Features
- General Features
- IEEE 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac radio with virtual-simultaneous dual-band operation
- Provides a highly integrated WLAN system-on-chip (SoC) for 5GHz 802.11ac, or 2.4GHz/5GHz 802.11n WLAN applications
- Supports BT 5.0 + HS, BLE and ANT+ and backward compatibility with BT 1.x and BT 2.x + Enhanced Data Rate
- Supports a single-ended RF port for cleaner and lower cost design
- Supports 20MHz/40MHz at 2.4GHz and supports 20MHz, 40MHz, or 80MHz at 5GHz
- Supports BT_WLAN coexistence and ISM-LTE coexistence
- Operates on one 3.3-volt power supply and an I/O supply of 1.8V or 3.3V. Both WLAN and BT power management use advanced power-saving techniques such as:
- Gating clocks to idle or inactive blocks
- Voltage scaling to specific blocks in certain states
- Fast start and settling circuits reduce TX
- Active duty cycles
- Processor frequency scaling
- Other techniques to optimize power consumption across all operating states
- Includes additional features such as:
- Low-density parity check (LDPC)
- 1.5Kb of Module one-time programmable (OTP) memory to eliminate the need for an external flash and to further reduce the external component count and BOM cost
- Supports BT for Class 1 and Class 2 power-level transmissions without requiring an external PA
- Module WLAN driver execution capable of supporting IEEE 802.11 functionality
- WLAN host interface options
