Si4010 D

1. Key Fob Development Platform

The Si4010 key fob development platform is a flexible platform for comfortably developing software and testing the

whole system using the Silicon Laboratories software development IDE. The platform also allows programming of

the NVM on chip. The kit has three versions: one for the 434 MHz band (P/N 4010-KFOBDEV-434), one for the

868 MHz band (P/N 4010- KFOBDEV-868) and one for the 915 MHz band (P/N 4010-KFOBDEV-915).

Page 3 Si4010-DK 1.1.1. Burning Adapter (P/N MSC-BA4) The programming interface board serves as an interface in between the debug adapter and the Socketed Key Fob Development Board or the Development Key Fob. It provides 6.5 V for NVM programming. The power source is activated by a sliding switch on the board.
Page 4 Si4010-DK 1.1.3. Si4010 MSOP Key Fob Development Board 434 MHz, SMA (P/N 4010-DKPB434-BM) This development board has an unburned soldered Si4010, five push buttons, matched 50  SMA RF output, battery clip, and battery switch. This board allows running user application from RAM during program development even while board is disconnected and powered by the battery.

Page 8 Si4010-DK 1.3. Usage of the Key Fob Development Platform The Silicon Labs IDE communicates with the USB Debug Adapter through the USB bus. The following debugging scenarios are possible: 1. EC3 debug adapter  Burning adapterSi4010 socketed key fob development board This setup is suitable for downloading, running, and debugging the program in RAM or burning the program in the NVM and running it.
Page 9 4 kB version with no code placement limitation by following the directions given in application note AN104 about Keil toolchain integration and license management. Unlock code can be found on the WDS CDROM in the root folder in the Keil_license_number.txt file. Contact your Silicon Laboratories sales representative or distributor for application assistance.
Page 10 Si4010-DK 2.3. IDE Features The IDE allows the following: 1. Download the OMF-51 linker output format (Keil BL51 linker output, for example) and match the source code lines with the compiled file. This allows source code debugging, including variable value viewing, set- ting breakpoints, single-stepping, etc.
Page 11 Si4010-DK 2.6. Device Version 1. The device ID information can be read through the IDE through Views  Debug Windows  Si4010  XREG Regs. The last item bREV_ID is the device revision. The user can also call the API function bSys_GetRevId().
Page 12 Si4010-DK Facts about using the LED with IDE chain: 1. The IDE chain can connect to the device only if the LED current driver is off and the LED is not lit. 2. Once the IDE chain is connected to the device it blocks the device LED driver. Therefore, the application can be written in a normal fashion using LED as desired in the final application without worry of being dis- connected from the debug chain.
Page 13 Si4010-DK The intensity setting can be changed any time, even when the GPIO_LED = 1. This is basically how the LED control operates. This approach will work when the part status is finalized as the Run device, since for that program level the C2 interface is turned off after the boot-by-boot routine. However, when the code above is used for a device in the Factory or User programming state, then the GPIO4 will stop working after the first LED blink.
Page 14 Si4010-DK If we disable the C2 interface when the device is not connected to the IDE chain, and before the LED is turned off when lit, then there will not be the GPIO4 problem. To do that the user must add the following function to the user application to turn the LED on.
Page 15 Si4010-DK *------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Assembly version of the same function, assuming that the file name is ledon.a51 for Keil toolchain. ;------------------------------------------------------------------------------ INCLUDES: $NOLIST $INCLUDE (si4010.inc) $LIST ;--------------------------------------------------------------------------- SEGMENTS: ; Assumes file name to be ledon.a51 .. capitalized LEDON is the file name NAME LEDON ?PR?vLedOn?LEDON SEGMENT CODE...
Page 16 Si4010-DK ; -- End of assembly ;--------------------------------------------------------------------------- The function is able to determine whether the device is connected to the IDE chain. If it is not connected, then the function turns the C2 interface off. Once that is done it is not possible to turn the C2 interface back on unless the power to the device, or at least to the digital portion of the device, is cycled.
Page 17 Si4010-DK 3. The vLedOn() function code is bigger than simple GPIO_LED=1 and is not necessary for the Run part, so conditional compilation for LED bug may still be an option. One recommendation for using the vLedOn() function is that the user application would include monitoring of several buttons pressed simultaneously.

Examples provided There are 5 demonstration examples provided with the development kit documentation pack: 1. aes_demo 2. fcast_demo 3. fstep_demo 4. tone_demo 5. keyfob_demo 6. rke_demo All are precompiled and ready to be used without compilation for convenience. The user just needs to go to the <name>_demo/bin directory and open the Silicon Labs IDE *.wsp project file by the Silicon Labs IDE.

Packets can be received by an 4355-LED-XXX-SRX board. Buttons are debounced using the Button Service API functions. 3.6. RKE key fob demo-rke_demo An advanced key fob demo using AES encryption, rolling counter in MTP memory, battery voltage measurement, and production ID of chip as node address.
