This document describes a simple process for enabling the user controls the radio through serial commands. Hardware requirements: • FRDM-KW41Z/QN902x board or a board programmed with HCI black box application. Software requirements: • Test Tool 12 application. It can be downloaded from the NXP web page. • HCI Black Box binary.   Running Demo 1. Load the board with hci_black_box example. 2. Open the Test Tool 12 software 3. Set up the correct Serial Configuration. If there were no changes in the application the default configuration will correspond to the one showed in the following figure. 4. Double click on the active device that you want to test, this will open the COM port in the command console. 5. Set the command set to the BLE_HCI.xml. This file has a list of the HCI commands that the user can send to the device, some of the commands have some options to be configured if necessary or some data to be filled. 6. To make easier the use of frequent commands, there is the option to add a shortcut to the command and the chosen behavior will be added to the panel. 7. Once you add the shortcut or choose the command or your preference, just double click over it and the tool will send the command to the device. In this case, we will send a reset on the board, this command does not receive any extra parameters, data or need any extra configuration.   8. If successful there will be a response or acknowledge of the behavior that will be shown in the right panel. Hope it helps. Regards, Mario

Introduction HCI Application is a Host Controller Interface application which provides a serial communication to interface with the KW40/KW41/KW35/KW36/QN9080 BLE radio part. It enables the user to have a way to control the radio through serial commands. The format of the HCI Command Packet it’s composed of the following parts:     Each command is assigned a 2 byte Opcode which it’s divided into two fields, called the OpCode Group Field (OGF) and OpCode Command Field (OCF). The OGF uses the upper 6 bits of the Opcode, while the OCF corresponds to the remaining 10 bits. The OGF of 0x3F is reserved for vendor-specific debug commands. The organization of the opcodes allows additional information to be inferred without fully decoding the entire Opcode. For further information regarding this topic, please check the BLUETOOTH SPECIFICATION Version 5.0 | Vol 2, Part E, 5.4 EXCHANGE OF HCI-SPECIFIC INFORMATION.   Adding HCI Custom Commands Example This document will guide you through the implementation of custom HCI commands in the KW36. For this example, we will include the following set of custom commands: 01 50 FC 00 – This command is to send a continuous unmodulated wave using a defined channel and output power (default: frequency 2.402GHz and PA_POWER register set to 0x3E).  01 4F FC 00 – This command is to stop the continuous unmodulated wave and configure the radio in Bluetooth LE mode again. This way you can continue sending adopted HCI commands. 01 00 FC 00 – Set the Channel 0 Freq 2402 MHz 01 01 FC 00 – Set the Channel 19 Freq 2440 MHz 01 02 FC 00 – Set the Channel 39 Freq 2480 MHz 01 10 FC 00 – Set the PA_POWER 1 01 11 FC 00 – Set the PA_POWER 32 01 12 FC 00 – Set the PA_POWER 62 The changes described in the following sections were based on the HCI Black Box SDK example (it is located at wireless_examples -> bluetooth -> hci_bb)   Changes in hci_transport.h The "hci_transport.h" file is located at bluetooth->hci_transport->interface folder.

Introduction When a Bluetooth LE Central and Peripheral devices are in connection, data within the payload can be encrypted. Encryption of the channel can be achieved through pairing with others. Once the communication has been encrypted, the Bluetooth LE devices could distribute the keys to save it for future connections. The last is better known as bonding. When two Bluetooth LE devices are bonded, in a future connection, they do not need to exchange the keys since they already know the shared secret, thus, they can encrypt the channel directly, saving time and power. However, if an attacker is listening to the first time that both (Central and Peripheral) Bluetooth LE devices enter into a connection state, the security of the link could be vulnerated, since the attacker could decipher the original message. Fortunately, Out Of Band (OOB) provides the ability (obviously, if both devices support it) to share the keys on an unknown medium for an attacker listening Bluetooth LE (for instance, NFC, SPI, UART, CAN, etc), increasing the security of the communication. This document explains how to enable OOB pairing on Bluetooth LE connectivity examples, basing on FRDM-KW36 SDK HID Host and HID Device examples.   Dedicated Macros and APIs for OOB Pairing The connectivity software stack contains macros and APIs that developers should implement to interact with the host stack and handle the events necessary for OOB. The following sections explain the main macros, variables, and APIs that manage OOB in our software.   Definitions and Variables gAppUsePairing_d It is used to enable or disable pairing to encrypt the link. Values Result 0 Pairing Disabled 1 Pairing Enabled   gAppUseBonding_d It is used to enable or disable bonding to request and save the keys for future connections. Values Result 0 Bonding Disabled 1 Bonding Enabled   gBleLeScOobHasMitmProtection_c This flag must be set if the application requires Man In the Middle protection, in other words, if the link must be authenticated. You can determine whether your software needs to set or clear this flag from the GAP Security Mode and Level. Red instances of the following table indicate that gBleLeScOobHasMitmProtection_c must be set to 1.   gPairingParameters This struct contains the pairing request or the pairing response (depending on the device's GAP role) payload. To enable and configure OOB pairing, oobAvailable field of the struct must be set to 1.   APIs bleResult_t Gap_ProvideOob (deviceId_t deviceId, uint8_t* aOob) This API must be implemented in response of gConnEvtOobRequest_c event in BleConnManager_GapPeripheralEvent or BleConnManager_GapCentralEvent functions (depending of the GAP role). This event only will be triggered if OOB is enabled and LE Legacy pairing is used. The gConnEvtOobRequest_c event occurs when the stack request the OOB data received from the peer device just after the gConnEvtPairingRequest_c or gConnEvtPairingResponse_c (depending of the GAP role). This API is valid only for LE Legacy pairing. Name of the Parameter Input/Output Description deviceId Input ID of the peer device aOob Input Pointer to OOB data previously received from the peer.   bleResult_t Gap_LeScGetLocalOobData (void) This API must be implemented either in response of gConnEvtPairingRequest_c or gConnEvtPairingResponse_c events  in BleConnManager_GapPeripheralEvent or BleConnManager_GapCentralEvent functions (depending of the GAP role) to get the local OOB data generated from the controller and in response of gLeScPublicKeyRegenerated_c event at BleConnManager_GenericEvent. Each time that Gap_LeScGetLocalOobData is executed in the application to obtain the OOB data, it triggers the gLeScLocalOobData_c generic event to inform that OOB data must be read from pGenericEvent->eventData.localOobData to send it to the peer device. This API is valid only for LE Secure Connections pairing.   bleResult_t Gap_LeScSetPeerOobData (deviceId_t deviceId, gapLeScOobData_t* pPeerOobData) This API must be implemented in response of gConnEvtLeScOobDataRequest_c event in BleConnManager_GapPeripheralEvent or BleConnManager_GapCentralEvent functions(depending of the GAP role). This event occurs when the stack requires the OOB data previously recieved from the peer. This API is valid only for LE Secure Connections pairing. Name of the Parameter Input/Output Description deviceId Input ID of the peer device aOob Input Pointer to gapLeScOobData_t struct that contains the OOB data received from the peer.   Enabling OOB on KW36 Bluetooth LE Peripheral Device The following example is based on the HID Device software included in the FRDM-KW36 SDK. It explains the minimum code needed to enable OOB. In the following sections, brown color indicates that such definition or API takes part in the stack and violet color indicates that such definition does not take part in the stack and its use is only for explanation purposes in this document.   Changes in app_preinclude.h file The app_preinclude.h header file contains definitions for the management of the application. To enable OOB pairing, you must ensure that gAppUseBonding_d and gAppUsePairing_d are set to 1. You can also set the value of the gBleLeScOobHasMitmProtection_c in this file, depending on the security mode and level needed in your application.  This example makes use of two custom definitions: gAppUseOob_d and gAppUseSecureConnections_d. Such definitions are used to explain how to enable/disable OOB and, if OOB is enabled, how to switch between LE Secure Connections pairing or LE Legacy paring.   /*!

