About this demo This demo is based on the Wireless UART example from the SDK available on Welcome | MCUXpresso SDK Builder selecting the QN908X board.  The main idea of this demo is to be able to send commands from one device to another, it could be from a QN9080DK, a phone using our NXP application: IoT Toolbox or even an FRDM-KW41Z, this is possible because of the BLE protocol used in all our devices. The end-device used is a QN9080DK, this board receives the message, does parsing and triggers a PWM function using the values sent from another device. This signal can be used in different applications, typically controlling smart lighting brightness and color, speed of motor controls and audio or video amplifiers. The goal of this demo is to implement a task for our FreeRTOS scheduler in order to be able to control a PWM while the BLE connection is still running and receive new incoming messages.   Video Limitations We only interpret ON, OFF and a string of values for our 3 signal outputs. The string of values has to be in the following syntax: rXXX,gXXX,bXXX. An example of this could be r255,g130,b200. The max value should be 255 in order to achieve 100% of the duty cycle, for this example, we are using is at 100 Hz. The connection is not using pairing or bonding modes, so no device information is saved on the non-volatile memory due to this if the connection is lost we need to follow the initial connection procedure. The amount of bytes that can be sent is limited by the macro: #define gAttMaxMtu_c in the ble_constants.h file from the project, we recommend to leave it as it is.   Useful Links Useful documentation is available in the SDK previously downloaded: <SDK Installation folder>...\SDK_2.2.1_QN908XCDK\docs   Link Description https://www.nxp.com/webapp/Download?colCode=QN908x-DK  QN908xDK User’s Guide Welcome | MCUXpresso SDK Builder  SDK Builder site Wireless Connectivity  NXP Wireless Community Connectivity Software: Implement tickless mode in FreeRTOS  Document for implementing a new task using OSA Abstraction layer of FreeRTOS https://www.nxp.com/docs/en/nxp/data-sheets/QN908x.pdf QN908x Datasheet for pins functions   Required Items Link Description QN908x: Ultra-Low-Power Bluetooth Low Energy System on Chip (SoC) Solution | NXP  It is required at least one as an end-point. Oscilloscope  An Oscilloscope to visualize the PWM. Hardware Diagram Step-by-Step Guide Download de QN908x SDK Download the attached .zip file. Import it into MCUXpresso, for the end node you should only use the qn908xcdk_wireless_uart_peripheral project. If you want to use a second QN board to send the commands it is required to also import the qn908xcdk_wireless_uart_central project. Once the projects are imported, we need to flash each board with a project and connect the PA9, PA10, and PA18 pins to our oscilloscope in order to visualize the signal. Connect the USB cables to the computer and open Teraterm with the following values: 115200, 8 bits, none,1 bit, none. Press the RESET Button (SW3) of the Peripheral board Press the Button1 (SW1) after the message: "Wireless UART starting as GAP Peripheral, press the role switch to change it.", an "Advertising" should appear. If a second QN board is used (central), we need to open a second Teraterm session and set it to the same Serial configurations from point 5. If an Android phone is used we need to have the IoT Toolbox application installed and select the Wireless UART example and connect to the Peripheral board using the interface. To pair the Central board to the Peripheral it is required to press the RESET Button (SW3) of the Central board while the Peripheral board is advertising and then Push the Button1 (SW1). Once the boards are connected, we need to paste the message to our terminal in order to be sent as one message. The message should be seen in the other board terminal. Send "ON" to activate the PWM functionality. Send "r255,g128,b64" to set the PWM pins to 100%, 50%, 25%. This signal must be displayed at 100Hz on the oscilloscope. Send "OFF" to deactivate the PWM functionality.   Further Information The Demo is based on the Wireless UART example, The BleApp_ReceivedUartStream function is modified to compare de received strings. The getValuesRGB converts the string into integer values to be assigned to the global variables red, green, blue. Inside getValuesRGB we use the OSA abstraction layer for FreeRTOS to create the task using: OSA_TaskCreate and creating the task named: vfnTaskPWM. vfnTaskPWM configures the timer and initializes the PWM values using the CTimer driver functions and starts the CTimers.     Results 1. After the QN9080 is flashed and in Advertising mode, we have to connect our Central device, Which in this case is an Android phone. In or Teraterm we should be able to see this message: 2. Then, we get the Connected status from our devices and we should be able to send the ON command and the RGB values, Teraterm indicates the integer values and the string received.         3. When we send the OFF command the PWM signals should be 0 V.   4. Here is another example:

