　　nxp公司的OL2385是用于工业环境的全集成单片RF收发器,包括稳定的晶振,分数N锁相环(PLL),低噪音放大器(LNA),用于自动增益控制(AGC)的衰减器,I/Q下混合器和两个高分辨率10位ADC.工作频率160 MHz - 960 MHz,工作速率高达400 kbit/s 4FSK,主要用在智能计量,家庭和建筑物安全和自动化(KNX-RF),遥控,无线医疗,无线传感器网络,工业监视和控制以及低功耗宽域网(SigFox).本文介绍了OL2385主要特性和优势,框图以及OM2385/FS001开发板主要特性,框图,参考设计板和屏蔽板电路图.

　　The device incorporates several commonly used building blocks including a crystalstabilized oscillator, a fractional-N based Phase Locked Loop (PLL) for accuratefrequency selection in both TX and RX, Low Noise Amplifier (LNA), attenuator forAutomatic Gain Control (AGC), I/Q down-mixer and two high resolution Analog to Digital

　　Converters (ADC).The conversion into the digital domain is done in an early phase,enabling a software defined radio like approach.By transforming signals in the digital domain in an early phase, one highly configurable RX channel is available including channel mixer, channel filter, ASK/FSK demodulator,clock-data recovery, bit processor and a micro-controller memory interface (DMA)allowing the micro-controller to complete the data handling and handshaking.

　　The device has an embedded RISC micro-controller optimized for high performance and low power as well as an EROM for customer applications. The device also includes a medium power UHF transmit system with a high dynamic range of -35dBm to +14dBm which makes it ideal for the use in narrow band communication systems. The TX system allows transmission with data rates up to 400 kbit/s NRZ.Power ramping and splatter avoidance filters are included to ensure that the transmit spectrum fulfills all the common standards in Europe, USA and Asia. The phase noise of the transmitter supports ARIB operation.

　　The device includes a series of timers to allow for autonomous polling and wake-up applications. The TX and RX data buffers are located in the RAM with autonomous direct memory access (DMA), reducing the ’real-time’ overhead for the accompanying micro-controller. The device can be interfaced via SPI, UART or LIN protocol compatible UART. Simplified programming of the device is facilitated by the HAL (Hardware Abstraction Layer).

　　The transceiver is configured to operate with low active and standby power consumption,ideal for battery powered applications.

　　OM2385/FS001开发板

　　The OM2385/FS001 development kit provides an evaluation platform for designing SIGFOX network applications that use NXP’s OL2385 single-chip RF transceiver. The kit consists of three boards: the OL2385 Shield Board, the OL2385 Reference Design Board and a FRDM-KL43Z board. The OL2385 Reference Design board is permanently affixed to the surface of the OL2385 Shield Board. The Reference Design Board contains an embedded OL2385 transceiver and serves as a wireless modem. When connected to an antenna (included in the kit), it provides all the functionality required to communicate with the SIGFOX network. The OL2385 Shield Board contains connectors for external communication. The Shield Board is mounted by means of four Arduino™ connectors to the FRDM-KL43Z. The FRDM-KL43Z acts as the communication link between the development kit and a PC. It comes pre-loaded with microcode that manages the interface between the PC and the OL2385 reference board. Users must initially register their device with SIGFOX using a unique ID and access code provided with the kit. Once the device has been registered, the kit can be used to connect to the SIGFOX network and test the functionality of the OL2385-based application under development.

　　To interact with the development kit, users must connect the kit to a PC through the OpenSDA port on the FRDM-KL25Z. A terminal emulator (such as HyperTerminal)provides the interface, allowing users to login to the network and send and receive messages. Designers can also use the Kinetis Design Studio (KDS) to develop and download microcode to the KL43Z.

　　The OM2385/SF001 consists of a base board (the OL2385 shield board) with a permanently attached daughter board (the OL2385 reference design board). The combination—along with the attached FRDM-KL43Z board—serves as a development platform that provides wireless modem access to the SIGFOX network. Once properly registered, the board allows users to send and receive messages across the network.
