BCM43340
Single-Chip, Dual-Band (2.4 GHz/5 GHz) IEEE 802.11 a/b/
g/n MAC/Baseband/Radio with Integrated Bluetooth 4.0
and FM Receiver
GE NE R AL DE S C RI PT ION

®
The Broadcom BCM43340 single–chip quad–radio
device provides the highest level of integration for a
mobile or handheld wireless system, with integrated
dual band (2.4 GHz / 5 GHz) IEEE 802.11 a/b/g and
single–stream IEEE 802.11n MAC/baseband/radio,
Bluetooth 4.0, and FM radio receiver. The BCM43340
includes integrated power amplifiers and LNAs for the
2.4 GHz and 5 GHz WLAN bands, and an integrated
2.4 GHz T/R switch. This greatly reduces the external
part count, PCB footprint, and cost of the solution.
The BCM43340 implements the highly sophisticated
Enhanced Collaborative Coexistence algorithms and
hardware mechanisms, allowing for an extremely
collaborative Bluetooth coexistence scheme along
with coexistence support for external radios (such as
cellular and LTE, GPS, WiMAX, and Ultra–Wideband)
and a single shared 2.4 GHz antenna for Bluetooth
and WLAN. As a result, enhanced overall quality for
simultaneous voice, video, and data transmission on
a handheld system is achieved.
Using advanced design techniques and process
technology to reduce active and idle power, the
BCM43340 is designed to address the needs of
mobile devices that require minimal power
consumption and compact size. It includes a power
management unit which simplifies the system power
topology and allows for operation directly from a
mobile platform battery while maximizing battery life.
For the WLAN section, two host interface options are
included: an SDIO v2.0 interface (including gSPI) and
a High-Speed Inter-Chip (HSIC) interface (a USB 2.0
derivative for short-distance on-board connections).
An independent, high-speed UART is provided for the
Bluetooth host interface.

Mobile Phone Usage Model
BCM43340 Data Sheet
Mobile Phone Usage Model
The BCM43340 incorporates a number of unique features to simplify integration into mobile phone platforms.
Its flexible PCM and UART interfaces enable it to transparently connect with the existing circuits. In addition, the
TCXO and LPO inputs allow the use of existing handset features to further minimize the size, power, and cost
of the complete system.
•
The PCM interface provides multiple modes of operation to support both master and slave as well as hybrid
interfacing to single or multiple external codec devices.
•
The UART interface supports hardware flow control with tight integration to power control sideband
signaling to support the lowest power operation.
•
The TCXO interface accommodates any of the typical reference frequencies used by cell phones.
•
FM digital interfaces can use either I2S, PCM, or stereo analog output (an analog FM receiver interface is
available for legacy systems.)
•
The highly linear design of the radio transceiver ensures that the device has the lowest spurious emissions
output regardless of the state of operation. It has been fully characterized in the global cellular bands.
•
The transceiver design has excellent blocking (eliminating desensitization of the Bluetooth receiver) and
intermodulation performance (distortion of the transmitted signal caused by the mixing of the cellular and
Bluetooth transmissions) in the presence of a any cellular transmission (GSM®, GPRS, CDMA, WCDMA,
or iDEN). Minimal external filtering is required for integration inside the handset.
The BCM43340 is designed to provide direct interface with new and existing handset designs as shown in
Figure 3.

Power Supplies and Power Management
BCM43340 Data Sheet
Section 2: Power Supplies and Power
Management
Power Supply Topology
One Buck regulator, multiple LDO regulators, and a Power Management Unit (PMU) are integrated into the
BCM43340. All regulators are programmable via the PMU. These blocks simplify power supply design for
Bluetooth, WLAN, and FM in embedded designs.
A single VBAT (2.9–4.8V) and VIO supply (1.8V to 3.3V) can be used, with all additional voltages being provided
by the regulators in the BCM43340.
Two control signals, BT_REG_ON and WL_REG_ON, are used to power-up the regulators and take the
respective section out of reset. The CBUCK CLDO and LNLDO power up when any of the reset signals are
deasserted. All regulators are powered down only when both BT_REG_ON and WL_REG_ON are deasserted.
The CLDO and LNLDO may be turned off/on based on the dynamic demands of the digital baseband.
The BCM43340 allows for an extremely low power-consumption mode by completely shutting down the
CBUCK, CLDO, and LNDLO regulators. When in this state, LPLDO1 and LPLDO2 (which are low-power linear
regulators that are supplied by the system VIO supply) provide the BCM43340 with all the voltages it requires,
further reducing leakage currents.

