DNT2400 - 08/18/09
3.2 Module Interface
Electrical connections to the DNT2400C are made through the I/O pads and through the I/O pins on the
DNT2400P. The hardware I/O functions are detailed in the table below:
Pad
Name
I/O
Description
1 PKT_DET O
Packet detect output. Signal switches logic high at the end of the start-of-packet symbol and
switches logic low at the end of the end-of-packet symbol on both received and transmitted packets.
PKT_DET provides a timing reference for use in network timing evaluations, etc.
2
RSVD
-
Reserved pad. Leave unconnected.
3 ADC_REF I
ADC supply and external full scale reference voltage input. Voltage range is 2.4 to 3.3 Vdc. Connect
pad 34 to this input to reference the ADC full scale reading to the module’s 3.3 V regulated supply.
4
RSVD
-
Reserved pad. Leave unconnected.
5 GPIO0
I/O
Configurable digital I/O port 0. When configured as an input, an internal pull-up resistor can be
selected and interrupt from sleep can be invoked. When configured as an output, the power-on state
is also configurable.
6
GPIO1
I/O
Configurable digital I/O port 1. Same configuration options as GPIO0.
7
GPIO2
I/O
Configurable digital I/O port 2. Same configuration options as GPIO0.
8
GPIO3
I/O
Configurable digital I/O port 3. Same configuration options as GPIO0.
9
PWM0
O
8-bit pulse-width modulated output 0 with internal low-pass filter. Filter is 1
st
order, 159 Hz 3 dB BW.
10
PWM1
O
8-bit pulse-width modulated output 1 with internal low-pass filter. Filter is 1
st
order, 159 Hz 3 dB BW.
11 SLEEP/DTR I
Default functionality is active high module sleep input (active low DTR). When switched low after
sleep, the module executes a power-on reset. Usually connected to host DTR.
12
ADC2
I
10-bit ADC input 0. Full scale reading is referenced to the ADC_REF input.
13
ADC1
I
10-bit ADC input 1. Full scale reading is referenced to the ADC_REF input.
14
ADC0
I
10-bit ADC input 2. Full scale reading is referenced to the ADC_REF input.
15 EX_SYNC I
Rising-edge triggered input for synchronizing co-located bases. Synchronization pulse interval must
equal the hop dwell time ±10 µs. Pulse width must be in the range of 50 µs to 2 ms.
16
DIAG_TX
O
Diagnostic UART transmitter output.
17
DIAG_RX
I
Diagnostic UART receiver input.
18 /CFG I
Protocol selection input. Leave unconnected when using software commands to select transpar-
ent/protocol mode (default is transparent mode). Logic low selects protocol mode, logic high selects
transparent mode.
19
VCC
I
Power supply input, +3.3 to +5.5 Vdc.
20
GND
-
Power supply and signal ground. Connect to the host circuit board ground.
21
GND
-
Power supply and signal ground. Connect to the host circuit board ground.
22 GPIO4 I/O
Configurable digital I/O port 4. When configured as an input, an internal pull-up resistor can be
selected. When configured as an output, the power-on state is configurable.
23
GPIO5
I/O
Configurable digital I/O port 5. Same configuration options as GPIO4.
24 GND -
Logic
ground.
25
ACT
O
Data activity output, logic high when data is being transmitted or received.
26 /DCD O
Default functionality is data carrier detect output, which provides a logic low on a remote when the
module is locked to FHSS hopping pattern and logic low on a base when at least one remote is
connected to it.
