OOK TX click

‍OOK TX click is a simple wireless transmitter that operates at the frequency of 433MHz (sub-GHz). This device allows realization of a simple, low-speed wireless ad-hoc communication network between a transmitter and compatible receiver, such as the OOK RX click.

Click library

  • Author : Stefan Filipovic
  • Date : Nov 2023.
  • Type : GPIO type

Software Support

We provide a library for the OOK TX Click as well as a demo application (example), developed using MikroElektronika compilers. The demo can run on all the main MikroElektronika development boards.

Package can be downloaded/installed directly from NECTO Studio Package Manager(recommended way), downloaded from our LibStock™ or found on Mikroe github account.

Library Description

‍This library contains API for OOK TX Click driver.

Standard key functions :

  • ooktx_cfg_setup Config Object Initialization function.
    void ooktx_cfg_setup(ooktx_cfg_t *cfg)
    OOK TX configuration object setup function.
    OOK TX Click configuration object.
    Definition ooktx.h:130
  • ooktx_init Initialization function.
    err_t ooktx_init ( ooktx_t *ctx, ooktx_cfg_t *cfg );
    err_t ooktx_init(ooktx_t *ctx, ooktx_cfg_t *cfg)
    OOK TX initialization function.
    OOK TX Click context object.
    Definition ooktx.h:119

Example key functions :

  • ooktx_send_data This function builds and sends a packet of data. The packet format is as follows (MSB first, manchester IEEE 802.3): OOKTX_TRAINING_BYTES, PREABMLE, LEN, DATA_IN, CRC16 (calculated from whole packet excluding training bytes).
    static void ooktx_send_data ( ooktx_t *ctx, uint16_t preamble, uint8_t *data_in, uint8_t len );

Example Description

‍This example demonstrates the use of OOK TX click board by sending a predefined message to the receiver.

The demo application is composed of two sections :

Application Init

‍Initialized the driver and logger.

void application_init ( void )
{
log_cfg_t log_cfg;
ooktx_cfg_t ooktx_cfg;
LOG_MAP_USB_UART( log_cfg );
log_init( &logger, &log_cfg );
log_info( &logger, " Application Init " );
// Click initialization.
ooktx_cfg_setup( &ooktx_cfg );
OOKTX_MAP_MIKROBUS( ooktx_cfg, MIKROBUS_1 );
if ( DIGITAL_OUT_UNSUPPORTED_PIN == ooktx_init( &ooktx, &ooktx_cfg ) )
{
log_error( &logger, " Communication init." );
for ( ; ; );
}
log_info( &logger, " Application Task " );
}
#define OOKTX_MAP_MIKROBUS(cfg, mikrobus)
MikroBUS pin mapping.
Definition ooktx.h:107
void application_init(void)
Definition main.c:88

Application Task

‍Sends a predefined message every 3 seconds and displays it on the USB UART.

void application_task ( void )
{
log_printf ( &logger, " Sending data: %s\r\n\n", ( char * ) OOKTX_MESSAGE );
ooktx_send_data ( &ooktx, OOKTX_PREAMBLE, OOKTX_MESSAGE, strlen ( OOKTX_MESSAGE ) );
Delay_ms ( 1000 );
Delay_ms ( 1000 );
Delay_ms ( 1000 );
}
void application_task(void)
Definition main.c:118
#define OOKTX_PREAMBLE
Definition main.c:34
#define OOKTX_MESSAGE
Definition main.c:35

Note

‍The OOK RX click board is a compatible receiver for the OOK TX click.

Here are a few steps for troubleshooting if you are experiencing issues running this example:

‍- Check the MCU clock configuration, use an external oscillator instead of the MCU's internal one for better accuracy on manchester data rate delay.

  • Measure the actual data rate on the data line and adjust the OOKTX_MAN_BIT_LEN_US value accordingly.

The full application code, and ready to use projects can be installed directly from NECTO Studio Package Manager(recommended way), downloaded from our LibStock™ or found on Mikroe github account.

Other Mikroe Libraries used in the example:

  • MikroSDK.Board
  • MikroSDK.Log
  • Click.OOKTX

Additional notes and informations

Depending on the development board you are using, you may need USB UART click, USB UART 2 Click or RS232 Click to connect to your PC, for development systems with no UART to USB interface available on the board. UART terminal is available in all MikroElektronika compilers.
