1 Device Overview
1.1 Description
WE1005 is a low power IEEE 802.15.4, ZigBee and RF4CE module based on TI CC2530F256. This module can be
widely applied to short distance wireless network communication field with the characteristics of low power consumption,
small volume, strong anti-interference ability and so on. The module uses RF- specific high dielectric constant, low loss
sheet, and four-layer board wiring. Capacitance inductance components are from high-precision and high Q Murata
GRM series. The module also uses onboard power supply filter circuit and RF optimization matching circuit, which makes
the module better stability and farther transmission distance. To meet the industrial application requirements, the module
can be equipped with a shield on it, which increases the anti-jamming capability.

4.4 Basic Operation of Hardware Design
1. It is recommended to offer the module with a DC stabilized power supply, a tiny power supply ripple coefficient and
the reliable ground. Please pay attention to the correct connection between the positive and negative poles of the
power supply. Otherwise, the reverse connection may cause permanent damage to the module;
2. Please ensure the supply voltage is between the recommended values. The module will be permanently damaged
if the voltage exceeds the maximum value. Please ensure the stable power supply and no frequently fluctuated
voltage.
3. When designing the power supply circuit for the module, it is recommended to reserve more than 30% of the margin,
which is beneficial to the long-term stable operation of the whole machine. The module should be far away from the
power electromagnetic, transformer, high-frequency wiring and other parts with large electromagnetic interference.
4. The bottom of module should avoid high-frequency digital routing, high-frequency analog routing and power routing.
If it has to route the wire on the bottom of module, for example, it is assumed that the module is soldered to the Top
Layer, the copper must be spread on the connection part of the top layer and the module, and be close to the digital
part of module and routed in the Bottom Layer (all copper is well grounded).

5. Assuming that the module is soldered or placed in the Top Layer, it is also wrong to randomly route the Bottom Layer
or other layers, which will affect the spurs and receiving sensitivity of the module to some degrees;
6. Assuming that there are devices with large electromagnetic interference around the module, which will greatly affect
the module performance. It is recommended to stay away from the module according to the strength of the
interference. If circumstances permit, appropriate isolation and shielding can be done.
7. Assuming that there are routings of large electromagnetic interference around the module (high-frequency digital,
high-frequency analog, power routings), which will also greatly affect the module performance. It is recommended
to stay away from the module according to the strength of the interference. If circumstances permit, appropriate
isolation and shielding can be done.
8. It is recommended to stay away from the devices whose TTL protocol is the same 2.4 GHz physical layer, for
example: USB 3.0.
9. The antenna installation structure has a great influence on the module performance. It is necessary to ensure the
antenna is exposed and preferably vertically upward. When the module is installed inside of the case, a high-quality
antenna extension wire can be used to extend the antenna to the outside of the case.
10. The antenna must not be installed inside the metal case, which will cause the transmission distance to be greatly
weakened.
11. The recommendation of antenna layout.
The inverted-F antenna position on PCB is free space electromagnetic radiation. The location and layout of antenna
is a key factor to increase the data rate and transmission range.
Therefore, the layout of the module antenna location and routing is recommended as follows:
(1) Place the antenna on the edge (corner) of the PCB.
(2) Make sure that there is no signal line or copper foil in each layer below the antenna.
(3) It is the best to hollow out the antenna position in the following figure so as to ensure that S11 of the module
is minimally affected.
Figure 6. Recommendation of Antenna Layout
Note: The hollow-out position is based on the antenna used.

4.5 Trouble Shooting
4.5.1 Unsatisfactory Transmission Distance
1. When there is a linear communication obstacle, the communication distance will be correspondingly weakened.
Temperature, humidity, and co-channel interference will lead to an increase in communication packet loss rate. The
performances of ground absorption and reflection of radio waves will be poor, when the module is tested close to
the ground.
2. Seawater has a strong ability to absorb radio waves, so the test results by seaside are poor.
3. The signal attenuation will be very obvious, if there is a metal near the antenna or the module is placed inside of the
metal shell.
4. The incorrect power register set or the high data rate in an open air may shorten the communication distance. The
higher the data rate, the closer the distance.
5. The low voltage of the power supply is lower than the recommended value at ambient temperature, and the lower
the voltage, the smaller the power is.
6. The unmatchable antennas and module or the poor quality of antenna will affect the communication distance.
4.5.2 Vulnerable Module
1. Please ensure the supply voltage is between the recommended values. The module will be permanently damaged
if the voltage exceeds the maximum value. Please ensure the stable power supply and no frequently fluctuated
voltage.
2. Please ensure the anti-static installation and the electrostatic sensitivity of high-frequency devices.
3. Due to some humidity sensitive components, please ensure the suitable humidity during installation and application.
If there is no special demand, it is not recommended to use at too high or too low temperature.
4.5.3 High Bit Error Rate
1. There are co-channel signal interferences nearby. It is recommended to be away from the interference sources or
modify the frequency and channel to avoid interferences.
2. The unsatisfactory power supply may also cause garbled. It is necessary to ensure the power supply reliability.
3. If the extension wire or feeder wire is of poor quality or too long, the bit error rate will be high.
4.6 Electrostatics Discharge Warnings
The module will be damaged for the discharge of static. RF-star suggest that all modules should follow the 3 precautions
below:
1. According to the anti-static measures, bare hands are not allowed to touch modules.
2. Modules must be placed in anti- static areas.
3. Take the anti-static circuitry (when inputting HV or VHF) into consideration in product design.
Static may result in the degradation in performance of module, even causing the failure.
