Kit User manual

Introduction

The Renesas kit Detect it! is based on the low power 16-bit microcontroller RL78/I1D.

The kit contains 4 boards which are demonstrators of the most common detector types available in the market:

-Glass break detector and motion detector used mainly in security & surveillance system

-Monoxide carbon detector and smoke detector used in human protection system.

The user can easily test these 4 detector boards. Indeed all the boards contained into the Detect it! kit are

preprogrammed and ready for quick demonstration.

The boards demonstrate the new Renesas microcontroller RL78/I1D specifically designed for detector applications,

thanks to its low power features, enhanced analog front end and smart peripherals.

The boards are designed to allow some flexibility. For example, nearly all pins of the microcontroller are connected to

some header, the user can chose between power by line or power from a battery, the user can easily add a PMOD

extension thanks to the 12 bit standard pin header sold onto the board.

User can connect the boards to external tool for debugging and flashing the boards.

1. Hardware overview

The solution kit Detect it! includes 4 different types of detector demonstrator:

-Glass Break detector demonstrator

-Carbon Monoxide detector demonstrator (CO detector)

-Motion detector demonstrator

-Smoke detector demonstrator

The purpose of those boards is to show that the Renesas microcontroller RL78/I1D MCU - used in each board - is a

perfect device for implementing low power sensor designs for detectors with a minimum of external components. In

each case, the board shows a different detection using the RL78/I1D and its embedded analog peripherals such as

internal operational-amplifiers, comparators and optimized power saving MCU features. The new RL78/I1D has some

major advantages for detection against previous RL78 MCU families.

The Renesas MCU RL78/I1D has specific features that can benefit to such type of detectors/sensors, for example

usually requiring low power features like low average current drain and long battery life.

The RL78/I1D MCU has low power clock/timer and safety features in STOP mode that needs less than 1µA total, even

when Real-Time-Counter operated with 32kHz crystal, Watchdog timer operated with 15kHz clock, 12-bit interval

timer and Low Voltage Detect functions are all enabled, and all RAM data retained.

The RL78/I1D also has integrated operational amplifiers and comparators that can be used for sensor measurements at

low power. Current drain for the RL78/I1D integrated operational amplifiers and comparators depends on factors such

as external bias resistor values, which operational amplifier and comparator modes are used and how many channels are

enabled during standby. The integrated operational amplifiers of the RL78/I1D have both a low power mode and high

speed mode. In Low Power mode, the operational amplifier is typically drawing about 2.5µA typical for the first

channel (plus ~2.0µA per each additional channel) with GainBandWidth (GBW) = 40kHz. In High Speed mode, the

current draw is around 140µA typical for first channel (plus ~120µA per each additional channel) with GBW =

1.7MHz.

All boards have a different sensor depending on the measurement that needs to be done:

Glass Break detector demonstrator use a microphone to detect noise that emulate glass break event.

Carbon monoxide detector (CO detector) demonstrator uses a chemical sensor

Motion detector demonstrator use a specific PIR sensor based on infrared technology to detect movement.

Smoke detector demonstrator use a smoke chamber, with emitter and receptor diode

All boards are processing the measurement coming from these sensors with amplification and filtering stage done by the

microcontroller.

There is possibility to power each board by battery (3V lithium battery) or by power supply. All the detector boards

demonstrate a low current consumption. For the purpose of the demonstration, the goal was to achieve a battery life of 4

years or more using a CR123 lithium battery. Further optimization can be done in true application to minimize further

the current consumption of the board. Only one battery CR123 is provided into the kit for the 4 boards.

2. Detector application brief explanation

Here are brief explanation of function of each board, including top level block diagram.

Glass Break detector board design explanation

The Glass Break detector is designed to start alarm when a glass break sound event occurred. By consequence the goal

is to start alert when high frequency sound is detected, and to filter all loud sounds such as loud hand clap, slamming

door, book slammed down on a table or barking dog. It was designed to detect simulated glass break event, such as

emulated by the Interlogix 5709C-W glass break simulator.

DETECT-IT RL78/I1D detector boards kit Kit User Manual

UM-YDETECT-IT-RL78 V1.30 Page 6 of 59

Figure Glass Break sensor block diagram

The microphone is the first element of the analog front end. The microphone is used as the sensor for glass break event.

The microphone used is an Electret with frequency response from 25Hz to 16kHz.

The microphone is AC coupled to both a low pass and high pass sections, so that microphone output DC bias variations

does not affect the operational amplifier filter bias points:

•2-stage low pass filter uses 2 channels (Ch0 and Ch1) of RL78/I1D internal operational amplifiers in low power

mode at about 4.5µA typical current drain total.

The first stage has a nominal gain of 31 and a roll-off/cut-off frequency @ 34Hz.

