SY021-PCB

Overview

The Kallisto® SY021-PCB is a compact sensor module which can be used for application integration as standalone module or assembled on a mezzanine using the Bottom LGA pads. The platform module is delivered with a Zephyr based firmware which makes the system functions accessible over Bluetooth LE. With the mobile Toolbox App or Python library the module can be used instantly to configure sensors and stream sensor data. A gateway solution is available with partners. Additional functionality is integrated by request and can be purchased from Sensry. Please refer to service@sensry.de for additional information.

The module is able to acquire 20 sensors and control 4 actuators outputs to support a variety of applications. Additionally, there is an extension header to add additional sensors or periphery to board.

Integrated Sensors

In its standard configuration, the Kallisto® sensor platform is equipped with a set of rigidly attached sensor components which facilitate the simultaneous detection of 20 different measurands at sampling rates which can be individually configured even after shipment. Optionally, additional sensor components can be connected to the SY021-PCB by making use of its multiple I/O interfaces. The integration in the firmware can be purchased from Sensry GmbH. This flexibility enables a customization according to customer requirements and application needs.

Electrical Parameters

The PCB module can be powered over USB-C, Qi Charger or LiPo-battery. The board system voltage to power the SoC and periphery is 1.8V.

Board Power & Battery Charge

Rechargeable LiPo-batteries can be purchased separately from Sensry. The standard capacities are 150 mAh, 500 mAh and 1900mAh, other capacities are available on request.

There are different possibilities to power the board:

  • USB (w/ or w/o battery)
  • LGA pads (+5V, VBAT or regulated 1.8V)
  • LiPo battery (on battery connector or LGA pad)

To recharge the battery, the board must be powered either with 5V (USB or 5V LGA pad) or via Qi Charge Coil and a standard Qi charge transmitter.

For wireless charging, a receiver coil must be assembled to the LGA pins AC1 and AC2. The recommendation is a TDK WR222230-26M8-G coil:

Any standard Qi smartphone charger can be used to charge the module. The receiver coil must be place close (< 1 mm) to the Qi charger.

Battery Interface

The LiPo battery must include a 10kOhm NTC.

Extension Interface

The extension interface is equipped with the 10-pin Molex Pico-Lock-Connector 504050-1091 and allows to extend the sensor module with periphery. Molex provide several cable assemblies (MOLEX 15132100x) as a board-to-board connector. The Pinout is described in the following table.

Ship Mode Activation / Deactivation

The ship mode allows to switch off / Shut-down the device completely while the battery is still connected. It isolates the battery and reduces the quiescent current. The ship mode is designed for transportation and long-term storage. Two LGA pads are available to trigger & control the mode externally.

The ship mode can be activated using the SHPACT LGA pin on the bottom side. While the battery is connected and the USB or Qi Power is disconnected (no battery charge), this pin must be tied to HIGH (> 1.1V) for minimum period of 200 ms. Alternatively, the SHPACT pin is connected to an internal Microcontroller pin, so the mode can be activated by firmware.

To deactivate t ship mode, there are two ways: Either connect the USB plug to apply 5V power source or tie SHPHLD LGA pin low (< 0.4 V) for a minimum period of 200 ms.
