5 Interfaces
5.1 Powering the Development Board
The board can be powered either from USB or from a coin cell battery. Absolute maximum battery voltage is
3.6V. USB or battery can be chosen with SW1. When switching to battery, the RS232 transceiver is disabled
because of its high current consumption. When using battery, the current measurement should also be
switched off to avoid excessive leakage current to the instrumentation amplifier U2. To minimize the leakage
currents the display, accelerometer and the potentiometer can be turned off and disconnected from the
module by SW2, SW5 and SW6.
5.2 USB
The board operates as a bus powered USB device.
5.3 RS232
The board operates as a DTE (data terminal equipment). Because of high peak currents of the RS232
transceiver, RS232 can only be used when powering the board from USB. When switching to battery the
RS232 transceiver is automatically disabled. RS232 can also be disabled and enabled by SW3. When the
RS232 transceiver is disabled all of its outputs are set to high impedance state and UART can be used
through the pin header.
5.4 Accelerometer and the Display
The accelerometer and the display share the same SPI interface. The display is selected by taking the chip
select signal low and the accelerometer is chosen by taking the chip select signal high. A charge pump
generates 3.3V supply voltage for the display.
5.5 Programming Interface
Programming interface is in J11.

5.6 Pin Header and Buttons
All the PIOs are available and permanently connected in the pin header J2. In order to use certain PIOs
through the pin header, that particular PIO must be disconnected from the device to which it is connected so
that it is not actively driven by two devices. Following table shows the PIO connections in the evaluation
board.

6 Measuring Current Consumption
The current consumption of the module can only be measured when powering the module from USB. When
powering from a battery, the current consumption should be disconnected with SW12. The current
consumption of BLE112 is measured over 3 ohm resistor using an instrumentation amplifier with a gain of 10.
The instrumentation amplifier is powered from USB 5V line and the DC bias is from the 3V3 LDO. Because
the amplifier is powered from the USB VBUS, it can’t be used unless USB is connected. If USB is not
connected then the instrumentation amplifier must be disconnected by SW12 to avoid excessive leakage
current into the input of the amplifier.

Figure 11: TX current measurement amplifier
To measure the TX current consumption of the module, connect a coaxial cable to the BNC connector in the
board and to an oscilloscope. Set the oscilloscope
Coupling: DC
Vertical scale 500 mV/DIV
Horizontal scale: 200 µs/DIV
Level: 2.5 V
Offset: -2.0 V
Trigger: Normal, falling edge
The instrumentation amplifier inverts the signal. The current co nsumption is calculated by

The DC current consumption of the whole board can be measured by connecting a current meter to header J8
if powering from USB or J9 if powering from a battery.
