However, it is good design practice to add additional bulk capacitance as required for your application, i.e. those with heavy GPIO usage and/or current draw. Note 2: These pins are in close proximity to the nRF52 radio power supply and antenna pins. Radio performance parameters, such as sensitivity, may be affected by high frequency digital I/O (>10kHz) or with large sink/source current on these pins. Nordic recommends using only low frequency, low-drive functions on these pins when possible.

There are some restrictions called out by the nRF52810 product specification. See Note 2 in Table 6 above. Also note that certain peripherals are assigned to particular pins, such the analog inputs. 9.5 Module RESET GPIO pin P0.21 may be used for a hardware reset. In order to utilize P0.21 as a hardware reset, the UICR registers PSELRESET[0] and PSELRESET[1] must be set alike, to the value of 0x7FFFFF15. When P0.21 is programmed as RESET, the internal pull-up is automatically enabled. Rigado and Nordic . example applications and development kits program P0.21 as RESET 9.6 Debug & Programming The BMD-330 Series supports the two pin Serial Wire Debug (SWD) interface and offers flexible and powerful mechanism for non-intrusive debugging of program code. Breakpoints, single stepping, and instruction trace capture of code execution flow are part of this support. The BMD-330 also supports ETM and ITM trace. Trace data from the ETM and the ITM is sent to an external debugger via a 4-bit wide parallel trace port. In addition to parallel trace, the TPIU supports serial trace via the Serial Wire Output (SWO) trace protocol. 9.7 Clocks The BMD-330 requires two clocks, a high frequency clock and a low frequency clock. The high frequency clock is provided on-module by a high-accuracy 32MHz crystal as required by the nRF52810 for radio operation. The low frequency clock can be provided internally by an RC oscillator or synthesized from the fast clock, or externally by a 32.768kHz crystal. An external crystal provides the lowest power consumption and greatest accuracy. Using the internal RC oscillator with calibration provides acceptable performance for BLE applications at a reduced cost and slight increase in power consumption. Note: the ANT protocol requires the use of an external crystal. 9.7.1 32.768kHz Crystal (LFXO) Symbol Parameter Typ. Max.

Actual tolerance depends on the crystal used. Table 8 - 32.768kHz Clock Source Comparison 8 BMD-330 Data Sheet Version 2.1 10 Firmware Rigado recommends that projects for the BMD-330 utilize Nordic Semiconductor's SDK, DFU, and examples and the nRF52810 tools for any new development. This will allow access to the very latest Bluetooth support from Nordic and provide an ongoing path as new features are released. 10.1 Factory Image Due to the BMD-330's reduced memory capacity, no factory firmware image is provided on the module. This is indicated with a factory version code of "00" printed on the module label. Since there is no bootloader on the module, firmware must be loaded on the module with the SWD interface. 10.2 SoftDevices Nordic Semiconductor protocol stacks are known as SoftDevices. SoftDevices are pre-compiled, prelinked binary files. SoftDevices can be programmed in nRF52 series SoCs and are downloadable from the Nordic website. The BMD-330 with the nRF52810 SoC supports the S132 (BLE Central & Peripheral) and S112 (BLE Peripheral) SoftDevices. 10.2.1 S112 The S112 SoftDevice is a Bluetooth low energy peripheral protocol stack solution. It supports up to four peripheral connections with an additional broadcaster role running concurrently. The S112 SoftDevice integrates a Bluetooth low energy Controller and Host and provides a full and flexible API for building Bluetooth low energy nRF52 System on Chip (SoC) solutions. 9 BMD-330 Data Sheet Version 2.1 10.3 MAC Address Info The BMD-330 module comes preprogrammed with a unique MAC address from the factory. The MAC address is also printed on a 2D barcode on the top of the module. The 6-byte BLE Radio MAC address is stored in the nRF52810 UICR at NRF_UICR_BASE+0x80 LSB first. Please read the MAC Address Provisioning application note to avoid erasing/overwriting the MAC address during programming. Important: Modules with factory firmware `AA' and `AB' are provided with full memory protection enabled, not allowing the UICR to be read via the SWD interface. If performing a full-erase, the MAC can then only be recovered from the 2D barcode and