ELECTRICAL SPECIFICATIONS The majority of these characteristics are based on controlling and conditioning the tests using the TiWi-BLE control software application. Other control conditions may require these values to be re-characterized by the customer.

Stresses beyond those listed under “absolute maximum ratings” may cause permanent damage to the device and are not covered by the warranty. These are stress ratings only and functional operation of the device at these or any other conditions beyond those indicated under “recommended operating conditions” is not implied. Exposure to absolute-maximum-rated conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability. 2. All parameters are measured as follows unless stated otherwise: VDD_IN=1.8V, VDDIO_1.8V=1.8V, VDD_LDO_CLASS1P5=3.6V 3. Analog pins: XTALP, XTALM, RFIOBT, DRPWRXBM, DRPWRXBP, DRPWTXB, and also FMRFINP, FMRFINM, FMRFINM, FMAUDLIN, FMAUDRIN, FMAUDLOUT, FMAUDROUT 4. The following signals are from the VBAT group, PMS_VBAT and VDD_LDO_CLASS1P5 (if BT class 1.5 direct VBAT is used). 5. Maximum allowed depends on accumulated time at that voltage; 4.8V for 7 years lifetime, 5.5V for 6 hours cumulative. 6. The device can be reliably operated for 5,000 active-WLAN cumulative hours at TA of 85oC.

WLAN POWER-UP SEQUENCE The following sequence describes device power-up from shutdown. Only the WLAN Core is enabled; the Bluetooth and FM cores are disabled. Figure 1 TiWi-BLE Power-up Sequence Requirements 1. No signals are allowed on the IO pins if no IO power is supplied, because the IOs are not 'failsafe’. Exceptions are CLK_REQ_OUT, SLOWCLK, XTALP, and AUD_xxx, which are failsafe and can tolerate external voltages with no VDDS and DC2DC". 2. VBAT, VIO, and SLOWCLK must be available before WL_EN. 3. Twakeup = T1 + T2 The duration of T1 is defined as the time from WL_EN=high until Fref is valid for the SoC. T1=~55ms The duration of T2 depends on: Operating system – Host enumeration for the SDIO/WSPI – PLL configuration – Firmware download – Releasing the core from reset – Firmware initialization
WLAN POWER-DOWN SEQUENCE Notes: 1. The DC2DC(1.8V) signal can be monitored on BT_FUNC2 Module Pin (#41) 2. DC_REQ and CLK_REQ are internal signals shown for reference only Figure 2 TiWi-BLE Module Power-down Sequence Requirements 1. DC_REQ will go low only if WLAN is the only core working. Otherwise if another core is working (e.g BT) it will stay high. 2. CLK_REQ will go low only if WLAN is the only core working. Otherwise if another core is working and using the FREF (e.g BT) it will stay high. 3. If WLAN is the only core that is operating, WL_EN must remain de-asserted for at least 64sec before it is re-asserted.
IRQ OPERATION 1. The default state of the WLAN_IRQ prior to firmware initialization is 0. 2. During firmware initialization, the WLAN_IRQ is configured by the SDIO module; a WLAN_IRQ changes its state to 1. 3. A WLAN firmware interrupt is handled as follows: a. The WLAN firmware creates an Interrupt-to-Host, indicated by a 1-to-0 transition on the WLAN_IRQ line (host must be configured as active-low or falling-edge detect). b. After the host is available, depending on the interrupt priority and other host tasks, it masks the firmware interrupt. The WLAN_IRQ line returns to 1 (0-to-1 transition on the WLAN_IRQ line). c. The host reads the internal register status to determine the interrupt sources - the register is cleared after the read. d. The host processes in sequence all the interrupts read from this register e. The host unmasks the firmware interrupts. 4. The host is ready to receive another interrupt from the WLAN device.
SLOW (32 KHZ) CLOCK SOURCE REQUIREMENTS The slow clock is always supplied from an external source. It is input on the SLOW_CLK pin, and can be a digital signal in the range of VIO only. For slow clock frequency and accuracy refer to Table 8. The external slow clock must be stable before the system exits from shut down mode.

SOLDERING RECOMMENDATIONS Recommended Reflow Profile for Lead Free Solder Note: The quality of solder joints on the castellations (‘half vias’) where they contact the host board should meet the appropriate IPC Specification. See IPC-A-610-D Acceptability of Electronic Assemblies, section 8.2.4 Castellated Terminations.” Figure 6 Reflow Profile Repeating Reflow Soldering Only a single reflow soldering process is encouraged for host boards.
CLEANING In general, cleaning the populated modules is strongly discouraged. Residuals under the module cannot be easily removed with any cleaning process.  Cleaning with water can lead to capillary effects where water is absorbed into the gap between the host board and the module. The combination of soldering flux residuals and encapsulated water could lead to short circuits between neighboring pads. Water could also damage any stickers or labels.  Cleaning with alcohol or a similar organic solvent will likely flood soldering flux residuals into the RF shield, which is not accessible for post-washing inspection. The solvent could also damage any stickers or labels.  Ultrasonic cleaning could damage the module permanently. OPTICAL INSPECTION After soldering the Module to the host board, consider optical inspection to check the following:  Proper alignment and centering of the module over the pads.  Proper solder joints on all pads.  Excessive solder or contacts to neighboring pads, or vias. REWORK The module can be unsoldered from the host board if the Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) requirements are met as described in this datasheet. Never attempt a rework on the module itself, e.g. replacing individual components. Such actions will terminate warranty coverage. HANDLING AND STORAGE Handling The modules contain a highly sensitive electronic circuitry. Handling without proper ESD protection may destroy or damage the module permanently. ESD protection may destroy or damage the module permanently. Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) Per J-STD-020, devices rated as MSL 4 and not stored in a sealed bag with desiccant pack should be baked prior to use. After opening packaging, devices that will be subjected to reflow must be mounted within 72 hours of factory conditions (<30°C and 60% RH) or stored at <10% RH. Bake devices for 48 hours at 125°C. Storage Please use this product within 6 months after receipt. Any product used after 6 months of receipt needs to have solderability confirmed before use. The product shall be stored without opening the packing under the ambient temperature from 5 to 35deg.C and humidity from 20 to 70%RH. (Packing materials, in particular, may be deformed at the temperatures above this range.) Do not store in salty air or in an environment with a high concentration of corrosive gas, such as Cl2, H2S, NH3, SO2, or NOX. Do not store in direct sunlight. The product should not be subject to excessive mechanical shock.
