10 Configuration and Ordering Information
The P330 is available either as a single board (OEM Module) or as part of a Ranging and
Localization Development Kit. When ordered as part of a Kit, the P330 module is provided with a
number of hardware and software accessories.
The hardware accessories include the following:
 Enclosure for P330 module: Housing made of damage-resistant plastic with clear
polycarbonate cover. Provides protection from improper handling during evaluation, testing,
and development activities.
 Broadspec antenna: Time Domain’s standard UWB antenna as described in Section 7.
 USB wall charger, battery, and cables: The USB battery can drive the P330 directly for
approximately 10.0 hours. The USB wall charger can drive the P330 directly from an AC
power source or can be used to recharge the battery. A short USB cable is provided for
connecting the battery to the P330 USB power port and a longer cable is provided for driving
the P330 either through the USB power port or for communicating to the P330 through the
USB communications. Most (but not all) commercially available USB battery packs will
drive the unit, so the user has the freedom to experiment with alternate battery approaches.
The P330 software offerings include the following:
 RangeNet / RangeNet Lite: RangeNet is Time Domain’s GUI for demonstrating two
different ranging and localization capabilities. First, it allows the user to measure the
distance between two P330 units using TW-TOF ranging. Second, it allows the user to define
a network of P330s. More importantly, this network has been optimized for use with TW-
TOF ranging. RangeNet supports both the ALOHA and TDMA network protocols. It can
also be configured to transfer data. RangeNet “Lite” is a node-locked version of RangeNet in
that it is limited to operation with a maximum of 10 nodes. RangeNet Lite is provided to
allow the user to easily experiment with units both as standalone pairs and as members of a
network. Users interested in unrestricted operation of RangeNet should contact the factory
for information on purchase and licensing options.
All of the software packages come with sample C code and sample MATLAB code to illustrate the
API interface from a Host computer to the P330.
