1 Introduction
This document describes the Telegesis ETRX358x-LRS and ETRX358xHR-LRS ZigBee long
range modules which have been designed to be easily integrated into another device and to
provide a fast, simple and low cost wireless mesh networking interface.
The Telegesis ETRX3 series modules are based on the Silicon Labs ZigBee compliant platform
consisting of the single chip family of EM358x SoCs combined with the ZigBee PRO compliant
EmberZNet meshing stack. Integration into a wide range of applications is made easy using a
simple AT style command interface and advanced hardware design.
The configurable functionality of the Telegesis AT Commandset often allows the ETRX3 series
ZigBee modules to be used without an additional host microcontroller saving even more integration
time and costs. In addition to the Telegesis AT Commandset, the ETRX358x-LRS and
ETRX358xHR-LRS modules can be used with custom-built firmware whilst representing an ideal
platform for custom firmware development in conjunction with the Silicon Labs ZigBee
development kits.
No RF experience or expertise is required to add this powerful wireless networking capability to
your products. The ETRX358x-LRS and ETRX358xHR-LRS offer fast integration opportunities
and the shortest possible time to market for your product.

ETRX358x-LRS Product Manual
ETRX358x-LRS and ETRX358x-LRS
The LNA and RF power amplifier of the LRS devices improve the output power by 12dB and the
sensitivity by 5dB which will increase the range by approximately 700% relative to the standard
devices (where local regulations permit the use of the maximum output power).
The ETRX358x and ETRX358xHR are used for ZigBee (www.zigbee.org) applications. In case it is
desired to develop custom firmware instead of using the pre-loaded AT-Command interface, the
Silicon Labs toolchain, consisting of Ember Desktop together with a comprehensive integrated
development environment (IDE), is required.

2.6
The ZigBee Protocol
The ZigBee Protocol is a set of standards for wireless connectivity for use between any devices
over short to medium distances. The specification was originally ratified in December 2004, paving
the way for companies to start making low-power networks a reality.
ZigBee uses an IEEE 802.15.4 radio specification running on the 2.4GHz band, plus three
additional layers for networking, security and applications. What makes the specification unique is
its use of a mesh network architecture which, in bucket chain style, passes data from one node to
the next until it lands at its destination. The network is self-healing and adapts its routing as link
quality changes or nodes move. Furthermore, nodes can be defined as End Devices which do not
act as routers, but can therefore be put into a low-power sleep state.
The enhanced version of the ZigBee standard (or ZigBee 2006) was released in December 2006,
adding new features and improvements to the only global wireless communication standard
enabling the development of easily deployable low-cost, low-power, monitoring and control
products for homes, commercial buildings and industrial plant monitoring. In 2007 the ZigBee
Alliance introduced the PRO feature-set which offers advantages over earlier feature-sets,
including
•
•
•
•
•
Truly self-healing mesh networking
Messages can now travel up to 30 hops
Source-Routing for improved point to multipoint message transmission
Improved security including Trust-Centre link keys
New message types and options
The Telegesis AT Command-set, which by default ships on all ETRX3 series products is based on
the ZigBee PRO feature-set. For more information on the Telegesis AT Command-set please refer
to the separate documentation at www.telegesis.com.

Table 3. Pin Information
Notes:
{1} Pins PB0 and PC5 of the EM357 are used internally to control the front-end module. PB0 is not
available to the user.
{2} The serial UART connections TXD, RXD, CTS and RTS are PB1, PB2, PB3 and PB4 respectively
{3} When using the Telegesis AT Command-set, RTS/CTS handshaking is selectable in firmware. See
the AT Command Manual.
{4} If PA5 is driven low at power-up or reset the module will boot up in the bootloader
{5} PA6, PA7, PB6, PB7 and PC0 can drive high current (see section 8)
{6} nRESET is level-sensitive, not edge-sensitive. The module is held in the reset state while nRESET
is low. This signal has a 30kΩ Pull-Up.
{7} ETRX3588, ETRX3586, ETRX3582 and ETRX3588HR, ETRX3586HR, ETRX3582HR variants only
Alternate functions depend on the firmware, but the Telegesis R3xx AT Command-set functions
are indicated here for convenience.
Important Note: The ETRX358x series and the ETRX358x-LRS series of modules are footprint
compatible, but on the ETRX358x-LRS series pins PB0 and PC5 of the EM358x are used
internally to control the front-end module and are not available to the user. PC5 is still available on
Pad2, but it is configured as TX_ACTIVE signal and cannot be used as a general purpose GPIO.
See also the table “Module pads and functions” in the ETRX357 Development Kit Product Manual.
Refer to the Silicon Labs EM358x manual for details of the alternate functions and pin names.

