MOD090-LP User’s ManualPAGE 4Technical support (650) 384-0000 www.avalanwireless.comTechnical SummaryThe MOD090 module allows you to build your own extreme-range, non-line-of-sight, point-to-multipoint wireless solution. The module uses the new technology in our 900Mhz and is fully FCC/IC certied for quick integration with no RF retesting required. The MOD090 solution offers the ideal combination of the maximum allowed transmit power and unbeatable interference immunity in conjunction with high throughput and validated encryption.The host microcontroller is responsible for conguring the keys that the MOD090-LP uses for RF communication/encryption, as well as transferring data to and from the MOD090-LP. The MOD090-LP features an 8kB transmit FIFO and a 5kB receive FIFO. The RF communication topology that the modules use is a point to multipoint star topology. There is one RF master Access Point (AP) and up to 63 RF slave Subscriber Units (SU).Data from the AP can be sent to one specic SU or broadcast to all SUs. Broadcast data has no retransmissions and is not guaranteed to reach all SUs. Data from an SU is always sent to the AP with retransmissions.Data is divided up into blocks for RF transmission. This division of the data allows for better interference immunity and re-transmission performance.The digital interface to the MOD090-LP may be SPI or UART, depending upon which rmware is running in the MOD090-LP.Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) is a full duplex synchronous serial interface. SPI is a master-slave interface, with the master providing the synchronous clock.Universal Asynchronous Receiver/Transmitter (UART) is an asynchronous serial interface that allows data to be transmitted without a clock signal, but the sender and receiver of the data must agree in advance on the timing parameters and spe-cial bits are added to each data byte to synchronize the sending and receiving units. Selecting SPI or UART:The choice of interface is up to the user and governed by the user's application and the nature of the host microcontroller. UART is more common, being closely related to RS-232. It is also places fewer demands on the host microcontroller. The UART interface is limited to 115,200 bits per second, while SPI may be run as high as 12 megabits per second. Whether the MOD090-LP uses SPI or UART is a choice that is controlled at boot up. By connecting a 10K resistor from Pin 8 (Error Flag) to Vcc (pull up), the MOD090-LP will boot up in UART mode. If the resistor is connected instead to ground (pull down), it will boot up in SPI mode.

The LEDs and DIP switches may still be employed, but the primary purpose of this SPI port has shifted. SPI1 now becomes an asynchronous UART with TX on pin 14 and RX on pin 15 and is used for data that is transmitted and received via the RF.At the risk of belaboring what is obvious and familiar to most engineers because of the long history of RS-232, the UART signals consist of a set of bits sent with a pre-dened clock rate. The sender must agree on what the rate is, and because the sender’s clock and receiver’s clock may not exactly agree, synchronization informa-tion is sent with each byte of data:Start Bit D0D1D2D3D4D5D6D7Stop BitTBaud Rate = 1/TSingle byte transmission (8 bits + Start + Stop)The Stop Bit can actually be any duration and provides the variable delay that allows synchronization between sender and receiver. Sometimes, the Stop Bit is specied to be at least two intervals. Also, sometimes a Parity Bit is sent between t0t1t2t3t4t5t6t7t8t9t10MarkSpace

The MOD090-LP can perform a spectrum analysis scan, stepping through the frequency band and measuring the peak and average power received at each frequency. Note: When two or more radios are actively linked, the AP will tell the SUs to cease transmitting when it goes into spectrum scan mode. However, when an SU scans, it will likely see a peak transmission from another radio.The host microcontroller sends the resolution settings to the MOD090-LP, then gets

The host microcontroller must de-lay while the MOD090-LP completes the scan before reading any data. In SPI mode, the MOD090-LP will use the Data Ready line (pin 9) to indicate when the scan is complete and the data is available.

