•
The EVM board can be powered by RF scavenged energy, battery, FET emulator tool, or USB power.
When powered through the USB connection or an MSP-FET emulation tool, switch S6 must be set to
"Supply". If the EVM is powered by scavenged RF energy or a battery, switch S6 must be set to
"Battery".
•
•
•
Level translators are used on I2C, SPI, and FET emulator interfaces.
The power (green) LED should turns on only when the board is powered by a USB connection.
Jumper SV7 is needed to bypass the internal battery switch and provide power directly to the core.
This jumper should be populated for most use cases.
•
When the EVM is powered by the USB connection, the Alarm LED briefly flashes at power-up or stays
illuminated if there is an interrupt from the RF430FRL152H. It is normal for the Alarm LED to stay lit
during MSP-FET tool programming.

2.2 Hardware Overview
Figure 7 shows an overview of the RF430FRL152HEVM hardware.
Figure 7. RF430FRL152HEVM Hardware
2.3 Hardware Configurations
2.3.1
Passive (Unpowered) Operation
In this mode, the RF430FRL152H is powered entirely from the RF field generated by the reader.
1. Set S6 to "Battery".
2. Set S3 to "S" (slave mode).
3. Make sure that USB and the MSP-FET emulation tool are not connected.
4. Place the EVM antenna on top of a NFC reader/writer to communicate.
Neither the "Alarm" or the "Power" LEDs illuminate in this mode of operation at any time. At this time a
NFC/RFID reader may be used to communicate to the RF430FRL152HEVM.
2.3.2
Debugging or Programming
The following instructions show how to program the FRAM memory or debug the RF430FRL152H using a
MSP-FET emulation tool. In this configuration the EVM is powered by the MSP-FET emulation tool.
1. Set switch S6 (near the BoosterPack plug-in module headers) to "Supply".
2. Connect the MSP-FET430 emulation tool to the JTAG header, SV2.
3. Start a debug session using IAR or CSS IDE.
4. Connection with the USB cable is not necessary for debugging or programming the RF430FRL152H.
Note: The Alarm LED may be illuminated during the debugging process if the USB cable is connected.
This is normal behavior.
Note: If the USB cable is not connected, the power LED (U5) and the Alarm LED (7) are not illuminated
even if the emulation tool is connected. This is normal behavior.
The MSP-FET emulation tool can be used to program or debug the EVM at this point.

Hardware Description
2.3.3
Using a BoosterPack Plug-in Module or Digital Sensors
An example of this use case is using the Sensor Hub BoosterPack plug-in module. In this configuration
the EVM is powered by the USB connection.
1. Set switch S6 (near the BoosterPack plug-in module headers) to "Supply".
2. Set switch S3 to "M" (master mode).
3. Attach the BoosterPack plug-in module on top of the EVM, making sure it is in the correct orientation
(pin 1 on the EVM matches pin 1 on the BoosterPack plug-in module headers).
4. Connect the USB cable to either the BoosterPack plug-in module or the RF430FRL152HEVM.
Note: When the USB cable is attached, the power LED (U5) stays illuminated. The Alarm LED (U7) should
momentarily illuminate and then turn off.
Now the TRF7970AEVM can be used to communicate to the part and initiate samples of the various
sensors.
2.3.4
Using a Host Controller
In this mode, the host LaunchPad development kit is connected underneath the RF430FRL152HEVM.
Make sure the orientations match.
1. Set switch S6 (near the BoosterPack plug-in module headers) to "Supply" setting.
2. Set S3 to "S" (slave mode).
3. For a host that uses I2C, S5 and S4 determine the two least significant bits of the I2C slave address for
the RF430FRL152H. For most cases, set these switches to the "0" positions.
4. For a host that uses SPI, S5 and S4 determine the SPI mode. For most cases, set these switches to
the "0" positions.
5. Set S5 or S4 to desired setting at this time.
6. Connect the LaunchPad development kit and the EVM together.
7. Power either the LaunchPad development kit or the EVM by connecting either to a USB cable.
Note: When the USB cable is attached, the power LED (U5) stay illuminated. The Alarm LED (U7) should
momentarily illuminate and then turn off.
2.3.5
Powering the EVM Using a Battery
1. Insert an SR66 1.5-V battery into the battery holder (BAT1).
2. Note: The first time that a battery is inserted, the battery holder may be tight. Carefully holding the
board with a flat object, firmly slide in the battery. Make sure that the positive side of the battery is
facing the positive (or top) side of the battery holder.
3. Set S6 to "Battery".
4. If the battery switch is open (the battery switch is inside the RF430FRL152H), SV7 needs to have a
jumper to power the part. If the battery switch is closed, then SV7 does not need a jumper to power the
RF430FRL152H.
Note: In this mode, the alarm and power LEDs are not illuminated. The device is still powered and
operational.
Note: Also if S5, S4, or S3 positions are changed after powering the EVM, a reset is required for the
changed settings to take effect. This can be done through the PC GUI or by pressing the reset switch
(S2).
Note: If a battery is installed and another configuration (for example, debugging or using a BoosterPack
plug-in module) is required, set switch S6 to "Supply" to disconnect the battery and not drain it.