In this example, gOobReceivedTKDataFromPeer is an array that stores the data previously received OOB from the peer device (using SPI, UART, I2C, etc), therefore, the procedure to fill this array with the data received from the peer depends entirely on your application. Notice that gOobReceivedTKDataFromPeer must contain the data received from the peer before to execute Gap_ProvideOob.   static uint8_t gOobReceivedTKDataFromPeer[16]; void BleConnManager_GapPeripheralEvent(deviceId_t peerDeviceId, gapConnectionEvent_t* pConnectionEvent) { switch (pConnectionEvent->eventType) { case gConnEvtConnected_c: { ... ... ... } break; ... ... ... #if (gAppUseOob_d && !gAppUseSecureConnections_d) case gConnEvtOobRequest_c: { /* The stack has requested the LE Legacy OOB data*/ (void)Gap_ProvideOob(peerDeviceId, &gOobReceivedTKDataFromPeer[0]); } break; #endif ... ... ... } }‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍     LE Secure Connections Pairing When using Secure Connections Pairing, the application must handle two events at the BleConnManager_GapPeripheralEvent function. In gConnEvtPairingRequest_c event, you must implement Gap_LeScGetLocalOobData API to generate the local (r, Cr) values. The gConnEvtLeScOobDataRequest_c event indicates that the application is requesting the (r, Cr) values previously received OOB from the peer device (using SPI, UART, I2C, etc). Such values are contained into gOobReceivedRandomValueFromPeer and gOobReceivedConfirmValueFromPeer buffers.

In this example, Oob_SendLocalRandomValueToPeer and Oob_SendLocalConfirmValueToPeer  are custom synchronous functions that demonstrate how you can implement a custom API that sends the local (r, Cr) read from pGenericEvent->eventData.localOobData pointer to the peer device using other protocols (SPI, UART, I2C, etc).   void BleConnManager_GenericEvent(gapGenericEvent_t* pGenericEvent) { switch (pGenericEvent->eventType) { case gInitializationComplete_c: { ... ... ... } break; ... ... ... #if (defined(gAppUsePairing_d) && (gAppUsePairing_d == 1U)) case gLeScPublicKeyRegenerated_c: { /* Key pair regenerated -> reset pairing counters */ mFailedPairings = mSuccessfulPairings = 0; /* Local LE Secure Connections OOB data must be refreshed whenever this event occurs */ #if (gAppUseOob_d && gAppUseSecureConnections_d) (void)Gap_LeScGetLocalOobData(); #endif } break; #endif ... ... ... #if (gAppUseOob_d && gAppUseSecureConnections_d) case gLeScLocalOobData_c: { /* Get the local LE Secure Connections OOB data and send to the peer */ Oob_SendLocalRandomValueToPeer((uint8_t*)pGenericEvent->eventData.localOobData.randomValue); Oob_SendLocalConfirmValueToPeer((uint8_t*)pGenericEvent->eventData.localOobData.confirmValue); } break; #endif ... ... ... } }‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍     Simplified Flow Diagram of OOB Central and Peripheral Events LE Legacy Pairing The following figure shows a simplified flow diagram of the LE Legacy OOB pairing example in this document. The LE Central device is the one that contains the OOB TK data that will be shared OOB using the custom Oob_SendLocalTKValueToPeer function. It must be implemented at the gConnEvtPairingResponse_c event to ensure that both devices know the OOB TK before to execute Gap_ProvideOob since this function requests this data. If the OOB data is correct on both sides, the pairing procedure ends, and it is noticed through gConnEvtPairingComplete_c. LE Secure Connections Pairing The following figure shows a simplified flow diagram of the LE Secure Connections OOB pairing example in this document. After both devices enter in connection, the data that will be shared OOB using the custom Oob_SendLocalRandomValueToPeer and Oob_SendLocalConfirmValueToPeer  functions is yielded by Gap_LeScGetLocalOobData on both sides. The last one must be implemented at gConnEvtPairingResponse_c and gConnEvtPairingRequest_c events to ensure that both devices know the Peripheral and Central (r, Cr) OOB data before to execute Gap_LeScSetPeerOobData since this function requests this data. If the OOB data is correct on both sides, the pairing procedure ends, and it is noticed through gConnEvtPairingComplete_c. This is how OOB pairing can be implemented in your project. I hope this document will be useful to you. Please, let us know any questions or comments.

Introduction This document is a quick start guide to load a new software image in a KW36 device through FSCI (Freescale Serial Communication Interface) bootloader software. Also, it contains all the steps needed to install the software required in a Windows host to handle the FSCI communication protocol. Software Requirements IAR Embedded Workbench IDE or MCUXpresso IDE. FRDM-KW36 SDK. Hardware Requirements FRDM-KW36 board. Downloading the SDK When downloading the SDK, select your specific IDE or simply choose all toolchains as shown below. In the option "Add software component", ensure to select all middleware components as depicted below. Installing FSCI Host in Windows OS The host software for the Windows OS was designed to work in a Python environment. The following steps are to download and install the software needed to use FSCI in a Windows OS. Visit the Python web site and download the latest Python 2.7.x MSI installer package for Windows OS. Open the MSI installer package. When customizing the installation options, check "Add python.exe to Path" as shown below Complete the rest of the steps for the Python installation process. Unzip the FRDM-KW36 SDK. Depending on your Python environment architecture, copy the HSDK.dll from <SDK_root>\tools\wireless\host_sdk\sdk-python\lib\<x86_or_x64> to <Python_directory>\DLLs (default in C:\Python27\DLLs). Download and install Visual C++ Redistributable Packages for Microsoft Visual Studio 2013 depending on the Windows architecture (vcredist_x86.exe or vcredist_x64.exe) from the Microsoft web site. Download and install the Microsoft Visual C++ Compiler for Python 2.7 from the following web site. To run Python scripts from the Command Prompt of Windows, we must create a system variable named PYTHONPATH. Search “System” in the Windows browser. Go to Advanced system settings -> Environment Variables… -> System variables. Click on the “New…” button and create the PYTHONPATH variable with the following value: <SDK_root>\tools\wireless\host_sdk\hsdk-python\src. Programming the FSCI bootloader on FRDM-KW36 board Attach the FRDM-KW36 board to your PC. Drag and drop the “bootloader_fsci_frdmkw36.bin” from the previously unzipped SDK file, you can find this file in: <SDK_root>\tools\wireless\binaries to your board. Like a common USB device. Creating a binary image to reprogram the device   IAR Embedded Workbench Open the connectivity project that you want to program through the FSCI bootloader from your SDK. This example will make use of the heart rate sensor project, located at the following path: <SDK_root>\boards\frdmkw36\wireless_examples\bluetooth\hrs\freertos\iar\hrs_freertos.eww. Open the project options window (Alt+F7). In Linker -> Config window, edit the “Configuration file symbol definitions” add the “gUseBootloaderLink_d=1” linker flag as shown below. Go to the “Output Converter” window and ensure that the output file is in binary format (.bin), otherwise, deselect the “Override default” checkbox, expand the “Output format” combo box and select “Raw binary. Click the OK button. Rebuild the project. The binary will be saved at: <SDK_root>\boards\frdmkw36\wireless_examples\bluetooth\hrs\freertos\iar\debug   MCUXpresso IDE Import your FRDM-KW36 SDK to MCUXpresso. Drag and drop your SDK on the "installed SDK's" toolbar. (In this step, it is not necessary to unzip the package). Open any connectivity project that you want to program through the FSCI bootloader from your SDK. This example will make use of the heart rate sensor project. Go to Project -> Properties, a new window will appear. Then, open the C/C++ Build -> Settings -> Linker -> Miscellaneous. Press the icon below, a new window will be deployed. Add “--defsym=gUseBootloaderLink_d=1”. Click on “Apply and Close”. Build the project. Deploy the “Binaries” icon in the workspace. Click the right mouse button on the “.axf” file. Select “Binary Utilities -> Create binary” option. The binary file will be saved at “Debug” folder in the workspace with “.bin” extension. Reprogramming an FRDM-KW36 board using the FSCI bootloader The following steps are to test the FSCI bootloader in a Windows OS. Search "Command Prompt" in the Windows browser. Run the "fsci_bootloader.py" Python script. Type the “python.exe” path in the console (default C:\Python27\python.exe). Drag and drop the “fsci_bootloader.py” from: <SDK_root>\tools\wireless\host_sdk\hsdk-python\src\com\nxp\wireless_connectivity\test\bootloader on the command prompt screen. Search the COM Port of your FRDM-KW36 board and type in the console. You can find it typing ‘Device manager’ from windows home and then search it in Ports (COM & LPT) toolbar. As you can see in this example the port may change depending on each case. Search the binary image file (created in the last section). Drag and drop on the screen. Press “Enter” to start the firmware update trough FSCI bootloader. Automatically the KW36 device will trigger to run the new software. To see all your process running, you can download the ‘IoT Toolbox’ from the app store to your smartphone and connect your device with the board to verify the random data that the heart rate sensor example generates.