The second stage has a nominal gain of 26 at roll-off/cut-off frequency @ 154Hz.

Therefore in both cases, GBWP (gain x frequency product) used on each stage is less that the operational

amplifier GBW = 40 kHz rating in low power mode. Since the operational amplifiers have a low current drain in

low power mode, they can be left on constantly to monitor a loud transient sound event.

•2-stage high pass filter uses 2 channels (Ch2 and Ch3) of RL78/I1D internal operational amplifiers in high speed

mode at about 262µA total for both channels typical current drain.

The first stage has a nominal gain of 20 and upper roll-off/cut-off frequency @ 24kHz.

The second stage has a nominal gain of 5 and upper roll-off/cut-off frequency @ 1447Hz.

Therefore in both cases, the GBWP (gain x frequency product) used is less that the operational amplifier GBW =

1.7 MHz rating in high speed mode. Since the operational amplifiers have a higher current drain (>100µA per

channel) in high speed mode, they are only turned on intermittently when analyzing a loud sound transient event.

So in glass break detector demonstration, the 4 operational amplifiers are used.

A buzzer is used to give the alarm, it is managed by the MCU (transistor driver).

The push button is used for the reset function.

The board can be powered by a 3V lithium battery (CR123). It can also be powered by power supply (E1 power supply

or external power). One battery CR123 is provided into the kit for the 4 boards. The E1 debugger is not provided.

Caution: Battery should never be installed when using E1 power supply or external power supply via CN02/CN01.

CO detector design explanation

The carbon monoxide detector is designed to alarm when the concentration of CO gas is measured at a preset level of

100ppm. A higher threshold level can be set in software if desired.

DETECT-IT RL78/I1D detector boards kit Kit User Manual

UM-YDETECT-IT-RL78 V1.30 Page 7 of 59

The chemical sensor CO sensor canister is used to detect CO gas at 100ppm +/- 10 ppm and greater. An aerosol such as

CO Check ™ or Model HO-CO rev2 test CO gas can be used to simulate an event.

In the case of the CO detector, only 2 operational amplifiers are used: they are used to process CO sensor current to

voltage and look for CO gas exceeding the pre-determined threshold.

Figure CO sensor block diagram

The CO chemical sensor is the first element of the analog front end. The CO gas sensor is used as the sensor for

concentration of CO gas. It is a CO sensor canister (Figaro TGS5042 CO gas sensor) and it is used to provide a linear

output current that is proportional with CO gas concentration. Its specification is 1.2nA-2.4nA per PPM, and the

calibrated output value is printed on the canister (for example 1402 indicates 1.402nA/PPM).

The CO sensor is connected to 2-stage processing analog front end:

1 stage DC bias: uses single channel (Ch1) of RL78/I1D internal operational amplifier in low power mode at

about 2.25µA typical current drain. This stage implements a voltage follower configuration from a resistive

divider at VDD/11 (nominally 0.3Volt @ VDD = 3.3V) and provides a low impedance to the CO sensor

negative terminal bias point.

1 stage Trans-conductance amplifier: uses single channel (Ch0) of RL78/I1D internal operational amplifier in

low power mode at about 2.25µA typical current drain.

For the both the DC bias and Trans conductance amplifier configurations, the required frequency response is less

than 1Hz and the operational amplifier GBW = 40kHz rating in low power mode is more than adequate. Since

the 2 operational amplifier channels together have ~4.5µA typical current drain in low power mode, they can be

left on without a huge increase in STOP/standby mode current. As the CO sensor has a relatively long time

constant (>10 seconds) to fully react to the CO gas concentration levels, the operational amplifiers need to be left

on constantly.

So in this CO sensor detector demonstration, only 2 operational amplifiers are used.

A buzzer is used to give the alarm, it is managed by the MCU (transistor driver).

The push button is used connected, but not used in the CO detector demonstrator.

The board can be powered by a 3V lithium battery (CR123). It can also be powered by power supply (E1 power supply

or external power). One battery CR123 is provided into the kit for the 4 boards. The E1 debugger is not provided.

Caution: Battery should never be installed when using E1 power supply or external power supply via CN02/CN01.

Motion detector design explanation

The Motion detector demonstration can alarm when a human moves within 4 meters in front of the PIR (Pyroelectric

InfraRed) sensor within an angle of +/-45degrees vertically, and +/-70 degrees horizontally as measured from the

normal (apex) point perpendicular to the front of PIR sensor surface.

For this Motion sensor design, the 2 integrated operational amplifiers are used to monitor PIR sensor amplified voltage

and look for PIR levels exceeding the pre-determined thresholds. The operational amplifiers are used in high speed

mode in this Motion sensor demonstrator.

Figure Motion sensor block diagram:

The PIR (Pyroelecctric InfraRed) sensor is the first element of the Analog Front End. The muRata part number IRA-

E700STO PIR sensor is used to detect IR energy changes that are detected when a warm object such as a human being

comes into the range of the sensor. PIR sensing of infrared energy is further enhanced by a white, translucent Fresnel

lens placed in front of the PIR transducer. The Fresnel lens has a hemispheric shape with a honey comb shaped cells in

the plastic mold. These Fresnel lens cell shapes then enhance the sensed IR energy peak-to-peak voltage changes as the

human being advances across the front of PIR sensor

The PIR sensor is connected to 2-stage processing analog front end:

The first stage AC amplifier uses single channel Ch1 of RL78/I1D internal operational-amplifier in low power

mode at about 2.25µA typical current drain. This stage is AC coupled from the PIR sensor output to Ch1, so as

to eliminate any PIR DC bias variations. The stage 1 amplifier has a nominal gain of x101, and an upper roll-off

frequency ~15.9Hz.

The second stage AC amplifier: uses single op-amp channel Ch0 has a nominal gain of x33.9 max (x6.7min) at

roll-off/cut-off frequency @32.9HZ max (6.5HZ min). The gain of this 2

stage is adjust by the 900KΩ

potentiometer (labeled JP9). The input of the 2

stage is AC coupled (DC-blocked) from 1

stage (AMP1O)

output. However the output of 2

stage (AMP0O) is DC coupled to ADC input ANI4 and Comparator input

IVREF0. In all cases of the 1

stage and 2

stage Amplifier settings, GBWP (gain x frequency product) used on

each stage is less that the op-amp GBW = 40KHZ rating in low power mode. Since the op-amps have a low

current drain in low power mode, they can be left on constantly to monitor PIR sensor pulse energy. The output

of AMP0O is monitored by Comparator input IVCMP0, which is on the same MCU pin as AMP0O. The

explanation of Comparator function to trigger MCU wakeup is below.

So in this Motion sensor detector demonstration, only 2 operational amplifiers are used.

DETECT-IT RL78/I1D detector boards kit Kit User Manual

UM-YDETECT-IT-RL78 V1.30 Page 9 of 59

Note : The motion sensor board has a second/alternate PIR sensor connected to MCU internal operational amplifier

channels Ch2 and Ch3. However, these Ch2/Ch3 operational amplifiers are not currently activated by the

current Firmware revision, then the second PIR sensor will not draw current. (However there is an additional

current drain thru R67 and R93 of about 0.34uA @3.3V that could be eliminated by removing either of these

resistors).

A buzzer is used to give the alarm, it is managed by the MCU (transistor driver).

The push button is used for the reset function.

The board can be powered by a 3V lithium battery (CR123). It can also be powered by power supply (E1 power supply

or external power). One battery CR123 is provided into the kit for the 4 boards. The E1 debugger is not provided.

Caution: Battery should never be installed when using E1 power supply or external power supply via CN02/CN01.

Smoke detector design explanation

The Smoke detector is an infrared reflective smoke sensor type. It will alert when smoke (or simulated smoke) is

detected for 3 seconds.

In order to test the smoke detector board, you can use product like “smoke check” or “smoke in a can” brand spray in

order to simulated smoke. The board will work with real smoke as well. The board is designed to reject any ambient

infrared light from direct/indirect sunlight or man-made IR sources. For the smoke sensor, the integrated operational

amplifiers of the RL78/I1D are used to perform the current to voltage (trans-conductance) conversion needed to detect

IR photodiode avalanche (reverse bias) current when reflected IR light is present. Only 2 operational amplifiers are used

in the Smoke detector demonstrator, and they are operating in High Speed mode. The RL78/I1D comparators are not

used for this Smoke detector design.

Figure Smoke sensor block diagram

The optical smoke chamber is the first element of the analog front end, this chamber is used to reduce the ambient light.

Inside an Infrared emitting LED and Infrared Photodiode are used to detect smoke particles by reflected IR light.

This optical smoke chamber is connected to 2 operational amplifiers of the RL78/I1D:

-First stage (DC) trans-conductance (current to voltage) amplifier

-Second stage DC amplifier, to provided additional DC gain.

The on-chip comparators are not used in the Smoke sensor board.

A buzzer is used to give the alarm, it is managed by the MCU (transistor driver).

The push button is used for the reset function.

The board can be powered by a 3V lithium battery (CR123). It can also be powered by power supply (E1 power supply

or external power). One battery CR123 is provided into the kit for the 4 boards. The E1 debugger is not provided.

Caution: Battery should never be installed when using E1 power supply or external power supply via CN02/CN01.
