www.rovingnetworks.comVersion 3.43 5/21/13page 1 RN41-DS RN-41/RN-41N Class 1 Bluetooth Module Features: • Fully qualified Bluetooth ® version 2.1 module, supports version 2.1 + Enhanced Data Rate (EDR) • Backwards-compatible with Bluetooth version 2.0, 1.2, and 1.1 • Postage stamp sized form factor, 13.4 mm x 25.8 mm x 2 mm • Low power (30 mA connected, < 10 mA sniff mode) • UART (SPP or HCI) and USB (HCI only) data connection interfaces • Sustained SPP data rates: 240 Kbps (slave), 300 Kbps (master) • HCI data rates: 1.5 Mbps sustained, 3.0 Mbps burst in HCI mode • Embedded Bluetooth stack profiles included (requires no host stack): GAP, SDP, RFCOMM, and L2CAP protocols, with SPP and DUN profile support • Bluetooth SIG qualified, end product listing • Castellated SMT pads for easy and reliable PCB mounting • Class 1 high power amplifier with on board ceramic RF chip antenna (RN-41) or without antenna (RN-41N) • Certifications: FCC, IC, ICS, CE Applications: • Cable replacement • Barcode scanners • Measurement and monitoring systems • Industrial sensors and controls • Medical devices • Asset tracking RN-41 Block Diagram: RF Switch PA BALUN CSR BlueCore-04 External Crystal Flash Memory VCC GND GPIO GPIO GPIO USB UART PCM RN-41 www.rovingnetworks.comVersion 3.43 5/21/13page 2 RN41-DS 1.0DEVICE OVERVIEW The RN-41/RN-41N module is a small form factor, low power, class 1 Bluetooth radio that is ideal for design- ers who want to add wireless capability to their prod- ucts without spending significant time and money developing Bluetooth-specific hardware and software. The RN-41/RN-41N supports multiple interface proto- cols, is simple to design in, and is fully certified, making it a complete embedded Bluetooth solution. With its high-performance, on-chip antenna (RN-41) or exter- nal antenna (RN-41N), and support for Bluetooth EDR, the RN-41/RN-41N delivers up to a 3-Mbps data rate for distances up to 100 meters. The module provides FHSS/GFSK modulation and 79 channels at 1-MHz intervals. 128-bit encryption ensures secure communication. The module can be configured locally via the UART or over-the-air. To support instant cable replacement, auto-discovery/pairing does not require software con- figuration. Additionally, the module supports auto-con- nect master, I/O pin (DTR), and character-based trigger modes Ta b l e 1 -1, Ta b l e 1 - 2, Table 1-3, Ta b l e 1 - 4, and Ta b l e 1 - 5 provide the module’s environmental condi- tions, electrical characteristics, weight and dimensions, radio characteristics, and digital I/O characteristics.
