Anaren Atmosphere Wiki
The best place to start learning about how to use the MSDB with your mobile device is to visit
the Anaren Atmosphere Wiki (https://atmosphere.anaren.com/wiki). However, the following
sections also provide step by step instructions to guide you through the process.
2.2.

Getting the Demo App
Apple iOS Devices
Go to the Apple App Store and search for "Anaren Atmosphere". Download and install it
on your device.

Android Devices
Go to the Google Play Store and search for "Anaren Atmosphere". Download and install
it on your device.
2.3.
Using the Demo App
2.3.1.
Hardware Setup
The MSDB comes preloaded with the Demo Application firmware and all switches are in the
correct state. All that is needed is power. Using the provided USB micro-B cable, connect the
MSDB to a PC/laptop (or USB battery).
2.3.2.
Establishing a Wireless Connection
1) On your mobile device, run the Atmosphere App that was installed earlier.
2) Click the Demo button on the Atmosphere App (no need to login).
3) You should now see the compass and other controls & monitors the demo provides.
4) Click on the Gear Icon in the lower right corner. This will put you in the "Scanning
Window".
5) Click on the scan button at the bottom. You should now see the board show up as
ATDemo.
6) Click on the AT Demo board. It will become highlighted in blue.
7) Click on the connect button at the bottom. The App should connect, discover, and then
go back to the original demo screen.
Your mobile device is now connected to the MSDB. It is actively monitoring the board status
and controlling some of its operation.

Controlling/Monitoring the MSDB
Now that your mobile device is connected to the MSDB board, you can observe and do several
things. In the demo application, the mobile device polls the MSDB for its status on a regular
interval. So the monitored readings should respond fairly quickly (but not instantaneously). Try
the following:
1) The board's IR Temperature Sensor should be reporting its temperature readings. Try
holding your hand over the board and you should see the temperature go up. Remove
your hand and it should go down. Note that you do not have to touch the temperature
sensor.
2) The Accelerometer should be reporting the tilt of the board by moving the blue bubble in
the gray box. Try tilting to the board in different directions. The bubble should move
around inside the gray box in the same direction the board is being tilted.
3) The Compass should be showing your magnetic heading. Note that this is very
sensitive, and as such does not always read correctly when in the presence of magnetic
materials or strong magnetic fields. Be sure to hold the board horizontal to get the best
compass reading.
4) The Joystick image should reflect the position of the joystick. Try moving the joystick
and hold it in a new position and observe the image. Pressing the joystick in the center
position (into the board) will play a tone on the buzzer.
5) The Red, Green and Blue sliders control the color and brightness of the RGB LED on
the MSDB. Try moving them and observing the LED.
6) If you connected a terminal emulator to the USB COM port, then you should see some
status information on the terminal screen flowing as well. This shows the PUART port
operating properly. The meaning of the data is not important. The flow is what you're
looking for. Ensure the PUART switch (S2) is set to the USB position (default).
That's it. You have now verified that you can communicate with, control, and monitor the MSDB
components using the Atmosphere Demo App. Please visit the Anaren Atmosphere Wiki
(https://atmosphere.anaren.com/wiki) to find out how to develop your own custom embedded
and mobile Apps.

The module provides all the required power supply filtering and decoupling, as well as an
integrated PCB trace antenna and RF matching network. Interfaces for connecting external
components include analog (10-bit ADC), GPIO, PWM, I2C, SPI, and UART.
3.2.2.

Sensors
Accelerometer (U4)
The ST Microelectronics LIS3DHTR 3-Axis Accelerometer (SPI) is used to sense
acceleration in all directions (including gravity). This device has an embedded
microcontroller that has motion-recognition capabilities such as free-fall detection and
click/double click recognition. It also offers 3 auxiliary ADC channels. Please refer to
the LIS3DHTR datasheet on the ST website for further info regarding this device.

Digital Compass (U2)
The Honeywell HMC5883L 3-Axis Digital Compass (I2C) is used for low-field magnetic
sensing in applications such as compassing and magnetometry. It can measure both
the direction and the magnitude of Earth’s magnetic fields. Please refer to the
HMC5883L datasheet on the Honeywell website for further info regarding this device.
The I2C bus address of this device is 0x1E.

IR Temperature Sensor (U3)
The Texas Instruments TMP006B Infrared Thermopile Sensor (I2C) measures the
temperature of an object without the need to make contact with the object (-40C to
+125C range). Please refer to the TMP006 datasheet on the TI website for further info
regarding this device.
The I2C bus address of this device is 0x40.

