Using the Integra Wireless CPU
®
6.1
Firmware Upgrade
The Integra firmware is stored in flash memory and can easily be upgraded.
The upgrade procedure is based on the X-modem protocol, but an emergency mode (backup procedure)
based on a Wavecom specific downloader is also available.
6.1.1
Nominal Upgrade Procedure
The firmware file can be downloaded to the Wireless CPU
®
using the X-modem protocol.
To enter this mode, the AT+WDWL command (see description in the AT command Interface Guide
documentation [7]) must be sent to the Wireless CPU
®
.
The serial signals required to proceed with X-modem downloading are:
Rx, Tx, RTS, CTS and GND.
6.1.2
Alternative Procedure
If nominal upgrade mode cannot be used (due to critical corruption on the flash memory), an alternative
procedure is available. This procedure requires Wavecom specific software to download the firmware file to
the Wireless CPU
®
.
This tool must be run on a PC connected to the Wireless CPU
®
serial bus. As this procedure is highly specific
and required Wavecom tools, the process must be executed by your distributor.
The signals required to proceed with downloading are: Rx, Tx, RTS, CTS and GND.
Prior to running the Wavecom downloader, set the Wireless CPU
®
to download mode: the BOOT signal must
be set to low while powering ON (or resetting) the Wireless CPU
®
.
The application must support serial speed changes of up to 115,200 bps and hardware flow control
(RTS/CTS connected).

Guidelines for Application Design
6.2.1
Hardware Recommendations
When designing the application board, specific attention must be paid to the following points:
•
Having a common ground plane for analog, digital and RF grounds
•
Length of the SIM interface lines: 10 cm maximum
•
Bias of the Microphone inputs properly adjusted when using audio connectors (micr speaker)
1
•
EMC protection on audio input/output (filters against 900 MHz)
•
ESD protection on the serial link
•
Avoid placing application processor or local oscillator circuits near the Wireless CPU
®
or the antenna
cable, in order to avoid any spurious emissions from the application
•
Avoid placing the audio interface near the application antenna to reduce the risks of TDMA noise on
the audio
