XY1100 CAT-NB SoC from Xinyi (New Wing)


XY1100 is a hybrid NB-IoT SoC with CMOS PA and software radio technologies, developed by Xinyi (New Wing) Shanghai. The key features are:

  • Dual core architecture: MCU + DSP
  • A Cortex-M3 running on 240MHz
  • 900KB RAM and 417KB user flash
  • RX: -134dBm, Tx: 23dBm
  • 690-960MHz, 1.71-2.2GHz
  • QFN52
  • Support OpenCPU software architecture
  • Support AT modem interface
Assessment
  • It is a low cost NB-IoT SoC with software radio and CMOS PA.
  • It can support multiple modem technologies only if you get support from the R&D team.
  • It support on board design, instead of module based design.
  • It has been verified by major operators in China, so its quality is accepted.
  • Recommended for large volume applications.
  • Although it has complete toolchain, but it is key account oriented product, not very friendly to OSHW community.

Firmata for LPC812 is available now

Image
    pyFirmata and Firmata for LPC812 As mentioned in previous blog, I ported Firmata from Arduino to my LPC812MiniKit in order to instantiate MCU on board.  I used pyFirmata as the starting point for my demo testing code. And it can be used a baseline for future desktop applications in Windows/Linux/OSX.   In microcontroller side, Firmata for LPC812's footprint is 9KB ROM and 1KB RAM, including serial driver, ring buffer management, printf, system timers, SCT, PWM and firmata protocol parsers.   Quick testing for analog channels I have learnt a testing trick from Sparkfun, print analog bar in console. By this way, we can quick check analog channels such as PWM, ADC, DAC or sensor raw data. It works like a osilloscope, excepts vertial scanning.   SCT PWM library During my development, I found some problemes and bugs. Among them, SCT based PWM takes longer time than my expectation. I have to say, NXP's SCT is a great and flexible pheripheral. And they have of...
