Key Fob Originally we were considering using pre-programmable key fobs. However, this approach was unwarranted since we would have to reverse engineer the key fobs in order to make our transceiver on the other end communicate with it. Due to the synergy of the project, the key fob transmitter is similar in communication function compared to the receiver. This allows us to produce a transmitter almost directly from our receiver schematic. The major differences are: Key fob uses 2 buttons No Buzzer or Display
Microcontroller- MSP430F2272 Processes incoming events. Applies timestamp Stores data Outputs data to external PC
MSP430F2272 Advantages Large Flash Memory –32kB of Flash Memory Low Power Consumption UART, SPI, and I 2 C compatible interfaces Flash Memory Program Execution
Transceiver- MiRF v2 Low cost Low Power (Requires Switch Converter works with V input) Works with in our required area (30ft Radius) 125 Channels (Between 2.4MHz – MHz) Works in Open band (2.4GHz range) Built in Antenna Compact size Readily available Standby mode to save power
Transceiver- Dev Board Look at data sent and received over the wireless link. Can tweak firmware on the MiRF v2 (change channel used) Preloaded firmware for testing. Low Cost Dev Board
LED- Score Display Lite-on LTD segment LED Lower Power 7mm digit height High Contrast Wide Viewing Angle Low Cost Requires BCD
BCD to 7-segment Driver TI CD4511BE CMOS Latches input
Vibrator- DC Motor G13566 Costs less than $1 when bought in bulk 11 mm x 4.5 mm Runs on as low as 1V DC (.05W) Will require a MOSFET to power
Power Regulator ADP2105 Buck Converter 2.7V - 5.5V input range 3.3V output ~96% Efficiency 1 A max load current
Real Time Clock- MT41T0 Features: Seconds, minutes, hours, day, date, month, years, and century 32KHz crystal oscillator Serial interface supports I2C bus Low standby current 0.9μA 2.0 to 5.5V clock operating voltage

To hub or not to hub? Hub Advantages Single station for devices Hub Disadvantages Limited mobility Higher cost Limited expansion
Proposed USB Connect the Receiver directly to an external PC via USB. –Increased Mobility –Less Expensive –Supports any number of devices
USB Port Interface Allows communication between our devices and the PC through Mini USB connection. This allows a easier form of programming and data retrieval than original base station design. This connector interfaces directly with the MSP430’s UART. This provides the option to incorporate a rechargeable battery by connection to the USB. 5 V input from USB bus (for rechargeable battery) Variable baud rate 100mA maximum output current
