1. OVERVIEW
The WS2116-A0 is a sub-1GHz with PA and Bluetooth® low energy ultralow power wireless MCU
module. This module is built-in STM S2-LP and BlueNRG-2 chip.
The module is a cost-effective, high performance, ultra-low power, sub-1GHz and Bluetooth® low
energy RF devices. Very low active RF and MCU current and low-power mode current consumption
provide excellent battery lifetime and allow for operation on small coin cell batteries and in
energy-harvesting applications.
The module is also designed for Sigfox Monarch application.

All the IOs are in high impedance under reset. In low power modes (sleep and standby) the I/Os are configured as follows:
-DIO0 to DIO8 and DIO14 to DIO25 are in high impedance state.
-DIO9, DIO10, DIO11 are in input state with configurable internal pull by using the SLEEPIO_PE register. Please see the BlueNRG-2 datasheet for
details register information.
-DIO12, DIO13 are in input state no pull. If DIO12 or DIO13 are not used, they must be put at GND through pull-down resistor.
5.2. Debug Port
The BlueNRG-2 embeds the ARM serial wire debug (SWD) port. It is two pins (clock and single
bi-directional data) debug interface, providing all the debug functionality plus real-time access to
system memory without halting the processor or requiring any target resident code.

Pin Name
Pin description
SWCLK
DIO9
SWD clock signal
SWDIO
DIO10
SWD data signal
The Cortex-M0 subsystem of the BlueNRG-1 embeds two breakpoints and one watch point.
5.3. Debugging Tips
There are certain situations where debug access is disabled and the chip cannot be accessed,
including:
application that disables debug pins
application that set the device in sleep or standby state, in which the debug port is not
powered.
These cases are common during application development and device can end up in a state where
debug access is no longer possible. To recover this situation, it is recommended to force DIO7 pin
high and hardware reset the device in order to force execution of the updater code. The user can
then connect with SWD interface and erase the device Flash memory.
5.4. Pre-programmed bootloader
BlueNRG-2 device has a pre-programmed bootloader supporting UART protocol with automatic
baudrate detection. Main features of the embedded bootloader are:
____________________________________________________________________________________
Copyright © JORJIN TECHNOLOGIES INC. 2018
19
http://WWW.JORJIN.COM.TW
DOC No: WS2116-A0A-DTS-R04
Auto baudrate detection up to 460 kbps
Flash mass erase, section erase
Flash programming
Flash readout protection enable/disable
The pre-programmed bootloader is an application which is stored on the BlueNRG-1 internal ROM
at manufacturing time by STMicroelectronics. This application allows upgrading the device Flash
with a user application using a serial communication channel (UART).
Bootloader is activated by hardware by forcing IO7 high during power-up or hardware Reset,
otherwise, application residing in Flash will be launched.
The customer application must ensure that IO7 is forced low during power up. There is a built-in
100K pull-down resistor in IO7. Bootloader protocol is described in a separate application note.
5.5. TX/RX event alert
The BlueNRG-2 is provided with the ANATEST1 (pin 41 in the module) signal which alerts
forthcoming transmission or reception event. The ANATEST1 pin switches to high level about 18 μs
before transmission and about 10 us before reception. Then, it switches to low level at the end of
the event. The signal can be used for controlling external antenna switching and supporting
coexistence with other wireless technologies.
5.6. Standby mode of SKY66420-11
The DIO22, DIO23, DIO24 of BlueNRG-2 are in high impedance state under standby mode. The three
DIO pins must be pull-down 100K ohm resistors to GND in order to avoid unstable state issue for
mode setting of SKY66420-11 in the standby mode of the module.

5.8. Module Layout Recommendations
Power Trace – Power trace for VCC_PA should be 25mil wide. VBAT and VCC_S2LP traces
should be 15mil wide, at least.
RF Trace & Antenna
Keep 50ohm trace impedance.
Move all the high-speed traces and components far away from the antenna.