WLAN Power Management
BCM43340 Data Sheet
WLAN Power Management
The BCM43340 has been designed with the stringent power consumption requirements of mobile devices in
mind. All areas of the chip design are optimized to minimize power consumption. Silicon processes and cell
libraries were chosen to reduce leakage current and supply voltages. Additionally, the BCM43340 integrated
RAM is a high Vt memory with dynamic clock control. The dominant supply current consumed by the RAM is
leakage current only. Additionally, the BCM43340 includes an advanced WLAN power management unit (PMU)
sequencer. The PMU sequencer provides significant power savings by putting the BCM43340 into various
power management states appropriate to the current environment and activities that are being performed. The
power management unit enables and disables internal regulators, switches, and other blocks based on a
computation of the required resources and a table that describes the relationship between resources and the
time needed to enable and disable them. Power up sequences are fully programmable. Configurable, freerunning counters (running at 32.768 kHz LPO clock) in the PMU sequencer are used to turn on/turn off individual
regulators and power switches. Clock speeds are dynamically changed (or gated altogether) for the current
mode. Slower clock speeds are used wherever possible.
The BCM43340 WLAN power states are described as follows:
•
Active mode— All WLAN blocks in the BCM43340 are powered up and fully functional with active carrier
sensing and frame transmission and receiving. All required regulators are enabled and put in the most
efficient mode based on the load current. Clock speeds are dynamically adjusted by the PMU sequencer.
•
Doze mode—The radio, analog domains, and most of the linear regulators are powered down. The rest of
the BCM43340 remains powered up in an IDLE state. All main clocks (PLL, crystal oscillator or TCXO) are
shut down to reduce active power to the minimum. The 32.768 kHz LPO clock is available only for the PMU
sequencer. This condition is necessary to allow the PMU sequencer to wake up the chip and transition to
Active mode. In Doze mode, the primary power consumed is due to leakage current.
•
Deep-sleep mode—Most of the chip including both analog and digital domains and most of the regulators
are powered off. Logic states in the digital core are saved and preserved into a retention memory in the
always-ON domain before the digital core is powered off. Upon a wake-up event triggered by the PMU
timers, an external interrupt or a host resume through the HSIC or SDIO bus, logic states in the digital core
are restored to their pre-deep-sleep settings to avoid lengthy HW re-initialization.
•
Power-down mode—The BCM43340 is effectively powered off by shutting down all internal regulators. The
chip is brought out of this mode by external logic re-enabling the internal regulators.

PMU Sequencing
BCM43340 Data Sheet
PMU Sequencing
The PMU sequencer is responsible for minimizing system power consumption. It enables and disables various
system resources based on a computation of the required resources and a table that describes the relationship
between resources and the time needed to enable and disable them.
Resource requests may come from several sources: clock requests from cores, the minimum resources defined
in the ResourceMin register, and the resources requested by any active resource request timers. The PMU
sequencer maps clock requests into a set of resources required to produce the requested clocks.
Each resource is in one of four states: enabled, disabled, transition_on, and transition_off and has a timer that
contains 0 when the resource is enabled or disabled and a non-zero value in the transition states. The timer is
loaded with the time_on or time_off value of the resource when the PMU determines that the resource must be
enabled or disabled. That timer decrements on each 32.768 kHz PMU clock. When it reaches 0, the state
changes from transition_off to disabled or transition_on to enabled. If the time_on value is 0, the resource can
go immediately from disabled to enabled. Similarly, a time_off value of 0 indicates that the resource can go
immediately from enabled to disabled. The terms enable sequence and disable sequence refer to either the
immediate transition or the timer load-decrement sequence.
During each clock cycle, the PMU sequencer performs the following actions:
1. Computes the required resource set based on requests and the resource dependency table.
2. Decrements all timers whose values are non zero. If a timer reaches 0, the PMU clears the
ResourcePending bit for the resource and inverts the ResourceState bit.
3. Compares the request with the current resource status and determines which resources must be enabled or
disabled.
4. Initiates a disable sequence for each resource that is enabled, no longer being requested, and has no
powered up dependents.
5. Initiates an enable sequence for each resource that is disabled, is being requested, and has all of its
dependencies enabled.

Power-Off Shutdown
BCM43340 Data Sheet
Power-Off Shutdown
The BCM43340 provides a low-power shutdown feature that allows the device to be turned off while the host,
and any other devices in the system, remain operational. When the BCM43340 is not needed in the system,
VDDIO_RF and VDDC are shut down while VDDIO remains powered. This allows the BCM43340 to be
effectively off while keeping the I/O pins powered so that they do not draw extra current from any other devices
connected to the I/O.
During a low-power shut-down state, provided VDDIO remains applied to the BCM43340, all outputs are
tristated, and most inputs signals are disabled. Input voltages must remain within the limits defined for normal
operation. This is done to prevent current paths or create loading on any digital signals in the system, and
enables the BCM43340 to be fully integrated in an embedded device and take full advantage of the lowest
power-savings modes.
Two signals on the BCM43340, the frequency reference input (WRF_XTAL_CAB_OP) and the LPO_IN input,
are designed to be high-impedance inputs that do not load down the driving signal even if the chip does not have
VDDIO power applied to it.
When the BCM43340 is powered on from this state, it is the same as a normal power-up and the device does
not retain any information about its state from before it was powered down.
Power-Up/Power-Down/Reset Circuits
The BCM43340 has two signals (see Table 1) that enable or disable the Bluetooth and WLAN circuits and the
internal regulator blocks, allowing the host to control power consumption. For timing diagrams of these signals
and the required power-up sequences, see Section 21: “Power-Up Sequence and Timing,” on page 142.
Table 1: Power-Up/Power-Down/Reset Control Signals
Signal
Description
WL_REG_ON This signal is used by the PMU (with BT_REG_ON) to power up the WLAN section. It is also
OR-gated with the BT_REG_ON input to control the internal BCM43340 regulators. When this
pin is high, the regulators are enabled and the WLAN section is out of reset. When this pin is
low, the WLAN section is in reset. If BT_REG_ON and WL_REG_ON are both low, the
regulators are disabled. This pin has an internal 200 k pull-down resistor that is enabled by
default. It can be disabled through programming.
BT_REG_ON
This signal is used by the PMU (with WL_REG_ON) to decide whether or not to power down
the internal BCM43340 regulators. If BT_REG_ON and WL_REG_ON are low, the regulators
will be disabled. This pin has an internal 200 k pull-down resistor that is enabled by default.
It can be disabled through programming.

