The frequency accuracy of the external clock has to be within ±500ppm. ATWILC3000 Single Chip IEEE 802.11 b/g/n Link Controller with Integrated Bluetooth 4.0 [DATASHEET] Atmel-42390D-ATWILC3000-MUT-SmartConnect-Datasheet_05/2016 13 1 3 6 CPU and Memory Subsystems 6.1 Processor ATWILC3000 has a Cortus APS3 32-bit processor. This processor performs many of the MAC functions, including but not limited to association, authentication, power management, security key management, and MSDU aggregation/de-aggregation. In addition, the processor provides flexibility for various modes of operation, such as STA and AP modes. 6.2 Memory Subsystem The APS3 core uses a 256kB instruction/boot ROM (160kB for 802.11 and 96kB for Bluetooth) along with a 420kB instruction RAM (128kB for 802.11 and 292kB for Bluetooth), and a 128kB data RAM (64kB for 802.11 and 64kB for Bluetooth). In addition, the device uses a 160kB shared/exchange RAM (128kB for 802.11 and 32kB for Bluetooth), accessible by the processor and MAC, which allows the processor to perform various data management tasks on the TX and RX data packets. 6.3 Non-Volatile Memory (eFuse) ATWILC3000 has 768 bits of non-volatile eFuse memory that can be read by the CPU after device reset. This non-volatile one-time-programmable memory can be used to store customer-specific parameters, such as 802.11 MAC address, Bluetooth address, and various calibration information, such as TX power, crystal frequency offset, etc., as well as other software-specific configuration parameters. The eFuse is partitioned into six 128-bit banks. The bit map of the first and last banks is shown in Figure 6-1. The purpose of the first 80 bits in bank 0 and the first 56 bits in bank 5 is fixed, and the remaining bits are general-purpose software dependent bits, or reserved for future use. Currently the Bluetooth address is derived from the Wi-Fi MAC address (BT_ADDR=MAC_ADDR+1). This eliminates the need to program the first 56 bits in bank 5. Since each bank and each bit can be programmed independently, this allows for several updates of the device parameters following the initial programming, e.g. updating 802.11 MAC address or Bluetooth address (this can be done by invalidating the last programmed bank and programming a new bank). Refer to ATWILC3000 Programming Guide for the eFuse programming instructions. 14 ATWILC3000 Single Chip IEEE 802.11 b/g/n Link Controller with Integrated Bluetooth 4.0 [DATASHEET] 1 Atmel-42390D-ATWILC3000-MUT-SmartConnect-Datasheet_05/2016 4 4 48 8 Bank 0 F MAC ADDR 8 G 1 15 Freq.