humanreadable text. Note: Modules with factory firmware code `AC' and later no longer enable read-back protection from the factory, allowing the MAC address to be read with an SWD programmer. Figure 3 - BMD-330 MAC Address UICR Register: NRF_UICR + 0x80 (0x10001080): MAC_Addr [0] (0xZZ) NRF_UICR + 0x81 (0x10001081): MAC_Addr [1] (0xYY) NRF_UICR + 0x82 (0x10001082): MAC_Addr [2] (0xXX) NRF_UICR + 0x83 (0x10001083): MAC_Addr [3] (0x93) NRF_UICR + 0x84 (0x10001084): MAC_Addr [4] (0x54) NRF_UICR + 0x85 (0x10001085): MAC_Addr [5] (0x94) 10 BMD-330 Data Sheet Version 2.1 11 Mechanical Data 11.1 Dimensions Figure 4 - Mechanical Drawing 11.2 Recommended PCB Land Pads Figure 5 - Recommended PCB Land Pads Note: The RF Keep-out area extends vertically to the board edge. 11 BMD-330 Data Sheet Version 2.1 11.3 Module Marking Figure 6 - Module Marking 12 BMD-330 Data Sheet Version 2.1 12 RF Design Notes 12.1 Recommended RF Layout & Ground Plane For the BMD-330, the integrated antenna requires a suitable ground plane to radiate effectively. The area under and extending out from the antenna portion of the module should be kept clear of copper and other metal. The module should be placed at the edge of the PCB with the antenna edge facing out. Reducing the ground plane from that shown in Figure 7 will reduce the effective radiated power. For example, a 27mm x 29mm board (about the size of a coin cell) has approximately 3dB lower output than the BMD-330 Evaluation Board. These RF guidelines for the BMD-330 are the same as the BMD-300 module. Designs incorporating the BMD-300 will have similar RF performance with the BMD-330 module. Figure 7 - Recommended RF Layout & Ground Plane 12.2 Mechanical Enclosure Care should be taken when designing and placing the BMD-330 into an enclosure. Metal should be kept clear from the antenna area, both above and below. Any metal around the module can negatively impact RF performance. The module is designed and tuned for the antenna and RF components to be in free air. Any potting, epoxy fill, plastic over-molding, or conformal coating can negatively impact RF performance and must be evaluated by the customer. 13 BMD-330 Data Sheet Version 2.1 12.3 Antenna Patterns Antenna patterns are based on the BMD-300 Evaluation Kit with a ground plane size of 82mm x 56mm.

The evaluation boards also provide the option to be powered from a CR2032 coin cell battery and have current sense resistors and headers to allow for convenient current measurements. An Arduino Uno R3 style header is provided for easy prototyping of additional functions. The evaluation boards also support programming off-board BMD-300 Series modules. 14 Bluetooth Qualification * * * * * The Bluetooth SIG maintains the Bluetooth Specification, and ensures that products are properly tested and comply with the Bluetooth license agreements. Companies that list products with the Bluetooth SIG are required to be members of the SIG and submit the listed fees. Refer to this link for details: https://www.bluetooth.com/develop-withbluetooth/qualification-listing The Rigado Bluetooth Low Energy modules based on Nordic Semiconductor SoCs are listed as a "Tested Component". This allows an end product based on a Rigado module to inherit the component listings without the need to run through all of the tests again. The end product will often inherit several different listings, known as Qualified Design IDs (QDID), and are identified on a "Declaration of Compliance". Refer to this Help Center article for creating a Declaration of Compliance: https://rigado.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/360002645694Bluetooth-SIG-Launch-Studio-Product-Declaration The list of Qualified Products is found here: https://launchstudio.bluetooth.com/Listings/Search The BMD-330 primarily utilizes the S112 SoftDevice A list of current QDIDs used by Rigado is maintained at the Rigado Help Center 16 BMD-330 Data Sheet Version 2.1 15 Regulatory Agency Approvals 15.1 United States (FCC): Rigado's modules have received Federal Communications Commission (FCC) CFR47 Telecommunications, Part 15 Subpart C "Intentional Radiators" modular approval in accordance with Part 15.212 Modular Transmitter approval. Modular approval allows the end user to integrate the module into a finished product without obtaining subsequent and separate FCC approvals for intentional radiation, provided no changes or modifications are made to the module circuitry. Changes or modifications could void the user's