2. OVERVIEW
Rapid IoT Developmet Kit is a system that reduces the length of IoT prototyping cycles from
a matter weeks or months to mere hours - all by capitalizing on the combination of
embedded IoT software and hardware, designed to provide the complete development
environment to the user and intended to be used with add-on boards (Raspberry Pi, Arduino
and TI Launchpad). The aim of this document is the description of the Development Kit
hardware solution along with the interface of add-on boards being useful for developing an
IoT hardware prototyping as fast as possible.
The information presented in this document is believed to be accurate and reliable.

NOTE:
1. The Operating Voltage Range MUST never be exceeded. If the voltage
drop is exceeding the limits it could cause a Power Off to the cellular
module.
2. The EVK4 can source power to the add-on boards in Booster pack mode
(4.1V) mainly for portable applications with the battery.

5. ADD-ON BOARDS
The EVK4 supports three types of add-on boards: TI Launchpads, Raspberry Pi and
Arduino boards. The header connectors for the add-on boards are available on both sides
of the EVK4 allowing a stackable configuration.
The add-on boards must be inserted carefully to match the position of the EVK4 connectors,
making sure that the pin headers are vertically aligned upon among connectors upon
insertion.
Texas Instruments Launchpad
A variety of Booster Pack plug-in modules are supported through the 40-pin headers (P801
and P802). For more information about the standard and specific pinout of every Launchpad
circuit board go to: http://www.ti.com/lsds/ti/tools-software/launchpads/launchpads.page

Arduino
A variety of Arduino boards and shields are supported (32 pin and 86 pin configuration)
through the ‘c’ headers (PL1001~PL1007). The Arduino boards (8-bit and 32-bit) are usually
inserted from the bottom of the EVK4 board whereas the Arduino shields are inserted on
top.
For more information about the standard and specific pinout of every Arduino board type go
to: http://www.arduino.org/products/boards
5.3.1. Arduino UNO Form Factor Boards
Be careful upon inserting the small Arduino boards like the UNO or Zero since there is a
mechanical issue with the P801 header due to the height of some components like with the
Arduino UNO where the Microcontroller (DIP package) physically interfere with the board
placement, therefore an extension headers must be used together with this type of boards.

Each add-on board has its own GPIO configuration, thus make sure to
perform a proper setup along with the correct jumper placement to
avoid a malfunctioning of the system.

8. SENSORS
I²C Bus
All the sensors and battery monitor are connected to the I²C bus, therefore the I²C lines
shall be configured correctly to establish a proper communication.
NOTE:
SDA and SCL lines have 10KΩ pull-up resistors.
List of Sensors, Battery Monitor
NOTE:(*) Some sensors are not populated by default. Ask to the technical
support for the complete BOM if you want to mount the sensors
Sensor Interrupt Lines
The LSM6DS3 and LPS25H, and OPT3001DNP have an output (INT) that can be used as

9. MISCELANEOUS
Potentiometers
The EVK4 has two potentiometers of 10KΩ.
The PL206 jumper should be configured based on the mode of operation (Refer to chapter
6.6).
Guidelines
Push-Button Switches
The EVK4 has two push button switches that are latched (On-On) to set a ‘1’ logic or ’0’
logic.
The PL208 and PL207 jumpers should be configured based on the mode of operation
(Refer to chapter 6.4 and 6.5).

14. SAFETY RECOMMENDATIONS
READ CAREFULLY
Be sure the use of this product is allowed in the country and in the environment required.
The use of this product may be dangerous and has to be avoided in the following areas:
Where it can interfere with other electronic devices in environments such as
hospitals, airports, aircrafts, etc.
Where there is risk of explosion such as gasoline stations, oil refineries, etc. It is the
responsibility of the user to enforce the country regulation and the specific
environment regulation.
Do not disassemble the product; any mark of tampering will compromise the warranty
validity. We recommend following the instructions of the hardware user guides for correct
wiring of the product. The product has to be supplied with a stabilized voltage source and
the wiring has to be conformed to the security and fire prevention regulations. The product
has to be handled with care, avoiding any contact with the pins because electrostatic
discharges may damage the product itself. Same cautions have to be taken for the SIM,
checking carefully the instruction for its use. Do not insert or remove the SIM when the
product is in power saving mode.
The system integrator is responsible for the functioning of the final product; therefore, care
has to be taken to the external components of the module, as well as any project or
installation issue, because the risk of disturbing the GSM network or external devices or
having impact on the security. Should there be any doubt, please refer to the technical
documentation and the regulations in force. Every module has to be equipped with a proper
antenna with specific characteristics. The antenna has to be installed with care in order to
avoid any interference with other electronic devices and has to guarantee a minimum
distance from the body (20 cm). In case this requirement cannot be satisfied, the system
integrator has to assess the final product against the SAR regulation.
The European Community provides some Directives for the electronic equipment
introduced on the market. All of the relevant information is available on the European
Community website:
http://ec.europa.eu/enterprise/sectors/rtte/documents/
The text of the Directive 99/05 regarding telecommunication equipment is available,
while the applicable Directives (Low Voltage and EMC) are available at:
