Terminology
This module applies option selection jumpers. Terminology for application of the option
jumpers is as follows:
Jumper on, in, or installed = jumper is a plastic wired shunt that fits across 2 pins
and the shunt is installed so that the 2 pins are connected with the shunt.
Jumper off, out, or idle = jumper or shunt is installed so that only 1 pin holds the
shunt, no 2 pins are connected, or jumper is removed. It is recommended that
the jumpers be placed idle by installing on 1 pin so they will not be lost.
Signal names in this document that are followed by an asterisk (*) denote an active-low
signal.
Module Features
The MC13192U Transceiver Module is a low cost demonstration or application module
for the Freescale MC13192 Zigbee™capable or IEEE802.15 transceiver device. Module
operation is controlled by any host microcontroller with a Serial Peripheral Interface
(SPI) port. Interface connections are compatible with several Freescale microcontroller
DEMO and EVB development boards. Development of applications for several
microcontrollers is quick and easy with the included demonstration example software.

Standard installation places module at 90 degrees vertical to controller or host platform.
Versatile connection to host controller boards will allow stacking in different
configurations or connection by ribbon cable, contact Axiom with special requirements.
Module applies an embedded antenna and derives the 3.3V to 5.5V DC input power
from the supporting host platform so no other accessories are required. Mounting holes
are provided opposite from the connector to secure the module if required, 4-40 size
nylon or plastic hardware should be applied for this purpose.

Operational Description
The MC13192U provides an IEEE802.15.4 capable transceiver when operated
correctly. Transceiver operation is 2.4Ghz ISM band with 250Kbits a second O-QPSK
modulation and spread spectrum encoding. Module is interfaced to the host controller
by the Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) synchronous serial bus for command and data
transfer. Other 3 or 4 wire synchronous serial bus type are compatible also. Individual
control and status signals are applied by the host controller’s general purpose I/O ports,
refer to the connection charts for more details. Module power is derived from the host
controller also. The supporting controller’s regulated power supply should be able to
provide the 60ma required for module operation.

Operation of the module provides four basic modes that are inherent in the MC13192
transceiver device: Standby (sleep), Idle (enabled but not active), Receive, and
Transmit. Refer to the MC13192 reference manual for specific details on the modes. At
power on the MC13192 enters the Standby mode. Subsequent mode of operation is set
by commands from the host controller.
Status signals provide indication received data presence, transmit completion, channel
energy detection, frequency lock loss, and timer status. User should note that the
transmitter is automatically disabled and the Idle mode entered if a loss of frequency
lock is detected by the transceiver. This condition will provide an IRQ status signal and
it cannot be disabled.
Control signals select the module for SPI communication with the host, select the
antenna receive or transmit path, and enable an operation previously configured with
commands.
The module provides 16 preset channel frequencies between 2.405Ghz and 2.480Ghz
at a 5Mhz separation. Channel selection is by host controller command. The module
operates in half duplex mode, no reception is possible with the transmitter enabled.

The SMAC software package provides all necessary functions, operations, and controls
to operate the module correctly with several host controllers. Preset software definitions
and C language function calls provide an easy method to add new controller types or
adjust operation for particular applications. SMAC software power setting must be
TXpower = Nominal in all applications or the FCC registration is void and the
application may violate government regulations.

Module Option Jumpers
JP1 - Select Signal Option
JP1 provides the Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) device select signal option on the J1
connector. Two select signals maybe optioned incase the default connection is in use
by another peripheral. The SMAC software example will need to be configured to apply
the secondary signal. See the connection charts for the host controller to determine the
signal applied.
Position 1-2 (default): Enables the host MCU SPI port SS* signal or J1 pin 23 as the
MC13192U select signal.
Position 2-3: Enables the host MCU secondary select signal or J1 pin 24 as the
MC13192U select signal. See the connection charts to determine signal name applied
for particular host MCU.
JP2 – Clock-Out Enable Option
JP2 enables the MC13192 device optional clock output signal to connector J2 pin 14.
The clock output signal is not applied to the default application connector J1. See the
MC13192 device user guide and the SMAC software example for configuration of the
clock output signal if required.
J1 Connector – Default Host I/O Connection
J1 is the default application interface connector and it provides all power,
communication and status signals between the module and the host controller.
Connector organization is for a compatible installation in the Freescale DEMO series or
SLK series boards, and the Axiom CSM series. User should verify compatibility by
referring to the MC13192U Host controller signal chart.

3) J2 will align with the bottom half or GP Port pins 11 – 40 on the MC68EVB9S08GB60 board.
J104 – SMA Test Connector
J104 is provided for factory testing and verification. The user should not modify the unit
to apply J104.
Any modification to the module or application of an external antenna is
prohibited. Any change to the module from factory standard will render the
provided FCC registration void and possibly all other provided agency
certifications void. The user must assume full responsibility for module operation
and pursue the proper regulatory testing and agency registrations in this case!
Installation
The module applies the J1 connector, a 24 pin (2x12) right angle .1 inch space pin
header, for connection to the host controlling platform by default. This connector is
configured for compatibility with many Freescale DEMO series MCU boards or Axiom
CSM series microcontroller application boards, and the MCUSLK Project Board. User
should review the Supporting Platform section for standard connections to host
controller platforms.