Introduction This document provides guidance to load a new software image in a KW35 device through OTAP (Over The Air Programming) bootloader for KW35. This article also provides the steps needed to download and install the SDK used in the tutorial. Software Requirements IAR Embedded Workbench IDE or MCUXpresso IDE. SDK MKW36A512xxx4 RC4 or further. Hardware Requirements MKW35A512xxx4 device. KW35 Flash Memory Used for the OTAP Software Deployment The KW35 Flash is partitioned into: 2x256 KB Program Flash (P-Flash) array divided into 2 KB sectors with a flash address range from 0x0000_0000 to 0x0007_FFFF.     The statements to comprehend how the OTAP Client software and his features works are: The OTAP Client software is split into two parts, the OTAP bootloader and the OTAP client service. The OTAP bootloader verifies if there is a new image already available to reprogram the device. The OTAP client service software provides the Bluetooth LE custom services needed to communicate with the server that contains the new image file. Therefore, before to start the test, the device has been programmed twice, first with the OTAP bootloader then with the OTAP client service project. The mechanism used to have two different software in the same device is to store each one in different memory regions and this is implemented by the linker file. In the KW35 device, the bootloader application has reserved a 16KB slot of memory starting from the 0x0 address (0x0 to 0x3FFF) thus, the left memory of the first P-Flash memory bank is reserved, among other things, by the OTAP client service application.   To create a new image file for the client device, the developer needs to specify to the linker file that the code will be stored with an offset of 16KB since the first addresses are reserved for the bootloader. At connection event, the server sends all the chunks of code to the client via Bluetooth LE. The client stores the code at the second P-Flash memory bank but is not able to run yet.   When the broadcast has finished, and all chunks were sent, the OTAP bootloader detects this situation and triggers a command to reprogram the device with the new application. Due the new application was built with an offset of 16KB, the OTAP bootloader program the device starting from the 0x3FFF address and the OTAP client service application is overwritten by the new image. Then the OTAP bootloader triggers the new application, starting the execution of the code.   Software Development Kit download and install   Go to MCUXpresso web page. Log in with your registered account. Search for “MKW36A” device. Then click on the suggested processor and click on “Build MCUXpresso SDK” The next page is displayed.

Hello everyone, Over The Air Programming (OTAP) NXP's custom Bluetooth LE service provides the developer a solution to upgrade the software that the MCU contains. It removes the need for cables and a physical link between the OTAP client (the device that is reprogrammed) and the OTAP server (the device that contains the software update). This post explains how to run the OTAP Client Software that comes within the FRDM-KW36 package: Reprogramming a KW36 device using the OTAP Client Software. As it is mentioned in the last post, the OTAP Client can reprogram the KW36 while it is running, with new software using Bluetooth LE. However, this implementation for most of the applications is not enough since once you have reprogrammed the new image, the KW36 can not be reprogramed a second time using this method. For these applications that require to be updated many times using Bluetooth LE during run-time, we have created the following application note, that comes with a functional example of how to implement the OTAP Client software, taking advantage of this service. You can download the software clicking on the link in blue and the documentation is in the link in green. Please visit the following link: DOCUMENTS and Application Notes for KW36 In the "DOCUMENTS" section, you can found more information of the KW36. In the "Application Note" section, you can found more software and documentation of interesting topics like this.        Best Regards.

Introduction This document describes the hardware considerations for the schematic and layout of the MKW36A512VFT4 device. This MCU is packaged into a 48-pin HVQFN - 7x7 mm, dissimilar to MKW36Z512VHT4 which comes packaged into a 48-pin LQFN - 7x7 mm (the last one takes part of FRDM-KW36).   Pin Layout  The MKW36A512VFT4 MCU is pin to pin compatible with the MKW36Z512VHT4 (FRDM-KW36) MCU, except for the DCDC pins. The following figure shows the distribution of the pins in the MKW36A512VFT4 MCU (left), compared with the MKW36Z512VHT4 (FRDM-KW36 MCU, right). Surely, this is the most important consideration for MKW36A512VFT4, since you can not simply move the FRDM-KW36 layout on your design. Minimum BOM The following figures show the minimum BOM necessary for each DCDC mode in KW36. For more information about DCDC modes and hardware guidelines, please visit: MKW4xZ/3xZ/3xA/2xZ DC-DC Power Management Bypass Mode   Buck Auto-Start Mode   Buck Manual-Start Mode     Layout Recommendations The footprint and layout are critical for RF performance, hence if the recommended design is followed exactly in the RF region of the PCB, sensitivity, output power, harmonic and spurious radiation, and range, you will succeed. For more information of layout recommendations, please visit Hardware Design Considerations for MKW35A/36A/35Z/36Z Bluetooth Low Energy Devices. The footprint recommended for the MKW36A512VFT4 is shown in the figure below. NXP prefers to use a top layer thickness of no less than 8-10 mils. The use of a correct substrate like the FR4 with a dielectric constant of 4.3 will assist you in achieving a good RF design. Other recommendations during EMC certification stages are: - Specific attention must be taken on 4 pins PTC1, 2, 3 & 4 if they are used on the application. - 4 decoupling capacitors of 3pF are mandatory on those pins and be positioned as close as possible. - Wires from those 4 pins must be underlayer. - NXP recommends putting the vias under the package in case the customer HW design rules allow it. Some recommendations for a good Vdd_RF supply layout are: - Vdd_RF1 and Vdd_RF2 lines must have the same length as possible, linked to pointA (‘Y’ connection). - 12pF decoupling capacitor from Vdd_RF wire must be connected to the Ground Antenna. The purpose is to get the path as short as possible from Vdd_RF1/Vdd_RF2 to the ground antenna. - 12pF decoupling capacitor from the Vdd_RF3 pin must be as close as possible. Return to ground must be as short as possible. So vias (2 in this below picture) must be placed near to the decoupling capacitor to get close connection to the ground layer. The recommended RF stage is shown in the following figure. The MKW36A512VFT4 has a single-ended RF output with a 2 components matching network composed of a shunt capacitor and a series inductor. Both elements transform the device impedance to 50 ohms. The value of these components may vary depending on your board layout. Avoid routing traces near or parallel to RF transmission lines or crystal signals. Maintain a continuous ground under an RF trace is critical to keep unaltered the characteristic impedance of the transmission line. Avoid routing on the ground layer that will result in disrupting the ground under RF traces. For more information about RF considerations please visit: Freescale IEEE 802.15.4 / ZigBee Package and Hardware Layout Considerations.

Introduction In some applications, is it necessary to keep updated the software running in many MCU's that take part in the system, fortunately, Over The Air Programming, it's a custom Bluetooth LE service developed to send "over the air" software updates for the KW MCU series. FRDM-KW36 SDK already provides the "otap_client" software, that can be used together with the "otap_bootloader" such as it is described in the following community post: Reprogramming a KW36 device using the OTAP Client Software to reprogram the KW36. This example can be modified to store code for another MCU and later send the software update to this device as depicted in the figure below. This post guides you on modifying the OTAP client software to support software updates for other MCU's. Preparing the OTAP client software The starting point of the following modifications is supposing that there is no need to perform over the air updates for the KW36 MCU, so the use of the "otap_bootloader" is obsolete and will be removed in this example. In other words, KW36 will be programmed only with the "otap_client" code. Open the MCUXpresso settings window (Project->Properties->"C/C++ Build->MCU settings") and configure the following fields. Save the changes. For external storage: For internal storage: Locate the "app_preinclude.h" file, and set the storage method, as follows: For external storage: #define gEepromType_d       gEepromDevice_AT45DB041E_c For internal storage: #define gEepromType_d        gEepromDevice_InternalFlash_c Locate the "main_text_section.ldt" linker script into the "linkscripts" folder, and delete it from the project.  Search in the project for "OTA_SetNewImageFlag();" and "ResetMCU();" functions in the "otap_client.c" file (source->common->otap_client->otap_client.c) and delete or comment. (For reference, there are 4 in total).

The handling your protocol can be integrated into the OTAP client code replacing "ResetMCU()" (The same code removed in step 4) in the code by "APISendSoftwareUpdateToMCUX()" for instance, since at this point the image was successfully sent over the air and stored in the memory of the KW36.

