2. The ON_OFF pin commands the EB-5631RE ON or OFF. The turn ON command is a hardware feature of the Power Control FSM when sensing a rising edge on the pin. The turn OFF command is a software feature based on interrupts related to rising and/or falling edges and/or sensing of pin levels.

3. The WAKE_UP pin is an output from the EB-5631RE used to enable an external PMIC. A low on this output indicates that the EB-5631RE is in one of its low-power states (KA-only, Hibernate, or Standby mode) and requires no more than 60μA of current on the VIO_18 input. A high on this output indicates that the EB-5631RE is in operational mode requiring an external regulator to provide enough current on both the VIO_18 and VREG_18 inputs to handle the peak current requirements of the EB-5631RE.

OPERATING Description

RF_IN

This pin receives signal of GPS analog via external active antenna. It has to be a controlled impedance trace at 50ohm. Do not have RF traces closed the other signal path and routing it on the top layer. Keep the RF traces as short as possible.

GND

This is Ground pin for the baseband circuit.

VBAT

This is the battery backup power input for the SRAM and RTC when main power is off. Without the external backup battery, EB-365 will always execute a cold star after turning on. To achieve the faster start-up offered by a hot or warm start, a battery backup must be connected. The battery voltage should be

ON or OFF. There are multiple methods of connecting this pin for different applications in order to minimise host resource requirements. The ON_OFF pin is used to command the EB-5631RE to turn on or off:  The turn on command is a hardware

feature of the Power Control FSM based on sensing a rising edge on the pin.

 The turn off command is a software

feature based on interrupts related to rising and/or falling edges and/ or sensing

of pin levels. (Not currently supported.) The ON_OFF pin processing is carried out by the Power Control FSM. The ON_OFF rising edge event during low power modes is recorded in a status register that is subsequently read by the processor once it is

between 2.0V and 3.5V.

EB-5631RE reserves pin, Just NC.

VCC

This is the main power supply to the engine board. (3.1Vdc to 3.5Vdc)

RESET

Low Active, when EB-5631RE is accepted this single, EB-5631RE going to Hibernate mode. If want EB-5631RE up, need input ON_OFF single.

GPIO

User can use this I/O pin for special functions. (For example, control LED)

TIMEMARK

This pin provides one pulse-per-second output from the board, which is synchronized to GPS

running. When the processor is running at the time of an ON_OFF event, the processor can poll the status or set-up an interrupt.

WAKE_UP

System power controller, when EB-5631RE

Power ON, this pin will output 1.8Vdc.

TXD

This is the main transmits channel for outputting navigation and measurement data

to user’s navigation software or user written

software. Output is TTL level, 0V ~ 2.85V.

RXD

This is the main channel for receiving software commands from SiRFDemo software or from your proprietary software.

time. This is not available in Trickle Power mode

ON_OFF

The ON_OFF pin commands the EB-5631RE

. If do not use it, Just NC.

NMEA Input Command

A). Set Serial Port ID: 100 Set PORTA parameters and protocol

This command message is used to set the protocol (SiRF Binary, NMEA, or USER1) and/or the communication parameters (baud, data bits, stop bits, parity). Generally, this command would be used to switch the module back to SiRF Binary protocol mode where a more extensive command message set is available. For example, to change navigation parameters. When a valid message is received, the parameters will be stored in battery backed SRAM and then the receiver will restart using the saved parameters.

Format:

$PSRF100,<protocol>,<baud>,<DataBits>,<StopBits>,<Parity>*CKSUM<CR><LF>

Example 1: Switch to SiRF Binary protocol at 9600,8,N,1

$PSRF100,0,9600,8,1,0*0C<CR><LF>

Example 2: Switch to User1 protocol at 38400,8,N,1

$PSRF100,4,38400,8,1,0*38<CR><LF>

**Checksum Field: The absolute value calculated by exclusive-OR the 8 data bits of each

character in the Sentence, between, but excluding “$” and “*”. The hexadecimal value of the most

significant and least significant 4 bits of the result are converted to two ASCII characters (0-9, A-F) for transmission. The most significant character is transmitted first.

**<CR><LF> : Hex 0D 0A

B). Navigation lnitialization ID：101 Parameters required for start

This command is used to initialize the module for a warm start, by providing current position （in X,

Y, Z coordinates）,clock offset, and time. This enables the receiver to search for the correct satellite signals at the correct signal parameters. Correct initialization parameters will enable the

receiver to acquire signals more quickly, and thus, produce a faster navigational solution. When a valid Navigation Initialization command is received, the receiver will restart using the input parameters as a basis for satellite selection and acquisition.

C). Set DGPS Port ID: 102 Set PORT B parameters for DGPS input

This command is used to control Serial Port B that is an input only serial port used to receive RTCM differential corrections. Differential receivers may output corrections using different communication parameters. The default communication parameters for PORT B are 9600Baud, 8data bits, 0 stop bits, and no parity. If a DGPS receiver is used which has different communication parameters, use this command to allow the receiver to correctly decode the data. When a valid message is received,

D). Query/Rate Control ID: 103 Query standard NMEA message and/or set output rate

This command is used to control the output of standard NMEA message GGA, GLL, GSA, GSV, RMC, VTG. Using this command message, standard NMEA message may be polled once, or setup for periodic output. Checksums may also be enabled or disabled depending on the needs of the receiving program. NMEA message settings are saved in battery backed memory for each entry when the message is accepted.

E). LLA Navigation lnitialization ID: 104 Parameters required to start using Lat/Lon/Alt

This command is used to initialize the module for a warm start, by providing current position (in Latitude, Longitude, Altitude coordinates), clock offset, and time. This enables the receiver to search for the correct satellite signals at the correct signal parameters. Correct initialization parameters will enable the receiver to acquire signals more quickly, and thus, will produce a faster navigational solution. When a valid LLA Navigation Initialization command is received, the receiver will restart using the input parameters as a basis for satellite selection and acquisition.

F). Development Data On/Off ID: 105 Switch Development Data Messages On/Off

Use this command to enable development debug information if you are having trouble getting commands accepted. Invalid commands will generate debug information that should enable the user to determine the source of the command rejection. Common reasons for input command rejection are invalid checksum or parameter out of specified range. This setting is not preserved across a module reset.

G). Select Datum ID: 106 Selection of datum to be used for coordinate Transformations

GPS receivers perform initial position and velocity calculations using an earth-centered earth-fixed (ECEF) coordinate system. Results may be converted to an earth model (geoid) defined by the selected datum. The default datum is WGS 84 (World Geodetic System 1984) which provides a worldwide common grid system that may be translated into local coordinate systems or map datums. (Local map datums are a best fit to the local shape of the earth and not valid worldwide.)

Examples: Datum select TOKYO_MEAN

PCB Layout Recommendations

Do not routing the other signal or power trace under the engine board.

RF:

This pin receives signal of GPS analog via external active antenna .It has to be a controlled impedance trace at 50ohm. Do not place the RF traces close to the other signal path and not routing it on the top layer. Keep the RF traces as short as possible.

Antenna:

Keep the active antenna on the top of your system and confirm the antenna radiation pattern、axial

ratio、power gain、noise figure、VSWR are correct when you Setup the antenna in your case.
