Introduction
The STEVAL-WESU1 is a System Evaluation Board designed to provide a cost effective solution
for precise motion sensing in wearable applications. The system is featuring a low power ARM
Cortex-M3 microcontroller unit (STM32L151), an iNEMO inertial module (LSM6DS3), a high
performance magnetometer (LIS3MDL), a barometric pressure sensor (LPS25HB), a Bluetooth®
low energy wireless network processor (BLUENRG-MS) and power management circuitry that
allows fast charging and precise energy estimation (STNS01 and STC3115). The connectivity
granted by the best in class BLUENRG-MS and supported by the integrated balun (BALF-NRG-
01D3) permit to maximize the RF performances with low area occupancy and design effort and
pass the RF Test for FCC certification (FCC ID: S9NWESU1) and IC certification (IC ID: 8976C-
WESU1).
An Android and iOS APP, available on Google Play and Apple Store, can be used for displaying
information sent by the STEVAL-WESU1 through BLE connectivity as well as for setting operative
modes.

  • Page 8: Hardware Description

    Up to 8 Kbyte of FIFO with dynamic allocation of significant data (i.e. external sensors, time stamp, etc) allows the overall power saving of the system.. ST’s family of MEMS sensor modules leverages the robust and mature manufacturing processes already used for the production of micro machined accelerometers and gyroscopes.

    2.4.1 STNS01 and STLQ015 The STNS01 is a linear charger for single-cell Li-Ion batteries. In STEVAL-WESU1 system it is configured as battery charger and as power path selected between USB power source and battery power source. The STNS01's battery charger is designed to charge single cell Li-Ion batteries up to 4.2 V using a CC-CV charging algorithm (see STNS01 datasheet for more details).