A step size of 1 and exponent of 8 takes approximately 2 seconds to scan the band. A step size of 8 and exponent of 32 takes approximately 300ms to scan. Although a higher step size and lower exponent scan much faster, a complete pic-ture of the band may not be formed. Devices that only transmit for a very short period of time may be missed with a fast scan.

The range of this index is 0 to (128 − Frequency Step Size). For example, with a step size of 1, the maximum value of OFS is 127, but with a step size of 8, the maximum value is 120.PEAK is an 8-bit integer representing the peak power detected at each frequency.AVG is an 8-bit integer representing the average power detected at each frequency.Both the PEAK and AVG readings are a logarithmic scale, with a value of zero cor-responding to -100 dBm and a value of 255 corresponding to -15 dBm:Power in dBm = − (100 − ((Sample Value) / 3))Please be aware that this scale is approximate. Linearity is poor above -20 dBm or below -90 dBm.Data CommandsThe data commands are used to transfer data between the MOD090-LP and the host microcontroller that is intended for RF transmission.The MOD090-LP’s receive FIFO does not have data protection. This means that when data is received from the RF, the host microcontroller has up to 50ms to re-move the data from the FIFO before data corruption occurs.The transmit FIFO does utilize data protection. If the host microcontroller attempts to send data to the MOD090-LP while the transmit FIFO is full (indicated to the host microcontroller using the FIFO_Full line) the data will be discarded. Please note that in UART mode, there is no FIFO_Full line. Because the UART baud rate is much slower than the radio’s transmit rate, transmit overow should not occur. Data from the AP can be sent to one specic SU or broadcast to all SUs. Broadcast MOD090-LP5 KB Receive FIFO8 KB Transmit FIFOHost MicrocontrollerSPI or UARTdata has no retransmissions and is not guaranteed to reach all SUs. Data from an SU is always sent to the AP with retransmissions. Data is divided up into blocks for RF transmission. This division of the data allows for better interference immunity and re-transmission performance.
MOD090-LP User’s ManualPAGE 22Technical support (650) 384-0000 www.avalanwireless.comThe getPacket command is used to read received data from the MOD090-LP. The Data Ready line (pin 9) will be asserted when data is present in the receive FIFO and will remain asserted until all data is read. Once the Data Ready line has been asserted the host microcontroller has approximately 50ms until the data becomes corrupted in a high trafc scenario. Obviously in UART mode, the host microcon-troller must be ready to receive data at any time.getPacket SPI Mode: 0x0A UART Mode: N/Ab7 b6 b5 b4 b3 b2 b1 b0Byte 1 -ID6 ID5 ID4 ID3 ID2 ID1 ID0Byte 2 S7 S6 S5 S4 S3 S2 S1 S0Byte 3 - - - - - S10 S9 S8Byte 4 DATA7 DATA6 DATA5 DATA4 DATA3 DATA2 DATA1 DATA0... Byte 4 is repeated until all the data is receivedID0 to ID6 is the 7-bit integer Device ID of the Subscriber Unit the data was received from (Access Point only, for a Subscriber Unit the data is undened).S0 to S10 is the 11-bit integer size of the Data packet in bytes (number of data bytes to read).The setPacket command is used to submit data to the transmit FIFO for RF transmission. The FIFO Full line (Pin 10) will be asserted if the transmit FIFO cannot accept any more data. If the host microcontroller attempts to submit data while the FIFO Full line is asserted then the Error Flag will also become asserted and the data being submitted will not be entered into the FIFO. In UART mode, the host microcontroller is responsible for avoiding overow.setPacket SPI Mode: 0x8A UART Mode: 0x89b7 b6 b5 b4 b3 b2 b1 b0Byte 1 BC ID6 ID5 ID4 ID3 ID2 ID1 ID0Byte 2 S7 S6 S5 S4 S3 S2 S1 S0Byte 3 - - - - - S10 S9 S8Byte 4 DATA7 DATA6 DATA5 DATA4 DATA3 DATA2 DATA1 DATA0...

