AT58L4M32-2020 5.8GHz User Guide

Description

AT58L4M32-2020 is a 5.8G radar sensor with low power consumption, which is launched by AirTouch. The power consumption is about 20mA, and the module size is 20mm * 20mm. The sensor adopts the self-developed radar induction chip AT58MP1T1RS32A, which integrates a 5.8GHz microwave circuit, an intermediate frequency amplifier circuit, a signal processing circuit, and a powerful MCU, with high integration and good production consistency, A miniaturized patch antenna is used in the periphery to ensure the performance of the sensor and greatly reduce the overall size. Because of its low power consumption, low cost, and compliance certification, the sensor has been widely used in intelligent lighting, smart home, and other fields. This scheme is the first choice for upgrading the traditional nonfixed frequency scheme, and also the preferred scheme for improving the performance of traditional 5.8G microwave induction products.INSTALLATION01

Input and Output Interface

Five pinholes are reserved in the module. There are five signal pins, VCC, GND, out, TX and Rx. The pin distance is 2.54mm. If you need to adjust the distance and delay time online, you can rewrite the internal parameters through the communication between TX, RX of UART with AT58MP1T1RS32A. The following table is the definition of each pin

Pin Name Function Note
VIN Power supply VCC is 5V by default, external LDO is needed if VCC

higher than 6V.
GND| Ground PIN|
OUT| Output control| Output is 5V TTL by default, could be PWM if needed
TX| TX of UART| used for software upgrade or performance parameter adjustment. The high level voltage is 3.3V
RX| RX of UART| used for software upgrade or performance parameter adjustment. The high level voltage is 3.3V

Module size and Pin position

Figure 2 below is the schematic diagram of module size and pin position. The length and width of the module is 20 mm * 20 mm. By default, there is no pin, and the overall thickness is 2.5 mm. If a pin is required, the default pin height is 12 mm.

The delay time and detection area The module has three pins by default, namely VCC, GND, and OUT. The delay time and detection distance are fixed values. If you need to adjust the delay time and detection distance and other related parameters, you need to add RX and TX pins as shown in Figure 3. The RX and TX interfaces in figure3 can be used as UART ports to adjust module parameters.
When they are used as UART ports, please refer to the document “AirTouch radar setting tool instructions” for detailed instructions. If the sensor is triggered again within the delay time, the timing will start again.INSTALLATION03

Photosensitive Detection

The module supports photosensitive detection. The sample module does not turn on the photosensitive detection function by default. The position shown in Figure 3 is the photodiode.
The photosensitive threshold can be adjusted by changing the photosensitive judgment threshold or tuning the photosensitive resistance. When the photosensitive function is turned on, the radar sensing will be started only when the ambient light is lower than the set value. If the light is too bright, the module will not start the sensing function.

Power on Sequence

The module has a power-on self-test function, that is, after the module is powered on, ,the out pin outputs the high level first, the low level is output after the delay of 2s, and the low level is delayed for 0.5s before entering the normal induction mode. The following is the sequence diagram of the control signal after the module is powered on:

INSTALLATION05

Detection Pattern

The sensing sensitivity of radar sensor can be configured by MCU, and its limit sensing distance is 20 meters. The actual sensing distance can be adjusted according to the needs. The following is the schematic diagram of radar detection range in case of high hanging. Ifn the sensitivity is set higher, the detection range will be correspondingly larger. In the figure, the dark area is the high sensitivity area, which can be fully detected, while the light area is
the low sensitivity detection area, which can basically detect objects.INSTALLATION04

Precautions

  • During installation, the front of the antenna shall be free of metal shell or parts to avoid signal shielding. Plastic or glass and other materials are allowed, but these materials shall not be close to the front of the antenna;
  • Try to avoid pointing the radar antenna at the large metal equipment or pipeline, etc;
  • When multiple radar modules are installed, the antennas of each radar module shall be parallel to each other as much as possible to avoid direct radiation between the antennas, and the distance  between the modules shall be more than 1m;
  • The radar sensor should avoid facing the AC driving power supply and keep away from the rectifier bridge of the driving power supply as far as possible to avoid the interference of the power frequency;
  • The power supply driving capacity of the radar module needs to be greater than 30mA, otherwise the sensor will work abnormally.
