FCC ID: O6R2398” or “Contains FCC ID: O6R2398”.
Any similar wording that expresses the same meaning may be used.
3.2
Industry Canada Compliance
The N5 system module series complies with Industry Canada licence-exempt RSS standard(s). Operation is
subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause interference, and (2) this device must
accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired operation of the device.
(Le présent appareil est conforme aux CNR d'Industrie Canada applicables aux appareils radio exempts de licence.
L'exploitation est autorisée aux deux conditions suivantes : (1) l'appareil ne doit pas produire de brouillage, et (2)
l'utilisateur de l'appareil doit accepter tout brouillage radioélectrique subi, même si le brouillage est susceptible
d'en compromettre le fonctionnement.)
thisisant.com
N5 ANT SoC Module Series
Page 11 of 19
To comply with Industry Canada regulations, it is required that product containing the N5 module series display a
label referring to the enclosed module. This exterior label can use wording similar to the following: “Contains IC:
3797A-2398”
This information shall be affixed in such a manner as not to be removable except by destruction or defacement.
The size of the lettering shall be legible without the aid of magnification but is not required to be larger than 8point font size. If the device is too small to meet this condition, the information can be included in the user manual
upon agreement with Industry Canada.
3.3
CE Declaration of Conformity
The N5 system module series is declared to be in conformance with the essential requirements and
other relevant provisions of Directive 1999/5/EC and 2011/65/EU, as a low-powered unlicensed transmitter:

Async Mode Baud Connection Example
Notes:
Module RXD and TXD connected directly to hardware USART of microcontroller.
Switches on baud rate selection pins (BR1, BR2 and BR3) are for ease of use only. They can
be connected directly to the logic level of interest.
RTS is hardware controlled on the N548 and will toggle on a per byte level. If HW flow
control is not available on MCU, the software implemented flow control must be able to
manage serial communication flow control on a p er byte level.

Byte Sync Mode Connection Example
Notes:
Module SOUT, SIN, and SCLK connected directly to hardware USART of microcontroller.
S E N needs to be on an interrupt capable I/O pin on the microcontroller. (Interrupt pins
located on Port 1&2 on the MSP430F1232)
