Pin Attributes
Table 3-1 lists the pin descriptions of the CC3100MOD module.
NOTE
If an external device drives a positive voltage to signal pads when the CC3100MOD is not
powered, DC current is drawn from the other device. If the drive strength of the external
device is adequate, an unintentional wakeup and boot of the CC3100MOD can occur. To
prevent current draw, TI recommends one of the following:
• All devices interfaced to the CC3100MOD must be powered from the same power rail as
the CC3100MOD.
• Use level-shifters between the CC3100MOD and any external devices fed from other
independent rails.
• The nRESET pin of the CC3100MOD must be held low until the VBAT supply to the
device is driven and stable.

SWRS161 – DECEMBER 2014
Brown-Out and Black-Out
The module enters a brown-out condition whenever the input voltage dips below VBROWN (see Figure 4-1 and
Figure 4-2). This condition must be considered during design of the power supply routing, especially if operating
from a battery. High-current operations (such as a TX packet) cause a dip in the supply voltage, potentially
triggering a brown-out. The resistance includes the internal resistance of the battery, contact resistance of the
battery holder (4 contacts for a 2 x AA battery) and the wiring and PCB routing resistance.
Figure 4-1. Brown-Out and Black-Out Levels (1 of 2)
Figure 4-2. Brown-Out and Black-Out Levels (2 of 2)
In the brown-out condition, all sections of the CC3100MOD shut down within the module except for the Hibernate
block (including the 32-kHz RTC clock), which remains on. The current in this state can reach approximately 400
µA.
The black-out condition is equivalent to a hardware reset event in which all states within the module are lost.

TX power level = 0 implies maximum power. TX power level = 4 implies output power backed off approximately 4 dB.
The CC3100 system is a constant power-source system. The active current numbers scale inversely on the VBAT voltage supplied.
The RX current is measured with a 1-Mbps throughput rate.
DTIM = 1
The complete calibration can take up to 17 mJ of energy from the battery over a time of 24 ms. Calibration is performed sparingly,
typically when coming out of Hibernate and only if temperature has changed by more than 20°C or the time elapsed from prior
calibration is greater than 24 hours.
Note: The area enclosed in the circle represents a significant reduction in current when transitioning from TX power
level 3 to 4. In the case of lower range requirements (13-dbm output power), TI recommends using TX power level 4
to reduce the current.

• Host can always receive any amount of data transmitted by the SimpleLink device because there is no
flow control in this direction.
Because there is no full flow control, the host cannot stop the SimpleLink device to send its data; thus, the
following parameters must be carefully considered:
• Max baud rate
• RX character interrupt latency and low-level driver jitter buffer
• Time consumed by the user's application

Power-Management Subsystem
The CC3100 power-management subsystem contains DC-DC converters to accommodate the differing
voltage or current requirements of the system. The module can operate from an input voltage ranging from
2.3 V to 3.6 V and can be directly connected to 2xAA Alkaline batteries.
The CC3100MOD is a fully integrated module based WLAN radio solution used on an embedded system
with a wide-voltage supply range. The internal power management, including DC-DC converters and
LDOs, generates all of the voltages required for the module to operate from a wide variety of input
sources. For maximum flexibility, the module can operate in the modes described in the following sections.
5.4.1
VBAT Wide-Voltage Connection
In the wide-voltage battery connection, the module is powered directly by the battery. All other voltages
required to operate the device are generated internally by the DC-DC converters. This scheme is the most
common mode for the device as it supports wide-voltage operation from 2.3 to 3.6 V.
5.5
Low-Power Operating Modes
This section describes the low-power modes supported by the module to optimize battery life.
5.5.1
Low-Power Deep Sleep
The low-power deep-sleep (LPDS) mode is an energy-efficient and transparent sleep mode that is entered
automatically during periods of inactivity based on internal power optimization algorithms. The module
draws about 7 µA from the supply in this low-power mode. The module can wake up in less than 3 ms
from the internal timer or from any incoming host command. Typical battery drain in this mode is 140 µA.
During LPDS mode, the module retains the software state and certain configuration information. The
operation is transparent to the external host; thus, no additional handshake is required to enter or exit this
sleep mode.

5.5.2
SWRS161 – DECEMBER 2014
Hibernate
The hibernate mode is the lowest power mode in which all of the digital logic is power-gated. Only a small
section of the logic powered directly by the main input supply is retained. The real-time clock (RTC) is kept
running and the module wakes up once the n_HIB line is asserted by the host driver. The wake-up time is
longer than LPDS mode at about 50 ms.
NOTE
Wake-up time can be extended to 75 ms if a patch is loaded from the serial flash.

Antenna Placement and Routing
The antenna is the element used to convert the guided waves on the PCB traces to the free space
electromagnetic radiation. The placement and layout of the antenna is the key to increased range and
data rates.
The following points need to be observed for the antenna.
SR NO.
GUIDELINES
1
Place the antenna on an edge or corner of the PCB
2
Make sure that no signals are routed across the antenna elements on all the layers of the
PCB
3
Most antennas, including the chip antenna used on the booster pack require ground
clearance on all the layers of the PCB. Ensure that the ground is cleared on inner layers
as well.

Ensure that there is provision to place matching components for the antenna. These need
to be tuned for best return loss once the complete board is assembled. Any plastics or
casing should also be mounted while tuning the antenna as this can impact the
impedance.
5
Ensure that the antenna impedance is 50 Ω as the device is rated to work only with a
50-Ω system.
6
In case of printed antenna, ensure that the simulation is performed with the solder mask
in consideration.
7
Ensure that the antenna has a near omni-directional pattern.
8
The feed point of the antenna is required to be grounded
9
To use the FCC certification of the Booster pack board, the antenna used should be of
the same gain or lesser. In addition, the Antenna design should be exactly copied
including the Antenna traces.

Transmission Line
The RF signal from the device is routed to the antenna using a CPW-G (Coplanar Waveguide with
ground) structure. This structure offers the maximum isolation across filter gap and the best possible
shielding to the RF lines. In addition to the ground on the L1 layer, placing GND vias along the line also
provides additional shielding

General Layout Recommendation
1. Have a solid ground plane and ground vias under the module for stable system and thermal
dissipation.
2. Do not run signal traces underneath the module on a layer where the module is mounted.
3. RF traces must have 50-Ω impedance
4. RF trace bends must be gradual with a maximum bend of approximately 45 degrees and with trace
mitered.
5. RF traces must not have sharp corners.
6. There must be no traces or ground under the antenna section.
7. RF traces must have via stitching on the ground plane beside the RF trace on both sides.
8. RF traces must be as short as possible. The antenna, RF traces, and the module must be on the edge
of the PCB product in consideration of the product enclosure material and proximity.
