DESCRIPTION

DRF5150S is a type of low-cost sub-1 GHz transmitter module designed for operations in the unlicensed ISM (Industrial Scientific Medical) and LPRD bands. GFSK (Frequency Shift Keying) modulation/demodulation, multi-channel operation, high bandwidth efficiency and anti-blocking performance make DRF5150S modules easy to realize the robust and reliable wireless link. The module integrates 12bit high resolution ADC which can be used to connect different types of analogue or digital sensors such as PT1000, DS18B20, SHT21/25, etc. Users don’t need to write codes between sensor and DRF5150S module and no external MCU or other components needed. For the simplest application users can solder sensor on the pins of DRF5150 module to build a wireless sensor transmitting system easily. DRF5150S module can collect data from sensors and send it to transceiver module DRF4432S at configurable intervals, which minimizes the BOM cost and reduces development time for new projects. The module can be configured to work in different channels with 200k Hz space. Through DRF Tool users also can change other parameters such as serial data rate, center frequency, output power, transmit interval, sensor types, etc. DRF5150S integrates 256 bytes buffer. When the buffer is empty, users can transfer 256 bytes data per time and even limitless data transfer can be achieved as long as RF data rate (RF module to RF module) is configured to be faster than serial data rate (MCU to RF module). DRF5150S operates at 2.1~3.6V with extra low standby current which makes it suitable for battery powered-up applications.

Parameter Setting Users can configure the parameters (frequency, data rate, group ID, etc.) of DRF modules with RS232 converter board DAC01 or USB c onverter board DAC02 by configuration tool DRF TOOL5150. Because DRF4432S shares the sa me configuration tool with DRF5150S, some parameters such as slave ID, Tx interval, etc are not applicable for receiver module DRF5150S. Firstly users need to insert module into converter board, connect converter board to PC and then open DORJI RF software. In Windows XP system, the software can be run directly but in Windows Vista/7 system users should run it as administrator. After that the status column of tool should display “Found Device”. Users then can read/write the module. For more details, please check the operation manuals of converter boards on accessory page.

Revision 1.30 Page of 10 Oct. 2012 Figure 1: DRF TOOL 5150/4432 WORKING MODES DRF5150S modules can work in two modes: Data transmission mode and Sensor data mode. In data transmission mode DRF5150S module acts as transparent data transmitter and it receives data from MCU or other hosts and then sends them to other modules. Under sensor data mode, DRF5150S can sample signal from two input pins, process and then send to other modules. 1. DATA TRANSMISSION MODE In this mode DRF5150S module is common data transmitter module. It doesn’t contain ID will not transmit data automatically at the preset interval. The 5 th pin is used as enable pin.

Revision 1.30 Page of 10 Oct. 2012 When it is in high level, the module will enter into sleep mode and the current is about 1.5uA. When the 5th pin is connected to low the module will work in receive mode. The 6 th pin will be set to low when DRF5150S receives the first byte of data and it will be set to high after transmission is finished so it can be used to monitor transmit status. The module will detect the status of the 5 th pin after transmission is finished so users can set the 5 th pin to high after MCU sends out all the data. If the data package is less than 60 bytes DRF5150S module will begin to transmit after the whole package is received. If the data package size is larger than 60 bytes it will split the package into smaller package size (60 bytes) and send them out serially. DRF5150S integrates 256 bytes buffer. If the buffer is empty users can send 256 bytes of data one time. When the RF GFSK data rate is faster than serial data rate the size of data package can be limitless. 100ohm MCU DRF5150 GND VCC VCC TXD RXD GPIO RXD TXD AUX GND VCC Figure 2: DRF5150S in Data Transmission Mode 2. SENSOR DATA MODE In this mode DRF5150S module contains ID and it will transmit at the preset interval. The ID includes two parts: Group ID and Slave ID. The transceiver module DRF4432S will be used as receiver module. When the group ID of DR F4432S is the same as DRF5010S10’s or its ID is 0x00, it can receive the data sent from DRF 5150S and will append RSSI information to the data package and then transfer the processed data to MCU. In order to avoid data bump, DRF5150S transmits randomly in the period of ±10%*interval. For example: If the Tx interval is set to 1s, the DRF5150S module will transmit randomly between 0.9s and 1.1s. Because of short data package, the feature can let many DRF5150S modules work with the same settings with little interference and DRF4432S module can read the data correctly. The transmitted data format of DRF5150S: ID (group ID+ Slave ID)+ Data+ Bat The output data format of DRF4432S: ID (group ID + slave ID) +Data + Bat + RSSI Data Format Group ID Slave ID Data Bat RSSI Length(byte) 1 1 2~4 1 1 Table 5: DRF5150S Data Format

Revision 1.30 Page of 10 Oct. 2012 The data package varies between 2 and 4 bytes and its length will depend on the selection of sensor type from the configuration tool. Bat is one byte of battery information. The calculation function is: Battery voltage= (Bat+200)/100. Figure 3: RSSI vs Input Power The relationship of the field strength of receive d signal (RSSI) and input power is showed as the picture above. The higher value of RSSI mean s more reliable wireless link. If the RSSI < 0x40 at 50K bps RF data rate or RSSI < 0x30 at 6.25k bps RF data rate, it means the field strength is too weak and the probability of package loss will increase. DRF5150S integrates a 12bit ADC. When connecting to analogue sensor, the output data is 2 bytes which ranges from 0x0000~0xFFFF. For digital sensors DRF5150S module will read out data without process so users can refer to the datasheets of corresponding sensors and make calculation. 1) Analogue Sensor Mode In this mode DRF5150S module will use integrated 12bit ADC. The 5 th pin will be used as analogue input and Vref will be connected to VCC pin. The module will sample the analogue signal at intervals. When one Tx interval finishes, the module firstly set the 6 th pin AUX from High to Low. After 1ms the internal ADC will sample 6 times and then set AUX to High. After removing the highest and the lowest values, the module will output the average of 4 sampling values. Users can connect a analogue sensor such as PT1000 and connect a high resolution resistor between the 5 th pin and the 6th pin. The value of resistor is usually equal to the resistance of analogue sensor. The Max. drive-in of the 6th pin AUX is 20mA. Being connecting different resistors the voltage drop on AUX has slightly difference so

Revision 1.30 Page of 10 Oct. 2012 specification of sensors a filtering capacitor is needed to be connected between VCC and GND. For SHT1x series of sensor, DRF5150S module support high resolution measurement. As to SHT2x series of sensor s, it also supports two measurement modes: low resolution and high resolution. When the distance between digital sensor and DRF5150S module is less than 30cm, no pull-up resistor is needed. However when the distance exceeds 30cm, the distributed capacitance must be taken into consideration. The pull-up resistors are needed to add and the actual values of resistors will be selected according to the specifications of sensor products but the Max. distance should not exceed 2m. The 6 th pin AUX is connected to the GND of digital sensor so it will be kept in low in use. Users also can choose connect the GND of digital sensors to the GND of DRF5150S module and keep AUX suspended.