Sections 7.1 and 7.2 describe the MAC and PHY in detail. 7.1 MAC 7.1.1 Features The ATWILC3000 IEEE802.11 MAC supports the following functions: IEEE 802.11b/g/n IEEE 802.11e WMM QoS EDCA/PCF multiple access categories traffic scheduling Advanced IEEE 802.11n features: 7.1.2 – Transmission and reception of aggregated MPDUs (A-MPDU) – Transmission and reception of aggregated MSDUs (A-MSDU) – Immediate Block Acknowledgement – Reduced Interframe Spacing (RIFS) Support for IEEE802.11i and WFA security with key management – WEP 64/128 – WPA-TKIP – 128-bit WPA2 CCMP (AES) Support for WAPI security Advanced power management – Standard 802.11 Power Save Mode – Wi-Fi Alliance WMM-PS (U-APSD) RTS-CTS and CTS-self support Supports either STA or AP mode in the infrastructure basic service set mode Supports independent basic service set (IBSS) Description The ATWILC3000 MAC is designed to operate at low power while providing high data throughput. The IEEE 802.11 MAC functions are implemented with a combination of dedicated data path engines, hardwired control logic, and a low-power, high-efficiency microprocessor. The combination of dedicated logic with a programmable processor provides optimal power efficiency and real-time response while providing the flexibility to accommodate evolving standards and future feature enhancements. Dedicated data path engines are used to implement data path functions with heavy computational requirements. For example, an FCS engine checks the CRC of the transmitting and receiving packets, and a cipher engine performs all the required encryption and decryption operations for the WEP, WPA-TKIP, WPA2 CCMP-AES, and WAPI security requirements. Control functions, which have real-time requirements, are implemented using hardwired control logic modules. These logic modules offer real-time response while maintaining configurability via the processor. Examples of hardwired control logic modules are the channel access control module (implements EDCA/HCCA, Beacon TX control, interframe spacing, etc.), protocol timer module (responsible for the Network Access Vector, back-off timing, timing synchronization function, and slot management), MPDU handling module, aggregation/deaggregation module, block ACK controller (implements the protocol requirements for burst block communication), and TX/RX control FSMs (coordinate data movement between PHY-MAC interface, cipher engine, and the DMA interface to the TX/RX FIFOs). 16 ATWILC3000 Single Chip IEEE 802.11 b/g/n Link Controller with Integrated Bluetooth 4.0 [DATASHEET] 1 Atmel-42390D-ATWILC3000-MUT-SmartConnect-Datasheet_05/2016 6 The MAC functions implemented solely in software on the microprocessor have the following characteristics: Functions with high memory requirements or complex data structures. Examples are association table management and power save queuing. Functions with low computational load or without critical real-time requirements. Examples are authentication and association. Functions, which need flexibility and upgradeability. Examples are beacon frame processing and QoS scheduling. 7.2 PHY 7.2.1 Features The ATWILC3000 IEEE802.11 PHY supports the following functions: 7.2.2 Single antenna 1x1 stream in 20MHz channels Supports IEEE 802.11b DSSS-CCK modulation: 1, 2, 5.5, and 11Mbps Supports IEEE 802.11g OFDM modulation: 6, 9, 12,18, 24, 36, 48, and 54Mbps Supports IEEE 802.11n HT modulations MCS0-7, 20MHz, 800 and 400ns guard interval: 6.5, 7.2, 13.0, 14.4, 19.5, 21.7, 26.0, 28.9, 39.0, 43.3, 52.0, 57.8, 58.5, 65.0, and 72.2Mbps IEEE 802.11n mixed mode operation Per packet TX power control Advanced channel estimation/equalization, automatic gain control, CCA, carrier/symbol recovery, and frame detection Description The ATWILC3000 WLAN PHY is designed to achieve reliable and power-efficient physical layer communication specified by IEEE 802.11b/g/n in single stream mode with 20MHz bandwidth. Advanced algorithms have been employed to achieve maximum throughput in a real world communication environment with impairments and interference. The PHY implements all the required functions such as FFT, filtering, FEC (Viterbi decoder), frequency, and timing acquisition and tracking, channel estimation and equalization, carrier sensing and clear channel assessment, as well as the automatic gain control. 7.3 802.11 b/g/n Radio Performance 7.3.1 Receiver Performance Radio performance under typical conditions: VBATT=3.6V; VDDIO=3.3V; temp.: 25°C.

With the exception of the SPI Slave and SDIO Slave host interfaces, which are selected using the dedicated SDIO_SPI_CFG pin, the other interfaces can be assigned to various pins by programming the corresponding pin muxing control register for each pin to a specific value between 0 and 6.The default values of these registers are 0, which is GPIO mode. Each digital I/O pin also has a programmable pull-up or pulldown. The summary of the available interfaces and their corresponding pin MUX settings is shown in Table 91.

I 2C Slave responds to the seven bit address value 0x60. The ATWILC3000 I 2C supports I2C bus Version 2.1 2000 and can operate in standard mode (with data rates up to 100Kb/s) and fast mode (with data rates up to 400Kb/s). The I2C Slave is a synchronous serial interface. The SDA line is a bidirectional signal and changes only while the SCL line is low, except for STOP, START, and RESTART conditions. The output drivers are open-drain to perform wire-AND functions on the bus. The maximum number of devices on the bus is limited by only the maximum capacitance specification of 400pF. Data is transmitted in byte packages. For specific information, refer to the Philips Specification entitled “The I2C -Bus Specification, Version 2.1”.

SDA can be configured on pin 42 (HOST_WAKEUP), and SCL can be configured on pin 41 (GPIO21).