Introduction The FRDM-KW36 includes an RSIM (Radio System Integration Module) module with an external 32 MHz crystal oscillator. This clock source reference is mainly intended to supply the Bluetooth LE Radio peripheral, but it can be used as the main clock source of the MCU as well. This oscillator includes a set of programmable capacitors to support crystals with different load capacitance needs. Changing the value of these capacitors can modify the frequency the oscillator provides, that way, the central frequency can be tuned to meet the wireless protocol standards. This configurable capacitance range is from C1: 5.7pF - C2: 7.1pF to C1: 22.6pF - C2: 28.2pF and it is configured through the BB_XTAL_TRIM field at the ANA_TRIM. The KW36 comes preprogrammed with a default load capacitance value. However, since there is variance in devices due to tolerances and parasite effects, the correct load capacitance should be checked by verifying that the optimal central frequency is attained.  You will need a spectrum analyzer to measure the central frequency. To find the most accurate value for the load capacitance, it is recommended to use the Connectivity Test demo application. Adjusting Frequency Example Program the KW36 Connectivity Test software on the device. This example can be found in wireless_examples -> genfsk -> conn_test folder from your SDK package. Baremetal and FreeRTOS versions are available. In case that FRDM-KW36 board is being used to perform the test, you should move the 10pF capacitor populated in C55 to C57, to direct the RF signal on the SMA connector. Connect the board to a serial terminal software. When you start the application, you will be greeted by the NXP logo screen:  Press the enter key to start the test. Then press "1" to select "Continuous tests": Finally, select "6" to start a continuous unmodulated RF test. At this point, you should be able to measure the signal in the spectrum analyzer. You can change the RF channel from 0 to 127 ("q" Ch+ and "w" Ch- keys), which represents the bandwidth from 2.360GHz to 2.487GHz, stepping of 1MHz between two consecutive channels. To demonstrate the trimming procedure, this document will make use of channel 42 (2.402GHz) which corresponds to the Bluetooth LE channel 37. In this case, with the default capacitance value, our oscillator is not exactly placed at the center of the 2.402GHz, instead, it is slightly deflected to 2.40200155 GHz, as depicted in the following figure: The capacitance can be adjusted with the "d" XtalTrim+ and "f" XtalTrim- keys. Increasing the capacitance bank means a lower frequency. In our case, we need to increase the capacitance to decrease the frequency. The nearest frequency of 2.402 GHz was 2.40199940 GHz  Once the appropriate XTAL trim value has been found, it can be programmed as default in any Bluetooth LE example, changing the mXtalTrimDefault constant located in the board.c file: static const uint8_t mXtalTrimDefault‍ = 0x36;‍‍‍

