Introduction This chapter introduces the NXP JN5179 USB Dongle (OM15021), which provides a hardware development platform for wireless microcontroller applications with a USB interface. 1.1 Overview The JN5179 USB Dongle features a JN5179 wireless microcontroller and allows communication with this JN5179 device from a USB connection. The JN5179 device can act as a node of a wireless network. Thus, the dongle provides an easy way of interfacing a host machine (such as a PC) to a wireless network based on the IEEE802.15.4, ZigBee Smart Energy or ZigBee-Home Automation networking protocol. An FTDI device provides the USB connection between the host machine and the JN5179 device, which in turn provides the radio interface to the wireless network. Typical uses of the dongle include:  A complete and stable hardware environment for the development of IEEE802.15.4, ZigBee Smart Energy and ZigBee-Home Automation networking applications, facilitating an accelerated time-to-market for wireless network products  The basis of a packet sniffer for IEEE 802.15.4-based wireless communications  A means of integrating the host machine into a wireless network, typically as the network Coordinator The small-footprint PCB of the dongle provides all the necessary components for a wireless microcontroller with access to a USB connection. All RF layout and decoupling issues are handled by the design of this dongle. Therefore, this design is ready for application development without the necessity of hardware development. The JN5179 USB dongle, shown Fig 1, is supplied in the JN5179-EK005 Evaluation Kit. Fig 1. JN5179 USB dongle (OM15021)

JN5179 USB dongle hardware blocks 2.3 Hardware components The hardware components on the board are described in the following sub-sections.  JN5179 wireless microcontroller – see section 2.3.1  FTDI FT230XS driver device – see section 2.3.2  LEDs – see section 2.3.3 2.3.1 JN5179 device The JN5179 circuit on the board is based around the standard JN5179-001-M00 module. However, it is built on a 2-layer board, as the DIOs do not need to be externally available. The JN5179 device uses an integrated antenna on the PCB of the dongle. 2.3.2 FT230XS device The FT230XS device is connected to the USB connector and acts as an interface between the PC and the JN5179 device. The FT230XS will enumerate on the PC as a virtual COM port connected directly to UART0 on the JN5179 device. The IO controls C2 and C3 in the FT230XS device need to be set to ’GPIO Mode’ to allow the RESET and PGM signals to operate correctly. To do this, execute the following instructions. 1. Download the application FT_Prog from the FTDI website www.ftdichip.com 2. Insert the JN5179 USB Dongle into a USB port of your computer and wait for the device to enumerate 3. Start FT_Prog and click Scan and Parse (the magnifying glass button) 4. Update the IO controls C2 and C3 to I/O MODE – see Fig 4 aaa-021250XTAL32 MHz2.4 GHzRADIOINCLUDINGDIVERSITYWATCHDOGTIMERVOLTAGEBROWNOUTO-QPSKMODEMIEEE802.15.4MACACCELERATOR128-BIT AESENCRYPTIONACCELERATORPOWERMANAGEMENTEEPROMARM Cortex-M3RAM FLASHSPI-BUS MASTERAND SLAVEI2C-BUS MASTERAND SLAVEDIOSLEEP COUNTER6 CHAN10 BIT ADCSUPPLY ANDTEMP SENSORS6 x PWMPLUS TIMER2 x UART10 V to 3.6 V SWITCHED MODEPOWER SUPPLYMATCHING4 MBIT SERIAL FLASHMEMORYFT230XS USBIntegratedantenna

Program devices window 2.3.3 LEDs There are two surface-mounted LEDs that can be controlled by the JN5179 wireless microcontroller (see Fig 2 for locations):  LED D1 (orange)  LED D2 (green) Both LEDs are connected to DIO14 and DIO15. These DIOs can be used to control the LEDs as indicated in the Table 1. Table 1. DIO control of LEDs DIO14 Low High DIO15 Low D1: Off D1: Off D2: Off D2: On High D1: On D1: Off D2: Off D2: Off 3. Flash programming When the JN5179 USB dongle is powered up, it attempts to run an application from the internal Flash memory of the JN5179 device. This may be a self-contained application that sends and receives wireless data, and which does not need to communicate with the host. Alternatively, it may communicate via the USB with an application running on the

In order to program an application binary into Flash memory, the JN51xx Production Flash Programmer can be used, which is described in the JN51xx Production Flash Programmer User Guide (JN-UG-3099). This programming utility will place the JN5179 into its programming mode. It will then download the program to the Flash memory and reset the JN5179 device, causing the application to be executed. 4.

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. WARNING! FCC radiation exposure statement: This portable equipment with its integrated antenna complies with FCC’s RF radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment. To maintain compliance follow the instructions below;