The SPI Slave interface can be used for control and for serial I/O of 802.11 data. The SPI Slave pins are mapped as shown in Table 94. The RXD pin is same as Master Output, Slave Input (MOSI), and the TXD pin is same as Master Input, Slave Output (MISO). The SPI Slave is a full-duplex slave-synchronous serial interface that is available immediately following reset when Pin 12 (SDIO_SPI_CFG) is tied to VDDIO. Table 9-4. SPI Slave Interface Pin Mapping Pin # SPI Function 12 CFG: Must be tied to VDDIO 32 SSN: Active Low Slave Select 30 SCK: Serial Clock 34 RXD: Serial Data Receive (MOSI) 31 TXD: Serial Data Transmit (MISO) When the SPI is not selected, i.e., when SSN is high, the SPI interface will not interfere with data transfers between the serial-master and other serial-slave devices. When the serial slave is not selected, its transmitted data output is buffered, resulting in a high impedance drive onto the serial master receive line. The SPI Slave interface responds to a protocol that allows an external host to read or write any register in the chip as well as initiate DMA transfers. For the details of the SPI protocol and more specific instructions refer to ATWILC3000 Programming Guide.

The TXD pin is same as Master Output, Slave Input (MOSI), and the RXD pin is same as Master Input, Slave Output (MISO). The SPI Master interface supports all four standard modes of clock polarity and clock phase shown below.

The interface supports the 1-bit/4-bit SD transfer mode at the clock range of 0-50MHz. The Host can use this interface to read and write from any register within the chip as well as configure the ATWILC3000 for data DMA. To use this interface, pin 12 (SDIO_SPI_CFG) must be grounded. The SDIO Slave pins are mapped as shown in Table 9-9. Table 9-9. SDIO Interface Pin Mapping Pin # SPI Function 12 CFG: Must be tied to ground 35 DAT3: Data 3 34 DAT2: Data 2 32 DAT1: Data 1 31 DAT0: Data 0 30 CMD: Command 29 CLK: Clock When the SDIO card is inserted into an SDIO aware host, the detection of the card will be via the means described in SDIO specification. During the normal initialization and interrogation of the card by the host, the card will identify itself as an SDIO device. The host software will obtain the card information in a tuple (linked list) format and determine if that card’s I/O function(s) are acceptable to activate. If the card is acceptable, it will be allowed to power up fully and start the I/O function(s) built into it. The SD memory card communication is based on an advanced 9-pin interface (Clock, Command, and four data and three power lines) designed to operate at maximum operating frequency of 50MHz. The SDIO Slave interface has the following features: Meets SDIO card specification version 2.0 Host clock rate variable between 0 and 50MHz 1 bit/4-bit SD bus modes supported Allows card to interrupt host Responds to Direct read/write (IO52) and Extended read/write (IO53) transactions Supports Suspend/Resume operation The SDIO Slave interface timing is provided in Figure 9-6 and Table 9-10.

