2.3 Characteristics
The cB-0901 board is designed to be fully interchangeable. If the host product has space for
the board it is possible to choose freely between a cB-OEMSPA311i/x or cB-OEMSPA331i/x
device without any change of the host product. If you design your power supply for cBOEMSPA331i/x the modules will be fully interchangeable.
The cB-0901 module has a linear power supply, which means that the current is constant if
the voltage supply is changed. See Table 10.
For more information about low power modes see Serial Port Adapter AT commands Specification.

5.1 Board Outlines
5.1.1 cB-0901
Figure 5: cB-0901 dimensions [mm]. The J2 pads are longer to fit both the single and double row ASP connectors (see section 5.2). Some of the not used pads of J3 are not visible
Version 1.1 - 2005-11
29
5.1.2 Mounting Holes
There are 2 x 2.3mm mounting holes on cB-0901. The reasons for the 2.3mm holes are that
the threaded M2 holes on the single and double row connectors (see section 5.2.1) are not
aligned. The outer tangents of the 2.3mm holes align the module if the single row connectors
are used and the inner if double row connectors are used (see Figure 6).
Choose the outer tangent (CC distance 27.24mm) if the module is aligned and mounted with
some other technique based on M2 screws (e.g. press-fit nuts), see Figure 7 and Figure 8.
Figure 6: The 2.3mm mounting holes [mm]
Version 1.1 - 2005-11

5.2 Using the J2/J3 Board-to-Board Connectors
The board-to-board connector should be a 1mm pitch one-piece part connector. The recommended manufacture is Samtec with many connector options available; see section
5.2.1.1 and 5.2.1.2.
Chapter 2 contains more information about the connector and the electrical interface.
5.2.1 Suitable One-Piece Part Connectors
5.2.1.1 Single row connectors
These connectors are a single row connector and can be used if only J2 is needed.
This connector has a profile height of 1.65 mm and this has to be considered if components
are to be mounted on the motherboard under the OEM Serial Port Adapter board.
There are alignment pins on the bottom side of the connector.
The connector is available with M2 threaded inserts that fit the mounting holes on the board
(see section 5.1.2). You may screw the OEM Serial Port Adapter board directly into these inserts. If you want to have a tighter and more secure mounting, you may use longer screws
and secure it using a nut on the backside of the motherboard.
Another way to mount the module is to use press-fit nuts on the motherboard and skip the
M2 threads on the connector, see section 5.3 for more information about press-fit nuts.

5.3 Using Press-Fit Nuts for Mounting the Module
A press-fit nut is pressed into the PCB from the bottom side with a special press tool. M2
sized press-fit nuts are suitable for the modules (see Figure 7 and Figure 8) and are manufactured by PEM Fastening Systems (www.pemnet.com), part no KFS2-M2 (see Figure 9).
Be careful with the distance between the nuts regarding alignment, see section 5.1.2.
Figure 9: KFS2-M2 press-fit nut.
Spacer-pipes are recommended to use between the PCBs when press-fit nuts are used.
5.4 Using the J6 PCB solder pads on the edge
The CB-OEMSPA311i/x and CB-OEMSPA331i/x complies with the RoHS directive with lead
free solder paste. The solder paste used is SAC 305 (NC254).
The host PCB footprint should not contain any traces or vias under the module except the
pads interfacing the J6 pads to avoid contact with traces/vias on the module. The host pads
which is soldered to the J6 pads should reach 0.5-1.0mm under the PCB and some mm outside the module. No other pads then the J6 should be soldered to the host PCB. See section
2.1.1 for more info about the J6 pads.
5.5 Antenna Issues
The unit cannot be mounted arbitrary, because of the radio communication. The unit with an
internal surface mounted antenna (CB-OEMSPA311i and CB-OEMSPA331i) cannot be
mounted in a metal enclosure, see Figure 10.
No metal casing or plastics using metal flakes should be used, avoid also metallic based
paint or laquer. Keep a minimum clearance of 10mm between the antenna and the casing.
Keep 10 mm free space from metal around the antenna including under and above.
If a metal enclosure is required, one of the external antenna options has to be used. See
section 4.2 for more information on the antenna options available.