Current Sense Amplifier (U7)
The Texas Instruments INA216A2 Current Shunt Monitor (analog) amplifies the voltage
across a current sense resistor with a gain of 50. Please refer to the INA216 datasheet
on the TI website for further info regarding this device.
The sensor’s analog output is routed to J1-16 where it can be sampled using an
oscilloscope to see changes in load current in real-time. A filtered version of this signal
is routed to the accelerometer’s ADC2 input such that average current can be read by
the A20737. To calculate current flowing through the 0.2Ω sense resistor, simply divide
the measured voltage by 10 (Ishunt = Vshunt / Rshunt, where Rshunt = 0.2Ω and
Vshunt = Vmeas / 50).
Please note that with a 0.2Ω sense resistor, this amplifier is not intended to accurately
measure sleep current. It is better suited for the higher Tx and Rx currents.

USB/Battery Power Switch (S5)
This switch selects the MSDB power source. In most development circumstances the
board will be powered by the USB cable, but it may be powered by the CR2032 coin cell
battery located on the back of the board instead. The board may also be powered by
applying a supply voltage to the VDD pin on J1-14.
o
o
USB: Select this position when board is powered from +5V (USB or J3)
Battery: Select this position when board is powered from the battery or VDD
Caution: Remove the coin cell battery when applying a voltage to VDD. Failure to
do so may cause the battery to explode, which may result in damage to the MSDB
and/or personal injury.

HCI UART Switch (S6)
This switch controls the connection of the HCI UART signals between the USB to Dual
UART Bridge and the A20737 module. This is accomplished by controlling one of the
supply voltages and the output enable of a dual supply bidirectional level shifter device.
When the switch is set to ‘USB’ the level shifter is powered and its output is enabled,
making the connection between the UART Bridge and the A20737 module. With the
switch set to ‘EXT’ one side of the level shifter is powered down and the output is
disabled, breaking the HCI UART connection by placing the signals in a high impedance
state (not physically disconnected).
o
o

USB: Select this position for programming the A20737 module.
EXT: Select this position to run the loaded application following power-up or
reset.
Peripheral UART Switch (S2)
This switch controls the connection of the peripheral UART signals between the USB to
Dual UART Bridge and the A20737 module. This is accomplished by controlling one of
the supply voltages and the output enable of a dual supply bidirectional level shifter
device. When the switch is set to ‘USB’ the level shifter is powered and its output is
enabled, making the connection between the UART Bridge and the A20737 module.
With the switch set to ‘EXT’ one side of the level shifter is powered down and the output
is disabled, breaking the PUART connection by placing the signals in a high impedance
state (not physically disconnected). This allows an external device to be connected to
the PUART signals on the J2 connector (pins 13 & 14 without flow control, pins 11 thru
14 with flow control).
o
o
USB: Select this position to use the USB to Dual UART Bridge for PUART
communication.
EXT: Select this position to use an external device for PUART communication.
Please note that an external device should not be connected to J2 while this switch is
set to ‘USB’. Doing so may damage the MSDB and/or the external device.

3.2.4.

Indicators
RGB LED (D1)
The RGB LED can display red, green, blue, or just about any mixture of the three colors.
Each LED segment is driven by a FET and controlled by GPIO or PWM (PWM is
required to achieve color mixing beyond the 7 color combinations possible using GPIO).
The LED controls are active-high (i.e. a logic ‘1’ turns ON the LED, while a ‘0’ turns it
OFF). The LED segments are connected to the following ports on the A20737 module:
o
o
o

Red: P26 (PWM0)
Green: P27 (PWM1)
Blue: P13 (PWM3)
HCI UART LEDs (D2, D4)
These LEDs indicate activity on the HCI UART port. They are controlled directly by the
USB to Dual UART Bridge. The red LED (D2) will flash each time a character is
transmitted from the UART Bridge to the A20737 module, while the green LED (D4) will
flash each time a character is received from the A20737 module.

Peripheral UART LEDs (D3, D5)
These LEDs indicate activity on the Peripheral UART port. They are controlled directly
by the USB to Dual UART Bridge. The red LED (D5) will flash each time a character is
transmitted from the UART Bridge to the A20737 module, while the green LED (D3) will
flash each time a character is received from the A20737 module.

