1. Introduction

1.1 Description

SLWSTK6120A provides a complete development platform for Silicon Labs' Wizard Gecko WGM110Wi-Fi Module. The core of the

SLWSTK6120A is the Wireless Starter Kit Mainboard which features an on-board J-Link debugger, a virtual COM port interface, an LCD

display and a humidity/temperature sensor and through-holes to access all the pins of the Wizard Gecko Wi-Fi Module. The Mainboard

also contains two push-buttons and LEDs which can be used in user application testing. The WSTK Mainboard is paired with an Wizard

Gecko WGM110 Wi-Fi Module Radio Board that plugs directly into the Mainboard. The Radio Board includes the WGM110 Module with

a built-in high performance chip antenna, a microSD card slot and a USB interface for data transfer and power supply connection ena-

bling stand-alone testing.

WSTK6120A Wireless Starter Kit is also supplied with an Expansion Board (BRD8006A Add-on Board) that can be connected to the

WSTK Mainboard expansion header. The Expansion Board contains additional peripherals such as an accelerometer, buttons, LEDs, a

joystick and pads for I2C expansion.

To support software development with SLWSTK6120A for the Wizard Gecko WGM110 Wi-Fi Module Silicon Labs also offers a free

SDK. The SDK includes BGTool™ which can be used to configure the WGM110 Module and test its functionality.

4.1 Breakout pads

Most of the WGM110's pins are routed from the Radio Board to breakout pads at the top and bottom edges of the Wireless Starter Kit

Mainboard. A 2.54 mm pitch pin header can be soldered on for easy access to the pins. The figure below shows you how the pins of

the WGM110 map out to the pin numbers printed on the breakout pads. To see the available functions on each, please refer to the

4.2 Expansion Header

On the right hand side of the board an angled 20-pin expansion header is provided to allow connection of peripherals or plug-in boards.

The connector contains a number of I/O pins that can be used with most of the WGM110 Wizard Gecko's features. Additionally, the

VMCU, 3V3 and 5V power rails are also exported.

The connector follows a standard which ensures that commonly used peripherals such as an SPI, a UART and an I2C bus are available

on fixed locations in the connector. The rest of the pins are used for general purpose I/O. This allows the definition of expansion boards

that can plug into a number of different Silicon Labs Starter Kits.

The figure below shows the pin assignment of the expansion header for the Wizard Gecko Wi-Fi Module Wireless Starter Kit. Because

of limitations in the number of available GPIO pins, some of the expansion header pins are shared with kit features.

The pin-routing available on the WGM110 Module is very flexible, so most peripherals can be routed to any pin. However, many pins

are shared between the Expansion Header and other functions on the Wireless STK Mainboard. Table 4.1 Expansion Header Pinout on

page 5 includes an overview of the mainboard features that share pins with the Expansion Header.

4.3 Debugging

Note: The Wireless Starter Kit Mainboard does not support this feature when used together with the Wizard Gecko WGM110 Module;

however, BGTool can be used to debug BGAPI commands and error situations.

Note: For more information on BGTool go to Silicon Labs web page http://www.silabs.com/start-wgm and download the UG160: Wizard

Gecko BGTool™ User's Guide.

The Debug Connector serves a dual purpose. Based on the "debug mode", which can be set up using Simplicity Studio. In the "Debug

IN" mode this connector allows an external debug emulator to be used with the on-board WGM110. In the "Debug OUT" mode this

connector allows the kit to be used as a debugger towards an external target. In the "Debug MCU" (default) mode this connector is

isolated from the debug interface of both the Board Controller and the on-board target device.

"The Debug Connector has three 'debug modes,' which are set using Simplicity Studio. The 'Debug MCU' mode is default and the two

other modes ('Debug IN' and 'Debug OUT') are set using Simplicity Studio.

Because this connector is automatically switched to support the different operating modes, it is only available when the Board Controller

is powered (J-Link USB cable connected). If debug access to the target device is required when the Board Controller is unpowered, this

should be done by connecting directly to the appropriate breakout pins.

The pinout of the connector follows that of the standard ARM Cortex Debug+ETM 19-pin connector. The pinout is described in detail

below.

Note that the pin-out matches the pin-out of an ARM Cortex Debug+ETM connector, but these are not fully compatible as pin 7 is physi-

cally removed from the Cortex Debug+ETM connector. Some cables have a small plug that prevent them from being used when this pin

is present. If this is the case, remove the plug, or use a standard 2x10 1.27 mm straight cable instead.

5. Power Supply and Reset

This section explains the power supply options and reset functionalities of the WSTK.

5.1 Radio Board Power Selection

The WGM110 Module on the Wireless Starter Kit can be powered by either one of the three sources listed below:

• USB Debug cable

• 2 x AA sized batteries using the external battery holder supplied with the WSTK

• USB Connector on the BRD4320A Radio Board

Selecting the power source is done with the slide switch in the lower left corner of the WSTK Mainboard. Figure 5.1 SLWSTK6120A

Power Switch on page 9 shows how the different power sources can be selected with the slide switch.

Figure 5.1 SLWSTK6120A Power Switch

With the switch in the AEM position, a low noise 3.3 V LDO on the WSTK Mainboard is used to power the Radio Board. This LDO is

again powered from the Debug USB cable.

With the WGM110 radio board, the USB position of the power switch is disconnected. Instead, a transistor switch on the radio board

itself connects the on-board regulator to the module power supply when the target USB cable is inserted. Please note that this happens

regardless of the power switch position, so the power switch should be set to USB or BAT when using the radio board USB connector

to avoid conflict. The transistor switch allows the radio board to be powered by a USB cable even when removed from the WSTK main-

board.

With the switch in the BAT position, the WGM110 Module is powered by 2 x AA sized batteries. This requires that the external battery

holder with 2 x AA batteries is connected to the Expansion Header (after removing the Expansion Board).

The BAT switch position is the recommended position when powering the Radio Board with an external power source, as it disconnects

the internal LDO.

Note: Please be aware that the current sourcing capabilities of a coin cell battery is too low in practical cases to supply Wi-Fi based

wireless applications.

Note: The Advanced Energy Monitor functionality is not supported when using the BRD4320A Radio Board with WSTK.