Description Earlier this year NXP organized a promotional opportunity for amateur radio enthusiasts to use their creativity and build their own power amplifier designs. NXP received numerous creative submissions in this competitive Homebrew RF Design Challenge. We appreciate the dedication and enthusiasm from the community that made this contest a success. First place winner An MRF101AN broadband amplifier design with 1 W Input, 100 W Output 1.8-54 MHZ Amplifier deck. (For more information visit:NXP MRF-101 - RFPowerTools )  It is an amplifier with a bandwidth of 1.8MHz to 54MHz. Maximum output power of 100W up to 30MHz and 70W up to 50MHz. Maximum power supply 50V to 4A, with a Voltage Standing Wave Ratio of 1.5:1 maximum. The design dimensions of the PCB is 5x5 cm (2x2 in). and 310g weight including fan and heat sink. Second place winner A 600W broadband HF amplifier using affordable LDMOS devices (For more information visit: https://qrpblog.com/2019/10/a-600w-broadband-hf-amplifier-using-affordable-ldmos-devices/  ) This project is meant to demonstrate the capabilities of the MRF300 transistors as linear broadband devices in the 2-50MHz range and to be used by radio amateurs as a starting point for a medium-high power amplifier. This is also my entry to the NXP Homebrew RF Design Challenge 2019. To achieve the target of 600W output while also minimizing the level of even-number harmonics, a “push-pull” configuration of two transistors is used. Luckily, the manufacturer made it easy to design the PCB layout for such a thing by offering two versions (the MRF300AN & MRF300BN) that have mirrored pinout. The common TO-247 package is used, with the source connected to the tab. Each individual MRF300 LDMOS transistor is specified at 330W output over a 1.8-250MHz working frequency range, a maximum 28dB of gain and over 70% efficiency. The recommended supply range is 30-50Vdc. By studying the specifications, it looks like with correct broadband matching and some operational safety margin we can get close to 600W output at a voltage of around 45V across a resonably large bandwidth; the aim is to cover 1.8 to 54MHz. Main challenges when designing this amplifier are related to achieving good input and output matching over the entire frequency range as well as maintaining high and flat gain. Good linearity and a low level of harmonic products are mandatory. As the TO-247 is not a package specifically designed for high-power RF, there are some challenges with thermal design and PCB layout as well. Information taken from the essay by the winner. Third place winner A High Efficiency Switchmode RF Amplifier using a MRF101AN LDMOS Device for a CubeSat Plasma Thruster (For more information visit: Research - SuperLab@Stanford ) The Class E amplifier utilizes the active device as a switch, operating in only cutoff (off) and saturated (on) conditions. This minimizes the overlap of voltage and current, reducing losses in the active device. To further reduce loss the Class E amplifier utilizes an inductively tuned resonant network to achieve zero voltage switching, bringing the voltage across the switch to zero before turn on, eliminating energy stored in the output capacitance of the active device that would otherwise be dissipated. This is achieved with an inductively tuned series resonant output filter.  In the Class E amplifier losses are almost entirely determined by the current conducted by the active device so a high drain impedance is desired to maximize efficiency. The drain impedance is ultimately limited by the voltage rating of the switch. For our desired output power of 40W and the maximum voltage rating of 133V for the MRF101AN this impedance is still less than 50 ohms, so a L match circuit is used to match the drain impedance to 50 ohms. The load network in our design provides a drain impedance of 15.4+12.8j. As the MRF101AN will operate in saturation a high drive level is desired. To eliminate the need for a preamplifier and allow for digital control, we use a high speed gate drive chip typically used in switch-mode power supplies, LMG1020, to drive the MRF101AN instead of a RF preamplifier. A resonant network is used to provide voltage gain at the fundamental and third harmonic, providing a quasi-square wave on the gate which helps insure the device remains in saturation. Conclusion It was a close call and highly competitive! Each participant had their own creative, unique and impressive way of displaying the capabilities of these new parts. NXP is always up for new design challenges. Ready for the next challenge?

Demo   Resonant Power Supply Video from IEEE.TV   The TEA19161T is a resonant / LLC half bridge converter and the TEA19162T is a PFC converter. Combining these two IC’s together with the SR controller TEA1995T at the secondary side results in a high efficient converter over the whole output power range. These demos show 2 examples of a resonant power supply; one with an output power of 240 W (12V / 20A), and another with an output power of 90 W (19.5V / 4.6A). Both showing a very low component count and small design. The resonant supplies operate in normal mode for high and medium power levels, in low power mode at medium and low power levels and in burst mode at (very) low power levels. Low power mode and burst mode operation provides a reduction of power losses, resulting in a higher efficiency at lower output power levels. Power levels for switching over from one mode to another mode can be selected by the end customer by adjusting component values. The efficiency at high power is well above 90%. No load power consumption is well below 75 mW. At 250mW output power the input power is only 360mW, which is well below the 500 mW required to be compliant with EUP lot6 power saving specification, soon becoming mandatory for consumer electronics sold in Europe.   Features: Full digital output voltage regulation and burst mode control Easy and low-cost application with cycle-by-cycle capacitive voltage control Very high efficiency over wide load range Special low power mode enabling high efficiency at 0–30% load Extremely low no-load stand-by power (< 75 mW), saves auxiliary supply cost ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________   Featured NXP Products:   Resonant power supply control IC|NXP GreenChip Synchronous Rectifier controller|NXP ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________   Desktop PC Supply. 12v, 20A (240W)                                                   Ultra Slim 90W Adaptor. 19.5V / 4.6A (90W)              C17