Frequency References
BCM43340 Data Sheet
S e c t i o n 3 : F re q u e n c y R e f e r e n c e s
An external crystal is used for generating all radio frequencies and normal operation clocking. As an alternative,
an external frequency reference driven by a temperature-compensated crystal oscillator (TCXO) signal may be
used. In addition, a low-power oscillator (LPO) is provided for lower power mode timing.
Note: The crystal and TCXO implementations have different power supplies (WRF_XTAL_VDD1P2
for crystal, WRF_TCXO_VDD for TCXO).
Crystal Interface and Clock Generation
The BCM43340 can use an external crystal to provide a frequency reference. The recommended configuration
for the crystal oscillator including all external components is shown in Figure 5. Consult the reference
schematics for the latest configuration.

A fractional-N synthesizer in the BCM43340 generates the radio frequencies, clocks, and data/packet timing,
enabling it to operate using a wide selection of frequency references.
For SDIO and HSIC applications the default frequency reference is a 37.4 MHz crystal or TCXO. The signal
characteristics for the crystal interface are listed in Table 2 on page 28.
Note: Although the fractional-N synthesizer can support alternative reference frequencies,

TCXO
BCM43340 Data Sheet
TCXO
As an alternative to a crystal, an external precision TCXO can be used as the frequency reference, provided
that it meets the Phase Noise requirements listed in Table 2. When the clock is provided by an external TCXO,
there are two possible connection methods, as shown in Figure 6 and Figure 7:
1. If the TCXO is dedicated to driving the BCM43340, it should be connected to the WRF_XTAL_OP pin
through an external 1000 pF coupling capacitor, as shown in Figure 6. The internal clock buffer connected
to this pin will be turned OFF when the BCM43340 goes into sleep mode. When the clock buffer turns ON
and OFF there will be a small impedance variation. If the TCXO is to be shared with another device, such
as a GPS receiver, and impedance variation is not allowed, a dedicated external clock buffer will be needed.
Power must be supplied to the WRF_XTAL_VDD1P2 pin.
2. For 2.4 GHz operation only, an alternative is to DC-couple the TCXO to the WRF_TCXO_CK pin, as shown
in Figure 7. Use this method when the same TCXO is shared with other devices and a change in the input
impedance is not acceptable because it may cause a frequency shift that cannot be tolerated by the other
device sharing the TCXO. This pin is connected to a clock buffer powered from WRF_TCXO_VDD. If the
power supply to this buffer is always on (even in sleep mode), the clock buffer is always on, thereby ensuring
a constant input impedance in all states of the device. The maximum current drawn from WRF_TCXO_VDD
is approximately 500 µA.

Frequency Selection
BCM43340 Data Sheet
Frequency Selection
Any frequency within the ranges specified for the crystal and TCXO reference may be used. These include not
only the standard handset reference frequencies of 19.2, 19.44, 19.68, 19.8, 20, 26, 37.4, and 52 MHz, but also
other frequencies in this range, with approximately 80 Hz resolution. The BCM43340 must have the reference
frequency set correctly in order for any of the UART or PCM interfaces to function correctly, since all bit timing
is derived from the reference frequency.
Note: The fractional-N synthesizer can support many reference frequencies. However, frequencies
other than the default require support to be added in the driver plus additional, extensive system
testing. Contact Broadcom for further details.
The reference frequency for the BCM43340 may be set in the following ways:
•
Set the xtalfreq=xxxxx parameter in the nvram.txt file (used to load the driver) to correctly match the crystal
frequency.
•
Auto-detect any of the standard handset reference frequencies using an external LPO clock.
For applications such as handsets and portable smart communication devices, where the reference frequency
is one of the standard frequencies commonly used, the BCM43340 automatically detects the reference
frequency and programs itself to the correct reference frequency. In order for auto frequency detection to work
correctly, the BCM43340 must have a valid and stable 32.768 kHz LPO clock that meets the requirements listed
in Table 3 on page 30 and is present during power-on reset.

