Physical Interfaces 4.1 Power Supply 4.1.1 Linear Regulators FLC-WFM301 contains four linear regulators:  A low-voltage regulator to supply the 1.2V core digital supply  Three low-voltage regulators for the 1.2V core auxiliary, radio and RF synthesizer analogue supplies 4.1.2 LDO for Digital Supply VREG_IN_DIG is the input voltage to the internal LDO for digital supply and VDD_DIG is the output of the LDO.  A low ESR 2.2uF capacitor to ground should be connected to this pin.   4.1.3 RF Front End Power Supply VDD_RF1 and VDD_RF2 are the external 3.3V input to power RF front end.  Clean voltage should be used for these two pins. 4.1.4 I/O Power Supply  VDD_PADS is used to power PIO[0] to PIO[7].  The typical voltage is 1.8V for this rail.  VDD_AIO_PIO is used to power PIO[8] to PIO[15],  AIO[0] to AIO[3] 4.2 Reset WFM301CL can be reset from several sources,  Via the external RST# pin (pin 5)  Via an internal core power supply supervisor  Using software watchdog timers  Via SDIO/CSPI host interface RST# is an active-low reset input that is internally filtered using the internal low frequency clock oscillator to avoid spurious resets.  A reset occurs after the signal has been asserted for between 250 and 375 s.  This pin may be tied to VDD_PADS is unused; otherwise it should be asserted for at least 1 ms to force a reset. The power supply monitors VDD_DIG to trigger a power-on-reset.  This occurs when the supply falls below 1.05V (typical) in normal operation or 0.785C (typical) in deep sleep, and ends when the supply exceeds 1.10V (typical).  Glitches of up to 30mV and 2.5s duration, which could be caused by large load steps, will not trigger a reset. Each of the internal processors has its own independent watchdog timer to detect and recover from erroneous software operation.  These are typically configured with a timeout of 1.5s, but this may be increased up to maximum of 64s for reduced power consumption.  The watchdogs are enabled at power-on and continue operating while WFM301CL is in deep sleep.
                                                                                                          FLC-WFM301 Datasheet  Flaircomm Microelectronics Confidential        -14-  4.3 RF Interface The module integrates a  band-pass  filter to the antenna port which  is  a  50  port. The  user can connect a 50  antenna directly to the antenna port (pin 48). 4.4 General Purpose Digital IO There are nine general purpose digital IOs defined in the module. All these GPIOs can be configured by software to realize various functions, such as button controls, LED displays or interrupt signals to host controller, etc. Do not connect them if not use.

The fourth mode is a CSR proprietary variant designed to allow more efficient implementation on hosts without dedicated SDIO host controller.  Table 5 shows the usage of the host interfaces pins in each mode.

At power-on the host interface starts in SD 1-bit mode and may be switched into any of the alternative modes via SDIO commands. 4.6.1 SDIO SDIO mode fully support SDIO specification version 2.00. It supports all defined slave modes (SD 1 bit, SD 4-bit and SDIO SPI), but not SD host functionality.   Two functions are supported:  Function 0 is the mandatory function used for card configuration.  This includes the CCCR, FBR and CIS.  Vender-defined registers within the CCCR support sleep and wake-up signaling.  Function 1 provides access to the IEEE 802.11 functionality.  IO_RW_DIRECT (CMD52) reads and writes on-chip registers and memory locations directly.  IO_RW_EXTENDED (CMD53) transfers blocks of data to or from the on-chip MMU buffers. The SDIO interface implements a subset of optional features.  Specifically it supports:  Continuous SPI interrupt (SCSI)  Direct Commands during data transfer (SDC)  Multi-block (SMB)  Read wait (SRW)  4.6.1.1 SDIO Sleep Signaling WFM301CL supports a variety of mechanisms to enable both itself and the host to efficiently enter and leave low-power modes. 4.6.1.1.1  Card Sleep and Wake-up WFM301CL automatically uses its sleep modes to minimize power consumption.  Registers in function 0 are always directly accessible by the host, irrespective of the device’s sleep modes.  Attempts to access function 1 while the device is in deep sleep are likely to results in SDIO timeouts. To avoid the need for the host to implement complicated retry mechanisms, a simple deep sleep control scheme is supported via a Vender Unique Register within the CCCR in function 0.  The host uses this register to tell WFM301CL when it is allowed to use deep sleep.  When the host subsequently needs to access function 1 it uses the same register to initiated a wake-up and them waits for an SDIO interrupt to indicate that the wake-up is compete.
                                                                                                          FLC-WFM301 Datasheet  Flaircomm Microelectronics Confidential        -16- 4.6.1.2 Host Sleep and Wake-up The normal method for WFM301CL to wake the host up is via the in-band interrupt on SDIO_DATA[1].  This is the dame mechanism that is used to notify the host of received data or interesting events; no explicit sleep signaling is required. An alternative out-of-band mechanism is provided for hosts that cannot utilize the SDIO interrupt as a wake-up signal, e.g. where a separate power-management IC needs to restore power to the host processor.  This feature is enabled by masking out SDIO interrupts via the Int Enable register within the CCCR in function 0.  When an SDIO interrupt would have been signaled otherwise, a pulse is instead generated on a configured PIO line. Note:  The out-of-band wake-up signal is not a replacement for the in-band SDIO interrupt.  The standard interrupt signal should be used for data transfer during normal operation.