Figure 2. Hardware Diagram
The ETRX358x-LRS and ETRX358x-LRS are based on the Silicon Labs EM358x family of ZigBee
SoCs in addition to a frontend module containing a PA, LNA and RF switch in addition to the RFfrontend circuitry. The EM358x family of ZigBee SoCs are fully integrated 2.4GHz ZigBee
transceivers with a 32-bit ARM® Cortex M3TM microprocessor, flash and RAM memory, and
peripherals.
The industry standard serial wire and JTAG programming and debugging interfaces together with
the standard ARM system debug components help to streamline any custom software
development.
In addition to this a number of MAC functions are also implemented in hardware to help maintain
the strict timing requirements imposed by the ZigBee and IEEE802.15.4 standards.
The new advanced power management features allow faster wakeup from sleep and new powerdown modes allow this 3rd generation module to offer a longer battery life than any 2nd generation
modules on the market.
The EM358x has fully integrated voltage regulators for both required 1.8V and 1.25V supply
voltages. The voltages are monitored (brown-out detection) and the built in power-on-reset circuit
eliminates the need for any external monitoring circuitry. A 32.768kHz watch crystal can be
connected externally to pads 3 and 4 in case more accurate timing is required.
4.1
Hardware Interface
All GPIO pins of the EM358x chips are accessible on the module’s pads. Whether signals are
used as general purpose I/Os, or assigned to a peripheral function like ADC is set by the firmware.
When using the Telegesis AT Commandset please refer to the AT Commandset manual and the
development kit manual for this information and when developing custom firmware please refer to
the EM358x datasheet [2].

ETRX358x-LRS Product Manual
ETRX358x-LRS and ETRX358x-LRS
5 Firmware Description
By default, the modules will be pre-loaded with a standalone bootloader which supports over-theair bootloading as well as serial bootloading of new firmware.
In order to enter the standalone bootloader using a hardware trigger pull PA5 to ground and
power-cycle or reset the module. To avoid entering the standalone bootloader unintentionally
make sure not to pull this pin down during boot-up unless the resistance to ground is >10kΩ. (A
pull-up is not required).
In addition to the standalone bootloader the modules also contain the current release of the
Telegesis AT-style command interface as described in the Telegesis AT command dictionary and
the Telegesis user guide. Check www.telegesis.com for updates. Each module comes with a
unique 64-bit 802.15.4 identifier which is stored in non-volatile memory. The commands and
responses pass through the serial port of the ETRX358x as ASCII text, so a simple terminal
application will usually suffice. We provide Telegesis Terminal for interaction with the module but it
is not an essential feature.
The pre-loaded AT-style command interface firmware is based on the EmberZNet PRO meshing
stack which implements routers/coordinators as well as (sleepy) end devices. [End devices have
no routing responsibility and therefore are allowed to go to sleep, whilst still being able to send and
receive messages via a parent router. In addition to classical sleepy and non-sleepy end devices
the module firmware also supports mobile (sleepy) end devices capable of changing their parent
quickly whenever they change their position within the network.]
A router is typically a mains powered device whilst a sleepy end device (SED) can be battery
powered.
The module is also able to act as a coordinator and Trust Centre through external host control.
The AT style command line supplies all the tools required to set up and manage a ZigBee network
by allowing easy access to the low-level functionality of the stack.
The Telegesis firmware uses the meshing and self-healing EmberZNet PRO stack to overcome
many of the limitations of the tree network topology of the ZigBee 2006 stack by using the ZigBee
PRO featureset.
The Telegesis firmware allows low-level access to physical parameters such as channel and
power level. Parameters that define the functionality of the ETRX358x module and also allow
standalone functionality are saved in non-volatile memory organised in so-called S-Registers. The
SPI and I2C buses are not supported by the current firmware release, but can be used with custom
firmware.

Custom Firmware
For high volume customers the firmware can be customised on request. In addition to this the
ETRX358x-LRS series of modules is an ideal platform for developing custom firmware. In order to
develop custom firmware the Silicon Labs Ember toolchain is required.
When writing firmware for the ETRX358x-LRS it is important to ensure that pins PB0 and PC5 are
correctly configured in order that the RF front-end module can operate correctly. An application
note “Writing customised firmware for the ETRX35x-LRS” can be downloaded from the Telegesis
website.
5.3
Boost Mode vs. Normal Mode
The Ember EM358x chips support a “boost mode” power setting next to the “normal mode” power
setting. The “boost mode” setting increases the sensitivity and output power of the radio
transceiver, however with the LRS variants enabling boost mode has no positive effect on neither
the output power nor the sensitivity and therefore it is recommended to not use boost mode on this
platform. The Telegesis AT Command-set firmware automatically disables boost mode on LRS
series modules and adjusts the power maximum power settings.
Section 10.2 lists the requirements for the maximum power settings for use of the LRS family in
different countries.