USB Power LED (D6)
The USB power LED indicates the presence of +5V, whether supplied via the USB
connector or J3, and is powered from the onboard 3.3V LDO. Please note that if the
USB/Battery Power Switch (S5) is set to ‘Battery’ and +5V is applied to the board, the
LED will be ON but the A20737 module and sensors will not be powered.

Buzzer (LS1)
The piezoelectric buzzer is specified for 1kHz to 6kHz operation (4kHz nominal) and
should be driven with a 50% duty cycle square wave. The drive signal is connected to
port P14 (PWM2) of the A20737 module.

GPIO Expander (U6)
The Exar XRA1201P GPIO Expander (I2C) is a 16-bit device which adds additional I/O
for use by a microcontroller with limited pin count. On the MSDB, the primary role of the
GPIO expander is to funnel all interrupts from the various devices on the board into a
single pin on the A20737 module. Please refer to the XRA1201 datasheet on the Exar
website for further info regarding this device.
The I2C bus address of this device is 0x21.
3.2.6.
USB to Dual UART Bridge (U10)
The FTDI FT2232H is a USB 2.0 high speed (480mb/s) to dual multipurpose
UART/FIFO. Port A connects to the HCI interface on the A20737 and is used for
programming the module’s onboard EEPROM with the application firmware. Port B
connects to the peripheral UART on the A20737 and may be used to send data between
the application firmware and a PC/laptop. Please refer to the FT2232H datasheet on the
FTDI website for further info regarding this device.
3.2.7.

Voltage Regulators
3.3V LDO (U14)
The Texas Instruments TPS73433 is a 3.3V 250mA low-dropout linear regulator with low
quiescent current, ultra-low noise, and high PSRR. This regulator is powered by +5V
which is supplied to the MSDB either from the USB connector or via J3. It supplies
power to the USB to Dual UART Bridge circuitry, as well as to the rest of the board when
the USB/Battery Power Switch is set to ‘USB’.

2.1V DC-DC Converter (U9)
The Texas Instruments TPS62730 is a 100mA step down converter with bypass mode
and is intended for ultra-low power wireless applications. In bypass mode, the converter
stops switching and passes its input supply to the output. While switching is enabled,
the converter outputs a regulated 2.1 volts.
To conserve power the converter is typically turned ON (switching enabled) during high
current operation, for example during radio transmit or receive operations. While the
load is placed in a low-power sleep state, the converter switching is stopped by placing
the device in bypass mode such that the quiescent current is minimized (30nA typ).
By default the converter is in bypass mode and may be controlled by the firmware (port
P0) to enable switching.

Jumpers
Current Monitoring (JP1)
This jumper allows the board current to be measured with an external ammeter/multimeter connected to J1-14 and J1-15. It is a surface mount resistor footprint (0603) with
a trace connecting the two terminals. For current measurements using an external
meter, the trace must be cut. To return the board back to a functional state without the
meter, a zero Ohm resistor should be soldered across the JP1 terminals. Optionally, a
jumper wire may be soldered across J1 pins 14 & 15.

Voltage/Photodiode Select (R5)
This jumper selects whether port P15 on the A20737 module is connected to the
onboard voltage divider or photodiode. It is a 3-terminal footprint which accepts a 0603
resistor in one of two positions. By default, the voltage divider is connected to P15. To
use the onboard photodiode, the zero Ohm resistor installed in position 2-C should be
moved to position 1-C.

LED/Crystal Select (R77, R78)
These jumpers select whether ports P11/27 and P12/26 on the A20737 module are
connected to the onboard 32kHz crystal or RGB LED. Each is a 3-terminal footprint
which accepts a 0603 resistor in one of two positions. By default, the RGB LED is
connected to the A20737. To use the onboard crystal, the zero Ohm resistors installed
in position 1-C should be moved to position 2-C.
3.2.9.

Connectors
Coin Cell Battery Holder (BT1)
The battery holder is located on the back side of the board and accepts a standard
CR2032 lithium coin cell. When installing a battery, be sure the positive (+) side is
facing outward. Inserting the battery upside down creates a short circuit between the
battery holder (+) and (-) terminals, however this will not damage the MSDB or the
battery provided there are no other voltage sources connected to VDD.

Micro USB Connector (J4)
This USB 2.0 compliant micro-B connector provides a USB connection to the MSDB. In
addition to providing power to the board, the USB signals directly interface with a Dual
UART Bridge used for programming the A20737 module as well as for communication
with the peripheral UART port on the A20737.