Introduction The MTU (Maximum Transmission Unit) in Bluetooth LE, is an informational parameter that indicates to the remote device, the maximum number of bytes that the local can handle in such channel, for example, the ATT_MTU for KW36 is fixed in 247 bytes. A few applications require to have long characteristics defined in the GATT database, and sometimes the length of the characteristic exceeds the MTU negotiated by the client and server Bluetooth LE devices. For this scenario, the Bluetooth LE specification defines a procedure to write and read the characteristic of interest. In summary, it consists in perform multiple writes and reads on the same characteristic value, using specific commands. For the "write long characteristic value" procedure, these commands are ATT_PREPARE_WRITE_REQ and ATT_EXECUTE_WRITE_REQ. For the "read long characteristic value" procedure, these commands are ATT_READ_REQ and ATT_READ_BLOB_REQ. This document provides an example of how to write and read long characteristic values, from the perspective of Client and Server devices.   APIs to Write and Read Characteristic Values Write Characteristic Values The GattClient_WriteCharacteristicValue API is used to perform any write operation. It is implemented by the GATT Client device. The following table describes the input parameters. Input Parameters Description deviceId_t deviceId Device ID of the peer device. gattCharacteristic_t * pCharacteristic Pointer to a gattCharacteristic struct type. This struct must contain a valid handle of the characteristic value in the "value.handle" field. The handle of the characteristic value that you want to write is commonly obtained after the service discovery procedure.  uint16_t valueLength This value indicates the length of the array pointed by aValue. const uint8_t * aValue Pointer to an array containing the value that will be written to the GATT database. bool_t withoutResponse If true, it means that the application wishes to perform a "Write Without Response", in other words, when the command will be ATT_WRITE_CMD or ATT_SIGNED_WRITE_CMD. bool_t signedWrite If withoutResponse and signedWrite are both true, the command will be ATT_SIGNED_WRITE_CMD. If withoutResponse is false, this parameter is ignored. bool_t doReliableLongCharWrites This field must be set to true if the application needs to write a long characteristic value. const uint8_t * aCsrk If withoutResponse and signedWrite are both true, this pointer must contain the CSRK to sign the data. Otherwise, this parameter is ignored.   Read Characteristic Values The GattClient_ReadCharacteristicValue API is used to perform read operations. It is implemented by the GATT Client device. The following table describes the input parameters. Input Parameters Description deviceId_t deviceId Device ID of the peer device. gattCharacteristic_t * pIoCharacteristic Pointer to a gattCharacteristic struct type. This struct must contain a valid handle of the characteristic value in the "value.handle" field. The handle of the characteristic value that you want to write is commonly obtained after the service discovery procedure. As well, the "value.paValue" field of this struct, must point to an array which will contain the characteristic value read from the peer. unit16_t maxReadBytes The length of the characteristic value that should be read. This API takes care of the long characteristics, so there is no need to worry about a special parameter or configuration. The following sections provide a functional example of how to write and read long characteristics. This example was based on the temperature collector and temperature sensor SDK examples. The example also shows how to create a custom service at the GATT database and how to discover its characteristics.   Bluetooth LE Server (Temperature Sensor) Modifications in gatt_uuid128.h Define the 128 bit UUID of the "custom service" which will be used for this example. Add the following code: /* Custom service */ UUID128(uuid_service_custom, 0xE0, 0x1C, 0x4B, 0x5E, 0x1E, 0xEB, 0xA1, 0x5C, 0xEE, 0xF4, 0x5E, 0xBA, 0x00, 0x01, 0xFF, 0x01) UUID128(uuid_char_custom, 0xE0, 0x1C, 0x4B, 0x5E, 0x1E, 0xEB, 0xA1, 0x5C, 0xEE, 0xF4, 0x5E, 0xBA, 0x01, 0x01, 0xFF, 0x01)‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ Modifications in gatt_db.h Define the characteristics of the "custom service", for this example, our service will have just one characteristic, it can be written or read, and it has a variable-length limited to 400 bytes (remember that the ATT_MTU of KW36 is 247 byte, so with this length, we ensure long writes and reads). Add the following code: PRIMARY_SERVICE_UUID128(service_custom, uuid_service_custom) CHARACTERISTIC_UUID128(char_custom, uuid_char_custom, (gGattCharPropWrite_c | gGattCharPropRead_c)) VALUE_UUID128_VARLEN(value_custom, uuid_char_custom, (gPermissionFlagWritable_c | gPermissionFlagReadable_c), 400, 1)‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ Modifications in app_preinclude.h One of the most important considerations to write and read long characteristics is the memory allocation needed for this. You must increment the current "AppPoolsDetails_c" configuration, the "_block_size_" and "_number_of_blocks_". Please ensure that "_block_size_" is aligned with 4 bytes. Once you have found the configuration that works in your application, please follow the steps in Memory Pool Optimizer on MKW3xA/KW3xZ Application Note, to found the best configuration without waste memory resources. For this example, configure "AppPoolsDetails_c" as follows: /* Defines pools by block size and number of blocks. Must be aligned to 4 bytes.*/ #define AppPoolsDetails_c \ _block_size_ 264 _number_of_blocks_ 8 _eol_‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍   Bluetooth LE Client (Temperature Collector) Modifications in gatt_uuid128.h Define the 128 bit UUID of the "custom service" which will be used for this example. Add the following code: /* Custom service */ UUID128(uuid_service_custom, 0xE0, 0x1C, 0x4B, 0x5E, 0x1E, 0xEB, 0xA1, 0x5C, 0xEE, 0xF4, 0x5E, 0xBA, 0x00, 0x01, 0xFF, 0x01) UUID128(uuid_char_custom, 0xE0, 0x1C, 0x4B, 0x5E, 0x1E, 0xEB, 0xA1, 0x5C, 0xEE, 0xF4, 0x5E, 0xBA, 0x01, 0x01, 0xFF, 0x01)‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ Modifications in temperature_collector.c 1. Define the following variables at the "Private type definitions" section: typedef struct customServiceConfig_tag { uint16_t hService; uint16_t hCharacteristic; } customServiceConfig_t; typedef struct appCustomInfo_tag { tmcConfig_t tempClientConfig; customServiceConfig_t customServiceClientConfig; }appCustomInfo_t; typedef enum { mCustomServiceWrite = 0, mCustomServiceRead }customServiceState_t;‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ 2. Add two arrays of 400 bytes, one to send and the other to receive the data from the server in "Private memory declarations" section: /* Dummy array for custom service */ uint8_t mWriteDummyArray[400]; uint8_t mReadDummyArray[400];‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ 3. Define a new function in "Private functions prototypes" section, to write and read the characteristic value: static void BleApp_SendReceiveCustomService (customServiceState_t state);‍‍‍‍ 4. Locate the "BleApp_Config" function, add the following code here to fill the "mWriteDummyArray" with a known pattern before to write our custom characteristic. static void BleApp_Config(void) { uint16_t fill_pattern; /* Fill pattern to write long characteristic */ for (fill_pattern = 0; fill_pattern<400; fill_pattern++) { mWriteDummyArray[fill_pattern] = (uint8_t)fill_pattern; } /* Configure as GAP Central */ BleConnManager_GapCommonConfig(); ... ... }‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ 5. Locate the "BleApp_StoreServiceHandles" function. Modify this function to include our custom service in the service discovery procedure. This is to save the handle of the custom characteristic since it is used by GattClient_WriteCharacteristicValue and GattClient_ReadCharacteristicValue APIs. static