DESCRIPTION
The RFEVAL1 is a hardware development platform designed to assist the engineer with a ‘Low Power Radio’
Application.
This evaluation kit provides easy to build telemetry and data communications applications which may utilise
various hardware and software encoders and decoders and also with a variety of radio modules.
This enables the engineer to select the optimum radio module and antenna type for a specific target
application.
Primarily as a hardware development platform, the development boards are a transmitter PCB and a receiver
PCB, both of which can accommodate either AM or FM modules. An RS232 serial port is included on each
board to allow the designer to connect the boards to PC's and thus create more advanced, data
communication systems
When completed the system may be used as a complete radio system.
Three projects are studied in detail;
1. Simple Radio Switched Relay using Keeloq HCS360 encoder & HCS512 Decoder. (A hardware
solution)
2. Remote telemetry switching using Keeloq HCS360 encoder & PIC16C73 Decoder (a software
solution)
3. Radio Data Communications; Transmitting a data byte between two PC's
The boards are supplied part populated with a pre-tuned PCB antenna ready for use. The user simply
populates the PCB’s to the specific schematic diagram as per the project required.

NOTES ON ANTENNA
The transmitter antenna has been incorporated as a PCB ‘tuned loop’. Designed to resonate at 433.92MHz
the loop has been designed to be the most efficient method for transmitting the signal from the smallest
possible size.
Note the SMT capacitors mounted on the PCB tune the loop to 433.92MHz.
If copying these loop antenna to other applications, The required capacitor values are;
For the AM module at 433MHz
C11 (Feed Cap) = 1pF
C12 (Cap in Loop) = 1.8pF
For the FM module at 433MHz
C1 (Feed Cap) = 10pF
C2 (Cap in Loop) = 1.5pF
C3 (Cap in Loop) = 1pF

The following type approved antennas may also be used with the transmitter and the receiver. Note that if an
alternative antenna is to be fitted then remember to remove the connection to the PCB track antenna by
removing the feed capacitor!
ANTENNA 1 – HELICAL COIL (PART NO PU-4BA-433, PU-BNC-433)
Wire coil, connected directly to RF in/out, open circuit at the other end. This antenna has a high Q Factor, for
trimming, the length may be adjusted. This is a popular antenna as it consumes little space. The helical detunes badly with proximity to other conductive objects.
ANTENNA 2 –TUNED LOOP (incorporated on PCB)
A PCB track tuned by the capacitor to ground at the ‘HOT’ end. Fed from ANT pin at a point 20% from the
ground end. Loops have a high immunity to proximity de-tuning. e.g. a human hand used to operate the
transmitter coming into relative close proximity to the loop.
Antenna 3 – Whip (PART NO FLEXI-4BA-433, FLEXI-BNC-433)
Can be either PCB track, wire rod or a combination of the two. One end connected to ANT pin, the other
open. Optimum total length is 17.3cm (¼ wave @ 433MHz). The optimum position is to locate the antenna so
that it protrudes directly upwards. Keep the open circuit (hot) end well away from metal components to
prevent serious de-tuning. Whips are ground plane sensitive and will benefit from internal ¼ wave earthed
radial(s) if the product is small and plastic cased.

Note: The range achieved from the system is dependent on the choice and position of the antenna. The
space around the antenna is as important as the antenna itself. Try to keep the antenna away from other
metal in the system such as transformers, batteries and PCB tracks, especially ground planes. In particular,
the ‘HOT’ end of the antenna should be kept as far away as possible from these.

