Application Information

There are some special considerations for the use of the TINYTM module, namely:

  • The RST signal is shared with the MOSI input of the NOR flash. For this reason, RST must not be driven to GND. When the internal Flash is in use, the reset functionality is not available
  • The SPI Bus of DA14535 is used for the communication of the SoC with the NOR Flash at boot time. Three of the four signals are not driven to external module pins. For this reason, a sensor that utilizes the SPI bus must be assigned (by software) to the module pins to communicate with after the boot is completed and when NOR Flash is no longer in use. An example is given in Figure 12.

RENESAS-DA14535MOD-SmartBond-TINY-Bluetooth-LE-Module-fig- (8)

Note that the P0_0/RST pin (J12) should not be driven while the TINYTM module boots from its internal SPI FLASH.

Design Guidelines

  • The DA14535 SmartBond TINY™ Module comes with an integrated PCB trace antenna. The antenna area is 12×4 mm. The antenna’s Voltage Standing Wave Ratio (VSWR) and efficiency depend on the installation location.
  • The radiation performance of the PCB trace antenna depends on the host PCB layout. The maximum antenna gain is -0.5 dBi when installed on a 50×50 mm reference board, as shown in Figure 21. The radiation pattern is omnidirectional.
  • The RF front end is optimized to achieve the maximum possible efficiency for various installation positions of the module on a host PCB. To obtain a similar performance, follow the guidelines described in the following sections.

Installation Location 

  • For optimum performance, install the module at the edge of a host PCB with the antenna edge facing out. The module can be located on either of the outer corners or the middle of the host PCB with equivalent performance.
  • The antenna should have 4 mm free space in all directions. Copper or laminate in the proximity of the PCB trace antenna will affect the efficiency of the antenna. Laminate or copper under the antenna should be avoided as it severely affects the performance of the antenna. The antenna keep-out area can be seen in Figure 11.
  • Metals close to the antenna will degrade the antenna’s performance. The amount of degradation depends on the host system’s characteristics.
  • Table 10 summarizes the antenna efficiency at different installation locations on a host PCB as shown in Figure 10.

Antenna Graphs
The antenna VSWR measurements for the three installation positions are shown in the following figures.

Radiation Pattern
The antenna radiation pattern measurements are carried out in an anechoic chamber. Radiation patterns are presented for three measurement planes: XY-, XZ-, and YZ- planes with horizontal and vertical polarization of the receiving antenna.

Measurements are carried out for the module installed in the upper right corner of the reference board with no laminate below the antenna trace.

Soldering

  • The successful reflow soldering of the DA14535 TINYTM Module on a PCB depends on several parameters such as the thickness of the stencil, the pads solder paste aperture, the solder paste characteristics, the reflow soldering profile, size of the PCB, and so on.
  • The volume of solder paste applied to the board is mainly determined by the aperture size and stencil thickness. An initial solder paste aperture for the pads is provided on the solder paste layer of the PCB footprint. This aperture is modified by the assembly process experts according to stencil thickness, solder paste, and available assembly equipment.
  • The solder profile depends on the solder paste type used. For example, the soldering profile of a lead-free solder paste, Sn3Ag0.5Cu with no clean Flux (ROL0) and Solder Powder Type 4, is presented below.
  • No clean flux is recommended because washing must not be applied after assembly to avoid moisture being trapped under the shield.

In setting up the configurations, if the pairing and call box options for testing does not work, then the host product manufacturer should coordinate with the module manufacturer for access to test mode software.

Additional testing, Part 15 Subpart B disclaimer:
The modular transmitter is only FCC authorized for the specific rule parts (FCC Part 15.247) list on the grant, and that 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. The final host product still requires Part 15 Subpart B compliance testing with the modular transmitter installed when contains digital circuity.

RF Exposure Statement
This device complies with IC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment and meets RSS-102 of the IC radio frequency (RF) Exposure rules. This transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.

OEM Responsibilities to comply with IC Regulations
OEM integrator is responsible for testing their end product for any additional compliance requirements needed for the module installation like IC ES003 (EMC). This can be combined with the FCC Part 15B test.

End product labeling
The DA14535 SmartBond TINYTM Module is labeled with its own IC ID: 9576A-DA14535MOD. If the IC ID is not visible when the module is installed inside another device, then the host product must be labelled to display the ISED certification number for the module, preceded by the word “contains” or similar wording expressing the same meaning, as follows: Contains IC: 9576A-DA14535MOD.”