Timing based on 15pF output loading. 9.6 UART ATWILC3000 provides Universal Asynchronous Receiver/Transmitter (UART) interfaces for serial communication. The Bluetooth subsystem has two UART interfaces: a 4-pin interface for control, data transfer, and audio (BT UART1), and a 2-pin interface for debugging (BT UART2). The 802.11 subsystem has one 2-pin UART interface (Wi-Fi UART), which can be used for control, data transfer, or debugging. The UART interfaces are compatible with the RS-232 standard, where ATWILC3000 operates as Data Terminal Equipment (DTE). The 2-pin UART has receive and transmit pins (RXD and TXD), and the 4-pin UART has two additional pins used for flow control/handshaking: Request To Send (RTS) and Clear To Send (CTS). The pins associated with each UART interfaces can be enabled on several alternative pins by programming their corresponding pin MUX control registers (see below for available options). Also note that the UART RTS and UART CTS are used for hardware flow control; they MUST be connected to the host MCU UART and enabled for the UART interface to be functional. The UART features programmable baud rate generation with fractional clock division, which allows transmission and reception at a wide variety of standard and non-standard baud rates. The Bluetooth UART 28 ATWILC3000 Single Chip IEEE 802.11 b/g/n Link Controller with Integrated Bluetooth 4.0 [DATASHEET] 2 Atmel-42390D-ATWILC3000-MUT-SmartConnect-Datasheet_05/2016 8 input clock is selectable between 104MHz, 52MHz, 26MHz, and 13MHz. The clock divider value is programmable as 13 integer bits and three fractional bits (with 8.0 being the smallest recommended value for normal operation). This results in the maximum supported baud rate of 10MHz / 8.0 = 13MBd. The 802.11 UART input clock is selectable between 10MHz, 5MHz, 2.5MHz, and 1.25MHz. The clock divider value is programmable as 13 integer bits and three fractional bits (with 8.0 being the smallest recommended value for normal operation). This results in the maximum supported baud rate of 10MHz / 8.0 = 1.25MBd. The UART can be configured for seven or eight bit operation, with or without parity, with four different parity types (odd, even, mark, or space), and with one or two stop bits. It also has RX and TX FIFOs, which ensure reliable high speed reception and low software overhead transmission. FIFO size is 4x8 for both RX and TX direction. The UART also has status registers showing the number of received characters available in the FIFO and various error conditions, as well the ability to generate interrupts based on these status bits. An example of UART receiving or transmitting a single packet is shown in Figure 9-7. This example shows 7-bit data (0x45), odd parity, and two stop bits. For more specific instructions, refer to ATWILC3000 Programming Guide. Figure 9-7. 9.7 Example of UART RX or TX Packet PCM Interface ATWILC3000 provides a PCM/IOM interface for Bluetooth audio. This interface is compatible with industry standard PCM and IOM2 compliant devices, such as audio codecs, line interfaces, TDM switches, and others. The PCM audio interface supports both master and slave modes, full duplex operation, mono, and stereo. The interface operates at 8kHz frame rate and supports bit rates up to 512 bits/frame (4.096Mbps). The PCM interface pins are mapped as shown in Table 9-11. Table 9-11. 9.8 ATWILC3000 PCM Interface Pin Mapping Pin # PCM Function 36 CLK: Bi-directional clock input/output 37 SYNC: Bi-directional Frame sync (mono) or Left-Right Channel identifier (stereo) 38 D_IN: Serial data input 39 D_OUT: Serial data output GPIOs 18 General Purpose Input/Output (GPIO) pins, labeled GPIO 0-8 and 13-21, are available to allow for application specific functions. Each GPIO pin can be programmed as an input (the value of the pin can be read by the host or internal processor) or as an output (the output values can be programmed by the host or internal processor), where the default mode after power-up is input. GPIOs 7 and 8 are only available when the host does not use the SDIO interface, which shares two of its pins with these GPIOs. Therefore, for SDIO-based applications, 16 GPIOs (0-6 and 13-21) are available. For more specific instructions refer to ATWILC3000 Programming Guide.

This architecture is shown in Figure 10-1. The Power Management Unit (PMU) has a DC/DC Converter that converts VBAT to the core supply used by the digital and RF/AMS blocks. In Table 10-1 the typical values for the digital and RF/AMS core voltages are shown. The PA and eFuse are supplied by dedicated LDOs, and the VCO is supplied by a separate LDO structure. Figure 10-1.

Refer to the reference design for an example of power supply connections, including proper isolation of the supplies used by the digital and RF/AMS blocks. 10.2 Power Consumption 10.2.1 Description of Device States ATWILC3000 has several devices states: ON_WiFi_Transmit – Device is actively transmitting an 802.11 signal ON_WiFi_Receive – Device is actively receiving an 802.11 signal ON_BT_Transmit – Device is actively transmitting a Bluetooth signal ON_BT_Receive – Device is actively receiving a Bluetooth signal ON_Doze – Device is on but is neither transmitting nor receiving Power_Down – Device core supply off (Leakage) The following pins are used to switch between the ON and Power_Down states: CHIP_EN – Device pin (pin #27) used to enable DC/DC Converter VDDIO – I/O supply voltage from external supply In the ON states, VDDIO is on and CHIP_EN is high (at VDDIO voltage level). To switch between the ON states and Power_Down state CHIP_EN has to change between high and low (GND) voltage. When VDDIO is off and CHIP_EN is low, the chip is powered off with minimal leakage (also see Section 10.2.3). 10.2.2 Current Consumption in Various Device States Table 10-2.

In this case, a voltage cannot be applied to the device pins because each pin contains an ESD diode from the pin to supply. This diode will turn on when voltage higher than one diode-drop is supplied to the pin. If a voltage must be applied to the signal pads while the chip is in a low power state, the VDDIO supply must be on, so the SLEEP or Power_Down state must be used. Similarly, to prevent the pin-to-ground diode from turning on, do not apply a voltage that is more than one diode-drop below ground to any pin. 10.3 Power-Up/Down Sequence The power-up/down sequence for ATWILC3000 is shown in Figure 10-2.