Overview
This section describes the meaning of each of the options on each tab. Remember, checking an option
does not immediately cause that option to be set. It is only set after a "Write" button click is performed.
Any changes that have occurred on the part, like new status, will not be visible until a "Read" button click
has been done.
4.1 Connection to the EVM
Before any configuration can be done to the device using this application, a serial connection must be
established. This can be done with the controls on the bottom of the application.
There is a drop-down list in which either a particular port can be chosen, if it is already known, or an
automatic selection can be chosen.
When this is done, click on "Connect to TRF7970AEVM". If the connection succeeds, the text of the button
changes to "Disconnect from TRF7970AEVM".
If the EVM is plugged in after the application starts, then the drop-down list does not have the currently
available COM port selection. Click on the "Update" button to update the list.
4.2 Typical Sequence
In a typical sequence (for example, to do a thermistor measurement) follow these steps. These steps are
more fully described in the RF430FRL15xH Firmware User's Guide.
1. Configure the thermistor measurement parameters:
1. Select the thermistor sensor.
2. Set how many times it needs to be sampled.
3. If sampled more than one time, select the delay between the samples.
4. Select the ADC configuration (resolution, PGA setting, and type of filter).
These settings are written to the virtual registers in the FRAM memory using RF communication.
2. Write the start bit in the control register to start the sampling process.
3. There is a delay while the sampling process is being performed.
4. After sampling is complete, the requested measurements are stored into the log memory, typically
FRAM (after the virtual registers).

Setup of Demo System
The following sections describe how to setup a demo with and without the Sensor Hub BoosterPack plug-
in module, and also for custom configuring and operation of the device.
5.1 Set up the RF430FRL152HEVM With Sensor Hub Demo Using the PC
This section describes how to setup and run the Sensor Hub BoosterPack plug-in module demo. With this
setup, the RF430FRL152HEVM samples over I2C three different sensors on the SensorHub BoosterPack
plug-in module. They are temperature and humidity (SHT21) and a light sensor (ISL29023). After
collecting the samples, the data is transmitted over RF to the TRF7970AEVM which reports them to the
PC application. Finally the results are plotted on the graphs.
1. Connect the TRF7970AEVM to the PC with a USB cable.
2. On the RF430FRL152HEVM, use a pencil or pen to position the switches as shown in Table 2

In this case, disconnect the TRF7970AEVM and reconnect it, then restart at step 1. If this still does not
solve the problem, make sure that the TRF7970AEVM has the latest firmware downloaded from the
TRF7970AEVM tool folder.
9. In the "Setup Tab", select the "With Sensor Hub BoosterPack" and "RF430FRL152HEVM" options on
the Device Interface Selection.
10. Select the "Demo Mode" tab.
11. Click the "Start Sensor Hub Demo" button.
12. The GUI starts to plot the temperature and light intensity samples on the graphs.
1. To plot these values, the PC GUI configures the RF430FRL152HEVM through the TRF7970AEVM
to take three different samples from the Sensor Hub BoosterPack plug-in module. The
RF430FRL152HEVM already has the drivers loaded into the FRAM to enable the measurements
to be made.
2. When the samples are complete, the PC GUI reads the result from FRAM of the
RF430FRL152HEVM through the TRF7970AEVM and plots it on the graphs in the PC GUI.
13. To change the measurements, you can place your hand over the light sensor or heat the thermistor
(U5).
5.2 Set up the RF430FRL152HEVM Demo Using the PC
This section describes how to setup and run the sensor demo. With this setup, the RF430FRL152HEVM
samples, using the onboard ADC, two external sensors, the thermistor and the light sensor. After
collecting the samples, the data is transmitted over RF to the TRF7970AEVM which reports them to the
PC application. Finally the results are plotted on the graphs. In this demo the RF430FRL152HEVM is run
completely wireless, with no power or data connections.
1. Connect the TRF7970AEVM to the PC with a USB cable.
2. On the RF430FRL152HEVM, use a pen or pencil to set the mini-switches as shown in Table 3.

