Si4012 Functional Block Diagram The Si4012 is a fully-integrated, crystal-less, sub-GHz CMOS RF transmitter offering industry-leading RF performance, high integration, flexibility, low BOM, small board area, and ease of design. The device is designed to operate with any host MCU via a serial interface while optimized for battery-powered applications. The Si4012 operates from voltages ranging from 1.8 to 3.6 V and offers an ultra-low standby current consumption of less than 10 nA. The embedded power amplifier can be programmed to supply from –13 dBm up to +10 dBm, while the patented automatic antenna tuning circuit ensures that the resonant frequency and impedance matching between the PA output and the connected antenna are configured for optimum transmit efficiency and low harmonic content. Users may configure the device for either FSK or OOK modulation with supported symbol rates of up to 100 kbps. To ensure the lowest system cost, the Si4012 can be used without an external crystal or frequency reference by leveraging Silicon Labs' patented and proven crystal-less oscillator technology. This technology offers better than ±150 ppm carrier frequency stability over the temperature range of 0 to +70 °C and ±250 ppm carrier frequency stability over the industrial temperature range of –40 to + 85 °C. No production alignments are necessary since all RF functions are integrated into the device. Preliminary Rev. 0.1 9 Si4012 4. Host MCU Interface 4.1. SMBus Interface The SMBus interface is implemented as a bidirectional 2-wire interface (SCL, SDA) with the host configured as master and the Si4012 configured as slave. Both standard (100 kbps) and fast (400 kbps) modes are supported with 7-bit addressing. The default device address is 1110000x, where x is the R/W bit. 4.1.1. Design Recommendation In designs with multiple SMBus devices, it is recommended to use separate SMBus buses where possible since all attached SMBus devices will wake on bus traffic to confirm address. This process can lead to better battery life compared to systems with single-bus designs. 4.2. SMBus Flow Control The SCL and SDA pins are configured as open drain requiring external pull-up resistors. Flow control is implemented using the open drain configuration as shown below. Figure 2. WRITE Operation from Master to Slave The data (SDA) pin never changes when SCL = 1 during bit data transfers. If it changes, it indicates a START or STOP condition generated by the master/host. After the START condition, a 7-bit address is sent to the Si4012/slave by the host/master, followed by a single bit determining what is going to drive SDA (i.e., a write or read operation). For a WRITE operation, the master drives the following SDA bits, and the slave sends ACK/NAK bits. For a READ operation, the slave drives the data bits, and the master responds with ACK/NACK. Figure 2 shows a write operation from MASTER to SLAVE. Shortly after the R/W bit is received, the SLAVE device holds the SCL line low (blue line), thus stalling the master. The master will detect when SCL is released by the slave and will clock in the ACK/NACK bit from the slave (ACK shown above). By this, the slave (Si4012) can service each incoming byte and manage flow control to the host. 4.3. Host Interrupts An nIRQ line from the Si4012 to the host is used to issue interrupts to the host. The host can then read the interrupt status and clear interrupts from the Si4012 via the SMBus interface. 10 Preliminary Rev. 0.1 Si4012 4.4.

SMBus or SDN (NOTE 4) No CHANGE_STATE NOTE1, 3 TX_START SENSOR 3 TUNE without XO 4 NOTE1 NOTE1 Figure 3. State Machine Diagram Transition Notes 1. Transition to any state (including SHUTDOWN) using the CHANGE_STATE command. Alternatively, transition to SHUTDOWN using the SDN pin. 2. If a CHANGE_STATE command to the XO TUNE state is issued (even if already in the XO TUNE state), then an XO TUNE operation is carried out immediately. This enables close control of timing (fastest execution) for a subsequent TX_START command. In the TUNE state, a tune operation is carried out in the interval specified in TUNE_INTERVAL. 3. Transition to end state specified in the TX_START command or TX_STOP command. 4. If coming out of the SHUTDOWN via SMBus, an SMBus “wake-up” byte is required. This byte is discarded, and normal SMBus communication can proceed after the power on reset (ipor) is asserted to the host. State Descriptions The Si4012 has six power modes, which are summarized below. Further details on the IC configuration in these modes can be found in "5.1.5. COMMAND: CHANGE_STATE" on page 22. SHUTDOWN—Lowest current consumption; the majority of hardware blocks are powered down. STANDBY—Low power state with fast SMBus response. SENSOR—Same as STANDBY, but the battery is measured periodically. TUNE—Periodic tuning state. A tune is performed on any CHANGE_STATE to TUNE command and then periodically based on the interval defined in TUNE_INTERVAL. This provides faster transition to TX. If XO is enabled, XO will be used during tune operation. TX—Transmission state. Preliminary Rev. 0.1 11 Si4012 Table 8.

Command Structure The Si4012 has been designed to complete commands in the shortest time possible and to support both polled or event driven (interrupt based) modes. For longer operations, commands are implemented as launch commands. When the result of the launched command is completed, status is returned to the host via host polling or as an interrupt (if enabled). The status is obtained over the SMBus. For example, when a TX_START command is launched, the Si4012 will parse the command, check it for errors, and return the status to the host immediately; it will also start the TX process. The host can then either poll for an error or “packet sent” or receive an interrupt on nIRQ. All host commands consist of a 1-byte opcode followed by 0 or more arguments. All responses from the Si4012 consist of a 1-byte top level status followed by 0 or more data values. Command Structure: Bit 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 5 4 3 2 1 0 CMD ARG1 ARG2 … ARGn Response Structure: Bit STATUS 7 6 CTS Err[6:0] DATA1 DATA2 … DATAn A CTS (Clear to Send) indicates that the Si4012 has received the command and that the host can send another command. The CTS does not necessarily mean the command has been processed. The host should poll interrupt status or use interrupts (nIRQ) to get execution status for deferred operations. Err[6:0] indicates an error has occurred if it is non-zero. See the “error codes” section for a full list of available error codes.

