Version 1.0 - 2006-08 23 5 Mounting Information 5.1 Board Outlines 5.1.1 cB-0905 Figure 4: cB-0905 dimensions [mm]. The J2 pads are longer to fit both the single and double row connec-tors (see section 5.2).
Version 1.0 - 2006-08 24 5.1.2 Mounting Holes There are 2 x 2.3mm mounting holes on cB-0905. 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 5). 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 6 and Figure 7. Figure 5: The 2.3mm mounting holes [mm]
Version 1.0 - 2006-08 25 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.

Version 1.0 - 2006-08 29 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 6 and Figure 7) and are manufactured by PEM Fastening Systems (www.pemnet.com), part no KFS2-M2 (see Figure 8). Be careful with the distance between the nuts regarding alignment, see section 5.1.2. Figure 8: KFS2-M2 press-fit nut. Spacer-pipes are recommended to use between the PCBs when press-fit nuts are used. 5.4 Antenna Issues The unit cannot be mounted arbitrary, because of the radio communication. The unit with an internal surface mounted antenna (CB-OEMSPA333i) cannot be mounted in a metal enclosure. No metal casing or plastics using metal flakes should be used, avoid also metallic based paint or lacquer. Keep a minimum clearance of 10mm between the antenna and the casing. Keep 10 mm free space from metal around the antenna. 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.

Version 1.0 - 2006-08 38 Appendix A - Application Notes Usually only a subset of the available functionality is of interest to the designer. In addition, depending on the host system, the electrical interface can be designed in many ways. The designer can use the step-by-step guide in this chapter as an aid in the design process.

