ubisys M7B-Q95 Zigbee Luminaire Module

OVERVIEW

The ubisys wireless connectivity module series M7B-Q95-B -power wireless system on chip, which comprises an ARM Cortex-M4, 512KB flash ROM, 64 KB SRAM and a multi-channel, multi-protocol radio with quasi-concurrent support for IEEE 802.15.4 (zigbee, rf4ce, Thread) and Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE). Additional flash memory is available on the module to store over-the-air upgrade images or other data.

The-loaded applications, which greatly simplify the design and manufacturing of connected products. For example, ready-to-use applications for typical lighting control applications are available, which can directly steer power stages using PW M signals or analogue control circuits using 0-10V signals. In addition, customized firmware can be ordered, which allows interfacing to existing digital control circuits using proprietary protocols running over UART, SPI or I²C.

These modules are the perfect choice for manufacturers who want to produce standards-compliant products in order to take advantage of direct device-to- device communications within Zigbee mesh networks. This creates opportunities with established eco-systems like Philips hue, IKEA Trådfri, amazon Echo with integrated Zigbee Hub, OSRAM Lightify, and, of course, ubisys Smart Home, as well as other platforms based on Zigbee technology.

These special purpose debugging and firmware programming signals need to be handled with care. Specifically, the application circuit must be designed in a way that does not start the processor in programming/debugging mode. If in- application debugging is desired, avoid using any of the signals below and route them to a suitable probe connector.

TEST AND LATE CUSTOMIZATION INTERFACE

Depending on the pre-loaded firmware version, a test and late-customization interface with accompanying tools is available. This is a two-wire interface, where the module acts as an I2C slave, and a production tool acts as I2C master. This interface allows late changes to the factory block for OEMs, and other application specific customizations and test modes.

Please contact ubisys support for additional details.

MOUNTING

M7B-Q95-B

The M7B-Q95-B module was designed for horizontal or vertical mounting. Based on the application one of these can be chosen. On boards where large components could affect the antenna performance the vertical mounting offers a second option.

Horizontal Mounting

In a horizontal position the module is soldered in by using the soldering pads on the left and right side. All pads are designed to solder the module by hand or reflow.

W hen mounted in horizontal position there are two mandatory keep-out areas. One area is needed for the antenna, the second area clears the area of the bottom mounting pads for vertical mounting on the short side of the module. The antenna keep-out applies to all layers of the base board. There shall not be any components, traces, pads or copper areas in any layer within the keep- out area or metal parts, housings or screws close to it.

Vertical Mounting

The M7B-Q95-B module can be mounted in a vertical position by using the soldering pads on the short side of the module.

It can be soldered between pin rows of a 2-row 1.27mm pin header (2×8) or in slot on the base board with soldering pads at the edges of the slot.

FC C ID: 2AW GH-M7B-Q95-B
W hile the applicant for a device into which the M7B-Q95-B is installed is not required to obtain a new authorization for the module, this does not preclude the possibility that some other form of authorization or testing may be required for the end product.

The FCC requires the user to be notified that any changes or modifications made to this device that are not expressly approved by ubisys technologies GmbH may void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.

W hen using the M7B-Q95-B with approved antenna, it is required to prevent end-users from replacing them with non-approved ones.

Co-location of this module with other transmitter that operate simultaneously are required to be evaluated using the FCC multi-transmitter procedures.

If the host manufacturer uses the module in a Mobile configuration then the following text is placed in the host product, user guide:

This device complies with FCC RF radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment, and must be installed with a separation distance of at least 20cm from all persons.
If the RF exposure conditions are different after module integration into a host product (eg: Portable usage, or co-location with another transmitter/ antenna), the this text must be altered as appropriate

This modular transmitter is only FCC authorized for the specific rule parts (i.e., FCC transmitter rules) listed on the grant, and the host product manufacturer is responsible for compliance to any other FCC rules that apply to the host not covered by the modular transmitter grant of certification.

If the grantee markets their product as being Part 15 Subpart B compliant (when it also contains unintentional-radiator digital circuity), then the grantee shall provide a notice stating that the final host product still requires Part 15 Subpart B compliance testing with the modular transmitter installed

FCC Labelling Requirements

W hen integrating the M7B-Q95-B into a product it must be ensured that the FCC labelling requirements are met. This includes a clearly visible label on the outside of the finished product specifying the ubisys technologies GmbH FCC identifier (FCC ID: 2AW GH-M7B-Q95-B) as well as Transmitter Module FCC ID: 2AW GH-M7B-Q95-B 2AW GH-M7B-Q95-B although any similar wording that expresses the same meaning may be used.