Figure 11-1. 34 ATWILC3000 Reference Schematic ATWILC3000 Single Chip IEEE 802.11 b/g/n Link Controller with Integrated Bluetooth 4.0 [DATASHEET] 3 Atmel-42390D-ATWILC3000-MUT-SmartConnect-Datasheet_05/2016 4 12 Reference Design Guidelines RFIOP and RFION pins must be AC coupled It is recommended that the balun is located right next to the pins – if this is not possible, RFIOP and RFION should be routed as 50Ω differential pair to the balun ATWILC3000 provides programmable pull-up resistors on various pins (see Table 3-1). The purpose of these resistors is to keep any unused input pins from floating which can cause excess current to flow through the input buffer from the VDDIO supply. Any unused pin on the device should leave these pullup resistors enabled so the pin will not float. The default state at power up is for the pull-up resistor to be enabled. However, any pin, which is used, should have the pull-up resistor disabled. The reason for this is that if any pins are driven to a low level while the device is in the low power sleep state, current will flow from the VDDIO supply through the pullup resistors, increasing the current consumption of the module. Since the value of the pull-up resistor is approximately 100kΩ, the current through any pull-up resistor that is being driven low will be VDDIO/100K. For VDDIO = 3.3V, the current would be approximately 33µA. Pins which are used and have had the programmable pull-up resistor disabled should always be actively driven to either a high or low level and not be allowed to float If SDIO interface is used, each SDIO pin should use a 70Ω resistor in series for RF noise filtering Refer to ATWILC3000 Programming Guide for information on enabling/disabling the programmable pullup resistors ATWILC3000 Single Chip IEEE 802.11 b/g/n Link Controller with Integrated Bluetooth 4.0 [DATASHEET] Atmel-42390D-ATWILC3000-MUT-SmartConnect-Datasheet_05/2016 35 3 5 13 Reflow Profile Information This chapter provides guidelines for reflow processes in getting the Atmel module soldered to the customer’s design. 13.1 Storage Condition 13.1.1 Moisture Barrier Bag Before Opened A moisture barrier bag must be stored in a temperature of less than 30°C with humidity under 85% RH. The calculated shelf life for the dry-packed product shall be 12 months from the date the bag is sealed. 13.1.2 Moisture Barrier Bag Open Humidity indicator cards must be blue, < 30%. 13.2 Stencil Design The recommended stencil is laser-cut, stainless-steel type with thickness of 100µm to 130µm and approximately a 1:1 ratio of stencil opening to pad dimension. To improve paste release, a positive taper with bottom opening 25µm larger than the top can be utilized. Local manufacturing experience may find other combinations of stencil thickness and aperture size to get good results. 13.3 Baking Conditions This module is rated at MSL level 3. After sealed bag is opened, no baking is required within 168 hours so long as the devices are held at ≤30°C/60% RH or stored at <10% RH. The module will require baking before mounting if: 13.4 The sealed bag has been open for >168 hours Humidity Indicator Card reads >10% SIPs need to be baked for 8 hours at 125°C Soldering and Reflow Condition 13.4.1 Reflow Oven It is strongly recommended that a reflow oven equipped with more heating zones and Nitrogen atmosphere be used for lead-free assembly. Nitrogen atmosphere has shown to improve the wet-ability and reduce temperature gradient across the board. It can also enhance the appearance of the solder joints by reducing the effects of oxidation. The following bullet items should also be observed in the reflow process: 36 Some recommended pastes include NC-SMQ® 230 flux and Indalloy® 241 solder paste made up of 95.5 Sn/3.8 Ag/0.7 Cu or SENJU N705-GRN3360-K2-V Type 3, no clean paste Allowable reflow soldering times: 3 times based on the following reflow soldering profile (see Figure 131) Temperature profile: Reflow soldering shall be done according to the following temperature profile (see Figure 13-1) Peak temp.: 250°C ATWILC3000 Single Chip IEEE 802.11 b/g/n Link Controller with Integrated Bluetooth 4.0 [DATASHEET] 3 Atmel-42390D-ATWILC3000-MUT-SmartConnect-Datasheet_05/2016 6 Figure 13-1.
