Hardware overview
Mark Thompson edited this page 2024-04-13 12:34:46 -05:00
External
- Antenna (the connector is a female SMA, so the antenna needs to be male SMA, and not RPSMA)
- Encoder thumb wheel (on the H1 has a different layout, but the same functionality). Pushing the wheel down once to turn ON, or twice quickly to turn OFF.
- Directional pushbuttons and Enter/Select in the center
- CLK IN
- CLK OUT
- Micro usb port and next to it, charging led indicator (in the H2, this might flicker while charging but will mostly turn off when the battery is full)
- Headset/Microphone (standard smartphone 4 segment 3.5mm connector)
- Receive and transmit leds (indicates the current operation, since the HackRF is half-duplex, only one of this will be lit at every moment)
- Other status leds (1.8V: rail status, RF: internal power supply, USB: connection to host is active)
Note: In normal operation, 3.3V, 1.8V, RF lights will be ON.
- DFU mode button (check the firmware update procedure for details)
- 3.3V rail status led
- Reset button
Check care of PortaPack/HackRF for general guidelines of how to take care of your device.
PortaPack internals
- MicroSD card slot (insert the card with the contacts looking to the same direction as the screen)
- GPS module option (has not been implemented)
- Memory backup coin cell (compatible with CR1225 or CR1220 in the H2, and with the CR2032 or CR2025 in the H1)
- Speaker connector (yellow and red go to the speaker coil, black is ground and can be left disconnected)
- Battery connector
- TCXO clock (it might be populated with SMD components like in the upper image, unpopulated or populated with a shielded module)
- Headset/Microphone jack (In case of the H2 the internal speaker switches automatically when the headset is plugged)
- USB charging circuitry (only the units with battery; this is a standard power bank chipset)
- Audio amp circuitry
Tip
Adding a small bead of hot-glue on the top of the SD card slot, as shown here, will prevent the SD card from falling down inside the case when it's being inserted.