void BleApp_StoreServiceHandles ( gattService_t *pService ) { uint8_t i,j; if ((pService->uuidType == gBleUuidType128_c) && FLib_MemCmp(pService->uuid.uuid128, uuid_service_temperature, 16)) { /* Found Temperature Service */ mPeerInformation.customInfo.tempClientConfig.hService = pService->startHandle; for (i = 0; i < pService->cNumCharacteristics; i++) { if ((pService->aCharacteristics[i].value.uuidType == gBleUuidType16_c) && (pService->aCharacteristics[i].value.uuid.uuid16 == gBleSig_Temperature_d)) { /* Found Temperature Char */ mPeerInformation.customInfo.tempClientConfig.hTemperature = pService->aCharacteristics[i].value.handle; for (j = 0; j < pService->aCharacteristics[i].cNumDescriptors; j++) { if (pService->aCharacteristics[i].aDescriptors[j].uuidType == gBleUuidType16_c) { switch (pService->aCharacteristics[i].aDescriptors[j].uuid.uuid16) { /* Found Temperature Char Presentation Format Descriptor */ case gBleSig_CharPresFormatDescriptor_d: { mPeerInformation.customInfo.tempClientConfig.hTempDesc = pService->aCharacteristics[i].aDescriptors[j].handle; break; } /* Found Temperature Char CCCD */ case gBleSig_CCCD_d: { mPeerInformation.customInfo.tempClientConfig.hTempCccd = pService->aCharacteristics[i].aDescriptors[j].handle; break; } default: ; /* No action required */ break; } } } } } } else if ((pService->uuidType == gBleUuidType128_c) && FLib_MemCmp(pService->uuid.uuid128, uuid_service_custom, 16)) { /* Found Custom Service */ mPeerInformation.customInfo.customServiceClientConfig.hService = pService->startHandle; if (pService->cNumCharacteristics > 0U && pService->aCharacteristics != NULL) { /* Found Custom Characteristic */ mPeerInformation.customInfo.customServiceClientConfig.hCharacteristic = pService->aCharacteristics[0].value.handle; } } else { ; } }‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ 6. Develop the "BleApp_SendReceiveCustomService" as shown below. This function is used to write and read the custom characteristic values using long operations. Focus your attention in this function, here is the example of how to use GattClient_WriteCharacteristicValue and GattClient_ReadCharacteristicValue APIs to write and read long characteristic values. Note that the "characteristic" struct was filled before to use the last APIs, with the handle of our custom characteristic and a destination address to receive the value read from the peer. Note that the "doReliableLongCharWrites" field must be TRUE to allow long writes using GattClient_WriteCharacteristicValue.  static void BleApp_SendReceiveCustomService (customServiceState_t state) { bleResult_t bleResult; gattCharacteristic_t characteristic; /* Verify if there is a valid peer */ if (gInvalidDeviceId_c != mPeerInformation.deviceId) { /* Fill the characteristic struct with a read destiny and the custom service handle */ characteristic.value.handle = mPeerInformation.customInfo.customServiceClientConfig.hCharacteristic; characteristic.value.paValue = &mReadDummyArray[0]; /* Try to write the custom characteristic value */ if(mCustomServiceWrite == state) { bleResult = GattClient_WriteCharacteristicValue(mPeerInformation.deviceId, &characteristic, (uint16_t)400, &mWriteDummyArray[0], FALSE, FALSE, TRUE, NULL); /* An error occurred while trying to write the custom characteristic value, disconnect */ if(gBleSuccess_c != bleResult) { (void)Gap_Disconnect(mPeerInformation.deviceId); } } /* Try to read the custom characteristic value */ else { bleResult = GattClient_ReadCharacteristicValue(mPeerInformation.deviceId, &characteristic, (uint16_t)400); /* An error occurred while trying to read the custom characteristic value, disconnect */ if(gBleSuccess_c != bleResult) { (void)Gap_Disconnect(mPeerInformation.deviceId); } } } }‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ 7. Modify the "BleApp_GattClientCallback" as shown below. In this function, we implement the "BleApp_SendReceiveCustomService" which writes or reads the characteristic depending on the input parameter "state". The expected behavior of this example is, first, write the 400-byte pattern contained in the mWriteDummyArray to our custom characteristic value, just after to write the characteristic descriptor of the temperature service (which is indicated by this callback in the gGattProcWriteCharacteristicDescriptor_c event). When the write has been executed successfully, it is indicated in this callback, by the "gGattProcWriteCharacteristicValue_c" event, therefore, here we can execute our function to read the characteristic value. Then "gGattProcReadCharacteristicValue_c" event is triggered if the read has been completed, here, we compare the value written with the value read from the GATT server and, if both are the same, the green RGB led should turn on indicating that our long characteristic has been written and read successfully, otherwise, the GATT client disconnects from the GATT server.   static void BleApp_GattClientCallback( deviceId_t serverDeviceId, gattProcedureType_t procedureType, gattProcedureResult_t procedureResult, bleResult_t error ) { if (procedureResult == gGattProcError_c) { attErrorCode_t attError = (attErrorCode_t)(uint8_t)(error); if (attError == gAttErrCodeInsufficientEncryption_c || attError == gAttErrCodeInsufficientAuthorization_c || attError == gAttErrCodeInsufficientAuthentication_c) { /* Start Pairing Procedure */ (void)Gap_Pair(serverDeviceId, &gPairingParameters); } BleApp_StateMachineHandler(serverDeviceId, mAppEvt_GattProcError_c); } else { if (procedureResult == gGattProcSuccess_c) { switch(procedureType) { case gGattProcReadCharacteristicDescriptor_c: { if (mpCharProcBuffer != NULL) { /* Store the value of the descriptor */ BleApp_StoreDescValues(mpCharProcBuffer); } break; } case gGattProcWriteCharacteristicDescriptor_c: { /* Try to write to the custom service */ BleApp_SendReceiveCustomService(mCustomServiceWrite); } break; case gGattProcWriteCharacteristicValue_c: { /* If write to the custom service was completed, try to read the custom service */ BleApp_SendReceiveCustomService(mCustomServiceRead); } break; case gGattProcReadCharacteristicValue_c: { /* If read to the custom service was completed, compare write and read buffers */ if(FLib_MemCmp(&mWriteDummyArray[0], &mReadDummyArray[0], 400)) { Led3On(); } else { (void)Gap_Disconnect(mPeerInformation.deviceId); } } break; default: { ; /* No action required */ break; } } BleApp_StateMachineHandler(serverDeviceId, mAppEvt_GattProcComplete_c); } } /* Signal Service Discovery Module */ BleServDisc_SignalGattClientEvent(serverDeviceId, procedureType, procedureResult, error); }‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ Modifications in app_preinclude.h One of the most important considerations to write and read long characteristics is the memory allocation needed for this. You must increment the current "AppPoolsDetails_c" configuration, the "_block_size_" and "_number_of_blocks_". Please ensure that "_block_size_" is aligned with 4 bytes. You can know when the current configuration of pools do not satisfy the application requirements if the return value of either "GattClient_WriteCharacteristicValue" or "GattClient_ReadCharacteristicValue " is "gBleOutOfMemory_c" instead of "gBleSuccess_c" (If it is the case, the device will disconnect to the peer according to the code in step 6 in "Modifications in temperature_collector.c"). Once you have found the configuration that works in your application, please follow the steps in Memory Pool Optimizer on MKW3xA/KW3xZ Application Note, to found the best configuration without waste memory resources. For this example, configure "AppPoolsDetails_c" as follows: /* Defines pools by block size and number of blocks. Must be aligned to 4 bytes.*/ #define AppPoolsDetails_c \ _block_size_ 112 _number_of_blocks_ 6 _eol_ \ _block_size_ 256 _number_of_blocks_ 3 _eol_ \ _block_size_ 280 _number_of_blocks_ 2 _eol_ \ _block_size_ 432 _number_of_blocks_ 1 _eol_‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍   Please let us know any question regarding this topic.

