5 D52 ANT SoC Module Family Overview
The D52 ANT SoC Module series is built with the nRF52832 chip from Nordic Semiconductor. The family
is comprised of modules available in layouts standard to Dynastream Innovations: both M4 (outlined in
this data sheet) and smaller sized M8 modules will be available. The module family leverages the S132,
S212 and S332 SoftDevices from Nordic Semiconductor and Dynastream Innovations for ANT and
Bluetooth Smart applications.
6 D52Q ANT SoC Module Overview
Using the QFN (6x6mm) package of Nordic Semiconductor’s nRF52832 chip, the D52Q ANT SoC module
series offers support for both ANT® and Bluetooth® Smart and enables both protocols to run
concurrently, depending on the loaded protocol stack.
The D52QD2M4IA module is a 20x20x2.8mm turnkey system hardware solution including antenna,
onboard 32.768 kHz and 32 MHz crystals, DC/DC converter and 29 GPIOs with 8 analogue inputs. A
module variant that includes an optional on-board accelerometer (D52QD2M4IA-A) is also available.
The D52 modules are pre-programmed with the following software components:
S212 SoftDevice developed by and available from ANT Wireless (scalable ANT protocol stack with 15
channel support)
ANT network processor application
SoftDevices are protocol stack solutions for the nRF52 SoCs. There are multiple SoftDevice choices
available from the Dynastream and Nordic Semiconductor websites. The ANT network processor
application provides the standard ANT serial interface front-end that is connectable to an external
application controller.
The D52Q module’s pre-programmed image can be easily replaced via the onboard SWD interface pins
using off-the-shelf ARM programming tools.
The D52 module series, if loaded with the ANT and/or Bluetooth low energy stack will be (preliminary)
certified to comply with radio regulation or standards covering major markets include North America,
Europe, Australia, New Zealand and Japan. The D52 ANT SoC module series will also be (preliminary)
qualified by the BLUETOOTH SIG.
The perimeter of the D52QD2M4IA(-A) has AP2, C7 and N5 M4 compatible pin layouts appear, and a
new LGA matrix has been added to the base of the module extending further capabilities of the
nRF52832 chip (e.g., NFC, more I/O). For more information about module layout, please refer to Figure

Table 4: Accelerometer Pin Assignment
SPI or I2C can be used to communicate with the accelerometer. To use I2C, pull-up resistors will need to
be added to the appropriate pads.
For more information about D52Q pin assignments, refer to Table 3 - D52 Module Series Pin-Out.
For more information about this component including data sheet and errata, please refer to the
STMicroelectronics website:
http://www.st.com/web/en/catalog/sense_power/FM89/SC444/PF252928.
7.4 Preloaded Software

ANT Network Processor Application – Refer to Appendix A – Using the ANT Network Processor
Configuration
Figure 7 - Memory Map of D52Q Preloaded Software
7.5 D52 Module Programming
The D52 ANT SoC module series supports the following programming method:
Standard Serial Wire Debug (SWD) interface
The two software components (the SoftDevice and the application code) must be version compatible to
operate properly. Because each individual component can be reprogrammed, it is not safe to always
assume the default factory image on a module by reading the module revision mark and referring to the
history of preloaded images as summarized in Appendix C – D52Q Module Pre-Loaded Software
Versions. When versions of the software components are unclear, to ensure proper operation after
reprogramming, it is recommended that the module undergoes a full erasure (e.g. using the erase-all
option in nrfjprog.exe/nRFgo Studio) and all desired software components be explicitly programmed
onto the module.
7.5.1
Programming via SWD interface
The D52 ANT SoC Module series supports the Serial Wire Debug (SWD) interface, SWDCLK and SWDIO
(refer to Table 3 - D52 Module Series Pin-Out). Programming and debugging of the module only require
Page 14 of 20 D52Q ANT Module Datasheet, Rev 0.4
dynastream.com thisisant.com
common available tools, such as the Keil software development environment and the Segger J-Link
programmer.
Please refer to “N5 Starter Kit User Manual” from Dynastream Innovations for reference software setup
and use with ANT using the Keil software and a J-Link programmer. (Note: this documentation reference
will be updated in the final datasheet revision.)
7.5.2
Initializing the SoftDevice
The D52 module comes with a 20ppm onboard 32 kHz crystal. When initializing the SoftDevice, it is
important to set the crystal accuracy to be 20ppm. This clock source is selected when enabling the
SoftDevice via the sd_softdevice_enable command.
7.5.3
Configuring the dc/dc converter
The D52 module can make use of the DC/DC Converter on nRF52832 chips. This can improve power
consumption under certain conditions.
7.6 Design considerations
RF performance is always affected by the environment. Good design makes a product less susceptible to
adverse conditions. The recommendations in this section are guidelines only; you should thoroughly test
your products in the intended use case environments and make necessary modifications and trade-offs.
For design assistance purposes, a STEP model package and Altium library will be available for product
release.
7.6.1
M4 (D52Q) module mounting
Guidance and diagrams will be provided for final product release.
7.6.2
M6 module mounting
The mating socket is Molex 52991-0208.
7.7 Assembly Considerations
7.7.1
Moisture Control
The module is rated at level 3 (MSL3) as defined by IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020.
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.
7.7.2
Solder Stencil Design of D52Q (M4) Module
Stencil diagrams will be available for module variants for final product release.
7.7.3
Cleaning Process
The module is made using no-clean solder paste. No-clean process is recommended.
8 Regulatory Approvals and Compliance
Note: This information is pending certification. Final compliance details will be available following
certification for final release.
Page 15 of 20 D52Q ANT Module Datasheet, Rev 0.4
dynastream.com thisisant.com
The D52Q ANT SoC module series, when loaded with ANT and/or BLUETOOTH low energy stack, 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; other regions
TBD. 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.
8.1 United States
This device 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.
A host product manufacturer is responsible for ensuring compliance with the module(s) installed and fully operational. For
example, if a host product was previously authorized as an unintentional radiator under the Declaration of Conformity
procedure without containing a certified transmitter module, then a module is added, the host manufacturer is responsible
for ensuring that the host continues to be compliant with the Part 15 subpart B unintentional radiator requirements after the
module is installed and operational. Because this may depend on the details of how the module is integrated within the
host, the module grantee (the party responsible for the module grant) shall provide guidance to the host manufacturer for
ensuring compliance with the Part 15 Subpart B requirements.
This module is limited to OEM installation ONLY. The OEM Integrator is responsible for ensuring that the end-user has no
manual instructions to remove or install the module. Changes or modifications not expressly approved by Dynastream could
void the user's authority to operate the equipment.
If (1) the module’s FCC ID is not visible when installed in the host, or (2) if the host is marketed so that end users do not
have straightforward commonly used methods for access to remove the module so that the FCC ID of the module is visible;
then an additional permanent label referring to the enclosed module: “Contains Transmitter Module FCC ID: O6R3067” or
“Contains FCC ID: O6R3067” must be used. The host OEM user manual must also contain clear instructions on how end
users can find and/or access the module and the FCC ID.
8.2 Canada
This device complies with Industry Canada’s license-exempt RSSs. 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.
