SWRU261A December 2012 CC1101EMK 868/915 MHz Quick Start Guide Opening the box and using the modules with SmartRF04EB 1. Kit Contents 2 x CC1101EM-868-915 2 x W5017 Pulse Antennas The hardware in this kit is FCC/IC certified and complies with ETSI/R&TTE over temperature from 0 to +35°C. The W5017 whip antenna from Pulse has a gain of 2 dBi. 2. How to use the modules The CC1101EM boards can be plugged into several development boards from Texas Instruments. Most notably, you can use SmartRF04EB, which is included in the CC1101DK, or the SmartRF TrxEB (included in CC1120DK). These boards let you run a packet error rate (PER) test, control the device from SmartRF™ Studio and it can be used as a general purpose development platform. The board can also be plugged into the MSP430 Experimenter’s Boards, both the MSP-EXP430F4618 and MSP- EXP430F5438. For prototyping with other microcontrollers, plug the EM into the “SoC Battery Board” (www.ti.com/tool/soc-bb). This guide will show how to use the modules together with SmartRF04EB. 3. Plug EM into SmartRF04EB Insert a CC1101EM (EM) with an antenna into the SmartRF04EB (EB). The connectors will only fit in one position, so that the EM cannot be inserted the wrong way. Caution! The kit contains ESD sensitive components. Handle with care to prevent permanent damage. To minimize risk of injury, avoid touching components during operation if symbolized as hot. 4a. Power: Battery There are three different ways of applying power to the EB: The first method involves using a battery, for instance a 9V battery (not included in the kit) connected to the connector on the bottom side of the board. Warning! To minimize risk of personal injury or property damage, never use rechargeable batteries to power the board. Do not leave the EVM powered when unattended. 4b. Power: DC/External The second method applies DC power (max 10 V, min 4 V, 1500 mA) using the DC input jack (right in picture, centre is +, sleeve is ground), or by connecting a 4 - 10 V voltage source between the 4 - 10 V and 0 V terminals of the power connector (left in picture). It is also possible to connect a 3.3 V voltage source between the 3.3 V and 0 V terminals. The on-board voltage regulators will be bypassed if the 3.3 V input terminal is used. 4c. Power: USB The EB can also be powered from the USB bus. Note that there should only be one active power source at any one time 5. Set Power Switch If a 3.3 V source is used as described in 4b above, the switch should be set to the leftmost position. For all other cases, the switch should be set to the rightmost position. This switch can be used to turn off the EB by switching it to the opposite position of that used to turn it on. 6. Packet Error Rate Test When power is applied to the board, the PER test program will start. You should see the text shown above on the LCD display on both evaluation boards. Press the button marked S1 (lower right corner) to continue. 7. Set Frequency Band Select the desired frequency band of operation by using the joystick. The frequency should match the evaluation module and antenna you are using. Note that the value shown in the display is also the selected value. There is no need to press a button to select or activate the selection. 8. Set Network ID Push the joystick down to display the screen shown above. This lets you set the ID of the node in case you need to run several PER tests simultaneously and you have multiple development kits. Leave this set to 1 for now. 9. Packet Length Push the joystick down to display the screen shown above. This lets you set the length of the packets to be transmitted. The packet length will affect the measured packet error rate. Push the joystick left or right to select the packet length you want to use. 10. Number of Packets Push the joystick down to display the screen shown above. This lets you set the number of packets to be transmitted. Set this to the desired value using the joystick. 11. Select RF Settings Push the joystick down to display the screen shown above. This lets you select preset RF configurations, including modulation and data rate Preset 0: GFSK, 1.2 kBaud Preset 1: GFSK, 10 kBaud Preset 2: GFSK, 38.4 kBaud Preset 3: GFSK, 250 kBaud 12. Select Mode Push the joystick down to display the screen shown above. Use the joystick to select master mode. The EB you have configured now will be the master in the PER test. 13. Configure 2 nd EB Perform steps 3 through 11 on the second EB. Push the joystick down until you get the display shown above. Leave this EB in slave mode. 14. Start PER Push the joystick down on both EBs, and the screen shown above is displayed. Push the joystick right on the slave EB first, and then push the joystick right on the master EB. The PER test will start when the two nodes have successfully connected. Note that the PER test uses 10 dBm as default output power, so the EBs should be placed at least 1m apart to avoid saturation of the receiver. 15. Run PER Test The uppermost line of the LCD will show the PER for packets transmitted from the slave to the master, while the second line will show the PER for packets transmitted from the master to the slave. The PER test will end when the number of packets you selected in step 10 is reached or if 100 consecutive packets are lost. 16.

Operational Description

Texas Instruments Norway AS Gaustadalléen 21 0349 Oslo Norway (+47) 22 95 85 44 (+47) 22 95 85 46 Technical Description The CC1101EM-868-915, see Figure 1, includes Texas Instruments’ CC1101, which is a sub-1 GHz transceiver designed for low power wireless applications. CC1101 has a balanced output (RF_N and RF_P), which is transformed to a single ended, 50 ohm signal through a passive component (capacitor/inductor) balun. The output of the balun is low pass filtered to attenuate harmonic radiation and then connected to an SMA connector. The antenna supplied with the board is W5012 from Pulse Electronics. The antenna datasheet is attached for further details. The CC1101EM-868-915 cannot be pre-programmed and CC1101 will not be in active mode (transmit or receive) at power-up. The user needs to configure CC1101 into active mode. Figure 1. CC1101EM-868-915
