Introduction

This document forms the Reference Integration Note for the Bluetooth* 4.0 Transceiver in X-GOLD™ 223, a GSM/GPRS and EDGE-RX Single Chip with Integrated RF Transceiver, Power Management Unit, Stereo FM RDS Receiver and Transmitter. Anyone interested in designing a mobile phone with this component should read this guide.

Table 1 Design RIN Information

Product Name: X-GOLD™ 223

Bluetooth Qualified

Design ID (QD ID):

B018991

Bluetooth Product Type: Component

Design Model number: PMB8818

Hardware Version1: 6 (BT-XG223)

Software Version1: 1 (BT IP 4.0)

This guide is targeted to help a Bluetooth Member or their BQE understand the role of the Bluetooth Transceiver in X-GOLD™ 223 in a complete mobile phone. The Bluetooth Program Reference Document requires that all Bluetooth Components have a Reference Integration Note (RIN) as a pre-requisite for qualification. This RIN has been uploaded to the Bluetooth SIG Qualification Listing Interfaces for the Qualified Design ID B018991 prior to qualification of this design and is available for Member use for their product implementation.

Additionally refer to the Bluetooth Design Guide for X-GOLD™ 223 which provides more detailed information and which is available under NDA.

Product Type Declaration


1 Product Type Declaration

This product is listed as Bluetooth Component Product. If you use this product to implement Bluetooth in your mobile phone, further qualification and listing is required in accordance with the Bluetooth Qualification Process (ref. PRD 2.0). To start the process for a new qualification, please visit https://bluetooth.org/TPG/.

2 Hardware Overview

X-GOLDTM

223 (PMB8818) is a GSM/GPRS and EDGE-RX Single Chip with Integrated RF Transceiver, Power Management Unit, Stereo FM RDS Receiver and Transmitter and embedded Bluetooth 4.0 controller.

The Bluetooth Transceiver complies with the Bluetooth core specification 4.0 supporting Bluetooth low energy technology. The Bluetooth Transceiver includes RF and baseband functionality from antenna to HCI.

The RF block including integrated balun and antenna switch, is provided as a hard macro. and offers an integrated Class 1 Power Amplifier.

4 Application

X-GOLD™ 223 is a GSM, GPRS and EDGE-RX (EDGE-TX with external TX transceiver) baseband controller. It has an integrated RF transceiver, Power Management Unit, Audio Front-End, Bluetooth and a FM Radio RX/TX with RDS. In addition to the modem functionality, X-GOLD™ 223 provides a rich set of multimedia extensions to enable todays and future Entry Phone applications. It is designed as a single chip solution, to meet the ever increasing demands of the GSM, GPRS and EDGE cellular subscriber market for Entry Phone and Ultra Low Cost terminals.

A mobile phone reference design is available under the platform name XMM2231.

Block Diagram


5 Block Diagram

The following figure shows a block diagram of the Bluetooth Transceiver embedded in the host chip:

The Bluetooth Host is implemented by the CPU of the X-GOLD™ 223. It connects to the Bluetooth Controller through HCI, which is implemented through a UART interface. Audio data is transmitted to the signal processing unit over a serial audio interface (I2S). The host chip provides power supplies and clocks. A W-LAN coexistence interface is provided.

For test and qualification purposes, some test signals of the Bluetooth controller can be routed to pins.

HCI can be routed to a UART interface

Audio can be routed to a configurable PCM/I2S interface

6 Hardware Features

Technology: − SoC, Monolithic, 65 nm CMOS

Package: − LF2BGA, 10 x 10 x 1.0 mm − 0.5 mm pitch − 235 placable balls − Low cost PCB technologies targeted

Bluetooth − BT core spec 4.0 supported (Dual Mode BR/EDR + LE) − Integrated Class 1 Power Amplifier − WLAN coexistence with PTA − Flexible patching capabilities − Packet Loss Concealment for improved voice quality − Single-ended Bluetooth RF IO − High RF sensitivity


Radio Modules


7 Radio Modules

− GSM, GPRS and EDGE-RX (EDGE-TX with external TX transceiver) baseband controller − Bluetooth 4.0 − FM Radio RX/TX with RDS

8 Interfaces

− 3-wire WLAN coexistence with Packet Type Arbitration − Virtual UART for HCI to internal Host, parallel interface for higher throughput

(Can be routed to external UART for qualification and test) − I2S interface to internal Audio block

(Can be routed to external I2S/PCM interface for test purposes)

9 Application Requirements

The Bluetooth host is implemented on the main CPU of X-GOLD™ 223.

The host can control a WLAN device through an SPI interface. The WLAN coexistence interface allows for antenna arbitration by the WLAN device. This enables the implementation of Bluetooth “High Speed” applications.

The Bluetooth controller is a BR/EDR and LE dual mode device, which enables implementation of “Bluetooth smart” applications.

The RF interface is a single ended 50 Ohm input/output port. The use of a band pass filter for the ISM band is recommended.

An external antenna is required. The component has been qualified for an antenna gain up to 2.5 dB.

For more detailed implementation requirements, including layout recommendations, please refer to the Bluetooth Design Guide for X-GLD™ 223.
