Pin definitions

As shown in the following figure, M1 needs an external MIC and speaker to complete voice interaction, which is required by default for voice modules.

We recommend the following processing methods for some peripherals:

  • Microphone (required): MIC pins are fixed and must be externally connected with two MICs. MIC spacing is recommended to be 40-80mm. TUYA technicians can be consulted for specific MIC specifications.

  • Horn (optional): For customers who need sound interaction, M1 has a built-in power amplifier and decoder, and a 1-2.6 W horn can be externally connected according to requirements. If no horn is needed, the following light interaction mode can also be selected.

  • Voice status indicator (optional): For customers who are cost-sensitive, cannot install speakers due to limited product space, or do not need voice feedback interaction, M1 also supports two-color indicator interaction, and users can not connect speakers or roots.

According to the feedback of the indicator light, the user is prompted for the result of voice control IoT.

Antenna

Type of antenna

The default PCB antenna for VWXR2-ES is the MIFA onboard antenna in the 2.4G Wi-Fi band with a gain of -0.25dBi.

Reduced antenna interference

In order to ensure the optimization of RF performance, it is recommended that the distance between the module antenna and other metal parts should be at least 15mm. Since M1 is used by the SMT process, it is pasted to the main control board and applied together with other components. Then the placement position and way of PCB antenna will directly affect RF performance. Here are the places we recommend and the places we don’t. It is recommended to use the placement position of scheme 1 and scheme 2.

The antenna is hollowed out outside the plate frame or near the antenna. The performance and individual module RF test performance is basically the same. If the design is limited, the PCB antenna must be placed on the bottom plate, you can refer to the placement method of plan 3. The antenna is in the plate frame, but there is no copper coating and wiring near the antenna. However, there is some loss of rf performance, which is about 1-2dbm attenuation. It is not recommended to use the placement position of plan 4, the antenna is in the plate frame, and the antenna is coated with copper or wire. The rf signal will be significantly attenuated.

  • Scheme 1: the antenna is outside the frame.
  • Scheme 2: the antenna is placed along the edge of the plate, and the bottom is hollowed out.

Scheme 3: the antenna is placed along the edge of the plate, and the bottom is not clad with copper Scheme 4: the antenna plate is placed in the frame, and the bottom is hollowed out.

PCB r### Production instructions

  1. The Tuya SMT module should be mounted by the SMT device. After being unpacked, it should be soldered within 24 hours. Otherwise, it should be put into the drying cupboard where the RH is not greater than 10%; or it needs to be packaged under vacuum again and the exposure time needs to be recorded (the total exposure time cannot exceed 168 hours).
    • SMT devices:
      • Mounter
      • SPI
      • Reflow soldering machine
      • Thermal profiler
      • Automated optical inspection (AOI) equipment
    • Baking devices:
      • Cabinet oven
      • Anti-electrostatic and heat-resistant trays
      • Anti-electrostatic and heat-resistant gloves
  2. Storage conditions for a delivered module:
    • The moisture-proof bag must be placed in an environment where the temperature is below 40°C and the relative humidity is lower than 90%.

    • The shelf life of a dry-packaged product is 12 months from the date when the product is packaged and sealed.

    • There is a humidity indicator card (HIC) in the packaging bag.

      VWXR2-ES Module Datasheet

  3. The module needs to be baked in the following cases:
    • The packaging bag is damaged before unpacking.
    • There is no HIC in the packaging bag.
    • After unpacking, circles of 10% and above on the HIC become pink.
    • The total exposure time has lasted for over 168 hours since unpacking.
    • More than 12 months has passed since the sealing of the bag.
  4. Baking settings:
    • Temperature: 60°C and ≤ 5% RH for reel package and 125°C and ≤5% RH for tray package (please use the heat-resistant tray rather than plastic container)
    • Time: 48 hours for reel package and 12 hours for tray package
    • Alarm temperature: 65°C for reel package and 135°C for tray package
    • Production-ready temperature after natural cooling: < 36°C
    • Re-baking situation: If a module remains unused for over 168 hours after being baked, it needs to be baked again.
    • If a batch of modules is not baked within 168 hours, do not use the reflow soldering to solder them. Because these modules are Level-3 moisture-sensitive devices, they are very likely to get damp when exposed beyond the allowable time. In this case, if they are soldered at high temperatures, it may result in device failure or poor soldering.
  5. In the whole production process, take electrostatic discharge (ESD) protective measures.
  6. To guarantee the passing rate, it is recommended that you use the SPI and AOI to monitor the quality of solder paste printing and mounting.
