OPERATING Description

NC

EB-5365RE reserves pin, Just NC.

TIMEMARK

This pin provides one pulse-per-second

output from the board, which is synchronized

to GPS time. This is not available in Trickle

Power mode. If do not use it, Just NC.

GPIO

User can use this I/O pin for special functions.

(For example, control LED)

Wake Up

System power controller, when EB-5365RE

Power ON, this pin will output 1.8V

dc

.

ON_OFF

The ON_OFF pin commands the EB-5365RE

ON or OFF. There are multiple methods of

connecting this pin for different applications

in order to minimize host resource

requirements.

The ON_OFF pin is used to command the

EB-5365RE 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

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.

VCC_RF

VCC_RF can supply Active Antenna Bias

voltage (3.3V). This pin will supply Active

Antenna. If do not use it, Just NC.

GND

This is Ground pin for the baseband circuit.

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.

DR I2C Interface

The I²C host port interface supports:

Operation up to 400kbps

Individual transmit and receive FIFO lengths of

64B

■ The default I

2

C address values are:

Rx: 0x60

Tx: 0x62

Multi-master I²C mode is supported by default.

Dead reckoning applications support the DR

I²C interface. The I²C interface supports

required sensor instruments such as gyros,

accelerometers, compasses or other sensors

that can operate with an I²C bus.

DR I²C interface supports:

Typical data lengths (command + in/data out)

of several bytes

Standard I²C bus maximum data rate 400kbps

Minimum data rate 100kbps
