Low-Power Oscillator
ATWILC1000B has an internally-generated 32kHz clock to provide timing information for various sleep
functions. Alternatively, ATWILC1000B allows for an external 32kHz clock to be used for this purpose, which is
provided through Pin 24 (RTC_CLK). Software selects whether the internal clock or external clock is used.
The internal low-power clock is ring-oscillator based and has accuracy within 10,000ppm. When using the
internal low-power clock, the advance wakeup time in beacon monitoring mode has to be increased by about
1% of the sleep time to compensate for the oscillator inaccuracy. For example, for the DTIM interval value of 1,
wakeup time has to be increased by 1ms.
For any application targeting very low power consumption, an external 32kHz RTC clock should be used.

CPU and Memory Subsystems
6.1
Processor
ATWILC1000B 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 128KB instruction/boot ROM along with a 160KB instruction RAM and a 64KB data
RAM. 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.
6.3
Non-Volatile Memory (eFuse)
ATWILC1000B 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
software-specific configuration parameters. The eFuse is partitioned into six 128-bit banks. Each bank has the
same bit map, which is shown in Figure 6-1. 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 ATWILC1000B Programming Guide for the eFuse
programming instructions.

Description
The ATWILC1000B 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 data path functions with heavy computational. E.g., 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).
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

I2C Slave Interface
The I2C Slave interface, used primarily for control by the host processor, is a two-wire serial interface
consisting of a serial data line (SDA, Pin 33) and a serial clock (SCL, Pin 32). It responds to the seven bit
address value 0x60. The ATWILC1000B I2C 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”.
The I2C Slave timing is provided in Figure 8-1 and Table 8-2.

ATWILC1000B provides an I2C bus master, which is intended primarily for accessing an external EEPROM
memory through a software-defined protocol. The I2C Master is a two-wire serial interface consisting of a serial
data line (SDA) and a serial clock line (SCL). SDA can be configured on one of the following pins: SD_CLK (pin
19), GPIO1 (pin 24), GPIO6 (pin 31), or I2C_SDA (pin 33). SCL can be configured on one of the following pins:
GPIO0 (pin 10), SD_DAT3 (pin 12), GPIO4 (pin 29), or I2C_SCL (pin 32). For more specific instructions refer
to ATWILC1000B Programming Guide.
The I2C Master interface supports three speeds:

SPI Slave Interface
ATWILC1000B provides a Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) that operates as a SPI slave. 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 8-4. 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 9 (SDIO_SPI_CFG) is tied to VDDIO.
Table 8-4.

SCK: Serial Clock
13
RXD: Serial Data Receive (MOSI)
17
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
ATWILC1000B Programming Guide.
The SPI Slave interface supports four standard modes as determined by the Clock Polarity (CPOL) and Clock
Phase (CPHA) settings. These modes are illustrated in Table 8-5 and Figure 8-2. The red lines in Figure 8-2
correspond to Clock Phase = 0 and the blue lines correspond to Clock Phase = 1.

SPI Master Interface
ATWILC1000B provides a SPI Master interface for accessing external Flash memory. The SPI Master pins are
mapped as shown in Table 8-7. 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 in Table 8-5. External SPI Flash memory is accessed by a processor
programming commands to the SPI Master interface, which in turn initiates a SPI master access to the Flash.

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, four Data,
and three Power lines) designed to operate at maximum operating frequency of 50MHz.
The SDIO Slave interface has the following features:


8.6
UART
ATWILC1000B has two Universal Asynchronous Receiver/Transmitter (UART) interfaces for serial
communication: UART1 and UART2. The UARTs are compatible with the RS-232 standard, where
ATWILC1000B operates as Data Terminal Equipment (DTE).
UART1 has a 2-pin interface without flow control (RXD/TXD), where RXD (received data) can be enabled on
one of five alternative pins and TXD (transmitted data) can be enabled on one of seven alternative pins by
programming their corresponding pin MUX control registers (see Table 8-1). UART2 has a 4-pin interface with
flow control (RXD/TXD/CTS/RTS), where RXD (received data) can be enabled on one of two alternative pins,
TXD (transmitted data) can be enabled on one of two alternative pins, CTS (clear to send) can be enabled on
one of two alternative pins, and RTS (request to send) can be enabled on one of two alternative pins by
programming their corresponding pin MUX control registers (see Table 8-1).
Both UARTs feature 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 XO×2, XO, XO÷2, and XO÷4, which corresponds to 52MHz, 26MHz, 13MHz, and 6.5MHz
for the typical XO frequency (26MHz). 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 baud rate of 52MHz/8.0 = 6.5MBd for typical XO frequency.
Both UARTs 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. They also have 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 UARTs also have 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.
UART2 supports standard flow control using CTS and RTS signals – UART2 can be programmed to enable or
disable flow control. CTS is an active low input. When it is asserted (low) UART2 will transmit data; when it
becomes de-asserted (high) UART2 will finish transmitting the current byte (if it is in progress) and will not
resume transmitting until CTS becomes asserted again. RTS is an active low output. It becomes asserted (low)
when the RX FIFO in UART2 has space; it becomes de-asserted (high) when there is not enough space in the
RX FIFO.
An example of UART receiving or transmitting a single packet is shown in Figure 8-6. This example shows 7-bit
data (0x45), odd parity, and two stop bits.
For more specific instructions refer to ATWILC1000B Programming Guide.

Wi-Fi/Bluetooth Coexistence
ATWILC1000B supports 2-wire 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 several alternative pins by programming their corresponding pin MUX control register to 6 (see
Table 8-1, where any pin marked “IO_COE” in the “Mux6” column can be configured for any function of the

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,
seven GPIOs (0-6) are available. For more specific usage instructions refer to ATWILC1000B Programming
Guide.

Power Management
9.1
Power Architecture
ATWILC1000B uses an innovative power architecture to eliminate the need for external regulators and reduce
the number of off-chip components. This architecture is shown in Figure 9-1. The Power Management Unit
(PMU) has a DC/DC Converter that converts VBATT to the core supply used by the digital and RF/AMS blocks.
Table 9-1 shows the typical values for the digital and RF/AMS core voltages. The PA and eFuse are supplied
by dedicated LDOs, and the VCO is supplied by a separate LDO structure.

Description of Device States
ATWILC1000B has several Devices States:






ON_Transmit_High_Power – Device is actively transmitting an 802.11 signal. Highest output power and
nominal current consumption
ON_Transmit_Low_Power – Device is actively transmitting an 802.11 signal. Reduced output power and
reduced current consumption
ON_Receive_High_Power – Device is actively receiving an 802.11 signal. Lowest sensitivity and nominal
current consumption
ON_Receive_Low_Power – Device is actively receiving an 802.11 signal. Degraded sensitivity and
reduced current consumption
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 #23) 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 9.2.3).

Restrictions for Power States
When no power supplied to the device, i.e., the DC/DC Converter output and VDDIO are both off (at ground
potential). 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.
