RapidConnect Programming Fixture
ZPRGF-20
Rev 1.1 | March 2014
Power
J13 is used to select between USB or user-provided DC power
sources. To use the USB connection as a power source, the
shorting jumper on J13 should be on pins 1-2 (this is the
default position). To use an external DC power source, the
shorting jumper must be moved to pins 2-3. The on-board
LDO will convert either USB-provided 5V or user-provided
external power to 3.3V.
USB Connection
5V up to 325mA
Alternate Power Connectors (J15 or J7 - see I/O section)
Recommended DC Power Source
4-5VDC 325 mA
(Note: If supplying power on J15, do not supply power on J7)
Absolute Max Input Voltage
16VDC (Note: Higher voltage levels will result in damage to the
unit).
LEDs
Four LED indicators are provided:
TX – Flashes when the module transmits serial data
RX – Flashes when the module receives serial data
MAIN PWR – Lights when there is 3.3V power present on the
board
MODULE PWR – Lights when there is 3.3V power present on
the ZigBee module
Connectivity
J10 jumper installed on pins 1-2 and pins 3-4 (the default posi-
tions for those jumpers)
Normal USB operation - connects module TX/RX pins to USB
interface. ( Note: COM port will only be present when the module is
powered)
The RapidConnect Programming Fixture provides
developers with a selection of convenient interfaces for
programming and debugging a RapidConnect ZigBee
module.