External 32.768 kHz Low-Power Oscillator
BCM43340 Data Sheet
External 32.768 kHz Low-Power Oscillator
The BCM43340 uses a secondary low frequency clock for low-power-mode timing. Either the internal lowprecision LPO or an external 32.768 kHz precision oscillator is required. The internal LPO frequency range is
approximately 33 kHz ± 30% over process, voltage, and temperature, which is adequate for some applications.
However, a trade-off caused by this wide LPO tolerance is a small current consumption increase during WLAN
power save mode that is incurred by the need to wake up earlier to avoid missing beacons. Whenever possible,
the preferred approach for WLAN is to use a precision external 32.768 kHz clock that meets the requirements
listed in Table 3.
Note: BTFM operations require the use of an external LPO that meets the requirements listed in
Table 3.

FM Receiver Subsystem
BCM43340 Data Sheet
Section 8: FM Receiver Subsystem
FM Radio
The BCM43340 includes a completely integrated FM radio receiver with RDS/RBDS covering all FM bands from
76 MHz to 108 MHz. The receiver is controlled through commands on the HCI. FM received audio is available
as a stereo analog output or in digital form through I2S or PCM. The FM radio operates from the external clock
reference.
Digital FM Audio Interfaces
The FM audio can be transmitted via the shared PCM and I2S pins, and the sampling rate is programmable.
The BCM43340 supports a three-wire PCM or I2S audio interface in either master or slave configuration. The
master or slave configuration is selected using vendor specific commands over the HCI interface. In addition,
multiple sampling rates are supported, derived from either the FM or Bluetooth clocks. In master mode, the clock
rate is either of the following:
•
48 kHz x 32 bits per frame = 1.536 MHz
•
48 kHz x 50 bits per frame = 2.400 MHz
In slave mode, any clock rate is supported up to a maximum of 3.072 MHz.
Analog FM Audio Interfaces
The demodulated FM audio signal is available as line-level analog stereo output, generated by twin internal high
SNR audio DACs.
FM Over Bluetooth
The BCM43340 can output received FM audio onto Bluetooth using one of following three links: eSCO, WBS,
and A2DP. In all of the above modes, once the link has been set up, the host processor can enter sleep mode
while the BCM43340 continues to stream FM audio to the remote Bluetooth device, allowing the system current
consumption to be minimized.
Broadcom®
January 28, 2015 • 43340-DS109-R
BROADCOM CONFIDENTIAL
Page 58
eSCO
BCM43340 Data Sheet
eSCO
In this use case, the stereo FM audio is downsampled to 8 kHz and a mono or stereo stream is then sent through
the Bluetooth eSCO link to a remote Bluetooth device, typically a headset. Two Bluetooth voice connections
must be used to transport stereo.
Wideband Speech Link
In this case, the stereo FM audio is downsampled to 16 kHz and a mono or stereo stream is then sent through
the Bluetooth wideband speech link to a remote Bluetooth device, typically a headset. Two Bluetooth voice
connections must be used to transport stereo.
A2DP
In this case, the stereo FM audio is encoded by the on-chip SBC encoder and transported as an A2DP link to a
remote Bluetooth device. Sampling rates of 48 kHz, 44.1 kHz, and 32 kHz joint stereo are supported. An A2DP
lite stack is implemented in the BCM43340 to support this use case, which eliminates the need to route the SBCencoded audio back to the host to create the A2DP packets.
Autotune and Search Algorithms
The BCM43340 supports a number of FM search and tune functions that allows the host to implement many
convenient user functions, which are accessed through the Broadcom FM stack.
•
Tune to Play—Allows the FM receiver to be programmed to a specific frequency.
•
Search for SNR > Threshold—Checks the power level of the available channel and the estimated SNR of
the channel to help achieve precise control of the expected sound quality for the selected FM channel.
Specifically, the host can adjust its SNR requirements to retrieve a signal with a specific sound quality, or
adjust this to return the weakest channels.
•
Alternate Frequency Jump—Allows the FM receiver to automatically jump to an alternate FM channel that
carries the same information, but has a better SNR. For example, when traveling, a user may pass through
a region where a number of channels carry the same station. When the user passes from one area to the
next, the FM receiver can automatically switch to another channel with a stronger signal to spare the user
from having to manually change the channel to continue listening to the same station.

Audio Features
BCM43340 Data Sheet
Audio Features
A number of features are implemented in the BCM43340 to provide the best possible audio experience for the
user.
•
Mono/Stereo Blend or Switch—The BCM43340 provides automatic control of the stereo or mono settings
based on the FM signal carrier-to-noise ratio (C/N). This feature is used to maintain the best possible audio
SNR based on the FM channel condition. Two modes of operation are supported:
– Blend—In this mode, fine control of stereo separation is used to achieve optimal audio quality over a
wide range of input C/N. The amount of separation is fully programmable. In Figure 21, the separation is
programmed to maintain a minimum 50 dB SNR across the blend range.
– Switch—In this mode, the audio switches from full stereo to full mono at a predetermined level to
maintain optimal audio quality. The stereo-to-mono switch point and the mono-to-stereo switch points
are fully programmable to provide the desired amount of audio SNR. In Figure 22, the switch point is
programmed to switch to mono to maintain a 40 dB SNR.

