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 M1 is the MIFA onboard antenna in the 2.4G Wi-Fi band.

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.

Production instructions

  • Preferentially use the wave soldering machine to solder the module, which is recommended for Tuya-developed modules that are vertically inserted into PCBs. Use hand soldering only when there is no operational wave soldering machine. Complete soldering within 24 hours after the module is unpacked. If not, vacuum pack the module again.
  • Required materials for soldering:
    • Wave soldering machine
    • Wave soldering fixture
    • Constant-temperature iron
    • Wave solder bar, wire, and flux
    • Oven temperature tester
  • Baking equipment:
    • Cabinet oven
    • Anti-static heat-resistant trays
    • Anti-static heat-resistant gloves
  • Bake the module if any of the following conditions are met:
    • The vacuum package is damaged before the module is unpacked.
    • The package does not contain a humidity indicator card (HIC).
    • After the module is unpacked, the HIC shows that 30% and higher rate circles are pink.
    • Production is not completed within 72 hours after the module is unpacked.
  • Baking settings:
    • Baking temperature: 65±5°C in reel pack mode and 125±5°C in tray pack mode
    • Baking time: 48 hours in reel pack mode and 12 hours in tray pack mode
    • Alarm temperature: 70°C in reel pack mode and 130°C in tray pack mode
    • Production-ready temperature after natural cooling: < 36°C
    • Number of baking times: 1
    • Rebaking condition: Production is not completed within 72 hours after baking.
  • Do not wave solder modules that have been unpacked for over three months. Electroless nickel immersion gold (ENIG) is used for the PCBs. If the solder pads are exposed to the air for over three months, they will be oxidized severely and dry joints or solder skips may occur. Tuya is not liable for such problems and consequences.
  • Throughout the production process, take electrostatic discharge (ESD) protective measures.
  • For good product quality, ensure that the following items meet requirements:
    • Flux amount
    • Wave height
    • Amount of tin dross and copper in the solder pot
    • Wave soldering fixture window and thickness
    • Oven temperature curve for wave soldering

Recommended Oven temperature curve

Set the oven temperature to a value recommended for wave soldering. The peak temperature is 260±5°C. Figure 6-6 shows the oven temperature curve for wave soldering.
