Connectors 

The Demonstration Board is furnished with many connectors for easy access to all module 
signals. 
 
P5 bring out supply voltage, the DEBUG interface, a spare digital data I/O signal (Port 2) and 
the RESET line.  
 
P6 brings out digital and analogue I/O (Port 0). A 2.54 mm pitch pin-row can be mounted at 
P6 if convenient. 
 
P7 brings out digital I/O (Port 1) and the 32 kHz oscillator clock pins. A 2.54 mm pitch pin-row 
can be mounted at P7 if convenient. 
 
P8 is the DEBUG interface (pin compatible with the TI / Chipcon SmartRF04DB DEBUG 
connector).  
 
P9 is a connector for jumpers to connect/disconnect the on-board analogue sensors 
preventing them loading the pins when not used.  
 
P10 is a connector for jumper to connect VCC from the demonstration board back to the 
programmer/EB. 
 
For detailed signal description, please refer to the pinout shown in the data sheet. 
 

Push buttons 

The Demonstration Board is furnished with 6 push buttons connected to the following I/O 
signals: 
 

Demo Board 
marking 

RC2300 module pin 

S1 P0.1 
S2 P0.6 
S3 P1.2 
S4 P1.3 
S5 P2.0 
S7 

RESET. Pressing this button will 
activate the main RESET of the 
module 

 
 

LEDs 

The Demonstration Board is furnished with one green power indicator LED, two LEDs 
indicating UART activity as described above, and 2 LEDs connected to general I/O signals: 
 

Demo Board 
marking 

LED color and RC2300 module pin 

D3 Green: 

P1.0 

D6 Red: 

P1.1 

 

Accelerometer 

The accelerometer can be used measure movements in 2-axis, it can also be used for tilt 
measurement by measuring the earths gravitation. Accelerometer self test can be initiated by 
shorting test point T1 to ground. The accelerometer has a 20 ms start-up time after power on. 
See the Analog Devices ADXL321 datasheet for details about the accelerometer.
