This bundle helps users evaluate the key features of RF430F5978 MCU: 3D LF wake-up and trigger function, passive battery-less transponder operation, and resonant trimming. The bundle includes a USB plug-in LF trigger module (MRD2EVM micro reader), RF430F5978 MCU evaluation board (RF430F5978EVM), AP434R01 access point, and 3D LF antenna. Using this EVM bundle, a typical demo application can be set up in which the RF430F5978 captures data from multiple sensors over a period of time and, after it is triggered by the LF wake-up trigger from the reader, it transmits the collected data to the access point via RF link. This data is then sent on to the included host GUI to visualize the data curve and position of the object. Features and benefits of the RF430F5978 MCU: • Reduces power consumption by allowing the shutdown of the RF radio and quick startup with the LF wake-up function, thus significantly extending battery life. • Tracks its position and distance (within ±5 cm) relative to the 3D LF transponder using RSSI (return signal strength indicator) within a 4-m radius of the reader's LF trigger. • Protects sensitive data and prevents signal interference with the AES security coprocessor that allows data encryption for product authentication and secure access control. • Provides flexible customization at ultra-low power with the programmable MSP430 core. • Accommodates a wide range of regional Sub-1GHz frequencies from 300 to 950 MHz. • Reduces board size and cost with the integration of several key functions into a single MCU. • Works with complementary TI components, such as TPS62163 and TPS62082 power management ICs, the SimpleLink™ Wi-Fi® CC3100, and bq24040 IC. 2 Related Documentation from Texas Instruments The primary sources of RF430 information are the device-specific data sheets and user's guides.

RF430F5978EVM Block Diagram 4 Introduction The RF430F5978EVM, including the user software, is a complete evaluation platform to evaluate the key features of RF430F5978: • 3D LF long-range trigger and wake-up function • Passive batteryless transponder communication • Resonant trimming In a typical sequence, the MRD2EVM LF transmitter sends a 64-bit wake pattern and, as soon as the RF430F5978EVM board is within the supply range (typically 2 m with the components in this kit but can reach up to 10 m with an LF power transmitter) and detects a valid wake pattern, then activates the microcontroller. The microcontroller then measures the receive signal strength (RSSI) of all three axes on the 3D LF antenna, interprets the orientation and distance of the device, measures the temperature, battery, and system voltage, and sends the information through the onboard UHF transceiver to the AP434R01 access point. 4 RF430F5978EVM User Guide SLRU007 – July 2014 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright © 2014, Texas Instruments Incorporated Introduction www.ti.com The returned data is visualized by the user software GUI, which shows the signal strength on all three axes, the temperature, and the supply voltage logging data (see Table 1 and Figure 3).

The following procedure can be used to convert the RSSI reading to an absolute power level (RSSI_dBm) 1. Read the RSSI status register 2. Convert the reading from a hexadecimal number to a decimal number (RSSI_dec) 3. If RSSI_dec ≥ 128 then RSSI_dBm = (RSSI_dec – 256)/2 – RSSI_offset 4. If RSSI_dec < 128 then RSSI_dBm = (RSSI_dec)/2 – RSSI_offset Refer to the device-specific data sheet for typical RSSI offset values and for typical RSSI values vs input power levels at various frequencies. The RF430F5978EVM power condition meets following regulations: FCC 5.231 ETSSI 300 220 ETSSI 300 330 ETSSI 301 489 (2) Link Quality Indicator (LQI) The Link Quality Indicator is a metric of the current quality of the received signal. If PKTCTRL1.APPEND_STATUS is enabled, the value is automatically added to the last byte appended after the payload. The value can also be read from the LQI status register. The LQI gives an estimate of how easily a received signal can be demodulated by accumulating the magnitude of the error between ideal constellations and the received signal over the 64 symbols immediately following the sync word. LQI is best used as a relative measurement of the link quality (a low value indicates a better link than what a high value does), because the value is dependent on the modulation format. (Mask out bit7, as LQI = bit6 to bit0) 4.
