Layout Design Suggestions
• General Layout Rules- All Printed Circuit Boards must comply with UL94V0 standard for
flammability. Always use RoHS compliant Parts and materials.
• Suggestions for Layout:
1.
Do not place Power circuit, X’tal, Inductor, etc. near RF area.
2.
The bigger Antenna clearance area, the better. The Antenna itself needs to stay away from
any circuit or component at least 2mm. Antenna clearance area means Top and Bottom
both required to be cleared.
3. Do not use metal materials on design where near Antenna area. For example, battery snaps,
USB connector, iron case, etc.
These guidelines are for design reference; real performance still depends on actual design.

Operating the RB540MB for Standard RX
The RB540-a/c has optional firmware for Standard HFP+A2DP Stereo RX. This firmware allows
the user to establish a Bluetooth stereo connection between a RB540-a/c module and a Bluetooth
capable cell phone. After a Bluetooth connection is established with the phone, the user can pick up
a phone call or play music from his phone.
The following will explain how to use the RB540MB switches to control the RB540-a/c module
with the standard HFP+A2DP RX firmware.
Connect a microphone, speaker and USB cable into RB540MB board.
1.
Power ON: After turning on Power Switch PSW1, the LED 1–4 will flash once and light from
LED1 – LED2 – LED3 – LED4, then LED4 – LED3 – LED2 – LED1, then all LED1–4 will
flash for 2 times. If no paired before, the module will automatically start pairing and enter
discoverable mode. If paired before, the module will immediately look for the previously
paired device and try to reconnect. After 5 minutes, no Bluetooth Connection is established, the
module will go to standby mode and the LED1 will flash every 2 seconds.
2.
Initiate Pairing: When the module is in standby mode, press button SW4 for 5 seconds to
initiate entering discoverable and pairing. If pressing longer than 10 seconds, the BT module
will clear paired device and look up for new BT device again. During the pairing, LED1–4 will
flash on and off at 0.5 second rate.
Turn on BT mode in your phone, and go to search mode. You can use phone to connect
RB540MB. The device name to search for RB540-a is "Std RX v21.004", and for RB540-c is
“Std RX v22.004”. After paired, LED1–4 will flash 5 times and then LED1 will flash at
1second rate while LED 2-4 off. Once connected, as shown on your phone, you can start to
play music to RB540MB.
3.
Play Music: Plug your speakers into the SP-R and SP-L two pin headers or into the SPK1
Stereo Jack. There is no polarity. Go to your phone application and start playing music. There
are 10 levels of volume up and down. SW2 is volume + and SW1 is volume -. It will have a
warning sound when reaching maximum volume. Button SW2 and SW1 can be pressed step
by step or continuously. You can also use phone to change speaker volume.
4.
Hands Free Phone Operation (HFP): The RB540MB can also be used for hands free phone.
Use button SW3 for call pick up/ end call, once you hear ring tone from speaker, plug
microphone and speaker for your hand free device.
Incoming call: when incoming call, the 4 LEDs will flash 8 times. It will repeat until the call is
pick up, go to voicemail or disconnect. After pick up call, LED 1-4 will flash from LED1 –
LED2 – LED3 – LED4, then LED4 – LED3 – LED2 – LED1 periodically.
End call: After picking up the call, if press SW3 button will disconnect the call. Music resumes
after call ends.
Power cycle RB540MB or switch off-and-on the cell phone Bluetooth, the module will automatically
connect to the cell phone.

Operating the RB540MB for TrueWireless Stereo Sound
The RB540 has optional firmware for True Wireless Stereo sound. This firmware allows the user to
establish a Bluetooth stereo connection between two RB540 Modules and a Bluetooth capable cell
phone. After a Bluetooth connection is established with the phone, then establish a connection
between RB540MB Master and RB540MB Slave. The user can now play music from his phone.
When the RB540MB Master receives the Music from the phone, it will split the sound into two
channels for stereo operation. The RB540MB Master will play one channel and the RB540MB
Slave will play the other channel.
The following will explain how to use the RB540MB switches to control the RB540 module with
the standard TWS firmware.
Connect a speaker and USB cable into both RB540MB boards.
1. Power ON: First we will create a Master RB540. Power on one of the RB540 modules by
plugging in the USB cable and turn on the PSW1.
2. Initiate Pairing with cell phone: Short press SW4 button to enter the Bluetooth discovery mode,
the on-board LED1 should start flashing and a periodic "du" sound can be heard from through
the speaker connected to the Master RB540MB.
Use the cell phone to discover and connect with the Master. The device name to search for is
"TWS v11.003". The LED1 will stay lit after Bluetooth connection is established.
Note: the first RB540 paired to a cell phone is a Master RB540.
3. Initiate Pairing with two RB540: Short press SW2 button on both (Master and Slave) units to
start the pairing process between them. A periodic "du du" sound can be heard through both
speakers and LED2 will be flashing on both units. The first time they pair might take a minute.
