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. 5.2 Memory Subsystem The APS3 core uses a 128KB instruction/boot ROM along with a 160KB instruction RAM and a 64KB data RAM. ATWINC1500B also has 4Mb of flash memory, which can be used for system software. In addition, the device uses a 128KB shared RAM, accessible by the processor and MAC, which allows the APS3 core to perform various data management tasks on the TX and RX data packets. Non-volatile Memory (eFuse) ATWINC1500B has 768 bits of non-volatile eFuse memory that can be read by the CPU after device reset. This non-volatile one-time-programmable (OTP) memory can be used to store customer-specific parameters, such as MAC address; various calibration information, such as TX power, crystal frequency offset, etc.; and other softwarespecific configuration parameters. The eFuse is partitioned into six 128-bit banks. Each bank has the same bit map, which is shown in Figure 5-1. The purpose of the first 80 bits in each bank is fixed, and the remaining 48 bits are general-purpose software dependent bits, or reserved for future use. Since each bank can be programmed independently, this allows for several updates of the device parameters following the initial programming, e.g. updating MAC address. Refer to ATWINC1500-MR210PB Programming Guide for the eFuse programming instructions. Flags 8 Bank 0 F 48 MAC ADDR 7 8 G Used 1 15 Freq.

The following two subsections describe the MAC and PHY in detail. 6.1 MAC 6.1.1 Features The ATWINC1500-MR210PB 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: 6.1.2 – 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 ATWINC1500B 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 datapath 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 datapath engines are used to implement datapath 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). 12 ATWINC1500-MR210P [DATASHEET] 1 Atmel-42502B-ATWINC1500-MR210PB-SmartConnect-Datasheet_02/2016 2 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. 6.2 PHY 6.2.1 Features The ATWINC1500B IEEE802.11 PHY supports the following functions: 6.2.2 Single antenna 1x1 stream in 20MHz channels Supports IEEE 802.11b DSSS-CCK modulation: 1, 2, 5.5, 11Mbps Supports IEEE 802.11g OFDM modulation: 6, 9, 12,18, 24, 36, 48, 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, 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 ATWINC1500BWLAN PHY is designed to achieve reliable and power-efficient physical layer communication specified by IEEE 802.11 b/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. 6.3 Radio Table 6-1.

ATWINC1500-MR210PB [DATASHEET Atmel-42502B-ATWINC1500-MR210PB-SmartConnect-Datasheet_02/2016 15 7 External Interfaces 7.1 SPI Interface 7.1.1 Overview ATWINC1500-MR210PB has a Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) that operates as a SPI slave. The SPI interface can be used for control and for serial I/O of 802.11 data. The SPI pins are mapped as shown in Table 7-1. The SPI is a full-duplex slave-synchronous serial interface that is available immediately following reset when pin 10 (SPI_CFG) is tied to VDDIO. Table 7-1. SPI Interface Pin Mapping Pin # SPI function 10 CFG: Must be tied to VDDIO 16 SSN: Active Low Slave Select 15 MOSI(RXD): Serial Data Receive 18 SCK: Serial Clock 17 MISO(TXD): Serial Data Transmit 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 MISO line. The SPI 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. The SPI SSN, MOSI, MISO, and SCK pins of the ATWINC1500-MR210PB have internal programmable pull-up resistors (See Section 9.1). These resistors should be programmed to be disabled. Otherwise, if any of the SPI pins are driven to a low level while the ATWINC1500-MR210PB is in the low-power sleep state, the current will flow from the VDDIO supply through the pull-up resistors, increasing the current consumption of the module. 7.1.2 SPI Timing The SPI timing is provided in Figure 7-1 and Table 7-2. 16 ATWINC1500-MR210P [DATASHEET] 1 Atmel-42502B-ATWINC1500-MR210PB-SmartConnect-Datasheet_02/2016 6 Figure 7-1.

