Xadow

本条目需按重新排版、编写

Xadow is a set of kits which contains several modules, such as Xadow Main Board, Xadow LED, Xadow OLED, Xadow BLE Slave and Xadow barometer etc. It is sensitive and smart, and easy to cascade connection with fine-augmentability. These modules’ features of portability, flexible cascade connection make it suited to such occasions in which have higher request on size and weight. For instance, in wearable equipment and art design. We have used Xadow kits to design a few sets of wearable devices. It is possible that a better design will occur in your mind when you hold the Xadow.

Feature

Modular design& Easy to cascade connection
Make you have the option of flexibility to connect certain modules for your own design.
Small& light
Make Xadow be your miniaturization design’s best partner.
Low power consumption
To make the devices compact and also to provide enduring power for the devices, we have very strict control over power dissipation while designing the products.
High quality
Modules are connected by FFC cable, thus, you can bend them as much as possible for your shape design.

Xadow I/O Illustration

Xadow modules cascades with Each other with FFC cables. All the modules share the same bus includes IIC, SPI, UART and digital&analog Pins. The table below shows the communication details between Xadow modules with the Xadow mainboard:

Xadow Modules	Control Mode	P1	P2	P4	P5	P7
Xadow - 3-Axis Accelerometer	IIC				IIC Address is 0x53
Xadow - BaroMeter	IIC				IIC Address is 0x77
Xadow - BLE Slave	Serial					RX/TX
Xadow - Breakout
Xadow - LED Controller	IIC				IIC Address is 0x04
Xadow - OLED	IIC				IIC Address is 0x3C
Xadow - Vibration Motor	Digital Signal		H	H
Xadow - RTC	IIC				IIC Address is 0x68
Xadow - Buzzer	Digital Signal	H	H
Xadow - Digital Compass	IIC				IIC Address is 0x1E
Xadow - Motor					TBD
Xadow - GPS	Serial					RX/TX
Xadow - Storage	IIC				IIC Address are 0x50 and 0x51
Xadow - NFC	IIC				IIC Address is 0x24

Xadow - Vibration Motor is controlled by two pins.it works when P2 and P4 are high level simultaneously. So does the Xadow - Buzzer.

Skin for Xadow

Metal style xadow watch

Put the OLED module、Xadow Main Board、Xadow RTC on the inside of the shell. Designed to be a personalized electronic watch.

It can be worn on the arm with a belt.

You can also use a string to wear on the chest:

Xadow Chewing Gum

Place Xadow Main Board, Xadow barometer, Xadow BLE Slave or others inside the shell and put it on your shirt pocket, it can always view the current air pressure, height, or the vibration motor vibrates to remind you when the phone receives a twitter message.
