Description The AT76C507 is a single-chip baseband controller that can handle IEEE 802.11b standard compliant data rates of up to 11 Mbps and provides all processing and functionality needed for the MAC protocol of IEEE 802.11b. The AT76C507 incorporates a USB Open Host Controller (OHC), which is capable of processing all of the data type lists. The OHC has four states, which define its responsibilities relating to USB signaling and bus states. It is also responsible for managing all aspects of framing for the USB. These responsibilities include sending SOF Tokens on the bus and communicating with the Host Controller Driver on frame-specific information. Because the USB does not provide a mechanism for attached devices to arbitrate for granting the bus, arbitration is predictive with the Host Controller. USB by necessity supports a number of different communication models between software and endpoints (Bulk, Control, Interrupt and Isochronous). The usage of the bus varies by the type of service. The approach used by the Host Controller is to have two levels of arbitration to select among the endpoints. The first level of arbitration is at the list level. Each endpoint type needing service is in a list of a corresponding type and the Host Controller selects which list to service. Within a list, endpoints are given equal priority insuring that all endpoints of a certain type have more or less equal service opportunities. The AT76C507 provides two USB Full-Speed (12 Mbits) ports. Besides the USB interface, the AT76C507 contains a WEP/TKIP engine block, an AES engine block, a MAC Support Unit (MSU), a 802.11b Baseband controller, two memory controllers and the ARM® subsystem consisting of an Interrupt Controller, two 32-bit timers and an address decoder unit. The ARM7TDMI core supports two alternative instruction sets. Powerful 32-bit code can be executed by the processor in ARM operating mode. However, a 16-bit instruction subset is also available in Thumb® mode. Thumb mode can be selected to exploit full processor power with limited external memory resources. Note that ARM7TDMI operating mode can be changed at run time with negligible overhead. 2 AT76C507 2384AS–WLAN–01/04 Atmel Corporation 2325 Orchard Parkway San Jose, CA 95131, USA Tel: 1(408) 441-0311 Fax: 1(408) 487-2600 Regional Headquarters Europe Atmel Sarl Route des Arsenaux 41 Case Postale 80 CH-1705 Fribourg Switzerland Tel: (41) 26-426-5555 Fax: (41) 26-426-5500 Asia Room 1219 Chinachem Golden Plaza 77 Mody Road Tsimshatsui East Kowloon Hong Kong Tel: (852) 2721-9778 Fax: (852) 2722-1369 Japan 9F, Tonetsu Shinkawa Bldg. 1-24-8 Shinkawa Chuo-ku, Tokyo 104-0033 Japan Tel: (81) 3-3523-3551 Fax: (81) 3-3523-7581 Atmel Operations Memory 2325 Orchard Parkway San Jose, CA 95131, USA Tel: 1(408) 441-0311 Fax: 1(408) 436-4314 RF/Automotive Theresienstrasse 2 Postfach 3535 74025 Heilbronn, Germany Tel: (49) 71-31-67-0 Fax: (49) 71-31-67-2340 Microcontrollers 2325 Orchard Parkway San Jose, CA 95131, USA Tel: 1(408) 441-0311 Fax: 1(408) 436-4314 La Chantrerie BP 70602 44306 Nantes Cedex 3, France Tel: (33) 2-40-18-18-18 Fax: (33) 2-40-18-19-60 ASIC/ASSP/Smart Cards 1150 East Cheyenne Mtn.