ID0 to ID6 is the 7-bit integer Device ID of the Subscriber Unit that is to receive the data. Note that if BC = 1 and there is a non-zero Device ID specied, then all Subscribers but the one specied will receive the data.S0 to S10 is the 11-bit integer size of the Data packet in bytes (number of data bytes being sent).Reset CommandThe setReset command is used to reset the MOD090-LP and can be issued at any time durning normal operation. After a reset has been issued the MOD090-LP takes approximately 300 ms to restart. After restart all previously congured data (Public and Private Keys, Device ID and type) will be lost.setReset SPI Mode: 0x85 UART Mode: 0x84There are no other bytes required to reset the device. The host microcontroller should simply issue the setReset command.Firmware UpgradingIf an update of the MOD090-LP’s rmware becomes desirable, a new rmware im-age will be supplied by AvaLAN. If a USB interface exists, such as that used in the EVAL board and recommended for UART applications, then the rmware upgrade will be handled by a software utility provided by us. If the MOD090-LP is used in SPI mode and you wish to build rmware update into your host microcontroller’s code, here is how to do it.The following information applies to SPI Mode only:Once a setFirmwareStart (0x8B) command has been issued to the MOD090-LP, all other commands except for setPacket (0x8A) and setFirmwareEnd (0x8C) become invalid and will cause the Error Flag to assert if they are issued. The host micro-controller must deassert the /CS_BB line (pin 12) and then wait for a minimum of 5 µs and the DATA Ready line (pin 9) to be asserted before reasserting /CS_BB to send the rst data block.The rmware image is partitioned into data blocks with a payload size of 64 bytes. Each block is sent as it’s own transaction and must use the setPacket command to be issued to the MOD090-LP. Since data can be submitted to the MOD090-LP faster than it can be stored in ash, the FIFO Full line must be carefully observed to make sure none of the blocks are lost.
MOD090-LP User’s ManualPAGE 24Technical support (650) 384-0000 www.avalanwireless.comIf the last rmware block is not a full 64 bytes, it must be padded with zeros.setPacket SPI Mode: 0x8Ab7 b6 b5 b4 b3 b2 b1 b0Byte 1 BC ID6 ID5 ID4 ID3 ID2 ID1 ID0Byte 2 S7 S6 S5 S4 S3 S2 S1 S0Byte 3 - - - - - S10 S9 S8Byte 4 OFS7 OFS6 OFS5 OFS4 OFS3 OFS2 OFS1 OFS0Byte 5 OFS15 OFS14 OFS13 OFS12 OFS11 OFS10 OFS9 OFS8Byte 6 DATA7 DATA6 DATA5 DATA4 DATA3 DATA2 DATA1 DATA0Byte 7 DATA15 DATA14 DATA10 DATA9 DATA8...

(Byte 1 is 0x80.)S0 to S10 must be set to 68. (Byte 2 is 0x44 and Byte3 is 0x00.)OFS0 to OFS15 is the 16-bit integer rmware block number. This value will be included in the checksum calculation.DATA0 to DATA15 is the 16-bit rmware data, 32 values per block.CHK0 to 15 is the 16-bit integer checksum value for the block. It is calculated in the host microcontroller as follows:1. Initialize a 16-bit register to 0x1911.2. Add the 16-bit data value to the register beginning with the rmware block number.3. Perform a rotate left with no carry by 5 bit positions.4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 for all 34 words (OFS and DATA).Once all blocks have been submitted to the MOD090-LP, then the host micro-controller must issue the setFirmwareEnd (0x8C) command. Once the setFirm-wareEnd command has been issued to the MOD090-LP, the host microcontroller must wait for the programming to complete. The MOD090-LP will indicate this by deasserting the Data Ready line (pin 9). Once the Data Ready line is deasserted, programming is complete and it is safe to reset the MOD090-LP with the setReset command (0x85). A reset is required before the MOD090-LP will begin executing the new rmware image.
