SPIRIT click

SPIRIT click carries the SP1ML 868MHz ultra low-power RF module. The board is designed to use 3.3V power supply and 3.3V or 5V I/O voltage levels. It communicates with the target MCU over UART interface, with additional functionality provided by the following pins on the mikroBUS™ line: PWM, RST, CS.

Click library

• Author : Jelena Milosavljevic
• Date : Jun 2021.
• Type : UART type

Software Support

We provide a library for the SPIRIT 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 SPIRIT Click driver.

Standard key functions :

• spirit_cfg_setup Config Object Initialization function.

  void spirit_cfg_setup ( spirit_cfg_t *cfg );

• spirit_init Initialization function.

  err_t spirit_init ( spirit_t *ctx, spirit_cfg_t *cfg );

Example key functions :

• spirit_power_module Function for power mode of SPIRIT click.

  void spirit_power_module ( spirit_t *ctx, uint8_t power_state );

• spirit_reset Function for reseting SPIRIT click.

  void spirit_reset ( spirit_t *ctx );

• spirit_set_mode Function for setting mode of SPIRIT click.

  void spirit_set_mode ( spirit_t *ctx, uint8_t mode );

Example Description

‍This example reads and processes data from SPIRIT clicks.

The demo application is composed of two sections :

Application Init

‍Initializes the driver and configures the click board.

void application_init ( void ) 
{
    log_cfg_t log_cfg;
    spirit_cfg_t cfg;
 
    LOG_MAP_USB_UART( log_cfg );
    log_init( &logger, &log_cfg );
    log_info( &logger, "---- Application Init ----" );
 
    //  Click initialization.
 
    spirit_cfg_setup( &cfg );
    SPIRIT_MAP_MIKROBUS( cfg, MIKROBUS_1 );
    spirit_init( &spirit, &cfg );
    Delay_ms ( 1000 );
 
    log_info( &logger, "---- Configuring the module ----" );
    spirit_power_module( &spirit, SPIRIT_MODULE_WAKE_UP );
    spirit_reset( &spirit );
    spirit_set_mode( &spirit, SPIRIT_OPERATING_MODE );
    Delay_ms ( 1000 );
    log_printf( &logger, "COMMAND MODE\r\n" );
    spirit_send_cmd( &spirit, SPIRIT_CMD_ENTER_COMMAND_MODE );
    spirit_process( );
    log_printf( &logger, "FIRMWARE VERSION\r\n" );
    spirit_send_cmd( &spirit, SPIRIT_CMD_READ_MODULE_VERSION );
    spirit_process( );
    log_printf( &logger, "TXRX LED - OPEN DRAIN OUTPUT\r\n" );
    spirit_send_cmd_with_parameter( &spirit, SPIRIT_CMD_CFG_TXRX_LED, SPIRIT_PCFG_TXRXLED_OPEN_DRAIN );
    spirit_process( );
    log_printf( &logger, "STORE CONFIG\r\n" );
    spirit_send_cmd( &spirit, SPIRIT_CMD_STORE_CURRENT_CONFIG );
    spirit_process( );
    log_printf( &logger, "OPERATING MODE\r\n" );
    spirit_send_cmd( &spirit, SPIRIT_CMD_ENTER_OPERATING_MODE );
    spirit_process( );
    log_info( &logger, "---- The module has been configured ----" );
#ifdef DEMO_APP_RECEIVER
    log_info( &logger, "---- RECEIVER MODE ----" );
#endif 
#ifdef DEMO_APP_TRANSMITTER
    log_info( &logger, "---- TRANSMITTER MODE ----" );
#endif 
    Delay_ms ( 1000 );
}

Application Task

‍Depending on the selected mode, it reads all the received data or sends the desired message every 2 seconds.

void application_task ( void ) {
#ifdef DEMO_APP_RECEIVER
    spirit_process( );
#endif   
    
#ifdef DEMO_APP_TRANSMITTER 
    spirit_generic_write( &spirit, TEXT_TO_SEND, strlen( TEXT_TO_SEND ) );
    log_info( &logger, "---- The message has been sent ----" );
    Delay_ms ( 1000 );
    Delay_ms ( 1000 );
#endif
}

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.SPIRIT

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.
