Product Overview

Brief Introduction

• E70-900M14S1B adopts the original imported CC1312R from Texas Instruments (TI). It integrates a single-chip microcomputer and wireless transceiver, and uses a 48MHz industrial-grade high-precision low-temperature drift crystal oscillator to ensure its industrial characteristics and stable performance.
• The CC1312R chip has a built-in powerful 48MHz Arm Cortex-M4F processor, and has abundant peripheral resources such as UART, I2C, SPI, ADC, DMA, and PWM. The module leads to all the IO ports of the single-chip microcomputer, which can be used for multi-directional development. Since the E70-900M14S1B is a pure hardware SOC module, there is no program at the factory, and the user needs to develop it again before it can be used.

Basic operation

Hardware design

• It is recommended to use a DC stabilized power supply. The power supply ripple factor is as small as possible and the module needs to be reliably grounded;
• Please pay attention to the correct connection of the positive and negative poles of the power supply, reverse connection may cause permanent damage to the module;
• Please check the power supply to ensure that between the recommended supply voltage, if exceeding the maximum, the module will be permanently damaged;
• Please check the stability of the power supply. Voltage can not fluctuate greatly and frequently;
• When designing the power supply circuit for the module, it is often recommended to reserve more than 30% of the margin, so the whole machine is beneficial for long-term stable operation;
• The module should be as far away as possible from the power supply, transformers, high-frequency wiring and other parts with large electromagnetic interference;
• Bottom Layer High-frequency digital routing, high-frequency analog routing, and power routing must be avoided under the module. If it is necessary to pass through the module, assume that the module is soldered to the Top Layer, and the copper is spread on the Top Layer of the module contact part(well grounded), it must be close to the digital part of the module and routed in the Bottom Layer;
• Assuming the module is soldered or placed over the Top Layer, it is wrong to randomly route over the Bottom Layer or other layers, which will affect the module’s spurs and receiving sensitivity to varying degrees;
• It is assumed that there are devices with large electromagnetic interference around the module that will greatly affect the performance. It is recommended to keep them away from the module according to the strength of the interference. If necessary, appropriate isolation and shielding can be done;
• Assume that there are traces with large electromagnetic interference (high-frequency digital, high-frequency analog, power traces) around the module that will greatly affect the performance of the module. It is recommended to stay away from the module according to the strength of the interference.If necessary, appropriate isolation and shielding can be done;
• If the communication line uses a 5V level, a 1k-5.1k resistor must be connected in series (not recommended, there is still a risk of damage);
• Try to stay away from some physical layers such as TTL protocol at 2.4GHz , for example: USB3.0;
• The mounting structure of antenna has a great influence on the performance of the module. It is necessary to ensure that the antenna is exposed, preferably vertically upward. When the module is mounted inside the case, use a good antenna extension cable to extend the antenna to the outside;
• The antenna must not be installed inside the metal case, which will cause the transmission distance to be greatly weakened.

Software program

• The chip scheme of this module is the CC1312R of Texas Instruments (Texas Instruments), and the user can operate according to the CC1312R chip book provided by TI’s official website;
• Users can download the CC1312R software development kit on TI’s official website to effectively shorten the development cycle;
• If you encounter problems during the development process, you can log in to TI’s E2E community to ask questions, and TI’s technical staff will answer them

Program burn

| Description

Program burn

| The module is a SoC module with its own GPIO port. Program download uses the CC series dedicated downloader: JTAG downloader (or TI’s official CC1312 supporting development board). Serial ports or any other ISP or ICP tools cannot be used.

The figure below is a schematic diagram of the JTAG connection (XDS100). For the specific development method, please refer to the relevant Ti official documents (the TDI and TDO pins may not be connected).

FAQ

The communication range is too short

•  The communication distance will be affected when obstacle exists;
• Data lose rate will be affected by temperature, humidity and co-channel interference;
• The ground will absorb and reflect wireless radio wave, so the performance will be poor when testing near the ground;
• Seawater has great ability in absorbing wireless radio waves, so performance will be poor when testing near the sea;
• The signal will be affected when the antenna is near a metal object or put in a metal case;
• The power register was set incorrectly, air data rate is set as too high (the higher the air data rate, the shorter the distance);
• The power supply low voltage under room temperature is lower than 2.5V, the lower the voltage, the lower the transmitting power;
• Due to antenna quality or poor matching between antenna and module.

The module is easy to damage

• Please check the power supply source, ensure it is in right range, or the module will be damaged;
• Please check the stability of the power source, the voltage cannot fluctuate too much;
• Please make sure antistatic measures are taken when installing and using, high-frequency devices have electrostatic susceptibility;
• Please ensure the humidity is within a limited range, some parts are sensitive to humidity;
• Please avoid using modules under too high or too low temperatures.

BER(Bit Error Rate) is high

• There are co-channel signal interference nearby, please be away from interference sources or modify frequency and channel to avoid interference;
• Poor power supply may cause messy code. Make sure that the power supply is reliable;
• The extension line and feeder quality are poor or too long, so the bit error rate is high.