Audio Features
BCM43340 Data Sheet

•
Soft Mute—Improves the user experience by dynamically muting the output audio proportionate to the FM
signal C/N. This prevents the user from being assaulted with a blast of static. The mute characteristic is
fully programmable to accommodate fine tuning of the output signal level. An example mute characteristic
is shown in Figure 23.

RDS/RBDS
BCM43340 Data Sheet
•
High Cut—A programmable high-cut filter is provided to reduce the amount of high-frequency noise
caused by static in the output audio signal. Like the soft mute circuit, it is fully programmable to allow for
any amount of high cut based on the FM signal C/N.
•
Audio Pause Detect—The FM receiver monitors the magnitude of the audio signal and notifies the host
through an interrupt when the magnitude of the signal has fallen below the threshold set for a
programmable period. This feature can be used to provide alternate frequency jumps during periods of
silence to minimize disturbances to the listener. Filtering techniques are used within the audio pause
detection block to provide more robust presence-to-silence detection and silence-to-presence detection.
•
Automatic Antenna Tuning—The BCM43340 has an on-chip automatic antenna tuning network. When
used with a single off-chip inductor, the on-chip circuitry automatically chooses an optimal on-chip matching
component to obtain the highest signal strength for the desired frequency. The high-Q nature of this
matching network simultaneously provides out-of-band blocking protection as well as a reduction of
radiated spurious emissions from the FM antenna. It is designed to accommodate a wide range of external
wire antennas.
RDS/RBDS
The BCM43340 integrates a RDS/RBDS modem, the decoder includes programmable filtering and buffering
functions. The RDS/RBDS data can be read out through the HCI interface.
In addition, the RDS/RBDS receive functionality supports the following:
•
Block decoding, error correction and synchronization
•
Flywheel synchronization feature, allowing the host to set parameters for acquisition, maintenance, and
loss of sync. (It is possible to set up the BCM43340 such that synch is achieved when a minimum of two
good blocks (error free) are decoded in sequence. The number of good blocks required for sync is
programmable.)
•
Storage capability up to 126 blocks of RDS data
•
Full or partial block B match detect and interrupt to host
•
Audio pause detection with programmable parameters
•
Program Identification (PI) code detection and interrupt to host
•
Automatic frequency jump
•
Block E filtering
•
Soft mute

WLAN Global Functions
BCM43340 Data Sheet
Section 9: WLAN Global Functions
WLAN CPU and Memory Subsystem
The BCM43340 includes an integrated ARM Cortex-M3™ processor with internal RAM and ROM. The ARM
Cortex-M3 processor is a low-power processor that features low gate count, low interrupt latency, and low-cost
debug. It is intended for deeply embedded applications that require fast interrupt response features. The
processor implements the ARM architecture v7-M with support for Thumb®-2 instruction set. ARM Cortex-M3
delivers 30% more performance gain over ARM7TDMI®.
At 0.19 µW/MHz, the Cortex-M3 is the most power efficient general purpose microprocessor available,
outperforming 8- and 16-bit devices on MIPS/µW. It supports integrated sleep modes.
ARM Cortex-M3 uses multiple technologies to reduce cost through improved memory utilization, reduced pin
overhead, and reduced silicon area. ARM Cortex-M3 supports independent buses for code and data access
(ICode/DCode and system buses). ARM Cortex-M3 supports extensive debug features including real time trace
of program execution.
On-chip memory for the CPU includes 512 KB SRAM and 640 KB ROM.
One-Time Programmable Memory
Various hardware configuration parameters may be stored in an internal 3072-bit One-Time Programmable
(OTP) memory, which is read by the system software after device reset. In addition, customer-specific
parameters, including the system vendor ID and the MAC address can be stored, depending on the specific
board design.
The initial state of all bits in an unprogrammed OTP device is 0. After any bit is programmed to a 1, it cannot be
reprogrammed to 0. The entire OTP array can be programmed in a single write cycle using a utility provided with
the Broadcom WLAN manufacturing test tools. Alternatively, multiple write cycles can be used to selectively
program specific bytes, but only bits which are still in the 0 state can be altered during each programming cycle.
Prior to OTP programming, all values should be verified using the appropriate editable nvram.txt file, which is
provided with the reference board design package.

UART Interface
One UART interface can be enabled by software as an alternate function on pins WL_GPIO4 and WL_GPIO_5.
Provided primarily for debugging during development, this UART enables the BCM43340 to operate as RS-232
data termination equipment (DTE) for exchanging and managing data with other serial devices. It is compatible
with the industry standard 16550 UART and provides a FIFO size of 64 × 8 in each direction.
JTAG Interface
The BCM43340 supports the IEEE 1149.1 JTAG boundary scan standard for performing device package and
PCB assembly testing during manufacturing. In addition, the JTAG interface allows Broadcom to assist
customers by using proprietary debug and characterization test tools during board bring-up. Therefore, it is

Write
The host puts the first bit of the data onto the bus half a clock-cycle before the first active edge following the CS
going low. The following bits are clocked out on the falling edge of the gSPI clock. The device samples the data
on the active edge.
Write/Read
The host reads on the rising edge of the clock requiring data from the device to be made available before the
first rising clock edge of the clock burst for the data. The last clock edge of the fixed delay word can be used to
represent the first bit of the following data word. This allows data to be ready for the first clock edge without
relying on asynchronous delays.