Introduction When a software update is requested by an OTAP Client (a device that receives a software update, commonly Bluetooth LE Peripheral) from the OTAP Server (a device that sends a software update, commonly Bluetooth LE Central), you may want to preserve some data previously acquired, such as bonding information, trimming values for the system oscillators, or probably NVM data for your application. This document guides you in performing OTAP updates preserving the flash data content of your interest. This document is intended for developers familiarized with OTAP custom Bluetooth LE service, for more information, you can take a look at the following post: Reprogramming a KW36 device using the OTAP Client Software.   OTAP Header and Sub-elements OTAP Protocol implements a format for the software update that is composed of a header and a defined number of sub-elements. The OTAP Header describes general information about the software update and it has a defined format shown in the following figure. For more information about the header fields, you can go to 11.4.1 Bluetooth Low Energy OTAP header chapter of the Bluetooth Low Energy Application Developer's Guide document included in the SDK at <SDK_2.2.X_FRDM-KW36_Download_Path>\docs\wireless\Bluetooth                              Each Sub-element contains information for a specific purpose. You could implement your proprietary fields for your application (For more information about sub-element fields, you can go to 11.4.1 Bluetooth Low Energy OTAP header chapter of the Bluetooth Low Energy Application Developer's Guide document included in the SDK at <SDK_2.2.X_FRDM-KW36_Download_Path>\docs\wireless\Bluetooth). OTAP includes the following sub-elements: Image File Sub-element Value Field Lenght (bytes) Description Upgrade Image  Variable This sub-element contains the actual binary executable image which is copied into the flash memory of the OTAP Client device. The maximum size of this sub-element depends on the target hardware. Sector Bitmap 32 This sub-element contains a sector bitmap of the flash memory of the target device which tells the bootloader which sectors should be overwritten and which leave intact. The format of this field is the least-significant bit first for each byte with the least significant bytes and bits standing for the lowest memory sections of the flash.  Image File CRC 2 This is a 16-bit CRC calculated over all elements of the image file except this field itself. This element must be the last sub-element in an image file sent over the air.   OTAP Sector Bitmap Sub-element Field The KW36 Flash is partitioned into: One 256 KB Program Flash (P-Flash) array divided into 2 KB sectors with a flash address range from 0x0000_0000 to 0x0003_FFFF. One 256 KB FlexNVM array divided in 2 KB sectors, flash address ranges from 0x1000_0000 to 0x1003_FFFF with an Alias memory with address range 0x0004_0000 to 0x0007_FFFF. The Bitmap sub-element is 256 bits of length, in terms of the KW36 flash, each bit represents a 2KB sector covering the address range from 0x0 - 0x0007_FFFF (P-Flash to FlexNVM Alias address range), where 1 means that such sector should be erased and 0 means that such sector should be preserved. The Bitmap field is used by the OTAP Bootloader to obtain the address range which should be erased before programming the KW36 with the software update, so it must be configured before sending a software update to leave intact the address range of memory that contain data of your interest and erase only the address range that will be overwritten by the software update.        For example: Suppose that a developer wants to preserve the address range between 0x7D800 - 0x7FFFF and the address range between 0x0 - 0x1FFF, and the left memory must be erased. The address range between 0x7D800 - 0x7FFFF corresponds to the 5 top flash sectors and the address range between 0x0 - 0x1FFF is the lowest 4 sectors. So, it means that bits between 256 and 252 (256, 255, 254, 253 and 252) and bits between 4 and 1 (4,3,2 and 1) should be set to 0, that way OTAP Bitmap for this example is: 0x07FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF0   Configuring OTAP Bitmap to Protect an Address Range with NXP Test Tool Download and install Test Tool for Connectivity products in NXP's web site Open NXP Test Tool 12 software on your PC. Go to "OTA Updates -> OTAP Bluetooth LE" Then load your image file for the software update clicking on the "Browse..." button (NXP Test Tool only accepts .bin and .srec files). You can configure the OTAP Bitmap selecting the "Override sector bitmap" checkbox and changing the default value by your new bitmap value. Once you have configured the bitmap, select "Save...".   Then, a window will be displayed to select the destination to save the .bleota file. Provide a name to identify this file. You can use this file with IoT Toolbox App for Android and iOS to update the software using OTAP. This new .bleota file contains the bitmap that tells to the OTAP Bootloader which sectors will be erased and which sectors will be preserved.

Introduction The FRDM-KW36 includes an RTC module with a 32 kHz crystal oscillator. This module generates a 32 kHz clock source for the MCU whilst running on very low power mode. This oscillator includes a set of programmable capacitors used as the C LOAD . Changing the value of these capacitors can modify the frequency the oscillator provides. This configurable capacitance ranges from 0 pF (capacitor bank disabled) to 30 pF in steps of 2 pF. These values are obtained by combining the enabled capacitors. The values available are 2 pF, 4 pF, 8 pF, and 16 pF. Any combination of these four can be done. It is recommended that these internal capacitors are disabled if the external capacitors are available (clearing SC2P, SC4P, SCS8, and SC16 bits in RTC Control Register SFR). To adjust the frequency provided by the oscillator, you must first be able to measure the frequency. Using a frequency counter would be ideal, as it provides a more precise measurement than an oscilloscope. You will also need to output the oscillator frequency. To output the oscillator frequency, using any of the Bluetooth demo applications as an example, you should do the following: Adjusting Frequency Example This example will make use of the Heart Rate Sensor demo (freertos version) from the Connectivity Software Stack and assumes that the developer has the knowledge of import or open projects from the SDK to IDE. Open or clone the Heart Rate Sensor project from your SDK. Find the board.c and board.h files in the board folder at the workspace.                                                                                Declare a void function on the board.h file as shown below. This function will be in order to mux the RTC clock out to the PTB3 and be able to measure the frequency.  /* Function to mux PTB3 to RTC_CLKOUT */ void BOARD_EnableRtcClkOut (void);‍‍ Develop the BOARD_EnableRtcClkOut function inside the board.c file as below. void BOARD_EnableRtcClkOut(void) { /* Enable PORTB clock gating */ CLOCK_EnableClock(kCLOCK_PortB); /* Mux the RTC_CLKOUT to PTB3 */ PORT_SetPinMux(PORTB, 3u, kPORT_MuxAlt7); /* Select the 32kHz reference for RTC_CLKOUT signal */ SIM->SOPT1 |= SIM_SOPT1_OSC32KOUT(1); } Call the BOARD_EnableRtcClkOut function in hardware_init function just after BOARD_BootClockRUN (board.c file). Find clock_config.c file in the board folder at the workspace. Add the following defines at the top of the file. #define RTC_OSC_CAP_LOAD_0 0x0U /*!< RTC oscillator, capacitance 0pF */ #define RTC_OSC_CAP_LOAD_2 0x2000U /*!< RTC oscillator, capacitance 2pF */ #define RTC_OSC_CAP_LOAD_4 0x1000U /*!< RTC oscillator, capacitance 4pF */ #define RTC_OSC_CAP_LOAD_6 0x3000U /*!< RTC oscillator, capacitance 6pF */ #define RTC_OSC_CAP_LOAD_8 0x800U /*!< RTC oscillator, capacitance 8pF */ #define RTC_OSC_CAP_LOAD_10 0x2800U /*!< RTC oscillator, capacitance 10pF */ #define RTC_OSC_CAP_LOAD_12 0x1800U /*!< RTC oscillator, capacitance 12pF */ #define RTC_OSC_CAP_LOAD_14 0x3800U /*!< RTC oscillator, capacitance 14pF */ #define RTC_OSC_CAP_LOAD_16 0x400U /*!< RTC oscillator, capacitance 16pF */ #define RTC_OSC_CAP_LOAD_18 0x2400U /*!< RTC oscillator, capacitance 18pF */ #define RTC_OSC_CAP_LOAD_20 0x1400U /*!< RTC oscillator, capacitance 20pF */ #define RTC_OSC_CAP_LOAD_22 0x3400U /*!< RTC oscillator, capacitance 22pF */ #define RTC_OSC_CAP_LOAD_24 0xC00U /*!< RTC oscillator, capacitance 24pF */ #define RTC_OSC_CAP_LOAD_26 0x2C00U /*!< RTC oscillator, capacitance 26pF */ #define RTC_OSC_CAP_LOAD_28 0x1C00U /*!< RTC oscillator, capacitance 28pF */ #define RTC_OSC_CAP_LOAD_30 0x3C00U /*!< RTC oscillator, capacitance 30pF */ Search the CLOCK_CONFIG_EnableRtcOsc call to a function inside the BOARD_BootClockRUN function (also in the clock_config.c file), and edit the argument by any of the defines above. Finally, disable the low power options and led support in the "preinclude.h" file located in the source folder of the project: #define cPWR_UsePowerDownMode 0 #define gLEDSupported_d 0 At this point, you can measure in PTB3 and play with the frequency adjust using your frequency counter. Each time that the board is programmed, you need to perform a POR to get the correct measure. The following table was obtained from an FRDM-KW36 board rev B and it can be used as a reference to adjust the frequency. Please note that the capacitance is not only composed of the enabled internal capacitance, but also the parasitic capacitances found in the package, bond wires, bond pad, and the PCB traces. So, while the reference measurements given below should be close to the actual value, you should also make measurements with your board, to ensure that the frequency is trimmed specifically to your board and layout.   Enabled Capacitors CLOAD Capacitance Definition Frequency - 0pF RTC_OSC_CAP_LOAD_0 (bank disabled) 32772.980Hz SC2P 2pF RTC_OSC_CAP_LOAD_2 32771.330Hz SC4P 4pF RTC_OSC_CAP_LOAD_4 32770.050Hz SC2P, SC4P 6pF RTC_OSC_CAP_LOAD_6 32769.122Hz SC8P 8pF RTC_OSC_CAP_LOAD_8 32768.289Hz SC2P, SC8P 10pF RTC_OSC_CAP_LOAD_10 32767.701Hz SC4P, SC8P 12pF RTC_OSC_CAP_LOAD_12 32767.182Hz SC2P, SC4P, SC8P 14pF RTC_OSC_CAP_LOAD_14 32766.766Hz SC16P 16pF RTC_OSC_CAP_LOAD_16 32766.338Hz SC2P, SC16P 18pF RTC_OSC_CAP_LOAD_18 32766.038Hz SC4P, SC16P 20pF RTC_OSC_CAP_LOAD_20 32765.762Hz SC2P, SC4P, SC16P 22pF RTC_OSC_CAP_LOAD_22 32765.532Hz SC8P, SC16P 24pF RTC_OSC_CAP_LOAD_24 32765.297Hz SC2P, SC8P, SC16P 26pF RTC_OSC_CAP_LOAD_26 32765.117Hz SC4P, SC8P, SC16P 28pF RTC_OSC_CAP_LOAD_28 32764.940Hz SC2P, SC4P, SC8P, SC16P 30pF RTC_OSC_CAP_LOAD_30 32764.764Hz

