X4C007 - Datasheet

Ultra Wideband (UWB) Impulse Radar Sensor

Rev. C - Advance - TBD-2020

Key Features

• Complete Ultra Wideband (UWB) impulse radar sensor module.

• Accurate human presence detection with very high sensitivity.

• Programmable detection range from 0.3 to 1.6 m.

• Sees through any material except metal, operates at sub 10 GHz.

• Low power consumption, typically less than 2 mW in No Presence state.

• Advanced power management enabling low power duty cycle controlled operation.

• Industrial operating temperature range, -40°C to +85°C.

• Designed for world-wide regulatory compliance.

• Bi-phase coding of transmitted pulses for spectrum spreading.

• Built-in antennas, no external circuitry required.

• I2C interface for small form factor systems.

• Requires few external components enabling small form-factor systems with low BOM cost.

Product Description

The X4C007 is an Ultra Wideband (UWB) short-range impulse radar sensor module, designed for unlicensed

operation in world-wide markets.The X4C007 contains all required circuitry, such as antennas, clocks, etc. and

can be connected directly to existing systems through a standard I2C interface.

The X4C007 sensor is extremly sensitive and can detect human presence based on respiration motion alone.

The sensor accurately detects presence within the detection zone and has fully configurable range limits.

The sensor reports presence state as well as range to target when presence is detected.

Applications

• Human presence detection for computing devices such as laptops, 2-in-1s, monitors, etc.

X4C007 - Datasheet 3.2.2. Product Integrations Guidelines The X4C007 is designed for integration with the end product and has requirements for material and spacing as shown below in order to deliver best possible directivity and sensitivity. The sensor is designed to accept some spacing variations to the required metal backplane, and the airgap to front material of plastics, glass, carbon etc. The metal backplane must have a minimum size equal to the sensor, and preferably be larger.