authority to operate the equipment. The end user must comply with all of the instructions provided by the Grantee, which indicate installation and/or operating conditions necessary for compliance. The finished product is required to comply with all applicable FCC equipment authorizations regulations, requirements and equipment functions not associated with the transmitter module portion. For example, compliance must be demonstrated to regulations for other transmitter components within the host product; to requirements for unintentional radiators (Part 15 Subpart B "Unintentional Radiators"), such as digital devices, computer peripherals, radio receivers, etc.; and to additional authorization requirements for the non-transmitter functions on the transmitter module (i.e., Verification, or Declaration of Conformity) (e.g., transmitter modules may also contain digital logic functions) as appropriate. Caution! The OEM is still responsible for verifying end product compliance with FCC Part 15, subpart B limits for unintentional radiators through an accredited test facility. 15.1.1 Labeling & User Information Requirements The BMD-330 is assigned the FCC ID number: 2AA9B09 If the FCC ID is not visible when the module is installed inside another device, then the outside of the finished product into which the module is installed must also display a label referring to the enclosed module. This exterior label can use the following or similar wording: Contains FCC ID: 2AA9B09 In addition to marking the product with the appropriate FCC ID, the end product user manual may also require specific information based on the digital device classification. Refer to the FCC Rules, Title 47, Subchapter A, Part 15, Subpart B, Chapter 15.105 for specific wording of the notices. 15.1.2 RF Exposure All transmitters regulated by FCC must comply with RF exposure requirements. KDB 447498 General RF Exposure Guidance provides guidance in determining whether proposed or existing transmitting facilities, operations or devices comply with limits for human exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) fields adopted by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). This module is approved for installation into mobile and/or portable host platforms and must not be co-located or operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter except in accordance with FCC multi-transmitter guidelines. End users must be provided with transmitter operating conditions for satisfying RF Exposure compliance. 17 BMD-330 Data Sheet Version 2.1 15.2 Canada (IC) Rigado's modules have been certified for use in Canada under Industry Canada (IC) Radio Standards Specification (RSS) RSS-210 and RSSGen.

Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired operation of the device. Le present appareil est conforme aux CNR d'Industrie Canada applicables aux appareils radio exempts de licence. L'exploitation est autorisee aux deux conditions suivantes: (1) l'appareil ne doit pas produire de brouillage, et (2) l'utilisateur de l'appareil doit accepter tout brouillage radioelectrique subi, meme si le brouillage est susceptible d'en compromettre le fonctionnement. Transmitter Antenna (from Section 7.1.2 RSS-Gen, Issue 3, December 2010): User manuals for transmitters shall display the following notice in a conspicuous location: Under Industry Canada regulations, this radio transmitter may only operate using an antenna of a type and maximum (or lesser) gain approved for the transmitter by Industry Canada. To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type and its gain should be so chosen that the equivalent isotropically radiated power (e.i.r.p.) is not more than that necessary for successful communication. Conformement a la reglementation d'Industrie Canada, le present emetteur radio peut fonctionner avec une antenne d'un type et d'un gain maximal (ou inferieur) approuve pour l'emetteur par Industrie Canada. Dans le but de reduire les risques de brouillage radioelectrique a l'intention des autres utilisateurs, il faut choisir le type d'antenne et son gain de sorte que la puissance isotrope rayonnee equivalente (p.i.r.e.) ne depasse pas l'intensite necessaire a l'etablissement d'une communication satisfaisante. 18 BMD-330 Data Sheet Version 2.1 15.2.2 RF Exposure All transmitters regulated by IC must comply with RF exposure requirements listed in RSS-102 - Radio Frequency (RF) Exposure Compliance of Radiocommunication Apparatus (All Frequency Bands).
