Description
This user guide describes an evaluation kit for industrial RF applications
having the following components:
•
A base station using an
–
Xplained PRO SAMD20 evaluation kit
–

–
Xplained PRO ATA8510/15 extension board
•
Remote temperature sensor with Atmel
®
ATA8510 running a Flash
application
The Atmel ATA8515 is used as an RF transceiver in the base station and
runs in polling mode to detect data telegrams and displays the received
message on the OLED. The received message is also streamed to a PC
terminal program using a virtual COM port connection.
The remote sensor includes an AT30TS75A temperature sensor device and
a CMM-1923 real-time-clock device for waking up the Atmel ATA8515 RF
transceiver. The Flash application reads the temperature data from the
sensor device using a TWI bus protocol implemented in software and
broadcasts the temperature data via the RF link.
The RF application uses a 2-way communication, i.e., the transmitted RF
telegrams are acknowledged from the receiver.