If ffautotxthr=0, transmission will start immediately. 0:Auto-Transmit Disabled. Transmit will start immediately until the data specified in the PacketSize is transmitted, or all the data in the FIFO is exhausted, whichever occurs first. If the FIFO becomes empty before the specified packet length is transmitted a FIFO underflow error will occur. State[1:0]—State to transition to when transmission is completed. 00: IDLE—Go to idle state when the packet transmission completes based on the idle mode. 01: SHUTDOWN—Go to shutdown state when the packet transmission completes. 10–11: Reserved. IdleMode[2:0] if State is Idle; DTmod[1:0] if State is TX.

It also allows the packet size to be greater than the data available in the FIFO. If the packet size is less than the data stored in the FIFO, the data specified in packet size will be transmitted in one transmission leaving leftover data in the FIFO. The size to be transmitted will be specified in the DATA field. If the packet size is larger than the data stored in the FIFO size, when TX_START is received, all the data in the FIFO will be transmitted. The size of the data currently available in the FIFO will be specified in the DATA field. If auto transmit is enabled, the Si4012 will automatically transmit data when the TX FIFO level reaches the auto transmit level dictated by ffautotxthr without another explicit TX_START until the data specified in PacketSize is all transmitted. An interrupt is triggered with pksent set in the interrupt status. AutoTX state will be cleared when packet is successfully transmitted or FIFO underflow has happened. If auto transmit is not enabled, the Si4012 will start transmitting what’s available in the FIFO until FIFO becomes empty. The host is responsible for keeping FIFO from underflow by supplying the balance of the data needed for the packet size. If the packet size equals to the data stored in the FIFO size, all the data in the FIFO will be transmitted, ActualDataSize will be equal to the packet size. The host should poll ipksent using GET_INT_STATUS to check when the packet has been sent, or monitor the pksent interrupt. 26 Preliminary Rev. 0.1 Si4012 5.1.8.

Therefore, the host must note any interrupt bits that are set and take the necessary actions to service these interrupts. TX FIFO Almost Full and TX FIFO Almost Empty Interrupts These interrupts are triggered upon transition at the respective thresholds. Therefore, if an interrupt is generated for FIFO Almost Empty and then cleared by a call to GET_INT_STATUS, another interrupt will NOT be generated if the FIFO remains below the Almost Empty threshold. The FIFO must go above the threshold and then fall back to the threshold before another Almost Empty threshold is generated and sent to the host. Low Battery Detect (LBD) Interrupt The LBD is cleared when the host calls GET_INT_STATUS. The Si4012 regenerates lbd interrupts periodically when the LBD timer expires. 28 Preliminary Rev. 0.1 Si4012 5.1.10.

The Si4012 raises the ‘FIFO Almost Full’ or ‘FIFO Almost Empty’ interrupt when appropriate. If auto transmit is enabled and the FIFO level is above the auto transmit threshold, the Si4012 will start transmit automatically. Preliminary Rev. 0.1 29 Si4012 5.1.12. COMMAND: TX_STOP Purpose: Stop transmission and go to designated state (this command can also be used to abort existing transmissions) ARG: State[1:0]—State to transition to when transmission is stopped. 00 IDLE – Go to idle state when the packet transmission is stopped based on the idle mode. 01 SHUTDOWN – Go to shutdown state when the packet transmission is stopped. 10-11 – Reserved.

If ffautotxthr is set to 0, the Si4012 transmits whenever data becomes available in the FIFO. This field is ignored when auto transmit is disabled. Preliminary Rev. 0.1 35 Si4012 5.2.7. PROPERTY: BITRATE_CONFIG Purpose: Property: Fields: Data rate and ramp rate if OOK. 0x31 DataRate[9:0]—Data rate in units of 100 bps, ranging from 1 to 1000 for FSK and 1 to 500 for OOK. Default 0x60. RampRate[3:0]—Ramp rate in µs. 1, 2, 4, or 8 is supported. Default 2.

If SET_PROPERTY\MODULATION_CONFIG is sent and modulation is set to OOK by the host, but DataRate is set to > 500, Err will be set in the response. The default modulation type is FSK. If SET_PROPERTY \MODULATION_FSKDEV is not sent, any value above 1000 will result in Err being set in the response—0x0D (Data Rate out of Range). RampRate is ignored if ModuType in MODULATION_FSKDEV is FSK. In OOK mode, any value except 1, 2, 4, or 8 will result in Err 0x04—bad parameter in ARG4. In FSK mode, the minimum data rate is 200 bps. The ramp rate parameter dictates the minimum data rate. The Si4012 will set Err to 0x10 (data rate not supported) if the value is smaller than the minimum data rate on the specified Ramp Rate. 36 Ramp Rate 1 2 4 8 Min Data Rate (bps) 300 200 200 100 Preliminary Rev. 0.1 Si4012 5.2.8.

In this case, the input capacitance of the XTAL pin of the Si4012 is approximately 5.5 pF, so a (Cload – 5.5)pF capacitor should be placed externally across the crystal terminals. If Cload < 14 pF XO_LOWCAP bit of the XO_CONFIG property have to be set to 1. In this case, the input capacitance of the XTAL pin of the Si4012 is approximately 3 pF, so the external capacitor placed across the crystal has to be (Cload – 3)pF.