Version 1.0 - 2006-08 39 A.2 Design Examples This section contains design examples for all interfaces on J1, J2 and J3. The connector type that suits a specific application depends on the needed signal and the preferred interface type. 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 9) for protection, see Table 6 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 10). The host system input pins could require a buffer (see Figure 10) depending on the logic level requirements (see Table 6). The 74HCT08 gate is also available in a single gate package (74AHCT1G08). Figure 9: Logic levels interface to a 3/3.3V system. A protective 100ΩΩΩΩ resistor is used. Figure 10: Interface example with logic levels to a 5V system. A 5V system with open collector outputs is designed in Figure 11. Figure 11: Open collector outputs.
Version 1.0 - 2006-08 40 A.2.2 Serial Interface The serial interface can operate in RS232 or Logic level mode, see section A.2.3.2. The Logic level mode could be used if the module is connected to an external CPU or if the physical interface should be another then the internal RS232 likes RS422 (see section A.2.2.3). The signal excluding the RxD and TxD signals available on the serial interface are: 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 AT Commands document. 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 12 for a 3.0/3.3V host system and Figure 13 for a 5V host system. See section A.2.3.2 for information on how to select Logic level mode. Note! It is very important to set the module in logic level mode properly when interfacing with logic levels; collision with the internal RS232 transceiver could damage the module. Figure 12: A complete UART interface with a 3.0/3.3V host system. Figure 13: A complete UART interface with a 5V host system.
Version 1.0 - 2006-08 41 A.2.2.2 External RS232 driver The modules are fully compatible with the EIA-232 standard and can be connected to all RS232 transceivers. Speed and current consumption depends on the host system RS232 transceiver. See Figure 14 for a complete example. Not used functionality can be left unconnected; see Section A.2.2. Figure 14: A complete RS232 interface.
Version 1.0 - 2006-08 42 A.2.2.3 External RS422 transceiver An external RS422 driver could be used in a point-to-point (full duplex) application (see Figure 15). The Logic level mode needs to be enabled when using an external transceiver. See section A.2.3.2 for information on how to select Logic level mode. Note! It is very important to set the module in logic level mode properly when interfacing with logic levels; collision with the internal RS232 transceiver could damage the module. Figure 15: A complete RS422 interface.
Version 1.0 - 2006-08 43 A.2.2.4 External RS422/RS485 transceiver A complete RS422/RS485 transceiver design connected to a bus system need to control the enable signals of the transceiver. The SerialSelect signals are used for this purpose (see Table 14). The Logic level mode needs to be enabled when using an external transceiver. See section A.2.3.2 for information on how to select Logic level mode. The module need also to be software configured to the corrected interface, see the Serial Port Adapter AT Commands document how to configure the module to the correct serial interface. Table 14: SerialSelect signals combinations Serial Select-0 Serial Select-1 Internal RS232 Transceiver status RS485/RS422 Transmitter status (Active high) RS485/RS422 Receiver status (Active low) 0 0 Disabled Disabled Enabled 0 1 Disabled Enabled Enabled 1 0 Disabled Enabled Disabled 1 1 Enabled Disabled Disabled Note! It is very important to set the module in logic level mode properly when interfacing with logic levels; collision with the internal RS232 transceiver could damage the module. Figure 16: A complete RS422/RS488 transceiver design.
Version 1.0 - 2006-08 44 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 17). 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 8). See Figure 18 for an example on how to suppress the flashes. Figure 17: A blue LED can be connected directly to the module if the LED current is below 2mA. A high state (active low) makes the voltage drop over the LED to 2.2V. This is not enough to light the LED. Figure 18: 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 1.0 - 2006-08 45 A.2.3.2 RED/Mode Signal The RED/Mode signal is a multiplexed signal: - RED - Logic red LED signal (see Chapter 3, Table 8). Becomes valid 500ms after start up. - Mode - The module reads the status of the signal during startup to decide if the serial interface shall be RS232 (HIGH) or logic UART (LOW) levels. The input signal must be stable for the first 500ms after startup (after reset/power on reset). The signal is internally pulled-up (120kΩ) for RS232 as default. If a LED is used in UART mode a high impendence buffer is required 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 19) and a 74HCT08 logic gate in a 5V system (see Figure 20). Both gates are available in a single gate package (74AHC1G08/74AHCT1G08). Figure 19: UART mode selected together with 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 20: UART mode selected together with a red LED in a 5V host system. The status of the signal can also be used as input to a host controller. The buffer can be removed in a 3.3V system if RS232 mode is used (see Figure 21). 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 22). The 74HCT08 gate is available in a single gate package (74AHCT1G08). Figure 21: RS232 mode selected (default) together with a red LED in a 3.3V host system. The status of the signal can also be used as input to a host con-troller. Figure 22: RS232 mode selected (default) together with a red LED in a 5V host system. The status of the signal can also be used as input to a host controller. Only a pull-down on the RED/Mode pin is needed if UART mode is used but no red LED is required (see Figure 23). The RED/Mode pin can be left unconnected if RS232 (default) is used and no red LED required.
Version 1.0 - 2006-08 46 Figure 23: The mode pin is pulled-down (1kΩΩΩΩ) in UART mode.
Version 1.0 - 2006-08 47 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 8). 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 (120kΩ) 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 24) and a 74HCT08 logic gate in a 5V system (see Figure 25). 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 120kΩ). A design that prevents this can be found in Figure 29. Figure 24: 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. Figure 25: 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. The buffer can be removed in a 3.3V system if no restore switch is required (see Figure 26). 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 27). The 74HCT08 gate is also available in a single gate package (74AHCT1G08).
Version 1.0 - 2006-08 48 Figure 26: 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 27: 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. 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 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 120kΩ). A design that prevents this can be found in Figure 29. The GREEN/Switch-1 pin can be left unconnected if none of its functionality is required. Figure 28: A low resistance restore switch used. Figure 29: If the resistance in the switch is not guaranteed to be low enough, a safer design can be used.
Version 1.0 - 2006-08 49 A.2.3.4 Switch-0 Signal Switch-0 is not multiplexed with other functionality and a switch is easily implemented (see Figure 30). 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 120kΩ). A design that prevents this can be found in Figure 31. The Switch-0 pin can be left unconnected if its functionality is not used. Figure 30: A low resistance function switch used. Figure 31: If the resistance in the switch is not guaranteed to be low enough, a safer design can be used. A.2.4 Reset TheRESETpin can be connected to an external reset source, see Figure 32 for a switch example. If the reset signal is connected to an output signal it must be an open drain collector, see Figure 33. Notice the capacitive load on the RESETpin in Table 6, section 2.3. The RESETpin can be left unconnected if not used. Figure 32: A reset switch. Figure 33: Design of an open collector reset from an active high output.
Version 1.0 - 2006-08 50 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. Figure 34: A complete 5V host interface with operational amplifier
