It is a stand-alone system consisting of the DA14580 SoC in a QFN48 package, 16 MHz and 32 kHz crystals, a DC/DC converter and a printed antenna. The module was successfully tested for FCC/IC certification and CE marking. This document presents the module system, its technical specifications, physical dimensions and test results.  4  System overview   Features 4.1■ Highly integrated Dialog Semiconductor DA14580 Bluetooth® Smart SoC ■ Module can be used stand-alone or as a data pump in a system with an external processor ■ Antenna module in buck configuration certified according to FCC/IC and CE marking ■ Module meets all Bluetooth Smart requirements ■ No external crystal or additional passive components required for module operation ■ Access to processor via JTAG, SPI, UART or I2C ■ 32 GPIOs available on module at a 1.27 mm pitch, suitable for keyboard designs ■ Operating voltage: 2.4 V to 3.6 V, suitable for operation from a single cell coin battery ■ On-board printed inverted F-type antenna ■ Up to 0 dBm RF transmitted power ■ Receiver sensitivity: better than -92 dBm  ■ Supply current: □ Transmit/Receive mode: typ. 5 mA peak current @ 3.0 V  □ Sleep mode: typ. 2 µA average current ■ 17.89 mm x 25.4 mm, 38 pins, two layer PCBA   Electrical characteristics 4.2Table 1: QFN48 antenna module characteristics` Parameter  Description  Conditions  Min  Typ  Max  Unit VBAT  battery supply voltage    2.4  3.0  3.3  V fOPER  operating frequency    2400    2483.5  MHz PO  output power  conducted; VBAT = 3 V,  TA = 25 °C   0    dBm PSENS  sensitivity level VBAT = 3 V, TA = 25 °C   -92    dBm IBAT_TX  battery supply current  transmit mode; peak value; VBAT = 3 V, TA = 25 °C   5    mA IBAT_SLP  battery supply current  sleep mode; average value; VBAT = 3 V, TA = 25 °C   2    µA

Only one external power supply is required for operating the module.  DA14580 – 00AT1 XTAL32.768 kHz(optional)XTAL16 MHzAntennaMatching Figure 1: Antenna module block diagram   Bluetooth Smart SoC 4.4The DA14580 integrated circuit has a fully integrated radio transceiver and baseband processor for Bluetooth® Smart. It can be used as an application processor as well as a data pump in systems with an external processor.  The DA14580 contains an embedded One-Time-Programmable (OTP) memory for storing Bluetooth profiles as well as custom application code. The qualified Bluetooth Smart protocol stack which is stored in a dedicated ROM, and the customer application software which is stored in system RAM, both run on the embedded ARM® Cortex®-M0 processor. Low leakage Retention RAM is used to store sensitive data and connection information while in Deep Sleep mode. The radio transceiver implements the RF part of the Bluetooth Smart protocol. Together with the Bluetooth 4.0 PHY layer, it provides a 93 dB RF link budget for reliable wireless communication. All RF blocks are supplied by on-chip low drop out regulators (LDOs). The RF port is single ended 50 Ω, so no external balun is required.  The DA14580 has dedicated hardware for the Link Layer implementation of Bluetooth Smart and interface controllers for enhanced connectivity capabilities.  The DA14580 is equipped with a DC/DC converter that can be configured either for buck or boost mode operation. On this module both configurations are available. The default configuration is a buck mode DC/DC converter. Also, the FCC/ETSI certification is valid only for the buck configuration.

The interfaces are multiplexed with the GPIOs and can be enabled by appropriate programming. The available GPIO functions are presented in Table 3.  The following digital interfaces are available externally to the module: ● Two UARTs with hardware flow control up to 1 MBd ● SPI interface ● I2C bus at 100 kHz, 400 kHz ● 3-axis capable quadrature decoder In addition, a 4-channel 10-bit ADC is also available externally to the module.

The supply voltage of the module follows the specification of the DA14580 IC in buck configuration. The supply voltage ranges from 2.4 V to 3.6 V.  Embedded in the DA14580, the DC/DC converter and LDOs produce all voltages required for the system operation. The DC/DC converter is supplied from VBAT through a bead (FB1) and produces 1.4 V that feeds the internal LDOs. The LDOs supply the digital, analog and RF sections of the chip with 1.2 V. Finally, the I/O ring is supplied from VBAT.

To  compensate  for  ageing  and  offset effects, the external crystal of 16 MHz must have an accuracy of ±20 ppm or better. On the QFN48 antenna module the 16 MHz crystal (Y1) has a fundamental frequency of 16 MHz ±10 ppm and a load capacitance of 10 pF. The crystal is located on the module itself. The crystal oscillator frequency can be tuned using a programmable capacitance bank that is embedded in the DA14580.  For sleep mode the on-chip RCX oscillator is used (typ. 10 kHz). In addition, a 32.768 kHz crystal (Y2) with a tolerance of ±50 ppm can be mounted on the module.

Test setup 5.1.2The supply voltage (3.0 V DC) was connected between the PCB pads 27 (VBAT) and 26 (GND).  The R&S®CBT Bluetooth® Tester from Rohde & Schwarz was used. Component R5 was removed. The semi-rigid cable was soldered at this pad. See Figure 17.   Figure 17: Test setup for the conducted RF measurements   Test results 5.1.3The conducted RF sensitivity using a ‘dirty’ transmitter is better than -90 dBm for most channels. Lower sensitivity has been noticed on some channels. This is caused by harmonics of the 16 MHz oscillator. The results for one of the modules are shown Table 10.
