2 Wire Serial
Output Power

For Use With/related Products
MC13193, MC9S08GT60
Lead Free Status / RoHS Status
Lead free / RoHS Compliant
The DLP-RF2-Z combines a Freescale™ MC13193 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-Z 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-Z resides at the application layer and is based on Freescale’s SMAC.
The SIPP firmware provides basic access to DLP-RF2-Z functionality: Packet receive and transmit,
transceiver settings, EEPROM access, etc. The DLP-RF2-Z 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).

... ID (packet destination), the source transceiver ID (packet origin), and a command byte. As shipped from DLP Design, the DLP-RF2-Z has more than one DLP-RF2 used in a system, then this ID must be changed to a value higher than 2. Upon reset or power up, the ID is read from non-volatile EEPROM memory. If JP1 is shorted at power up (or before a reset), the default ID for the DLP-RF2-Z is set to 2 and other transceiver settings are also returned to a default state in the EEPROM ...

... Reserved EEPROM Locations The EEPROM memory is a feature of the SIPP firmware and, as such, is only available if using the DLP-RF2-Z with its firmware as shipped from DLP Design. The EEPROM memory used by the SIPP firmware consists of a block of 32 bytes that reside within the Flash program memory of the MC9S08GT60. The first 10 bytes (0-9) and the last byte (31) are reserved for storing transceiver settings and checksum. Bytes 10 through 30 (user area) are available for use by user’ ...

... Command Packets. In the case of the DLP-RF2-Z, the host is the user-supplied serial host microcontroller/DSP/FPGA, etc Command Packet is received by the DLP-RF2-Z via the serial host interface with a destination ID that matches the ID stored in the EEPROM of the DLP-RF2-Z, then the MC9S08GT60 will process the packet and reply to the serial host controller. If the ID in the packet does not match the ID stored in EEPROM, then the packet is intended for a different destination and is transmitted via the transceiver ...

... The data bytes stored at EEPROM Locations 4 and 5 hold values that, when combined, are used to set the length of time that the DLP-RF2-Z will remain asleep or in Low-Power Mode. The range of time that the DLP-RF2-Z can be left asleep is from 5 seconds to 3.8 days. When this amount of time has elapsed, the MC9S08GT60 is brought out of Low-Power Mode, and a packet is sent as a broadcast packet (Destination ID=0) containing Command 0xC2 ...
