DLP-RF2
RF OEM Transceiver Module (Preliminary)
The DLP-RF2 combines a Freescale™ MC13192 2.4GHz Direct-
Sequence, Spread-Spectrum RF Transceiver IC and Freescale
MC9S08GT60 microcontroller to form an IEEE 802.15.4 compliant,
ZigBee™ ready, short-range transceiver module. The DLP-RF2 connects
to user electronics via a standard, 20-pin male header.
The MC9S08GT60 microcontroller is preprogrammed with DLP Design’s
Serial Interface Packet Processor (SIPP™ firmware) for accessing the
transceiver functions via simple serial calls. Interface to an external serial
host microcontroller/DSP/FPGA, etc. is accomplished via a simple 2-wire (RX, TX, and ground)
interface.
The SIPP firmware in the DLP-RF2 resides at the application layer and is based on Freescale’s
SMAC. The SIPP firmware provides basic access to DLP-RF2 functionality: Packet receive and
transmit, transceiver settings, EEPROM access, etc. The DLP-RF2 can also operate without a
serial host controller. Basic digital I/O, A/D conversions, temperature measurement, and
latching/non-latching relay control are available via the SIPP firmware.
The MC9S08GT60 can be reprogrammed (if desired) with user-supplied firmware via a 6-pin
BDM header that is compatible with the P&E USB-ML-12 and device programmers (purchased
separately).
