DEVICE OVERVIEW
The IS1870/71 SoC contains a 2.4 GHz transceiver, a
Power Management Unit (PMU), Microchip’s Bluetooth
Low Energy software stack and an RF power amplifier.
The default factory configuration is designed to work
with a host MCU to provide the user with an embedded
Bluetooth Low Energy design setup for the IoT application domain.
Note:
Flexibility of the IS1870/71 SoC enables
the user to work in a host-less
implementation. In this configuration, the
user can embed a full application into the
IS1870/71 SoC. Contact your local
Microchip representative for further
guidance on obtaining this setup.
The IS1870/71 SoC provides:
• Simple integration and programming
• Reduced development time
• Superior Bluetooth Low Energy solution with
low-cost system
• Interoperability with Apple® iOS and Android™
OS
• Wide range of application support
With the default factory configuration, the IS1870/71
SoC supports Beacon technology, where the
automation
of
Bluetooth
Low
Energy
connection/control and cloud connectivity are common.
The IS1870/71 SoC is optimized to maintain a low
power wireless connection. The low power
consumption and flexible power management maximize the IS1870/71 SoC lifetime in battery operated
devices. A wide operating temperature range enables
its applications in indoor and outdoor environments
(industrial temperature range is -40°C to +85°C).
The small form factor package size of the IS1870/71
SoC is designed for wearable applications. The solution providers can minimize the module size to meet
the market requirements, which is commonly seen in
the IoT application domain.
To operate in the 2.4 GHz ISM band radio, the
IS1870/71 SoC is certified for the Bluetooth v5.0 core
specification, including support for the enhanced
throughput and the Federal Information Processing
Standard (FIPS) compliant encryption support for
secure data connections.
The IS1870/71 SoC integrates transceiver and baseband functions to decrease external components.
Microchip provides free Bluetooth stack firmware to
build an embedded Bluetooth Low Energy solution,
using the IS1870/71 SoC.

System Block Descriptions
This section provides a description of the blocks used
in the IS1870/71 SoC.
in various modes, controlling the amount of time the
peak current is active, maximizing the battery life. The
factory firmware enables the designer to perform the
calibration for the internal LDOs to compensate for
variations in the board design and other
manufacturing-related artifacts.
2.1.1
Figure 2-1 illustrates the power tree diagram of the
IS1870/71 SoC.
PMU
The IS1870/71 SoC includes a DC-DC converter and
four LDOs. Microchip's Bluetooth Low Energy software
stack is used for controlling and operating these LDOs
FIGURE 2-1:

IS1870/71 SOC POWER TREE DIAGRAM
ALWAYS ON LOGIC
2.1.4
Always On (AON) is the hardware-based state
machine, which is controlled by Microchip's Bluetooth
stack. Together, the software and hardware logic maintain the power-up, power-down and low power
sequences of the IS1870/71 SoC, by providing optimal
device performance. It includes an RTC timer and I/O
detector to wake-up the system from Power-Saving
mode using time out or external general I/O transition.
This allows the SoC to run in Power-Saving mode while
maintaining an active connection with a peer device
and minimizing power consumption.
2.1.3
MCU
Microchip provides the Bluetooth Low Energy software
stack, which runs on the IS1870/71 SoC’s internal 8051
core. The stack resides in a combination of ROM, RAM
and embedded Flash. The software stack is
responsible for scheduling the Bluetooth Low Energy
tasks and for processing the Bluetooth Low Energy
protocol and profiles.
RF
This SoC is controlled by Microchip’s Bluetooth stack,
which contains an on-chip RF circuit, a controller and a
modulator (Tx)/demodulator (Rx). The Tx is used to
control the synthesizer's phase and output power and
modulate the data based on the Bluetooth Low Energy
specifications. The Rx is used to decode the Bluetooth
signal and optimize the performance, such as
IQ-imbalance, suppress DC and flick noise. It is also
used to compensate the frequency drift and offset, and
filter out interference to maximize receiver sensitivity.

Note 1: The current measurements are characterized across a sample of the BM70/71 module at room temperature
(+25°C), unless otherwise noted.
2: For more details on “Reduced current consumption” or “Shutdown” low power modes, refer to the “BM70/71
Bluetooth® Low Energy Module User's Guide” (DS50002542). This rating is part of the characterization of
the default factory firmware.
3: ADC performance characterized with V1.06 production firmware across a set of IC's are not tested during
production.
4: Calculated DNL/INL values are determined using “Best Fit” method.