PROJECT #1;
REMOTE SWITCHED RELAY USING KEELOQ HCS360 ENCODER & HCS512
DECODER. (A HARDWARE SOLUTION)
Encoder Schematic : Fig 66
Decoder Schematic : Fig 68
This project demonstrates the operation of the Microchip KeeLoq hardware encoder and decoder devices and
allows the remote operation of a relay over either an AM or an FM radio link. The data which is transmitted
over the radio link is PWM encoded and details of the precise format are given in the HCS360 data sheet
(available from Microchip Technology). The hardware for the project is built on the transmitter and receiver
evaluation boards and the parts lists are given in appendix B.
The transmitter unit consists of a simple KeeLoq circuit using the HCS360 (marked ‘38’) and the selected AM
or FM radio module. The PCB aerial track can be used or alternately a helical stub or 1/4 wave whip aerial
can be connected using a short length of 50Ω co-axial cable. The transmitter functions are all handled by the
HCS360 which outputs a PWM coded data stream and so designer should ensure that the HCS360 marked
‘38’ is used. The PWM output is directly compatible with the HCS512 decoder.
The receiver unit consists of an AM or an FM radio module, (selected to match the transmitter module) and the
HCS512 KeeLoq device and its associated components. In addition it will be necessary to connect an external
aerial and this can take the form of either a helical stub or 1/4 wave whip connected using a short length of coaxial cable.
Operation of the system is extremely simple: when the transmitter push (SW1-4) button is operated, the radio
module is powered up and while the button is held depressed a series of data frames is transmitted.
The receiver radio module is always powered up and it passes the received data to the HCS512 which
decodes the data and actuates the relay (RL1-4) when valid frames are being received.

PROJECT #2;
REMOTE TELEMETRY SWITCHING USING KEELOQ HCS360 ENCODER &
PIC16C73 DECODER (A SOFTWARE SOLUTION)
Encoder Schematic : Fig 66
Decoder Schematic : Fig 70
This project provides a remote telemetry function as in project #1. However the decoding is performed within a
standard PIC microcontroller instead of within a dedicated Keeloq decoder I/C. For this reason the Keeloq
encoder part HCS360 marked ‘39’ should be used.
For applications where a simple remote control feature is required as a low cost ‘bolt on feature’ this project is
most applicable. The decoding of the Keeloq data can be performed as one small task of the main
microcontroller that exists within the application. This reduces the hardware cost to a minimum, as a receiver
is the only additional hardware required.
The transmitter encoder is the same as Project #1. It is assumed that for production a commercially available
keyfob/transmitter encoder will be used. This will already have all the relevant EMC compliance for licence free
use.
For this project , the chosen microcontroller is the PIC16C73A, however many other microcontrollers may be
used. If another PIC is to be used then the assembler code may well be ported directly across.
The data which is transmitted over the radio link is Manchester encoded and details of the precise format are
given in the HCS360 data sheet (available from Microchip Technology). The receiver captures the information
and outputs the CMOS/TTL data to the PIC16C73A.
The PIC16C73A decodes the data and outputs the relevant signal to the relays so that when the user presses
switch ‘1 to 4’ the relays’ 1 to 4 will operate.
The transmitter functions are all handled by the HCS360 which outputs a MANCHESTER coded data stream
and so designer should ensure that the HCS360 marked ‘39’ is used. The MANCHESTER output provides a
better signal type for the radio link thus achieving a greater range than in PWM systems.
When completed the reader may note that the telemetry link may be further secured by using a unique
‘manufacturers Key’. What this means is that the transmitted signal is customised with a unique encrypted
number. This number is totally secure and cannot be read or interpreted by any third party. Only a decoder
with the same manufacturers key may decrypt this number. Further information is detailed in Appendix A.
The result is a remote control system where only the transmitter encoder with this special manufacturers key
may be learnt by the receiver decoder (with its own matching manufacturers key).
The part list is shown in Appendix B.

