This reference design is a low-power wireless subsystem solution that monitors motors using vibration sensing to determine if preventative maintenance is necessary. An FFT of the vibration data can be sent out to another device using either Bluetooth low energy or sub-1GHz wireless protocols. The low power usage and wireless capabilities of this subsystem solution enables it to run on a single coin cell battery, which allows for the device to be small, inexpensive and placed in difficult-to-reach locations. This makes this reference design an ideal alternative to both expensive maintenance that could have been preventatively avoided, as well as larger, more expensive monitors that require a wired connection.
A fully assembled board has been developed for testing and performance validation only, and is not available for sale.
