8. Design Guideline
BLE firmware refers to the set of software that includes the BLE stacks compliant to the Bluetooth Low Energy
protocol. RTBTM01 BLE module has pre-loaded configuration software has the application running on a
standalone MCU (hereafter referred to as Modem mode) although the alternative configuration - one has
is also possible.

8.2 Serial Communication with RTBTM01
Software in Modem mode runs TM01 module and the host MCU. Host
MCU and RTBTM01 communicates via serial interface (UART). The exchange data is encapsulated based on
the RSCIP (Renesas Serial Communication Interface Protocol). The RSCIP is based on the SLIP (Serial Line
Internet Protocol) defined in RFC 1055, and is extended. The RSCIP ensures the reliability and robustness of
the data communication using error recovery capabilities by retransmission.
The RSCIP driver performs protocol processing and control of the serial driver. It’s a part of the rBLE_Host
software, whose source code would be provided to customer, refer to Figure 8-1 RTBTM01 and Host MCU.
For instruction how to use rBLE_Host, Refer to the Application Note: Renesas rBLE Command Specification
for more details.

9. Mounting Requirements & Parameters
9.1 Mounting Requirement
RTBTM01 is a sensitive RF module. While using default on-module antenna, it’d better to be mounted at the
corner of the application board and reserve some keep out space to the components on the application board.
The RTBTM01 antenna is optimized for application board thickness of 1.0 mm. Do not place any metal (traces,
components, battery etc.) on all layers within the keep-out area of the antenna. Connect all the GND pins
directly to a solid GND plane and punch the GND vias on application board as close to the module GND pins
as possible. Use good layout practices to avoid any excessive noise coupling to signal lines or supply voltage
lines.
The figure below illustrates how to mount the RTBTM01 module. Improper mounting will decrease the RF
performance dramatically.

This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
(1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and
(2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired
operation.
Changes or modifications to this unit not expressly approved by the party responsible for
compliance could void the user's authority to operate the equipment
NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital
device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection
against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate
radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause
harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not

reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to
correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
—Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
—Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
—Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is
connected.
—Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