It can be used for control or data transfer if the baud rate is sufficient for a given application. The UART is compatible with the RS-232 standard, where ATWINC1500-MR210PB operates as Data Terminal Equipment (DTE). It has a two-pin RXD/TXD interface. 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 UART input clock is selectable between 10MHz, 5MHz, 2.5MHz, and 1.25MHz. The clock divider value is programmable as 13 integer bits and 3 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 4 x 8 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 7-2. This example shows 7-bit data (0x45), odd parity, and two stop bits. See the ATWINC1500-MR210PB Programming Guide for information on configuring the UART. Figure 7-2. 7.3 Example of UART RX of TX Packet Wi-Fi/Bluetooth Coexistence ATWINC1500-MR210PB supports 2- and 3-wire Wi-Fi/Bluetooth Coexistence signaling conforming to the IEEE 802.15.2-2003 standard, Part 15.2. The type of coexistence interface used (2- or 3-wire) is chosen to be compatible with the specific Bluetooth device used in a given application. Coexistence interface can be enabled on the following pins: GPIO_1, GPIO_3, GPIO_4, GPIO_5, GPIO_6, I2C_SCL, I2C_SDA – each of these pins can be configured for any function of the coexistence interface. Table 7-3 shows a usage example of the 2-wire interface using the GPIO_3 and GPIO_4 pins; 3-wire interface using the GPIO_3, GPIO_4, and GPIO_5 pins; for more specific instructions on configuring Coexistence refer to ATWINC1500-MR210PB Programming Guide.

Highest output power and nominal current consumption. ON_Receive – Device is actively receiving an 802.11 signal. Lowest sensitivity and nominal current consumption. ON_Doze – Device is on but is neither transmitting nor receiving Power_Down – Device core supply off (Leakage) IDLE connect – Device is connected with 1 DTIM beacon interval The following pins are used to switch between the ON and Power_Down states: CHIP_EN – Device pin (pin #22) 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 no leakage (also see Section 8.3). 8.2 Current Consumption in Various Device States Table 8-1.

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 diodedrop below ground to any pin. 8.4 Power-up/down Sequence The power-up/down sequence for ATWINC1500-MR210PB is shown in Figure 8-1.

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 module pin on the ATWINC1500-MR210PB should leave these pull-up 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 ATWINC1500-MR210PB is in the low power sleep state, current will flow from the VDDIO supply through the pull-up 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 through each pull-up resistor that is driven low would be approximately 3.3V/100K = 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. See the ATWINC1500-MR210PB Programming Guide for information on enabling/disabling the programmable pull up resistors. 10 RF Performance Placement Guidelines It is critical to follow the recommendations listed below to achieve the best RF performance: 22 The module must be placed on the main board – the printed antenna area must overlap with the carrier board. The portion of the module containing the antenna should not go outside the edge of the main board. The antenna is designed to work properly when it is sitting directly on top of a 1.5mm thick printed circuit board. If the module is placed at the edge of the main board, a minimum 22mm by 5mm area directly under the antenna must be clear of all metal on all layers of the board. “In-land” placement is acceptable; however deepness of keep-out area must grove to: module edge to main board edge plus 5mm. DO NOT PLACE THE MODULE IN THE MIDDLE OF THE MAIN BOARD OR FAR AWAY FROM THE MAIN BOARD EDGE. Keep away from the antenna, as far as possible, large metal objects to avoid electromagnetic field blocking Do not enclose the antenna within a metal shield Keep any components which may radiate noise or signals within the 2.4GHz – 2.5GHz frequency band as far away from the antenna as possible, or better yet, shield those components. Any noise radiated from the main board in this frequency band will degrade the sensitivity of the module. Contact Atmel for assistance if any other placement is required ATWINC1500-MR210P [DATASHEET] 2 Atmel-42502B-ATWINC1500-MR210PB-SmartConnect-Datasheet_02/2016 2 11 Schematic Design Information This chapter deals with schematic information.

The calculated shelf life for the dry-packed product shall be 12 months from the date the bag is sealed. 12.1.2 Moisture Barrier Bag Open Humidity indicator cards must be blue, <30%. 12.2 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. 12.3 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: 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 12.4 Soldering and Reflow Condition 12.4.1 Reflow Oven It is strongly recommended that a reflow oven equipped with more heating zones and Nitrogen atmosphere should 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: 24 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: Two times based on the following reflow soldering profile (see Figure 12-1) Temperature profile: Reflow soldering shall be done according to the following temperature profile (see Figure 12-1) Peak temp.: 250°C ATWINC1500-MR210P [DATASHEET] 2 Atmel-42502B-ATWINC1500-MR210PB-SmartConnect-Datasheet_02/2016 4 Figure 12-1.
