M2x40 Mote Datasheet Dust Networks™ 8
6.0 Pinout
The M2x40 has two 11-pin Samtec MTMM-111-04-S-S-175-3 (or equivalent) connectors on the bottom side for handling all
of the I/O. The third pin in each of the connectors is not populated, and serves as a key for alignment. The connectors are
mounted on opposite edges of the long axis of the M2x40.
6.1 M2x40 Pinout
The M2x40 provides a bidirectional flow-controlled serial interface (serial protocol is specified in section Error! Reference
source not found.).

RST
¯¯¯
Active low reset Type 1 In
The RST
¯¯¯
input pin is internally pulled up, and connecting it is optional. When driven active low, the mote is hardware reset
until the signal is deasserted. Refer to section 7.1 for timing requirements on the RST
¯¯¯
pin. Note that the mote may also be
reset using the mote serial command (see Mote Serial API guide).
The TIME
¯¯¯¯
input pin is optional, and must either be driven or pulled up with a 5.1 MΩ
resistor. Unless noted otherwise, all
signals are active low.