6. Press the "Connect to TRF7970AEVM" button on the bottom of the window.
7. A few seconds after you click the "Connect" button, the label next to the button should show
"Connected to TRF7970AEVM on COMx".
If this is not displayed, then a connection has not been made. In this case, disconnect the
TRF7970AEVM and reconnect it, then restart at step 1. If this still does not solve the problem, make
sure that the TRF7970AEVM has the latest firmware downloaded from the TRF7970AEVM tool folder.
8. In the "Setup Tab" select the "Without Sensor Hub BoosterPack" and "RF430FRL152HEVM" options.
9. Go to the "Demo Mode" tab.
10. Click the "Start Demo" button.
11. The GUI starts to plot the temperature and light intensity samples on the graphs.
1. To plot these values, the PC GUI configures the RF430FRL152HEVM through the TRF7970AEVM
to take two different samples from the analog thermistor and light sensors.
2. When the samples are complete, the PC GUI reads the result from FRAM of the
RF430FRL152HEVM through the TRF7970AEVM and plots it on the graphs in the PC GUI.
12. To change the measurements, you can place your hand over the light sensor or press the thermistor
with a finger to affect the temperature result. The light sensor and the thermistor locations on the EVM
are shown in Section 2.
The thermistor temperature measurement may not reach the true skin temperature, because some of
the heat dissipates into the EVM.
The light sensor reading value does not increase in the presence of extra light (for example, if you
shine a flashlight on it), because of design reasons with the light sensor selected for this EVM.
However, the light sensor shows a change for reduced light. Note that the light sensor on the Sensor
Hub BoosterPack plug-in module does not have this same limitation.
5.3 Using the PC Application for Advanced Custom Control of the RF430FRL152HEVM
This section describes how to set up the RF430FRL152HEVM for a custom sampling process. The
example used here describes how to perform sampling of three sensors (reference, thermistor, and light
sensor) with four passes at a rate of one sample per second. Various ADC configurations are made using
the "Sensor Config." tab. This is a simple demonstration, and you can create more complex sampling
processes and control as needed.
1. Follow the steps in Section 5.1 to start the PC application and connect to the TRF7970AEVM.
2. In the "Setup" tab, make sure that "Without Sensor Hub BoosterPack" and "RF430FRL152HEVM" are
selected.
3. On the "Sensor Config." tab, for the reference and thermistor group boxes (near the top of the tab),
make the following settings: gain of 2, filter type of CIC filter, oversampling of 256. When gain of 2 is
used, the thermistor and reference input voltage does not use most of the analog voltage range. The
CIC filter allows for shorter conversion times (using 256 oversampling).

4. For the light sensor configuration, select gain of 1, CIC filter, and oversampling of 256.
5. Also on the same group boxes, select "Use Virtual Ground". Virtual ground allows the ADC module
and inputs to be raised above ground voltage by several hundred mV. Raising the ground allows the
ADC to more accurately measure voltages near ground. This setting must be chosen, because the
RF430FRL152HEVM was designed with virtual ground powering the thermistor and light sensors (the
SVSS pin is the virtual ground).
6. Figure 18 shows the "Sensor Config." tab with these settings.
Figure 18. Custom Sensor Configuration Tab
7. Click the "Write only this tab" button on the bottom of the tab.
8. Go to the "Gen. Device Config" tab, and select the "Reference/ADC1", "Thermistor/ADC2", "Using
Thermistor", and "Light Sensor" options in the "Sensor Control Register" group box. These settings
determine which sensors are selected to be sampled.
9. Set "Number of Passes Register" to 4. This causes four sampling passes. A pass is sampling each of
the selected sensors in the "Sensor Control Register" once, in the order that they are selected.
10. Set "Frequency Register" to the "Every Second" option. This setting causes the selected delay to
occur between sampling processes.
11. Check "Start Sampling Process".
12. Figure 19 shows the "Gen. Device Config" tab with these settings.

16. When data is available, go to the "View Sensor Data" tab and click the "Read Logged Data" button.
The GUI reads the logged data from the EVM and displays it (see Figure 20). This logged data is not
designed to be human-readable. However, one use case of this function is to show the correlation and
order of data to the sensor that took that data. In the logged data memory, the sensor that took that
sample is not given and must be determined based on the configuration of the settings. However, the
GUI shows which sensor is sampled and the expected order.