The read command always follows a separate write to set up the WLAN device for a read. This command differs
from the write/read command in the following respects: a) chip selects go high between the command/address
and the data and b) the time interval between the command/address is not fixed.

Status
The gSPI interface supports status notification to the host after a read/write transaction. This status notification
provides information about any packet errors, protocol errors, information about available packet in the RX
queue, etc. The status information helps in reducing the number of interrupts to the host. The status-reporting
feature can be switched off using a register bit, without any timing overhead. The gSPI bus timing for read/write
transactions with and without status notification are as shown in Figure 32 and Figure 33 on page 72. See

gSPI Host-Device Handshake
To initiate communication through the gSPI after power-up, the host needs to bring up the WLAN/Chip by writing
to the wake-up WLAN register bit. Writing a 1 to this bit will start up the necessary crystals and PLLs so that the
BCM43340 is ready for data transfer. The device can signal an interrupt to the host indicating that the device is
awake and ready. This procedure also needs to be followed for waking up the device in sleep mode. The device
can interrupt the host using the WLAN IRQ line whenever it has any information to pass to the host. On getting
an interrupt, the host needs to read the interrupt and/or status register to determine the cause of interrupt and
then take necessary actions.
Boot-Up Sequence
After power-up, the gSPI host needs to wait 150 ms for the device to be out of reset. For this, the host needs to
poll with a read command to F0 addr 0x14. Address 0x14 contains a predefined bit pattern. As soon as the host
gets a response back with the correct register content, it implies that the device has powered up and is out of
reset. After that, the host needs to set the wakeup-WLAN bit (F0 reg 0x00 bit 7). The wakeup-WLAN issues a
clock request to the PMU.
For the first time after power-up, the host must wait for the availability of low power clock inside the device. Once
that is available, the host must write to a PMU register to set the crystal frequency, which turns on the PLL. After
the PLL is locked, the chipActive interrupt is issued to the host. This interrupt indicates the device awake/ready
status. See Table 17 for information on gSPI registers.
In Table 17, the following notation is used for register access:
•
R: Readable from host and CPU
•

bidirectional data strobe (STROBE) and a bidirectional DDR data signal (DATA), it provides high-speed serial
480 Mbps data transfers that are 100% host driver compatible with traditional USB 2.0 cable-connected
topologies.
Figure 35 shows the blocks in the HSIC device core.

PSM
The programmable state machine (PSM) is a micro-coded engine, which provides most of the low-level control
to the hardware, to implement the IEEE 802.11 specification. It is a microcontroller that is highly optimized for
flow control operations, which are predominant in implementations of communication protocols. The instruction
set and fundamental operations are simple and general, which allows algorithms to be optimized until very late
in the design process. It also allows for changes to the algorithms to track evolving IEEE 802.11 specifications.
The PSM fetches instructions from the microcode memory. It uses the shared memory to obtain operands for
instructions, as a data store, and to exchange data between both the host and the MAC data pipeline (via the
SHM bus). The PSM also uses a scratchpad memory (similar to a register bank) to store frequently accessed
and temporary variables.
The PSM exercises fine-grained control over the hardware engines, by programming internal hardware registers
(IHR). These IHRs are co-located with the hardware functions they control, and are accessed by the PSM via
the IHR bus.
The PSM fetches instructions from the microcode memory using an address determined by the program
counter, instruction literal, or a program stack. For ALU operations the operands are obtained from shared
memory, scratchpad, IHRs, or instruction literals, and the results are written into the shared memory, scratchpad,
or IHRs.

MAC Features
BCM43340 Data Sheet
There are two basic branch instructions: conditional branches and ALU based branches. To better support the
many decision points in the IEEE 802.11 algorithms, branches can depend on either a readily available signals
from the hardware modules (branch condition signals are available to the PSM without polling the IHRs), or on
the results of ALU operations.
WEP
The wired equivalent privacy (WEP) engine encapsulates all the hardware accelerators to perform the
encryption and decryption, and MIC computation and verification. The accelerators implement the following
cipher algorithms: legacy WEP, WPA TKIP, WPA2 AES-CCMP.
The PSM determines, based on the frame type and association information, the appropriate cipher algorithm to
be used. It supplies the keys to the hardware engines from an on-chip key table. The WEP interfaces with the
TXE to encrypt and compute the MIC on transmit frames, and the RXE to decrypt and verify the MIC on receive
frames.
TXE
The transmit engine (TXE) constitutes the transmit data path of the MAC. It coordinates the DMA engines to
store the transmit frames in the TXFIFO. It interfaces with WEP module to encrypt frames, and transfers the
frames across the MAC-PHY interface at the appropriate time determined by the channel access mechanisms.
The data received from the DMA engines are stored in transmit FIFOs. The MAC supports multiple logical
queues to support traffic streams that have different QoS priority requirements. The PSM uses the channel
access information from the IFS module to schedule a queue from which the next frame is transmitted. Once
the frame is scheduled, the TXE hardware transmits the frame based on a precise timing trigger received from
the IFS module.
The TXE module also contains the hardware that allows the rapid assembly of MPDUs into an A-MPDU for
transmission. The hardware module aggregates the encrypted MPDUs by adding appropriate headers and pad
delimiters as needed.
RXE
The receive engine (RXE) constitutes the receive data path of the MAC. It interfaces with the DMA engine to
drain the received frames from the RXFIFO. It transfers bytes across the MAC-PHY interface and interfaces with
the WEP module to decrypt frames. The decrypted data is stored in the RXFIFO.
The RXE module contains programmable filters that are programmed by the PSM to accept or filter frames
based on several criteria such as receiver address, BSSID, and certain frame types.
The RXE module also contains the hardware required to detect A-MPDUs, parse the headers of the containers,
and disaggregate them into component MPDUS.