This is due to the two Bluetooth modules synchronizing their clocks. Once the pairing process
is complete, the LED2 will stay lit on both RB540MB.
4. Play Music: Use the cell phone to play music. After a short delay, you to hear the music in stereo
through the two speakers. Volume control is available only on cell phone in this firmware.
Note: RB540 Master is SPK_L, and RB540 Slave is SPK_R.
The next time you use the phone to connect, the complete process will only take a couple of seconds.
Use the cell phone to reconnect “TWS v11.003”, the modules will automatically connect to each
other and the music can be played immediately.
Note: Long press 3 seconds on either SW2 or SW4 will trigger a “reset” on RB540. Pairing
information will be cleared in RB540. Due to different cell phone behavior, some cell phone
may be able to reconnect to RB540 after a “reset” because the cell phone still keep the pairing
record with RB540.
26
Operating the RB540MB for Tx/RX (two-way SCO Link)
The RB540 has optional firmware for TX/RX (two-way SCO Link). This firmware allows the user
to establish a Bluetooth proprietary connection between two RB540 Modules. After a Bluetooth
connection is established between two RB540MB, the user can use the modules as two-way TX/RX
communication.
The following will explain how to use the RB540MB switches to control the RB540 module with
the standard TX/RX (two-way SCO Link) firmware.
Connect a microphone, speaker and USB cable into both RB540MB boards.
1. Power ON RX: Plug your speakers into the SP-R and SP-L two pin headers or into the SPK1
Stereo Jack. There is no polarity. Turn on the PSW1 on the RB540 RX module. All 4 LEDs
will flash once, then LED 1–4 will flash from LED1 – LED2– LED3 – LED4, then LED4–
LED3 – LED2 – LED1. All 4 LEDs will flash at 1second rate. At this moment, the BT module
enters discoverable mode and starts pairing.
2. Power ON TX: Plug your speakers into the SPK1 Stereo Jack. Turn on the PSW1 on the
RB540 TX module. LED1-2 will quick flash alternately, LED3 stays lit.
3. Initiate Pairing: Press TX SW4 to start discovery and pairing. LED2 will quick flash, LED3
remains lit. Wait until RX LED1 is on, press TX SW3 to connect to RX. After connected, RX
LED1 will flash at 1second rate. TX LED2 will flash 2 times a second, LED3 stays lit.
Two-way communication is available on TX and RX.
Both TX and RX can speak and listen to each other synchronously.
Power cycle RB540MB TX or RX, need to repeat #3 Initiate Pairing process to establish the connection.
There is no auto-reconnection supported in this firmware revision.
Note: If RX has paired to another host device (ex. smart phone), please make sure you clear the
previous pairing record before reconnecting to TX. Long press RX SW4 for 12 seconds to
clear the previous pairing record.
27
Operating the RB540MB for Tx/RX (one-way A2DP)
The RB540 has optional firmware for TX/RX (one-way A2DP). This firmware allows the user to
establish a Bluetooth proprietary connection between two RB540 Modules. After a Bluetooth
connection is established between two RB540MB, the user can use the modules as one-way TX/RX
communication.
The following will explain how to use the RB540MB switches to control the RB540 module with
the standard TX/RX (one-way A2DP) firmware.
Connect an USB cable into both RB540MB boards.
1. Power ON RX: Plug your speakers into the SPK1 Stereo Jack. Turn on the PSW1 on
RB540MB RX. A “du-du-du” sound will play for power on indication. LED1-2 will flash
alternately, LED4 stays lit. RB540 RX will automatically enter discoverable mode at all times.
2. Power ON TX and initiate Pairing: Plug the microphone into MIC1A. Turn on the PSW1 on
RB540MB TX. LED1-2 will flash alternately, LED4 stays lit. In first 10 seconds, RB540 TX
will try to connect to last paired RX, the reconnection will be established in couple seconds. If
no reconnection established in 10 seconds, RB540 TX will automatically enter pairing mode to
search a new RX. After paired, a “du-du” sound will play in RX, and LED1, LED4 will lit on
both TX and RX RB540MB boards.
Note: Suggested always to power on RX first, in order to shorten TX pairing time.
3. Now you can use TX as talking or music source, and hear the sound from RX.
4. Volume change on TX: There are 21 levels of volume up and down on TX. SW2 is volume +
and SW1 is volume -. Button SW2 and SW1 can be pressed step by step or continuously.
Note: Volume change function not supported in RX.
5. Clear Pairing Record: Long press TX SW4 for 10 seconds to clear the previous pairing record.
Note:
1. Power cycle RB540MB RX, the module will automatically enter discoverable mode for any
available TX in the range.
2. Power cycle RB540MB TX, the module will first try to connect to last paired RX for 10
seconds, if no connection established in 10 seconds, TX will automatically enter pairing
mode for searching a new RX.
3. No pairing button needed in this firmware revision, all pairing connection will be
automatically handled in couple seconds.
