- Page 5 When disassembling the Tracker One, be careful when removing the lid. The NFC antenna and LiPo battery are mounted on the lid, and the NFC antenna cable is short. Carefully remove the NFC U.FL connector before fully removing the lid of the case. Reconnect to (9). The USB-C connector is normally connected to the nRF52840 MCU. It can be connected to the GNSS module by using the USB-C switch (17). The normal state is 1-4 OFF and 5-6 ON to connect the USB to the nRF52840. To connect the USB- C to the u-blox GNSS, turn 1-4 ON and 5-6 OFF. Disconnect the USB-C and the LiPo battery before changing the switch settings. The JTAG connector is not populated at the factory. The connector is a Samtec FTSH-105-01-F-DV- K 10 position (2x5), 1.27mm pitch.

Note: Version 003 and earlier of this datasheet had a different pin numbering for M8 connector that didn't match the connector manufacturer's numbering. Only the numbering has changed; the function of the pin at a given location is unchanged and the change should not affect existing designs. MCU GPIO is limited to 3.3V maximum. CAN Bus specifications can be found in the Tracker SoM datasheet. 6.0 to 30 VDC at 2A when using the M8 connector. 6.0 - 90 VDC at 2A when connecting directly to the board. 5V, 370 mA maximum. Controlled by the CAN_PWR GPIO. Additional information on M8 cables and connectors can be found in the M8 Accessories Datasheet.

- Page 8 Because this is an analog switch, the nRF52840 current limitations, 2 mA in standard drive (the default), and 9 mA in high drive also apply on the M8 side of the analog switch. The switch is rated up to 300 MHz, higher than the highest UART or I2C baud rate. The 3.3V recommended maximum for GPIO also applies on the M8 connector. The CAN bus has a separate hardware transceiver and is not considered to be GPIO and does not have a 3.3V limitation.

- Page 10 POWERING THE TRACKER CARRIER BOARD There are several options for powering the carrier board: The MCU USB connector (USB-C). If using a laptop with a USB-A to USB-C cable and a 500 mA USB port, you should also use the LiPo battery. With an true USB-C port and cable, or a 2A tablet charger, you can power only by USB. The VIN connector (6 to 30 VDC at 2A on the M8 connector, or 6 to 90 VDC at 2A to the B8B-PH connector on the board). This is useful with an external power supply. The LiPo connector. This is typically used with a LiPo battery. USB CONNECTOR There is a single USB C connector on the carrier board. On the Tracker One, this exits the enclosure and is IP67 rated. A set of DIP switches on the carrier board allow this port to be connected to either the MCU (normal) or u-blox GNSS (for firmware updates). The normal state is 1-4 OFF and 5-6 ON to connect the USB to the nRF52840. To connect the USB-C to the u-blox GNSS, turn 1-4 ON and 5-6 OFF. Disconnect the USB-C and the LiPo battery before changing the switch settings. LED INDICATORS The RGB LED default behavior is: Red breathing: Attempting to connect to the cellular network Yellow breathing: Connecting to the cloud, weaker cellular signal Green breathing: Connecting to the cloud, good cellular signal Yellow solid: Connected to the cloud, weaker cellular signal Green solid: Connected to the cloud, good cellular signal Alternatively the LED can be configured to the typical Particle color scheme (blinking green, blinking cyan, breathing cyan) via device or cloud configuration. Custom device firmware can provide other color schemes if desired. The CHRG LED indicates the charge status: Off: Not charging or no power On: Charging Blinking: Charge fault Flickering: No battery The GNSS LED indicates the GNSS fix status: Off: GNSS is powered off. Blinking (1 Hz): Attempting to get a GNSS fix On: Has a GNSS fix.