MAC Features
BCM43340 Data Sheet
IFS
The IFS module contains the timers required to determine interframe space timing including RIFS timing. It also
contains multiple backoff engines required to support prioritized access to the medium as specified by WMM.
The interframe spacing timers are triggered by the cessation of channel activity on the medium, as indicated by
the PHY. These timers provide precise timing to the TXE to begin frame transmission. The TXE uses this
information to send response frames or perform transmit frame-bursting (RIFS or SIFS separated, as within a
TXOP).
The backoff engines (for each access category) monitor channel activity, in each slot duration, to determine
whether to continue or pause the backoff counters. When the backoff counters reach 0, the TXE gets notified,
so that it may commence frame transmission. In the event of multiple backoff counters decrementing to 0 at the
same time, the hardware resolves the conflict based on policies provided by the PSM.
The IFS module also incorporates hardware that allows the MAC to enter a low-power state when operating
under the IEEE power save mode. In this mode, the MAC is in a suspended state with its clock turned off. A
sleep timer, whose count value is initialized by the PSM, runs on a slow clock and determines the duration over
which the MAC remains in this suspended state. Once the timer expires the MAC is restored to its functional
state. The PSM updates the TSF timer based on the sleep duration ensuring that the TSF is synchronized to
the network.
The IFS module also contains the PTA hardware that assists the PSM in Bluetooth coexistence functions.
TSF
The timing synchronization function (TSF) module maintains the TSF timer of the MAC. It also maintains the
target beacon transmission time (TBTT). The TSF timer hardware, under the control of the PSM, is capable of
adopting timestamps received from beacon and probe response frames in order to maintain synchronization
with the network.
The TSF module also generates trigger signals for events that are specified as offsets from the TSF timer, such
as uplink and downlink transmission times used in PSMP.
NAV
The network allocation vector (NAV) timer module is responsible for maintaining the NAV information conveyed
through the duration field of MAC frames. This ensures that the MAC complies with the protection mechanisms
specified in the standard.
The hardware, under the control of the PSM, maintains the NAV timer and updates the timer appropriately based
on received frames. This timing information is provided to the IFS module, which uses it as a virtual carriersense indication.
MAC-PHY Interface
The MAC-PHY interface consists of a data path interface to exchange RX/TX data from/to the PHY. In addition,
there is an programming interface, which can be controlled either by the host or the PSM to configure and control
the PHY.

WLAN Radio Subsystem
BCM43340 Data Sheet
Section 12: WLAN Radio Subsystem
The BCM43340 includes an integrated dual-band WLAN RF transceiver that has been optimized for use in
2.4 GHz and 5 GHz Wireless LAN systems. It has been designed to provide low-power, low-cost, and robust
communications for applications operating in the globally available 2.4 GHz unlicensed ISM or 5 GHz U-NII
bands. The transmit and receive sections include all on-chip filtering, mixing, and gain control functions.
Receiver Path
The BCM43340 has a wide dynamic range, direct conversion receiver. It employs high order on-chip channel
filtering to ensure reliable operation in the noisy 2.4 GHz ISM band or the entire 5 GHz U-NII band. Control
signals are available that can support the use of optional external low noise amplifiers (LNA), which can increase
the receive sensitivity by several dB.
Transmit Path
Baseband data is modulated and upconverted to the 2.4 GHz ISM or 5-GHz U-NII bands, respectively. The
BCM43340 includes an on-chip regulator which regulates VBAT down to 3.3V for the BCM43340 on-chip linear
Power Amplifiers. Closed-loop output power control is provided by means of internal a-band and g-band power
detectors.
Calibration
The BCM43340 features dynamic and automatic on-chip calibration to continually compensate for temperature
and process variations across components. This enables the BCM43340 to be used in high-volume
applications, because calibration routines are not required during manufacturing testing. These calibration
routines are performed periodically in the course of normal radio operation. Examples of some of the automatic
calibration algorithms are baseband filter calibration for optimum transmit and receive performance and LOFT
calibration for carrier leakage reduction. In addition, I/Q Calibration, R Calibration, and VCO Calibration are
performed on-chip. No per-board calibration is required in manufacturing test, which helps to minimize test time
and cost during large volume production.