Introduction This document is to guide how to modify the OTAP Client software to the Low Power module. The starting point of this document is the OTAP Client example in the FRDM-KW36 SDK v2.2.2.   Deep Sleep Modes This section provides a base to understand how the developer should change between DSM1 (Deep Sleep Mode 1) and DSM3 (Deep Sleep Mode 3). The DSM6 does not need to be started by the developer, instead, the controller configures this mode automatically and returns to the latest mode after finished the radio activity.   DSM1 This low-power mode was designed to be used when the BLE stack is active, in other words when the LL is in advertising, scanning, or connection states. In this mode, the MCU enters LLS3 and BLE Link Layer enters deep sleep. The SoC wakes up from this mode by the on-board switches, by LPTMR timeout, or by BLE Link Layer wake-up interrupt (BLE_LL reference clock reaches wake up instance register) using LLWU module. The LPTMR timer is used to measure the time that the MCU spends in deep sleep to synchronize low-power timers at wakeup.   DSM3 This low-power mode was designed to be used when all stacks enabled for this platform are idle, in other words, when the LL stop advertising, scanning, or connection. In this mode, the MCU enters LLS3 and all enabled link layers remain idle. All RAM is retained. The SoC wakes up from this mode by the on-board switches, by DCDC power switch (when DCDC is in buck mode), or by LPTMR timeout using LLWU module. The LPTMR timer is also used to measure the time that MCU spends in deep sleep to synchronize low-power timers at wakeup.   DSM6 This low-power mode was developed to save some power while the radio is on. Its most common use case is with the radio in Rx waiting for a packet. Upon receiving the packet the radio wakes up the MCU. In this mode, the MCU enters STOP mode and the radio maintains its state. Any module capable of producing an interrupt can wake up the MCU, such as on-board switches, DCDC power switch (when DCDC is in buck mode), LPTMR timeout, Radio Interrupt, UART, and so on. The LPTMR timer is also used to measure the time that the MCU spends in deep sleep to synchronize low-power timers at wakeup.   For more information about DSM modes, you can inspect the “Connectivity Framework Reference Manual” chapter 3.15 Low-power library, it provides full information of Low Power modes and the usage on the NXP stack. It is available in your SDK at <FRDM-KW36 SDK root>\docs\wireless\Common.   Modifications on the Software In order to add low power on the OTAP Client (switching between DSM1, DSM3, and DSM6) two files must be modified: - app_preinclude.h - otap_client_att.c The following sections explain these changes.   app_preinclude.h This file is intended to contain the definitions that manage the behavior of the application. To include and enable the Low Power module you must add (or modify if the macro is already defined in this file) the following preprocessor directives.   1. Modify the AppPoolsDetails as following. /* Defines pools by block size and number of blocks. Must be aligned to 4 bytes.*/ #define AppPoolsDetails_c \ _block_size_ 32 _number_of_blocks_ 6 _eol_ \ _block_size_ 64 _number_of_blocks_ 4 _eol_ \ _block_size_ 88 _number_of_blocks_ 3 _eol_ \ _block_size_ 248 _number_of_blocks_ 2 _eol_ \ _block_size_ 312 _number_of_blocks_ 1 _eol_ \ _block_size_ 392 _number_of_blocks_ 1 _eol_‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ 2. Set “cPWR_UsePowerDownMode” to 1 and keep the following directives in the “Framework Configuration” section as shown below. /* Check Low Power Timer */ #define cPWR_CheckLowPowerTimers 1 /* Enable/Disable Low Power Timer */ #define gTMR_EnableLowPowerTimers 1 /* Enable/Disable PowerDown functionality in PwrLib */ #define cPWR_UsePowerDownMode 1 /* Enable/Disable BLE Link Layer DSM */ #define cPWR_BLE_LL_Enable 1 /* Default Deep Sleep Mode*/ #define cPWR_DeepSleepMode 3 /* Enable/Disable MCU Sleep During BLE Events */ #define cMCU_SleepDuringBleEvents 1 /* Default deep sleep duration in ms */ #define cPWR_DeepSleepDurationMs 30000 /* Number of slots(625us) before the wake up instant before which the hardware needs to exit from deep sleep mode. */ #define cPWR_BLE_LL_OffsetToWakeupInstant 3 /* Enables / Disables the DCDC platform component */ #define gDCDC_Enabled_d 1 /* Default DCDC Mode used by the application */ #define APP_DCDC_MODE gDCDC_Mode_Buck_c /* Default DCDC Battery Level Monitor interval */ #define APP_DCDC_VBAT_MONITOR_INTERVAL 600000‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ 3. Add the following directives in the “BLE Stack Configuration” section. Create the “Auto Configuration” section to disable LED support whenever Low Power is enabled. /*! ********************************************************************************* * BLE Stack Configuration ********************************************************************************** */ /* Time between the beginning of two consecutive advertising PDU's */ #define mcAdvertisingPacketInterval_c 0x02 /* 1.25 msec */ /* Offset to the first instant register. */ #define mcOffsetToFirstInstant_c 0x00 /* 625usec */ /*! ********************************************************************************* * Auto Configuration ********************************************************************************** */ /* Disable LEDs when enabling low power */ #if cPWR_UsePowerDownMode || gMWS_UseCoexistence_d #define gLEDSupported_d 0 #endif #if gMWS_UseCoexistence_d #undef gKBD_KeysCount_c #define gKBD_KeysCount_c 1 #endif‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ 4. Modify the “Memory Pools Configuration” section as follows. /* Enable RNG seed storage in Flash */ #define gRngSeedStorageAddr_d ((uint32_t)FREESCALE_PROD_DATA_BASE_ADDR + 1024) /* Enable XCVR calibration storage in Flash */ #define gPreserveXcvrDacTrimValue_d 1 #define gXcvrDacTrimValueSorageAddr_d ((uint32_t)FREESCALE_PROD_DATA_BASE_ADDR + 1040) /* Application Connection sleep mode */ #define gAppDeepSleepMode_c 1 /* Application RAM usage configuration */ #define cPWR_RamRetentionInVLLS 2 /* 32K */ /* Disable unused LowPower modes */ #define cPWR_EnableDeepSleepMode_1 1 #define cPWR_EnableDeepSleepMode_2 0 #define cPWR_EnableDeepSleepMode_3 1 #define cPWR_EnableDeepSleepMode_4 0 #define cPWR_EnableDeepSleepMode_5 0 #define cPWR_EnableDeepSleepMode_7 0 #define cPWR_EnableDeepSleepMode_8 0 /* Warm-boot sequence will use the default stack which is used by ISRs on FreeRTOS */ #define USE_WARMBOOT_SP 0‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍   otap_client_att.c This is the main source file at the application level. Here are managed all the procedures that the device performs, before, during, and after to create a connection. This allows you to get the state of the device any instant and, hence, the dedicated low power APIs that rule the application must be implemented here, in the callbacks contained in this file, for an easier switching among the low power states.   1. Include “PWR_Configuration.h” header in “Include” section: #if (cPWR_UsePowerDownMode) #include "PWR_Interface.h" #include "PWR_Configuration.h" #endif‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ 2. Locate the “BleApp_Config” function. This function is executed once, after POR (Power on reset) during the device setup. Here you can change the deep sleep mode to DSM3 and allow the device to sleep using “PWR_ChangeDeepSleepMode” and “PWR_AllowDeviceToSleep” APIs. When the device has finished the initialization, it goes to sleep since all stacks are idle. See the following example. static void BleApp_Config(void) { #if defined(MULTICORE_APPLICATION_CORE) && (MULTICORE_APPLICATION_CORE == 1) if (GattDbDynamic_CreateDatabase() != gBleSuccess_c) { panic(0,0,0,0); return; } #endif /* MULTICORE_APPLICATION_CORE */ /* Common GAP configuration */ BleConnManager_GapCommonConfig(); /* Register stack callbacks */ (void)App_RegisterGattServerCallback (BleApp_GattServerCallback);‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ mAdvState.advOn = FALSE; /* Start services */ basServiceConfig.batteryLevel = BOARD_GetBatteryLevel(); (void)Bas_Start(&basServiceConfig); (void)Dis_Start(&disServiceConfig); if (OtapClient_Config() == FALSE) { /* An error occurred in configuring the OTAP Client */ panic(0,0,0,0); } /* Allocate application timer */ appTimerId = TMR_AllocateTimer(); mBatteryMeasurementTimerId = TMR_AllocateTimer(); #if (cPWR_UsePowerDownMode) #if MULTICORE_APPLICATION_CORE #if gErpcLowPowerApiServiceIncluded_c PWR_ChangeBlackBoxDeepSleepMode(cPWR_DeepSleepMode); PWR_AllowBlackBoxToSleep(); #endif PWR_ChangeDeepSleepMode(cPWR_DeepSleepMode); PWR_AllowDeviceToSleep(); #else PWR_ChangeDeepSleepMode(cPWR_DeepSleepMode); PWR_AllowDeviceToSleep(); #endif #endif }‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ 3. Locate the “BleApp_Start” function. This function is executed just after wake up by pressing the LLWU SW3 button. This action will trigger the advertising, so, you must change the deep sleep mode to DSM1 using “PWR_ChangeDeepSleepMode” API since the BLE stack is active. See the following example. void BleApp_Start(void) { Led1On(); if (mPeerDeviceId == gInvalidDeviceId_c) { /* Device is not connected and not advertising*/ if (!mAdvState.advOn) { #if gAppUseBonding_d if (gcBondedDevices > 0) { mAdvState.advType = whiteListAdvState_c; } else { #endif mAdvState.advType = advState_c; #if gAppUseBonding_d } #endif #if (cPWR_UsePowerDownMode) #if MULTICORE_APPLICATION_CORE #if gErpcLowPowerApiServiceIncluded_c PWR_ChangeBlackBoxDeepSleepMode(gAppDeepSleepMode_c); #endif #else PWR_ChangeDeepSleepMode(gAppDeepSleepMode_c); #endif #endif BleApp_Advertise(); } } }‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ 4. Locate the “BleApp_AdvertisingCallback” function. This function is executed every time the advertising state changes. Change the deep sleep mode to DSM3 when “mAdvState.advOn” is false, in other words, when the device stops advertising. If you stop the advertising either using an application timer or a user button, KW36 will go to sleep until you start advertising again (pressing LLWU SW3 button), saving power when all stacks are idle. See the following example. static void BleApp_AdvertisingCallback (gapAdvertisingEvent_t* pAdvertisingEvent) { switch (pAdvertisingEvent->eventType) { case gAdvertisingStateChanged_c: { mAdvState.advOn = !mAdvState.advOn; if(mAdvState.advOn) { LED_StopFlashingAllLeds(); Led1Flashing(); } #if (cPWR_UsePowerDownMode) else { #if MULTICORE_APPLICATION_CORE #if gErpcLowPowerApiServiceIncluded_c PWR_ChangeBlackBoxDeepSleepMode(cPWR_DeepSleepMode); #endif #else PWR_ChangeDeepSleepMode(cPWR_DeepSleepMode); #endif } #endif } break; case gAdvertisingCommandFailed_c: { Led2On(); panic(0,0,0,0); } break; default: ; /* For MISRA compliance */ break; } }‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ 5. Locate “BleApp_ConnectionCallback” function. It is executed every time the connection state changes. In “gConnEvtConnected_c” add the following code to change to DSM1, since the BLE stack is active. case gConnEvtConnected_c: { /* Advertising stops when connected */ mAdvState.advOn = FALSE; (void)TMR_StopTimer(appTimerId); /* Subscribe client*/ mPeerDeviceId = peerDeviceId; (void)Bas_Subscribe(&basServiceConfig, peerDeviceId); (void)OtapCS_Subscribe(peerDeviceId); OtapClient_HandleConnectionEvent (peerDeviceId); /* Start battery measurements */ (void)TMR_StartLowPowerTimer(mBatteryMeasurementTimerId, gTmrLowPowerIntervalMillisTimer_c, TmrSeconds(mBatteryLevelReportInterval_c), BatteryMeasurementTimerCallback, NULL); #if (cPWR_UsePowerDownMode) #if MULTICORE_APPLICATION_CORE #if gErpcLowPowerApiServiceIncluded_c PWR_ChangeBlackBoxDeepSleepMode(gAppDeepSleepMode_c); PWR_AllowBlackBoxToSleep(); #endif #else PWR_ChangeDeepSleepMode(gAppDeepSleepMode_c); PWR_AllowDeviceToSleep(); #endif #else /* UI */ LED_StopFlashingAllLeds(); Led1On(); #endif } break;‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ In “gConnEvtDisconnected_c” add the following code to change to DSM3, since all stacks are idle. case gConnEvtDisconnected_c: { /* Unsubscribe client */ mPeerDeviceId = gInvalidDeviceId_c; (void)Bas_Unsubscribe(&basServiceConfig, peerDeviceId); (void)OtapCS_Unsubscribe(); /* UI */ LED_StopFlashingAllLeds(); Led1Flashing(); Led2Flashing(); Led3Flashing(); Led4Flashing();‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ OtapClient_HandleDisconnectionEvent (peerDeviceId); #if (cPWR_UsePowerDownMode) /* Go to sleep */ #if MULTICORE_APPLICATION_CORE #if gErpcLowPowerApiServiceIncluded_c PWR_ChangeBlackBoxDeepSleepMode(cPWR_DeepSleepMode); #endif #else PWR_ChangeDeepSleepMode(cPWR_DeepSleepMode); #endif #else /* Restart advertising*/ BleApp_Start(); #endif } break;‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍   Power Consumption Profile of OTAP Client This section explains the behavior of the power consumption profile along the time. We can differ when DSM1 or DSM3 are used depending on the device state. If the device needs to advertise or is in connection state, it will use DSM1 because this sleep mode can predict when the device needs to handle the communication with others and wake up automatically through the BLE Link Layer wakeup interrupt. On the other hand, when no actions are in progress, it will use DSM3 and the wake up depends entirely on the LLWU SW3 button in this example. On the other hand, the DSM6 puts the MCU in STOP mode during the transmission and reception in BLE events, it does not need to be started manually, instead, the controller configures this mode automatically and returns to DSM1 mode after finished the radio activity.   The APIs that change the deep sleep mode to DSM1 are: • BleApp_Start: It starts advertising. • BleApp_ConnectionCallback – gConnEvtConnected_d: It notifies when the MCU has been connected to a peer device.   The APIs that change the deep sleep mode to DSM3 are: • BleApp_Config: It takes part of the initialization procedure after POR. All tasks are idle, the device is waiting for the LLWU SW3 button to wake up and start advertising. • BleApp_AdvertisingCallback – mAdvState is off: The device has to stopped advertising, so the MCU is idle. • BleApp_ConnectionCallback – gConnEvtDisconnected_d: It notifies when the device has been disconnected, so the MCU is idle.   Please let us know any questions or comments regarding this topic.
