Integrated Z-Wave RF Module
The ZM3102 Z-Wave Module is a fully integrated RF communication module that uses the unlicensed Short-RangeDevice (SRD) frequency band of 868.0-868.6MHz in Europe and 902MHz-928MHz in US. The ZM3102 is dedicated for wireless control and monitoring of residential products like lighting and appliance control, energy management, access control, security and building automation. Together with the patented Z-Wave Protocol the ZM3102 Z-Wave Module delivers a complete highly reliable RF communication solution. The Z-Wave Protocol uses Frame Acknowledgement, Retransmission, Collision Avoidance, Frame Checksum Check and sophisticated Routing to assure reliable full home coverage.

The ZM3102 Z-Wave Module contains a system crystal, why no external crystal is needed. In order to get a high reliable and high performance RF communication, the RF Front-end has an optimized and throughout tested matching circuitry, a narrow band SAW filter dedicated for Z-Wave communication and there are filtering of the RF circuitry supply voltage. The ZM3102 Z-Wave Module is connector-less using Castellation Notches for easy mounting of the module to an OEM Application PCB. The ZM3102 Z-Wave Module has a mounting option for a top shield that improves noise immunity of the module and enables the module to be mounted by a standard pick-and-place machine on the production line. The Z-Wave Protocol is designed to enable automatic network address assignment at installation, and simple inclusion/exclusion of nodes. These protocol-handling techniques ensure easy installation, expansion, and management of the Z-Wave control network. Furthermore each Z-Wave network has its own unique Network Identifier preventing control problems or interference from neighboring networks. The Z-Wave Protocol has a well-defined Application-Programming-Interface (API) enabling easy and fast Application SW development.

1.3.2

Antenna Matching

The ZM3102 Z-Wave Module is using an antenna placed on the Application Module, the matching of the external antenna to 50 ohm (SAW filter impedance) must be made on the Application Module. As the ZM3102 Z-Wave Module is integrated into various products, different types of antennas can be implemented to get the best RF performance, i.e. range and reliability. In [4], a good overview of the different antennas is given as well as their pros and cons. In the case the antenna is not 50ohm a matching network must be implemented between the ZM3102 Z-Wave Module and the antenna. The matching network can for example be a pi or a T structure as shown in Figure 4.

Z-Wave Module Programming

The ZM3102 Z-Wave Module is programmed using the SPI interface and the RESET_N signal. The programming procedure of the ZW0301 flash is identical to the programming procedure of ZW0201. For detailed programming instructions see [2] and recommended programming tool(s) see [3].

The integrated Reset pull up is not for external circuitry. If external circuits are connected to the reset pin an external pull up resistor should be implemented. The transceiver is in transmit mode with the MCU running. The ADC is off. The transceiver is in receive mode with the MCU running. The ADC is off. The ADC, transceiver, MCU and flash are shut down. The chip can be woken by brownout, an external reset pulse, external interrupt (if enabled) or periodical wakeup by WUT (if enabled). POR cannot be disabled.

Application PCB Layout Recommendation Supply Voltage

As the ZM3102 Z-Wave Module contains a RF transceiver good supply voltage decoupling is important. Two decoupling capacitors should be placed at the VCC pin (EP11), a 1.0uF and a 100nF capacitor is recommended. The two capacitors should be placed as close to EP11 as possible and the capacitors should be placed between the ZM3102 Z-Wave Module supply line and the via that goes to the power plane as shown in Figure 7.

2.9.2

Ground Plane

In order to minimize any noise coupling from noisy signals (typically power products) it is recommended to insert as much ground cobber below the ZM3102 Z-Wave Module as possible on the Application PCB. 2.9.3 Antenna Interconnection

As the RF signal (EP18) is 50ohm the trace from the EP18 to the matching circuitry (see 1.3.2) must be 50ohm. The Application PCB designer must therefore take the PCB layer structure and thickness into account when designing the 50ohm trace (either Microstrip or Stripline).

3 SOFTWARE
3.1 SPI Interface

The signals P1.2/MISO, P1.4/SCK and P1.3/MOSI signals are in some SW APIs used by the protocol to store Routing Tables and HomeID in an external EEPROM. When these SW APIs are used, the Application SW must not use these three signals. Table 9 shows the available SW APIs and in which the SPI interface is used by the protocol. SW API Slave Routing Slave Enhanced Slave Controller Static Controller Installer Bridge SPI interface used by Protocol No No Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes

Table 9 SW API / SPI availability

3.2

EEPROM

Some SW APIs require an external EEPROM to be implemented on the Application PCB for protocol information storage (like routing table, HomeID etc.). The SPI interface is used to access the EEPROM and the P1.5 signal (EP5) is used by the Z-Wave Protocol as EEPROM Chip Select. To assure proper control of the EEPROM chip select signal during reset and power-up a pull up resistor on the P1.5 should be implemented as shown in Figure 8.

Figure 8 External EEPROM

Only a part of the EEPROM is used for protocol data storage, the Application SW can use the remaining memory area using an API call (see [3]). For the EEPROM memory area requirements of the protocol API please refer to the documentation for the Z-Wave Controller code selected (see [3]).