Question
Yes
No
Are you going to integrate the OEM
Serial Port Adapter in a metal enclosure?
The internal antenna models
cannot be used. Use the OEMSPA311x or OEMSPA331x.
You are free to choose
between the products. The
internal antenna models
are lower cost and are
easier to design-in. However, an external antenna
could give better range.
Do you wish to use logic level when
communicating with the OEM Serial
Port Adapter?

A.2 Design Examples
This section contains design examples for all interfaces on J2, J3, J6, J7 and J8. The connector type that suits a specific application depends on the needed signal and the preferred
interface type (wires, flexfilm, board-to-board or SMD).
A.2.1 Logic Levels
A 3.0/3.3V host system can be connected directly to the logic level pins (BLUE, UART-TxD /
UART-RxD etc). A serial 100Ω resistor shall be used (see Figure 11) for protection, see
Table 12 for logic levels characteristics.
A 5V host system can easily be adjusted to the logic levels. A host system output signal can
use a resistive divider (18k/22k) to adjust the levels. This is applicable for speeds up to
115.2kBits/s. The divider can be adjusted to 1.8k/2.2k and a logic buffer (74HCT08) for
higher speeds (see Figure 12). The host system input pins could require a buffer (see Figure
12) depending on the logic level requirements (see Table 12).
The 74HCT08 gate is also available in a single gate package (74AHCT1G08).

A.2.2 Serial Interface
The serial interface of the module is Logic Level logic levels and the module can be connected to an external CPU (see section A.2.2.1).
An external driver is needed if the module should be on another physical interface like
RS232 or RS422 (see section A.2.2.2 and A.2.2.3).
CTS (Clear To Send) and RTS (Request To Send) are used for hardware flow control.
DSR (Data Set Ready) can be used to make a connect attempt. See the Serial Port Adapter
AT commands specification.
DTR (Data Terminal Ready) can be used to detect if the module is up and running and ready
to receive data.
Note! The module must be configured to flow control none if hardware flow control is
not used, see the Serial Port Adapter User Manual.
A.2.2.1 Logic level Mode
The serial UART interface can be used in a host controller application with a UART interface.
The design of the interface depends on the power supply voltage of the host system; see
Figure 14 for a 3.0/3.3V host system and Figure 15 for a 5V host system.

3.0/3.3V host system.

system.

A.2.2.2 External RS232 driver
An external RS232 driver is needed if the module should have a RS232 serial interface. See
Figure 16 for a complete design example that could be connected to the serial port of standard PC. Not used functionality can be left unconnected; see section A.2.2.
Figure 16: A complete RS232 interface.
A.2.2.3 External RS422 driver
An external RS422 driver could be used in a point-to-point (full duplex) application (see
Figure 17).

A.2.3 LED and Switch Design
A.2.3.1 BLUE Signal
The BLUE logic LED signal is not multiplexed with any other functionality, which makes the
design more straightforward (for more information see Figure 18). There are two important
notes:
A blue LED requires about 3.5V forward voltage drop (cannot be used in a 3.3V system).
The BLUE signal can be used to detect if the module is connected or not. The BLUE
signal flashes when the module is sending and receiving data (see Chapter 3, Table
14). See Figure 19 for an example on how to suppress the flashes.
Figure 18: A blue LED can be connected directly to the module if the LED current is below 4mA. A high
state (active low) makes the voltage drop over the LED to 2.2V. This is not enough to light the LED.
Figure 19: A Low pass filter and a 74HC08 suppress the flashes when the module is sending and receiving
data. The Blue LED can be removed if not required. The values are not suited in all applications and need to
be verified in a specific application.
Version 1.1 - 2005-11
48
A.2.3.2 RED
The RED logic LED signal is not multiplexed with any other functionality, which makes the
design more straightforward. See Figure 20 for a 3.3V design.
In a 5V system the high state output (2.8V) from the module is not enough to turn off the
LED so a 74HCT08 buffer can be used to raise the high level to 5V (see Figure 21).
The 74HCT08 gate is available in a single gate package (74AHCT1G08).
Figure 20: A red LED in a 3.3V host system. The
status of the signal can also be used as input to a
host controller.
Figure 21: A red LED in a 5V host system. The
status of the signal can also be used as input
to a host controller.
The RED signal pin is also used to select Logic Level mode (instead of RS232) for connectBlue product with internal RS232 driver. The mode functionality is not applicable on cB0901 because there is no internal RS232 driver available. To be compatible with these products check the datasheet about this signal.