WLAN GPIO Signals and Strapping Options
The pins listed in Table 19 on page 93 are sampled at power-on reset (POR) to determine the various operating
modes. Sampling occurs a few milliseconds after an internal POR or deassertion of the external POR. After the
POR, each pin assumes the GPIO or alternative function specified in the signal descriptions table. Each
strapping option pin has an internal pull-up (PU) or pull-down (PD) resistor that determines the default mode.
To change the mode, connect an external PU resistor to VDDIO or a PD resistor to GND, using a 10 kΩ resistor
or less.
Note: Refer to the reference board schematics for more information.

Note:
1. Keeper column: N=pad has no keeper. Y=pad has a keeper. Keeper is always active except in Power-down state.
2. If there is no keeper, and it is an input and there is Nopull, then the pad should be driven to prevent leakage due to floating pad (e.g., SDIO_CLK).
3. In the Power-down state (xx_REG_ON=0): High-Z; NoPull => the pad is disabled because power is not supplied.
4. Depending on whether the PCM interface is enabled and the configuration of PCM is in master or slave mode, it can be either output or input.
5. Depending on whether the I2S interface is enabled and the configuration of I2S is in master or slave mode, it can be either output or input.
6. GPIO_6 is input-only during the Low-Power and Deep-Sleep modes.
7. GPIO_0 through GPIO_5 and GPIO_12 can be configured to operate as inputs or outputs in Deep-Sleep mode before entering the mode.
8. The GPIO pull states for the Active and Low-Power states are hardware defaults. They can all be subsequently programmed as pull-ups or pull-downs.
9. Regarding GPIO pins, the following are the pull-up and pull-down values for both 3.3V and 1.8V VDDIO:

Power-Up Sequence and Timing
BCM43340 Data Sheet
Section 21: Power-Up Sequence and
Ti m i n g
Sequencing of Reset and Regulator Control Signals
The BCM43340 has three signals that allow the host to control power consumption by enabling or disabling the
Bluetooth, WLAN, and internal regulator blocks. These signals are described below. Additionally, diagrams are
provided to indicate proper sequencing of the signals for various operational states (see Figure 46, Figure 47
on page 143, and Figure 48 and Figure 49 on page 144). The timing values indicated are minimum required
values; longer delays are also acceptable.
Note:
•
•
•
•
The WL_REG_ON and BT_REG_ON signals are ORed in the BCM43340. The diagrams show
both signals going high at the same time (as would be the case if both REG signals were controlled
by a single host GPIO). If two independent host GPIOs are used (one for WL_REG_ON and one
for BT_REG_ON), then only one of the two signals needs to be high to enable the BCM43340
regulators.
The reset requirements for the Bluetooth core are also applicable for the FM core. In other words,
if FM is to be used, then the Bluetooth core must be enabled.
The BCM43340 has an internal power-on reset (POR) circuit. The device will be held in reset for
a maximum of 110 ms after VDDC and VDDIO have both passed the POR threshold (see
Table 25: “Recommended Operating Conditions and DC Characteristics,” on page 100). Wait at
least 150 ms after VDDC and VDDIO are available before initiating SDIO accesses.
VBAT should not rise faster than 40 µs. VBAT should be up before or at the same time as VDDIO.
VDDIO should NOT be present first or be held high before VBAT is high.
Description of Control Signals
•
WL_REG_ON: Used by the PMU to power up the WLAN section. It is also OR-gated with the BT_REG_ON
input to control the internal BCM43340 regulators. When this pin is high, the regulators are enabled and the
WLAN section is out of reset. When this pin is low the WLAN section is in reset. If both the BT_REG_ON
and WL_REG_ON pins are low, the regulators are disabled.
•
BT_REG_ON: Used by the PMU (OR-gated with WL_REG_ON) to power up the internal BCM43340
regulators. If both the BT_REG_ON and WL_REG_ON pins are low, the regulators are disabled. When this
pin is low and WL_REG_ON is high, the BT section is in reset.
Note: For both the WL_REG_ON and BT_REG_ON pins, there should be at least a 10 msec time
delay between consecutive toggles (where both signals have been driven low). This is to allow time
for the CBUCK regulator to discharge. If this delay is not followed, then there may be a VDDIO in-rush
current on the order of 36 mA during the next PMU cold start.

a. No heat sink, TA = 70°C. This is an estimate, based on a 4-layer PCB that conforms to EIA/JESD51–7
(101.6 mm × 101.6 mm × 1.6 mm) and P = 1.198W continuous dissipation.
Junction Temperature Estimation and PSIJT Versus THETAJC
Package thermal characterization parameter PSI–JT (JT) yields a better estimation of actual junction
temperature (TJ) versus using the junction-to-case thermal resistance parameter Theta–JC (JC). The reason
for this is that JC assumes that all the power is dissipated through the top surface of the package case. In actual
applications, some of the power is dissipated through the bottom and sides of the package. JT takes into
account power dissipated through the top, bottom, and sides of the package. The equation for calculating the
device junction temperature is:
TJ = TT + P x JT
Where:
•
TJ = Junction temperature at steady-state condition (°C)
•
TT = Package case top center temperature at steady-state condition (°C)
•
P = Device power dissipation (Watts)
•
JT = Package thermal characteristics; no airflow (°C/W)
