This document describes the electrical and wiring considerations when interfacing the ProFLEX02 module with a host board. 1.2 Audience This document is intended to be read by engineers and technical management. A general knowledge of common engineering practices is assumed. 1.3 1.4 Applicable Documents ProFLEX02 Datasheet ProFLEX02 Host Protocol User’s Guide Revision History Date 12-7-2010 Change Description Initial release.

The LEDs and USER buttons are needed for Ping Pong Range Test built into the LSR firmware. The LED’s are also used during normal operation, and flash to indicate module status (UART activity, RF activity, and heartbeat). The reset (nRESET) pin (14) is active low. On the ProFLEX01 module it is pulled high with a 47kΩ resistor. To reset the module, pull the pin low to ground for at least 2μS. This is necessary to ensure a proper reset of the module. In order to wake the module from sleep mode, an additional input signal (WAKEUP) with interrupt capability on the ProFLEX01 module needs to be used. For simplicity it is recommended that this be connected to the Host UART RX signal. This connection is shown in Figure 1 To wake the ProFLEX01 module out of sleep simply send a dummy byte to the module. See Section Error! Reference source not found. for further information on wakeup from sleep options.

However if concerned with compatibility with other LSR ModFLEX modules see section 3.4 for more information.

The outer shell of the mating plug can bend or deform easily and not make good electrical contact, thus degrading RF performance - sometimes significantly. Figure 4 U.FL connector A special tool exists to safely remove the U.FL cable. LSR recommends the Hirose Electronics tool, part number U.FL-LP(V)-N-2. See picture below for what the tool looks like and how to use it. Figure 5 U.FL extraction tool The information in this document is subject to change without notice.

When designing the carrier board it is recommended to include two matching alignment holes with copper pads surrounding the holes on the bottom side of the board. The purpose of the copper pads allows for soldering alignment pins when the carrier board is used as an alignment fixture, which is described in the following sections. Figure 7 Alignment holes on module and carrier board The information in this document is subject to change without notice.

When using the carrier board as an alignment fixture the alignment pins can be soldered to the bare carrier board to prevent them from falling out. Then by adding standoffs to the bare carrier board you have created an alignment fixture. Figure 8 Alignment fixture overview Step 1: Make an alignment fixture by soldering two Mill-Max 3120-2 series pins or equivalent into the PCB being used for the alignment fixture. For spacing, use 1/8” standoffs between this board and the target carrier board. Figure 9 Constructing an alignment fixture Step 2: Carefully place the target carrier board through the pins on the alignment fixture.

To use the modules interchangeably on a carrier board, the designs outlined below must be employed. Option 1: The carrier board should be designed so the module overhangs the edge of the board 0.23” as pictured below. Figure 12 Option 2: Design an opening in the carrier board. A minimum opening is shown below. Figure 13 The information in this document is subject to change without notice.

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. 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. FCC CAUTION: Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate this equipment.

To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type and its gain should be so chosen that the equivalent isotropically radiated power (e.i.r.p.) is not more than that permitted for successful communication. This device has been designed to operate with the antennas listed below, and having a maximum gain of 2.0 dB. Antennas not included in this list or having a gain greater than 2.0 dB are strictly prohibited for use with this device. The required antenna impedance is 50 ohms. Nearson S131CL-6-PX-2450S Embedded PCB trace antenna 4.3 OEM Responsibilities to comply with FCC and Industry Canada Regulations The ProFLEX01 Module has been certified for integration into products only by OEM integrators under the following conditions: 1. The antenna(s) must be installed such that a minimum separation distance of 20cm is maintained between the radiator (antenna) and all persons at all times. 2. The transmitter module must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter. As long as the two conditions above are met, further transmitter testing will not be required. However, the OEM integrator is still responsible for testing their end-product for any additional compliance requirements required with this module installed (for example, digital device emissions, PC peripheral requirements, etc.). IMPORTANT NOTE: In the event that these conditions cannot be met (for certain configurations or co-location with another transmitter), then the FCC and Industry Canada authorizations are no longer considered valid and the FCC ID and IC Certification Number cannot be used on the final product. In these circumstances, the OEM integrator will be responsible for re-evaluating the end product (including the transmitter) and obtaining a separate FCC and Industry Canada authorization.

If the FCC ID and IC Certification Number are 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. In that case, the final end product must be labeled in a visible area with the following: “Contains Transmitter Module FCC ID: TFB-PROFLEX1” “Contains Transmitter Module IC: 5969A-PROFLEX1” or “Contains FCC ID: TFB-PROFLEX1” “Contains IC: 5969A-PROFLEX1” The OEM of the ProFLEX01 Module must only use the approved antenna(s) listed above, which have been certified with this module. The OEM integrator has to be aware not to provide information to the end user regarding how to install or remove this RF module or change RF related parameters in the user manual of the end product. The user manual for the end product must include the following information in a prominent location: To comply with FCC and Industry Canada RF radiation exposure limits for general population, the antenna(s) used for this transmitter must be installed such that a minimum separation distance of 20cm is maintained between the radiator (antenna) and all persons at all times and must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or Revision History The information in this document is subject to change without notice.