Software Interface
Using the default firmware the ETRX358x-LRS is controlled using a simple AT-style command
interface and (mostly) non-volatile S-Registers. In order to get a full listing of all the available ATCommands, please refer to the AT command dictionary document which corresponds to the
firmware revision you intend to use.
In addition to the command dictionary there are user guides explaining the features of the firmware
in more detail. If you need to find out which firmware resides on your module simply type “ATI”
followed by a carriage return and you will be prompted with the module’s manufacturing
information.
The Development Kit manual describes how to upgrade the firmware either via a serial link or over
the air.

10.2 Power Settings for Regulatory Compliance
Because of the high gain of the frontend module output power of up to 22dBm can be achieved
When the antenna gain is included the output power of the EM358x transceivers needs to be
reduced for regulatory compliance. The following tables list the maximum permitted power setting
for the antenna types listed in Table 2. Note that this is the power out of the EM358x chip (set in
register S01 when using Telegesis R3xx firmware), and the power delivered to the antenna will be
higher by the gain of the RF power amplifier.

Table 18. ETRX3 Physical Dimensions
For ideal RF performance when using the on-board antenna, the antenna should be located at the
corner of the carrier PCB. There should be no components, tracks or copper planes in the “keepout” area which should be as large as possible. When using the U.FL RF connector the “keep-out”
area does not have to be kept. NB: The modules’ transmit/receive range will depend on the
antenna used and also the housing of the finished product.

Use of “No-Clean” solder paste is recommended to avoid the requirement for a cleaning process.
Cleaning the module is strongly discouraged because it will be difficult to ensure no cleaning agent
and other residuals are remaining underneath the shielding can as well as in the gap between the
module and the host board.
Please Note:
Maximum number of reflow cycles: 2
Opposite-side reflow is prohibited due to the module’s weight. (i.e. you must not place the
module on the bottom / underside of your PCB and re-flow).

14 Recommended Footprint
In order to surface mount an ETRX3 series module, we recommend that you use pads which are
1mm wide and 1.2mm high. Unless using the “HR” variants the “keep-out” zone shown in section
11 must be retained, and it must be ensured that this area is free of copper tracks and/or copper
planes/layers.
You must also ensure that there is no exposed copper on your layout which may contact with the
underside of the ETRX3 series module.
For best RF performance it is required to provide good ground connections to the ground pads of
the module. It is recommended to use multiple vias between each ground pad and a solid ground
plane to minimize inductivity in the ground path.
Figure 10. Recommended Footprint
The land pattern dimensions above serve as a guideline.
We recommend that you use the same pad dimensions for the solder paste screen as you have for
the copper pads. However these sizes and shapes may need to be varied depending on your
soldering processes and your individual production standards. We recommend a paste screen
thickness of 120µm to 150µm.
Figure 11 shows the typical pad dimensions of the module and Figure 12-Figure 14 in section 14.1
show examples of how to align the module on its host PCB.

ETRX358x-LRS Product Manual
ETRX358x-LRS and ETRX358x-LRS
Although the undersides of the ETRX3 series modules are fully coated, no exposed copper, such
as through-hole vias, planes or tracks on your board component layer, should be located below the
ETRX3 series module in order to avoid ‘shorts’. All ETRX3 series modules use a multilayer PCB
containing an inner RF shielding ground plane, therefore there is no need to have an additional
copper plane directly under the ETRX3 series module.
Figure 11. Typical pad dimensions
Finally it is recommended to use no clean flux when soldering the ETRX358x family of modules
and to not use a washing process after reflow. If the process does require washing then care must
be taken that no washing agent is trapped underneath the shielding can after the drying process
has completed.

14.1 Recommended Placement
When placing the module please either locate the antenna in the corner as shown in Figure 12 so
that the recommended antenna keepout zone is being followed, or add a no copper zone as
indicated in Figure 14.

14.2 Example carrier board
Since the RF performance of the module with the on board antenna is strongly dependent on the
proper location of the module on its carrier board figure 17 shows the reference carrier board
which was used during testing by Telegesis.
Figure 17: Reference Board
For best performance it is recommended to locate the antenna towards the corner of the carrier
board and to respect the recommended keep-out areas as described in section 11.
Finally to provide a good reference ground to the on board antenna, the carrier board should have
a ground plane spanning no less than 40 x 40mm. In many cases a smaller ground plane will
suffice, but a degradation in radio performance could be the result.
