Agenda Current status of design work Description of design Extra features Dimensions Schedule 3 Confidential mSemicon & UCD 29/08/2015
3
Current Status of Design Work Schematic has been completed about 99% All on-board electronic components selected Only issue remaining relates to selection of connectors Some other minor issues Some feedback required on mechanical issues Following today’s review, layout is expected to begin immediately 4 Confidential mSemicon & UCD 29/08/2015

General Description of Design The schematic is divided into eight separate sheets describing: CODEC / ADC circuit FPGA circuit Audio and ultrasonic inputs Audio input circuitry (Input 1) General input circuitry (Input 2) Microcontroller circuitry Output circuitry Power supply circuitry (Prior USB circuitry, to be removed) New USB circuitry 5 Confidential mSemicon & UCD 29/08/2015
5
CODEC / ADC Design based on two devices: ADC for simultaneous sampling (for non-audio applications) ADS1174/8 For slowly changing signals: DC to 4kHz sampling Four channel CODEC AD1937 Very high performance: high speed Built-in audio filters Extremely low noise 6 Confidential mSemicon & UCD 29/08/2015
6
FPGA Design based on Xilinx XC3S250 (Spartan) General purpose FPGA Configuration by: JTAG (during development) SPI (direct, during test and development); SPI can be directly updated by USB (i.e. not through the microcontroller) on deployment 7 Confidential mSemicon & UCD 29/08/2015
7
Audio Input Circuitry – Input 1 Catering for audio range (2) and ultrasonic range (2) Number of total usable inputs depends on sample rate Extremely low noise amplifiers 8 Confidential mSemicon & UCD 29/08/2015
8
General Input Circuitry - Input 2 Catering for general inputs from sensors and switches Four analogue inputs Eight digital I/O User configurable via microcontroller 9 Confidential mSemicon & UCD 29/08/2015

Microcontroller Circuit Based on STM32F103V9 Cortex device from ST Latest generation Cortex ARM processor Built in RAM/Flash Multifunction I/O JTAG programmable in-circuit debugger RS 232 debug port, allowing external programming of micro flash GSM port 10 Confidential mSemicon & UCD 29/08/2015

Output Circuitry Drivers for speakers Audio Ultrasonic On board relays (2) IR LED drivers (shown on FPGA sheet) IR detection to be added 11 Confidential mSemicon & UCD 29/08/2015

Power Supply Works on 12-30V dc in Generated on board: 1.2V, 2.5V (linear), 3.3V x 2, 5V, -11V, +11V Point of load power supply design FPGA powered separately Analogue circuitry powered separately Microcontroller can operate on its own Current sensor on board, monitoring total current consumption Information processed by microcontroller 12 Confidential mSemicon & UCD 29/08/2015

(Prior USB Design) Until last few weeks, USB was run on a MCS7840 Four channel UART to USB device Satisfied requirements, but Heavy load on FPGA Mandated FPGA programming indirectly A new device is becoming available now, and will be used instead 13 Confidential mSemicon & UCD 29/08/2015
13
New USB Ciruitry FTDI USB-high speed data port A new electronic device is being sampled at the moment, and will enter production “in March 2009” which, on board, would allow: Direct programming of the SPI Direct access to generalised I/O CPU high-speed parallel bus interface (asynchronous) Four fold (+) increase in performance Host can talk directly to the FPGA via file transfer 14 Confidential mSemicon & UCD 29/08/2015
14
Extra Features Adding a port for a display: Considering making provision for LCD display This enables easier autonomous use of device Display itself not installed on boards Other features being considered and, if possible, included 15 Confidential mSemicon & UCD 29/08/2015

Current Draft Connector Requirements 16 Confidential mSemicon & UCD 29/08/2015 ConnectorType of Socket PowerStandard USB (1)USB-B Acoustic microphone (4) [high perf.] 3.5mm jack Acoustic speaker (1)3.5mm jack Ultrasonic speaker (1)3.5mm jack Ultrasonic microphones (4)3.5mm jack Digital I/OIDC 0.1” Relay contactsIDC 0.1” Analog expansion slotIDC 0.1” External DC power supply3.1mm power
16
Connectors – Sensor Inputs The selection of connectors influences overall board size Try to be as compact as possible Another requirement is that special mating connectors should not be necessary – for R&D work A suitable connector style is the DIN 45326 Can take up to 8 wires in one unit Suitable for sensor inputs Rotates and locks into position Wires can be soldered onto mating part This type proposed for simultaneous inputs 17 Confidential mSemicon & UCD 29/08/2015
17
Connectors – Power Board uses 12V in, but also supplies 12V out to feed Processor Unit Requires compact multi-pole solution Needs to be robust, and not subject to loosening due to vibration Needs to snap into position Propose Mini-Fit Jr™ 5569 from Molex Or equivalent from Würth 18 Confidential mSemicon & UCD 29/08/2015
18
Audio I/O – Audible and Ultrasonic Both pairs of microphones will be installed on daughterboard(s) “Both” meaning audible and ultrasonic Main board will be upside-down Daughterboard will be suspended underneath The relative orientation of daughter-boards, if two, has to be decided Alternative could be a small single board with four microphones, pairs mounted at extremities 19 Confidential mSemicon & UCD 29/08/2015
19
Dimensions Circuit board layout not started yet Connectors have a very important bearing on overall size Issue to be settled Orientation of PIR sensor and microphone daughterboard important Propose DIN style for general inputs Can accommodate 4 pairs each Dimensions are expect to be in the range of 120mm x 170mm 20 Confidential mSemicon & UCD 29/08/2015
20
Near-term Schedule Layout to begin 15/12/08 Scheduled to finish late January Bare boards available first week of February Will be built up and debugged gradually HW: PS, processor,... SW: Linux USB driver (SPI & CPU bus), FPGA VHDL (in progress), Micro board support Best case scenario is 6 weeks after board arrives for first sample With partial driver and board support package functionality Likely scenario is 9 weeks after board arrives for first sample 21 Confidential mSemicon & UCD 29/08/2015