Recommended PCB Layout and Mounting Pattern  Placement and PCB layout are critical to optimize the performances of a module without on-board antenna designs. The trace from the antenna port of the module to an external antenna should be 50 and must be as short as possible to avoid any interference into the transceiver of the module.  The location of the external antenna and RF-IN port of the module should be kept away from any noise sources and digital traces. A matching network might be needed in between the external antenna and Antenna port to better match the impedance to minimize the return loss. As indicated in Figure 6 below, RF critical circuits of the module should be clearly separated from any digital circuits on the system board.  All RF circuits in the module are close to the antenna port.  The module, then, should be placed in this way that module digital part towards your digital section of the system PCB.   Figure 6: Placement the Module on a System Board 8.1 Antenna Connection and Grounding Plane Design   Figure 7: Leave 5mm Clearance Space from the Antenna General design recommendations are:  The length of the trace or connection line should be kept as short as possible.
                                                                                                          FLC-WFM301 Datasheet  Flaircomm Microelectronics Confidential        -24-  Distance between connection and ground area on the top layer should at least be as large as the dielectric thickness.  Routing the RF close to digital sections of the system board should be avoided.  To reduce signal reflections, sharp angles in the routing of the micro strip line should be avoided. Chamfers or fillets are preferred for rectangular routing; 45-degree routing is preferred over Manhattan style 90-degree routing.  Figure 8: Recommended Trace Connects Antenna and the Module   Routing of the RF-connection underneath the module should be avoided.   Use as many vias as possible to connect the ground planes.

Recommended Reflow Profile  The soldering profile depends on various parameters necessitating a set up for each application.  The data here is given only for guidance on solder reflow.  210 217 ℃ 250 A B C D 1 2 0 25 3 4 5 6 min E  Figure 9: Recommended Reflow Profile Pre-heat zone (A) — This zone raises the temperature at a controlled rate, typically 0.5 – 2 C/s.  The purpose of this zone is to preheat the PCB board and components to 120 ~ 150 C.  This stage is required to distribute the heat uniformly to the PCB board and completely remove solvent to reduce the heat shock to components.  Equilibrium Zone 1 (B) — In this stage the flux becomes soft and uniformly encapsulates solder particles and spread over PCB board, preventing them from being re-oxidized.  Also with elevation of temperature and liquefaction of flux, each activator and rosin get activated and start eliminating oxide  film  formed  on  the  surface  of  each  solder  particle  and  PCB  board.  The  temperature  is recommended to be 150 to 210 for 60 to 120 second for this zone. Equilibrium  Zone  2  (c)  (optional) —  In  order  to  resolve  the  upright  component  issue,  it  is recommended to keep the temperature in 210 – 217  for about 20 to 30 second.  Reflow Zone (D) — The profile in the figure is designed for Sn/Ag3.0/Cu0.5.  It can be a reference for other lead-free solder. The peak temperature should be high enough to achieve good wetting but not so high as to cause component discoloration or damage. Excessive soldering time can lead to intermetallic growth which can result in a brittle joint. The recommended peak temperature (Tp) is 230 ~ 250 C.  The soldering time should be 30 to 90 second when the temperature is above 217 C. Cooling Zone (E) — The cooling ate should be fast, to keep the solder grains small which will give a longer-lasting joint. Typical cooling rate should be 4 C.
