Block Diagram
This module is based on DecaWave DW1000 single-chip UWB transceiver and nRF52832 Nordic Semiconductor 2.4GHz wireless System on Chip (SoC). It integrates a 32-bit ARM Cortex™ M4 CPU, 512 kB flash memory, 64 kB RAM as well as analog and digital peripherals. Despite the small size of 9.0 x 16.0 x 1.9 mm, the module integrates decoupling capacitors, 38.4 MHz crystal for UWB, 32 MHz and 32.768 kHz crystals for BLE, DC-DC converters, RF matching circuits and two antennas in addition to the wireless SoCs. Low power consumption and advanced power management enables battery lifetimes up to several months on a coin cell battery.
UWB communication is compliant to IEEE 802.15.4. Using a simple user interface controlled over the air by Bluetooth or by SPI, ISP1510 offers the perfect stand-alone ranging module solution for security bubble or maximum 15 meters range applications. For longer range applications with typically 50 meters distance, ISP1510 can be used in conjunction with an external UWB antenna. Alternatively, it can be connected to an external microprocessor for more complex positioning algorithms, in which case all the processing is carried out externally to the module.
BLE connectivity compliant to Bluetooth V4.2. ISP1510 BLE section can be used either in Peripheral or Central roles for BLE. Fully qualified BLE stacks for nRF52832 are implemented in the S132 SoftDevice which can be freely downloaded.
