Radio Module Pin Mapping
The AIR BoosterPack board provides the ability to remap several of the radio module’s
I/O pins to different MCU pins. JP102, JP105, and JP108 consist of one or more 0603
SMT pads which allow a zero Ohm resistor to be soldered in place to select the desired
jumper position. The default signal routing is determined by a small trace between one
set of pads. To change jumper positions, this trace needs to be cut and a zero Ohm
resistor soldered in the new position.
JP102, in conjunction with R100, selects whether the radio module’s reset signal is
generated by MCU pin P2.5 or P2.7. This allows applications requiring a crystal on the
MCU to use a different pin for radio module reset, at the expense of giving up the use of
the Green segment of the Tri-Color LED.
SRDY is a required signal when using a secondary MCU with the A2530 radio module,
there JP105 should not be modified.
JP108 can be used to select whether MRDY is tied to MODULE_SS or uses its own
MCU pin. Some applications may require MRDY to be isolated from MODULE_SS. In
these cases, MRDY can be configured to use MCU pin P1.4 instead of P2.0, at the
expense of giving up the use of the Current Sensor.
