Simblee™ RFD77402 1 General Characteristics 1.1 Technical Specifications Performance and power consumption can be tuned to the application needs by changing configuration and/or through a customized firmware. Table 1: Technical Specifications (*) target with 90% reflectivity in dark environment and no cover glass 1.2 Electrical Specifications Table 2: Electrical Characteristics (*) Note that a pull-up to 1.8V implies that INT pin is configured as open drain (failure in doing so will cause high leakage).

Simblee™ RFD77402 2 Module Interface 2.1 Electrical Interface The Simblee Time-of-Flight (TOF) Module interface is a standard 7-big address I2C slave (slave ID 0x4C) device capable up to 1Mbit/s. The ToF module I2C interface supports a direct 8-bit addressing scheme used to access the module user’s register set. This addressing scheme is functional also during standby mode since the module interface and the user’s register set remain powered for a faster response.
Simblee™ RFD77402 2.1.2 I2C Write Access with Auto Increment and Word Mode Features When performing a burst write to the I2C interface, the module response depends on the setting of bits 1:0 of the I2C Init Configuration Register controlling the address auto increment features and word mode. If none of these modes are enabled, the data burst write is going to be directed to the same I2C address.
Simblee™ RFD77402 2.1.4 I2C Write Indirect Addressing with Address Auto Increment and Word Mode As previously mentioned, the ToF module supports an I2C indirect address scheme. In this case, the 16-bit address is written to the register. Each subsequent byte will be written to the 16-bit address location pointed by the register in a manner that depends on bits 2:3 of the I2C Init of the Configuration Register (address auto increment and word mode control bits).
Simblee™ RFD77402 Figure 8: I2C Indirect Address Write with Address Auto Increment and Word Mode (2-Byte Access) 2.1.5 I2C Read Indirect Addressing with Address Auto Increment and Word Mode The indirect addressing I2C read follows the same rules as described above in terms of address auto increment and word mode.

Simblee™ RFD77402 2.2 Host Interface Power Management The module enters standby mode once power is applied. To wake up the module to a fully on state (MCPU responding) the user must set to ‘1’ bit 9 (“MCPU_Init_State”) of the register PMU Configuration Register at address 0x14 and then issue a command that will then cause the MCPU to wake up. A command issued to the module with “MCPU_Init_State” not set to ‘1’ will cause the module to exit the Standby state and go in MCPU OFF state.
Simblee™ RFD77402 2.2.1 Standby / Leakage in Different Electrical Conditions Table 5: I2C SCL/SCA Power-up/down Sequence 2.2.2 Power-up and power-down Sequence Figure 14 below shows the RFD77402 power up and power down sequence. Please note that the module itself has no restrictions in terms of VDD and VI2C_pull-up sequencing, but in the case of VDD ON while VI2C_pull-up supply unit offers a path to GND. The value of such leakage current depends on the power supply impedance to GND.