PROJECT #3;
TRANSMITTING A DATA BYTE BETWEEN TWO PC'S
Encoder Schematic : Fig 72
Decoder Schematic : Fig 74
This project looks briefly at the problems of passing serial data over a low power radio link and takes the
designer down the first steps in designing a simple ‘Radio Packet Controller’ (RPC) which could be extended
to include error detection and other more advanced features.
It is not possible to simply feed asynchronous data into a radio module and expect the data to emerge
'unscathed' from the receiver module. For this reason a ‘Radio Packet Controller’ (RPC) is available
specifically designed to enable asynchronous data transmission
The basic problem with transmitting serial asynchronous data between say a couple of PC's is that the data
content is not likely to be ‘balanced’ (100% ac content). This would cause the radio module receiver to
malfunction because of the receive data slice circuitry becoming biased by a cumulative string of '1' or '0' bits
which appear in the received data. It may in some instances be possible to encode the data in the transmitting
PC such that this problem is minimised, but in general this is not a valid option. Most applications will require
an interface between the RS232 port on the PC and the radio transmitter module, which codes the data to give
optimum performance from the radio link irrespective of the content of the data which is being transmitted.
This function is normally combined with the creation of a data packet structure where individual characters are
not transmitted, but instead a number is sent at a point in time in a composite frame. This also provides
receiver biasing and error detection.
The principle of the RPC which is described in this project is simple, the RS232 serial port on the transmitter is
used to receive characters from a PC. When eight characters have been received, they are formed into a
packet and transmitted as a frame. The frame has a header, and a sync byte, and the data characters are
coded in Manchester format. This is similar to the format utilised in the Microchip HCS360 encoder.
The receiving software decodes the frame and outputs the characters on an RS232 port. The system has
been designed to be a demonstration of the principles of an RPC and requires that the user enter characters in
blocks of 8 with a pause between each block. This is clearly a limitation on the user, which in practice might
not be acceptable. However by using the software for this project as a starting point, the software engineer
should be able to overcome this by implementing interrupt driven communications and more complex buffering
at both ends of the link.
The transmitter and receiver boards both use the PIC16C73A processor and these devices communicate with
the PC's using the PIC on board UART's and over RS232 data links which are supported by the on board level
shifter circuitry. The system will function with either AM or FM radio modules and is an excellent way of
carrying out module selection and also as a means of testing out different aerial systems.
The software for the transmitter runs in a PIC16C73A and consists of two main blocks which carry out the
following functions:
1. Transmitter reception of 8 data bytes and their transfer into a buffer from the host PC using the
PIC16C73’s on board UART.
2. Transmission of a frame of RF data consisting of a preamble, a synchronous element, the actual
data block itself in Manchester format and a guard period.
The software for the receiver runs in a PIC 16C73 and again consists of two main blocks which carry out the
following functions:
1. Reception of the frame and transfer of the data into a buffer.
2. Transmission of the 8 data bytes to the PC using the on board UART.

Appendix A: An Introduction to KEELOQ
The keeloq system is a patented code hopping technology used primarily in remote control applications.
The encryption and decryption devices are manufactured by Microchip Technology Inc. and provide an
ideal solution to remote control systems. The Keeloq algorithm is a highly secure digital data protocol
that uses a 67-bit transmission code. Each time a switch is pressed on a transmitter encoder the data
transmitted is different, even if the same switch is pressed twice. A corresponding receiver decoder will
also never respond to the same code twice. By using a large number of possible transmission
combinations means it would take over 5,000 Billion years for a person to scan through all the possible
combinations.
For a Keeloq encoder and decoder to work with each other they both must have the same Manufactures
Key. This is 64-bit number that is programmed into each device. Once both chips have the same
Manufactures Key then a encoder can be taught to a decoder. The decoder then stores in memory the
Serial Number of the encoder, this is a unique number that is programmed into each encoder. In this
system the receiver decoder automatically ‘hops’ in sync with the transmitter encoder. If a transmitter
encoder is pressed more than 50 times out of range of the receiver decoder then the system will be out
of sync. If this situation occurs then the user only needs to press the switch twice on the transmitter
encoder within the range of the receiver decoder for the system to resynchronise.
The keeloq system also has various built in functions. Auto Shut-off Timer is used if a switch on the
encoder inadvertently gets pressed for a long period of time. After 25 seconds the auto shut-off function
automatically stops the device from transmitting and so prevents the transmitter from draining the
battery. The keeloq encoder also transmits the voltage status of the battery. If the battery voltage
becomes low then the Keeloq encoder will transmit this information to the decoder. The decoder can
then indicate to the user that the transmitter battery needs replacing.
For more detailed information on Keeloq please refer to the Microchip Technology data sheets.