A.2.3.3 GREEN/Switch-1 signal
The GREEN/Switch-1 signal is a multiplexed signal:
GREEN - Logic green LED signal (see Chapter 3, Table 14). Becomes valid 500ms after start up.
Switch-1 - The module reads the status of the signal at startup to decide if the serial interface settings shall be restored (LOW) (see the Serial Port Adapter User Manual for
more details). The input signal must be stable for the first 500ms after startup (after reset/power on reset).
The signal is internally pulled-up (50kΩ) to 3.0V for NOT restoring settings to default.
If a LED is used and a switch is required to be able to restore the settings, a high impendence buffer need to prevent the signal from being pulled-up via the LED. A 74HC08 logic
gate can be used in a 3/3.3V system (see Figure 22) and a 74HCT08 logic gate in a 5V system (see Figure 23).
Both gates are available in a single gate package (74AHC1G08/74AHCT1G08).
Sometimes, over time, switch contacts can get an oxide layer. This may cause the closed
switch resistance to become too high to sink the signal to logic LOW (the signal is internally
pulled-up to 50kΩ). A design that prevents this can be found in Figure 27.
Figure 22: Switch-1 used together with a
green LED in a 3.3V host system. The status
of the signal can also be used as input to a
host controller. Notice the 10kΩ serial resistor.
Figure 23: Switch-1 used together with a green
LED in a 5V host system. The status of the
signal can also be used as input to a host
controller. Notice the 10kΩ serial resistor.
The buffer can be removed in a 3.3V system if no restore switch is required (see Figure 24).
In a 5V system the high state output (2.8V) from the module is not enough to turn off the
LED, so a 74HCT08 buffer can be used to raise the high level to 5V (see Figure 25).
The 74HCT08 gate is also available in a single gate package (74AHCT1G08).
Figure 24: No restore switch used but a green
LED in a 3.3V host system. The status of the
signal can also be used as input to a host controller.
Figure 25: No restore switch used but a green
LED in a 5V host system. The status of the
signal can also be used as input to a host
controller.
Version 1.1 - 2005-11

A serial resistor to the restore switch must be used to prevent a short circuit when the
GREEN/Switch-1 pin is in output HIGH state and the switch is pressed (see Figure 26).
Sometimes, over time, switch contacts can get an oxide layer. This may cause the closed
switch resistance to become too high to sink the signal to logic LOW (the signal is internally
pulled-up to 50kΩ). A design that prevents this can be found in Figure 27.
The GREEN/Switch-1 pin can be left unconnected if none of its functionality is required.
Figure 26: A low resistance restore
switch used. Notice the 10kΩ serial
resistor.
Figure 27: If the resistance in the switch is not
guaranteed to be low enough, a safer design can
be used. Notice the 10kΩ serial resistor.
A.2.3.4 Switch-0 Signal
Switch-0 is not multiplexed with other functionality and a switch is easily implemented (see
Figure 28).
Sometimes, over time, switch contacts can get an oxide layer. This may cause the closed
switch resistance to become too high to sink the signal to logic LOW (the signal is internally
pulled-up to 50kΩ). A design that prevents this can be found in Figure 29.
The Switch-0 pin can be left unconnected if its functionality is not used.
Figure 28: A low resistance function switch
used.
Figure 29: If the resistance in the switch is not
guaranteed to be low enough, a safer design
can be used.

51
A.2.4 Reset
The RESET pin can be connected to an external reset source, see Figure 30 for a switch example.
If the reset signal is connected to an output signal it must be an open drain collector, see
Figure 31. Notice the capacitive load on the RESET pin in Table 12, section 2.3.
The RESET pin can be left unconnected if not used.

A.2.5 A Complete 5V Host System Interface
This is a complete 5V host system interface example with an RGB LED and two switches
(except the serial interface, see section A.2.2 for information). The design is based on the
LM339 Quad OP-amp instead of logic gates.
