Hardware

Specifications:

• Powered by Tibbo OS (TiOS).
• 10/100BaseT auto-MDIX Ethernet port with RJ45/magnetics.
• Optional Wi-Fi interface (requires the WA2000 add-on module).
• Can control a 4G/LTE modem* (such as the SIM7500).
• Four high-speed serial ports (CMOS):
  • Baudrates of up to 921,600bps;
  • None/even/odd/mark/space parity modes;
  • 7 or 8 bits/character;
  • Full-duplex mode with RTS/CTS and XON/XOFF flow control;
  • Half-duplex mode with direction control;
  • Encoding and decoding of Wiegand and clock/data streams.
• 54 general-purpose I/O lines; 8 lines can work as interrupts.
• Square wave output (can be used for buzzer* control).
• 4 synchronous serial ports with SPI and I2C modes.
• Supports LCD and OLED panels*.
• Supports matrix and binary output keypads*.
• RTC with backup power input (optional onboard supercapacitor).
• 22KB SRAM for Tibbo BASIC/C variables and data.
• 1MB flash memory for TiOS, application code, and file system.
• 2048-byte EEPROM for data storage.
• Three status LEDs onboard:
  • Green and red main status LEDs;
  • Yellow Ethernet link LED.
• Two control lines for external green and red main status LEDs;
• Software- and hardware-controlled PLL for selecting high or low speed.
• Reliable power-on/ brown-out reset circuit.
• Powering options:
  • Through the switching regulator, 12VDC nominal (8 ~ 20V);
  • Using regulated 3.3V power (the regulator is bypassed).
• The regulator can provide up to 1.3A @ 3.3V to external devices.
• Power: 250mA @ 3.3V (100Base-T mode, full speed).
• Dimensions (LxWxH): 75 x 36 x 17.5mm**.
• Operating temperature range: -40 ~ +70°C.
• Firmware is upgradeable through the serial port or network.
• Tibbo BASIC/C application can be debugged through the Ethernet LAN.
• CE- and FCC- certified.

*Must be connected externally.

**Not including RJ45, power jack, WA2000.

Programming

Platform objects:

• beep — generates buzzer patterns.
• button — monitors the MD (setup) line.
• fd — manages the flash memory file system and direct sector access.
• io — handles I/O lines, ports, and interrupts.
• kp — works with matrix and binary keypads.
• lcd — controls graphical display panels.
• net — controls the Ethernet port.
• pat — "plays" patterns on up to five LED pairs.
• ppp — accesses the Internet over a serial modem (4G/LTE, etc.).
• pppoe — accesses the Internet over an ADSL modem.
• romfile — facilitates access to resource files (fixed data).
• rtc — keeps track of date and time.
• ser — controls serial ports (UART, Wiegand, clock/data modes).
• sock — socket comms (up to 16 UDP, TCP, and HTTP sessions).
• ssi — controls serial synchronous interface channels (SPI, I2C...).
• stor — provides access to the EEPROM.
• sys — in charge of general device functionality.
• wln — handles the Wi-Fi interface.
