2.2.1 BlueCore04

BlueCore4 is a single chip Bluetooth solution which implements the Bluetooth radio
transceiver and also an on chip microcontroller. BlueCore4 implements Bluetooth®
2.0+EDR (Enhanced Data Rate) and it can deliver data rates up to 3 Mbps.

The microcontroller (MCU) on BlueCore04 acts as interrupt controller and event timer run
the Bluetooth software stack and control the radio and host interfaces. A 16-bit reduced
instruction set computer (RISC) microcontroller is used for low power consumption and
efficient use of memory.

BlueCore04 has 48Kbytes of on-chip RAM is provided to support the RISC MCU and is
shared between the ring buffers used to hold voice/data for each active connection and
the general purpose memory required by the Bluetooth stack.

6. ANTENNA KEEP OUT AREA




                        Figure 6: PCB design around ACX antenna

Figure four above illustrates how PCB design around the antenna of WT11 should be
made. The most important thing is that there is no copper (ground plane or traces)
underneath or in the close proximity of the ACX antenna.

It’s also very important to have grounding vias all the way in the border between ground
plane and free space, as illustrated with black and gray dots in figure 4. This prevents the
RF signal for reflecting back to the PCB and signal lines over there.

For more information, please refer to the WT11 design guide and design references.

Physical Interfaces

7.1 UART Interface

WT11 Universal Asynchronous Receiver Transmitter (UART) interface provides a simple
mechanism for communicating with other serial devices using the RS232 standard1.

                             Figure 8: WT11 UART interface

Four signals are used to implement the UART function, as shown in Figure 11.12. When
WT11 is connected to another digital device, UART_RX and UART_TX transfer data
between the two devices. The remaining two signals, UART_CTS and UART_RTS, can be
used to implement RS232 hardware flow control where both are active low indicators. All
UART connections are implemented using CMOS technology and have signaling levels of
0V and VDD_PADS.



                            Figure 9: WRAP THOR VM Stack

In figure above, the iWRAP software solution is described. In this version of the stack
firmware shown no host processor is required to run the Bluetooth protocol stack. All
software layers, including application software, run on the internal RISC processor in a
protected user software execution environment known as a Virtual Machine (VM).

The host processor interfaces to iWRAP software via one or more of the physical interfaces
which are also shown in the figure above. The most common interfacing is done via UART
interface using the ASCII commands supported by the iWRAP software. With these ASCII
commands the user can access Bluetooth functionality without paying any attention to the
complexity which lies in the Bluetooth protocol stack.

The user may write applications code to run on the host processor to control iWRAP
software with ASCII commands and to develop Bluetooth powered applications.

Notes:

More details of iWRAP software and it’s features can be found from iWRAP User Guide
which can be downloaded from www.bluegiga.com.

Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Statement

15.21

You are cautioned that changes or modifications not expressly approved by the part
responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.

15.105(b)

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital
device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC rules. These limits are designed to provide
reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This
equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed
and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio
communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a
particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or
television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the
user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following
measures:

-Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

-Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.

-Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver
is connected.

-Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.



Operation is subject to the following two conditions:


1) this device may not cause interference and


2) this device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause
undesired operation of the device.


FCC RF Radiation Exposure Statement:

This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled
environment. End users must follow the specific operating instructions for satisfying RF
exposure compliance. This transmitter must not be co-located or operating in conjunction
with any other antenna or transmitter.


Note: The end product shall has the words “Contains Transmitter Module
FCC ID: QOQWT11”
