- The RIIM SDK o Software development kit with application frameworks and tools for creating and uploading end applications to the RC18x2HP-IPM
- The IPM module o The IPM module can be configured as root, router or leaf node. As a root node it acts as the base of the mesh network. It can connect to an external network via ethernet or custom user application on other interfaces such as UART As a router node, it will be able to transport packets in the RIIM mesh network As a leaf node, it is not able to transport packets to other nodes except its parent. This mode uses the least amount of energy. o All modes supports customer ICI applications and external connections. Applications use the same RIIM Software Development Kit (SDK) for all node types.

- The bootloader
- The platform image
- Application image Platform image ICI application Application framework Interface, system and module drivers Protocols:
802.15.4 g/e, CoAP IPv6, UDP, DTLS Real Time Operating System (RTOS) Bootstrap loader(BSL) MCU / Wireless Tranceiver (HW) Figure 2. System overview The bootloader is preloaded from Radiocrafts. It allows the user to upload new platform images or unique application images. The bootloader also allows the user to program unique encryption keys into the device. These keys are not possible to read out. The bootloader uses the standard UART port and operates at 115200 baud. Note that the bootloader also leaves all GPIO in tristate mode at power up. If a specific application requires controlled high or low level during start up, an external pull-up/pull-down is mandatory. The platform image is the main firmware part and includes the operating system, network stacks, drivers and application frameworks. The newest revision will be available from Radiocrafts SDK download as an encrypted image. When downloading a new platform image through the bootloader, the image will be decrypted internally in the module. The application code space has available 32 kB of flash space and 8 kB of RAM. 2022 Radiocrafts AS Data sheet RC18x2HP-IPM (rev. 1.6
) Page 4 of 23 DATA SHEET RC18x2HP-IPM 7 Software Development Kit (SDK) RC18x2HP-IPM allows each user to write his own application with minimal time and effort. This is accomplished through an SDK, which consists of 3 key blocks Application builder Application Framework Bootloader utility Figure 3. Software Development Kit The application framework acts as the skeletal support to build an application. It abstracts the resources such that the developer does not need to dive into all the details of the processor, network stack or operating system. This consept is referred to as Intelligent C-programmable I/O (ICI). The application framework comes with a ready-made base application that the user can tailor to his needs. The tailoring is accomplished through defining events and writing the event handlers. The base application reduces the workload on the user and reduces test and validation time for each new application. For the developer the main interaction with the application framework is through an intuitive API, describing how the user can interface with the radio/network and high level drivers. See the document RIIM SDK User Manual and RIIM API Reference for details. In each event handler, the user can send and receive data through the different interfaces, access memory, invoke network function or even do complex data algorithms and data processing. Application builder is a set of free tools to generate the application image based on user's application code. Bootloader utlity is a free tool that allows secure uploading of application images to the module. It also allows writing of encryption keys in the module during production. More details on the application builder and the bootloader utility is given in RIIM SDK User Manual. 2022 Radiocrafts AS Data sheet RC18x2HP-IPM (rev. 1.6
) Page 5 of 23 DATA SHEET RC18x2HP-IPM 8 Intelligent C-programmable I/O (ICI) The ICI application is written in high-level C-language, using a powerful API that is available in the SDK. The API removes the need for the developer to understand the underlying architecture and resources in the module. In its simplest form, the ICI application is just configuring the radio network, the modules hardware interfaces and defining when to read and write to those interfaces. This can typically be done with less than 100 lines of code and within a few hours. Examples included in SDK are normally a good starting point. The ICI application also has the capability of including complex data processing and advanced features, such as averaging and threshold detection using one or many sensors in combination or to create complex sensor interfaces. The flash space available for the ICI application is 32 kB See the RIIM SDK User Manual, RIIM SDK API Reference and the RIIM SDK Quick Start documents for more information. Example : ICI code

If any routing or vias is required under the module, the routing and vias must be covered with solder resist to prevent short circuiting of the test pads. It is recommended that vias are tented. Reserved pins should be soldered to the pads, but the pads must be left floating electrically (no connection). Note that Radiocrafts technical support team is available for free-of-charge schematic- and layout review of your design. 25 Soldering Profile Recommendation JEDEC standard IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020D.1 (page 7 and 8), Pb-Free Assembly is recommended. The standard requires that the heat dissipated in the surroundings on the PCB is taken into account. The peak temperature should be adjusted so that it is within the window specified in the standard for the actual motherboard. Aperture for paste stencil is normally areal-reduced by 20-35%, please consult your production facility for best experience aperture reduction. Nominal stencil thickness of 0.1-0.12 mm recommended. 26 Absolute Maximum Ratings Parameter Supply voltage, VCC Voltage on any pin Min Max
