It enables the host medical device to wirelessly establish bi directional communication with other remote devices using the Philips’ 2.4GHz ROW infrastructure. Figure 1: MDL4851-MODULE Block Diagram Page 3 of 7 Host Interface The MDL4851 radio module interfaces to the host though a single I/O connector (Figure 2). Via this connector the host must supply DC power, signal ground and modulating data to the radio module. The communication between the host device and the radio module is a two wire asynchronous serial interface (Table 1).

This maximum over the air data rate is fixed by design and cannot be modified by the user. MDL4851-MODULE RF Shielding. The module contains all necessary RF shielding. The host device does not need to provide additional shielding. The available module metal enclosure is optional, it is not needed to achieve EMC compliance. Page 5 of 7 MDL4851-MODULE Mounting Considerations. The module is self-contained and can be mounted anywhere using the supplied threaded pem nuts. No special heat sinking considerations are required. There are no orientation constraints. RF Input/Output, Antenna This MDL4851 Radio Module has been designed to operate with the antennas listed below, and having a maximum gain of 2.0 dBi. Philips M4842-61400 Philips M8100-66490 These antennas cannot be replaced with an antenna of a different type. However, antennas of equivalent type and equal or lower gain to the listed antennas can be used. Antennas having a gain greater than 2.0 dBi are strictly prohibited for use with this device. The required antenna impedance is 50 ohms. The RF input and output of the MDL4851-MODULE is matched to 50 ohms. A coaxial cable brings the RF outside the metal enclosure. This cable uses a unique non-standard connector manufactured by JST (JST part number AYUI-1S-12676-221). The coaxial cable connects to a JST to reversed TNC adapter made by Amphenol (Amphenol part number 031-6101) where the antenna plugs in. The antenna is made by Radial to Philips’ specifications (Philips specifications number A-M4842-61400-1, rev A). 7.1 RF Transmitter Specifications The following table summarizes general transmitter specifications (Table 3). For complete details (including details on the receiver section) refer to ES-M4840-90145: Parameter Frequency range Specification ISM Band: 2400-2483.5MHz Radio Channel assignment 48 Radio Channel assigned from 2401.056 MHz to 2482.272 MHz, with Channels Spacing: 1.728 MHz Frequency Control Frequency Control to select smart hopper operating frequencies, only 3 frequencies needed to achieve performance. A maximum of 6 channels can be selected from the list of 48 channels. Page 6 of 7 RF Output Power FCC: 17 dBm +/-1dB (40 mW to 63 mW, nominal 50mW), into antenna load ETSI: 7.0 dBm +/-1dB (4 mW to 6.3 mW, nominal 5.0mW), into antenna load. Japan: 8.5 dBm +/-1dB (5.6 mW to 8.9 mW, nominal 7.1mW), into antenna load. Note: a) Antenna gain is 2.0dBi max Transceiver frequency accuracy <+60/-100KHz relative to channel frequency, includes temperature during normal operation compensation & aging effects. Modulation type GFSK, Gaussian Frequency Shift keying (1M40Q7D) Modulation Bandwidth Typically 1.4MHz (20dB Bandwidth) Out of band spurious emission < -41dBm in 1MHz bandwidth for FCC limit Levels Meets ETSI, RS210, FCC, ARIB standards Table 3: MDL4851 Radio Module, Transmitter Specifications Applicable Allowed channels Operating Range ETSI 1-46 2402.784 - 2480.544 MHz 10 dBm FCC, RSS-210 0-47 2401.056 - 2482.272 MHz 20 dBm JAPAN, ARIB 0-47 2401.056 - 2482.272 MHz 12.1dBm AUS/NZ 1-46 2402.784 - 2480.544 MHz 10 dBm Regulatory Rule Frequency Max Power from Antenna (EIRP) Table 4 Radio Specification, MDL4851 Channel Frequency Rules 8.1 Fault Conditions Over/ Under Voltage The input voltage from the DC power source to the module must remain between the values specified in Table 1. Operating the radio module from a voltage lower source lower than 4.75VDc or higher that 5.25 vdc can cause the regulator section to shut down ceasing operation of the radio module. Page 7 of 7 8.2 Excessive Signal Level on Serial Input The data input signal levels must be observed as specified in Table 2. Driving the input data line over 5 vdc can cause damage to the radio module input buffers, causing interruption of data transfer. 8.3 Excessive Data Rate on Serial Input The host serial communication data rate is fixed at 115.2 kbaud. Clocking data at different baud rates will result in incorrect data transfer. The maximum host/user over the RF link data rate is 12 kbps. Attempting to send data at a faster rate will result in data buffer overrun and data loss.
