1.5 Firmware
The on-board BlueCore 5 chip made by CSR, is supplied with Bluetooth v2.1 + EDR compliant stack firmware,
which runs on the internal RISC microcontroller.
The BlueCore 5 chip software architecture allows Bluetooth processing and the application program to be shared
in different ways between the internal RISC microcontroller and an external host processor. The upper layers
of the Bluetooth stack (above HCI) can be run either on-chip or on the host processor.
2 Basic Operating Information
2.1 Power Supply
The MM516 is supplied from a single external regulated 3.3V supply voltage (VDD). This supply voltage must always be
present.
The BlueCore 5 chip contains an internal 1.8 V switch mode power supply which is enabled by connecting pin 31
(VREGEN_H) to VDD. The output of the regulator is on pin 34 (LX) and needs to be connected to pin 33 (1V8) with a low
pass filter comprised of a 22uH inductor (Taiyo Yuden LBR2518T220K or equivalent) between the pins and a 10uF, low ESR
ceramic capacitor on pin 33.
.
The 1.8V voltage may not be used for supplying other components in the host system.
2.2 Clocking
The MM516 module contains a24 MHz crystal from which the internal system clock for the BlueCore 5 chip is generated.

3 Physical Description
3.1 RF Receiver
The receiver features a near-zero IF architecture that allows the channel filters to be integrated onto the die. Sufficient
out-of-band blocking specification at the LNA input allows the radio to be used in close proximity to GSM and WCDMA
cellular phone transmitters without being desensitized. The use of a digital FSK discriminator means that no
discriminator tank is needed and its excellent performance in the presence of noise allows BlueCore 5 chip to
exceed the Bluetooth requirements for co-channel and adjacent channel rejection.
For EDR, an ADC is used to digitize the IF received signal.
3.1.1 Low Noise Amplifier
The LNA can be configured to operate in single-ended or differential mode. Single-ended mode is used for Class 1
Bluetooth operation; differential mode is used for Class 2 operation.
3.1.2 Analog to Digital Converter
The ADC is used to implement fast AGC. The ADC samples the RSSI voltage on a slot-by-slot basis. The front-end
LNA gain is changed according to the measured RSSI value, keeping the first mixer input signal within a limited
range. This improves the dynamic range of the receiver, improving performance in interference limited environments.
3.2 RF Transmitter
3.2.1 IQ Modulator
The transmitter features a direct IQ modulator to minimize the frequency drift during a transmit timeslot, which results
in a controlled modulation index. Digital baseband transmit circuitry provides the required spectral shaping.
3.2.2 Power Amplifier
The internal PA has a maximum output power of 6dBm. This allows BlueCore 5 chip to be used in Class 2 and
Class 3 radios without an external RF PA.
Support for transmit power control allows a simple implementation for Class 1 with an external RF PA.
3.3 RF Synthesizer
The radio synthesizer is fully integrated onto the die with no requirement for an external VCO screening can, varactor
tuning diodes, LC resonators or loop filter. The synthesizer is guaranteed to lock in sufficient time across the
guaranteed temperature range to meet the Bluetooth v2.1 + EDR specification.
3.4 Clock Input and Generation
The reference clock for the system is generated from a crystal input of 24MHz. All internal
reference clocks are generated using a phase locked loop, which is locked to the external reference frequency.

3.5 Baseband and Logic
3.5.1 Memory Management Unit
The MMU provides a number of dynamically allocated ring buffers that hold the data that is in transit between the
host and the air. The dynamic allocation of memory ensures efficient use of the available RAM and is performed by
a hardware MMU to minimize the overheads on the processor during data/voice transfers.
3.5.2 Burst Mode Controller
During radio transmission the BMC constructs a packet from header information previously loaded into memory mapped
registers by the software and payload data/voice taken from the appropriate ring buffer in the RAM. During
radio reception, the BMC stores the packet header in memory-mapped registers and the payload data in the
appropriate ring buffer in RAM. This architecture minimizes the intervention required by the processor during
transmission and reception.
3.5.3 Physical Layer Hardware Engine DSP
Dedicated logic is used to perform the following:
Forward error correction
Header error control
Cyclic redundancy check
Encryption
Data whitening
Access code correlation
Audio transcoding
The following voice data translations and operations are performed by firmware:
A-law/μ-law/linear voice data (from host)
A-law/μ-law/CVSD (over the air)
Voice interpolation for lost packets
Rate mismatch correction
The hardware supports all optional and mandatory features of Bluetooth v2.1 + EDR including AFH and eSCO.
3.5.4 System RAM
48KB 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.
3.5.5 External Memory Driver
The External Memory Driver interface can be used to connect to the external Flash memory and also to the optional
external RAM for memory intensive applications.
3.5.6 Kalimba DSP RAM
Additional on-chip RAM is provided to support the Kalimba DSP:
16K x 24-bit for data memory 1 (DM1)
12K x 24-bit for data memory 2 (DM2)
6K x 32-bit for program memory (PM)
DSP can also execute directly from external Flash, using a 64-instruction on-chip cache.
3.5.7 USB
This is a full-speed USB interface for communicating with other compatible digital devices. BlueCore 5 chip acts
as a USB peripheral, responding to requests from a master host controller such as a PC.

3.5.9 UART
This is a standard UART interface for communicating with other serial devices.
3.6 Microcontroller
The MCU, interrupt controller and event timer run the Bluetooth software stack and control the radio and host
interfaces. A 16-bit RISC microcontroller is used for low power consumption and efficient use of memory.
3.6.1 Programmable I/O
BlueCore 5 chip has a total of 18 programmable I/O terminals (16 digital and 2 analog). These are controlled by
firmware running on the device.
3.6.2 802.11 Coexistence Interface
Dedicated hardware is provided to implement a variety of 802.11 (Wi-Fi) coexistence schemes. Channel skipping
AFH, priority signalling, channel signalling and host passing of channel instructions are all supported. The features
are configured in firmware. The details of some methods are proprietary. Contact CSR for details.

4.2 Key Features of the HCI Stack: Extra Functionality
The firmware extends the standard Bluetooth functionality with the following features:
Supports BlueCore Serial Protocol (BCSP), a proprietary, reliable alternative to the standard Bluetooth
UART Host Transport
Supports H4 Deep Sleep (H4DS), a proprietary alternative to the standard Bluetooth UART Host Transport,
supporting Deep Sleep for low-power applications
Provides a set of approximately 50 manufacturer-specific HCI extension commands. This command set,
called BlueCore Command (BCCMD), provides:
Access to BlueCore5-Multimedia External general-purpose PIO port
The negotiated effective encryption key length on established Bluetooth links
Access to the firmware random number generator
Controls to set the default and maximum transmit powers; these can help minimise interference
between overlapping, fixed-location piconets
Dynamic UART configuration
Bluetooth radio transmitter enable/disable. A simple command connects to a dedicated hardware
switch that determines whether the radio can transmit.
The firmware can read the voltage on a pair of BlueCore5-Multimedia External external pins. This is normally
used to build a battery monitor
A block of BCCMD commands provides access to the BlueCore5-Multimedia External Persistent Store (PS)
configuration database . The database sets the BlueCore5-Multimedia External Bluetooth address, Class
of Device, Bluetooth radio (transmit class) configuration, SCO routing, link manager (LM), etc.
A UART break condition can be used in three ways:
Presenting a UART break condition to the chip can force the chip to perform a hardware reboot
Presenting a break condition at boot time can hold the chip in a low power state, preventing normal
initialization while the condition exists
With BCSP, the firmware can be configured to send a break to the host before sending data. (This is
normally used to wake the host from a Deep Sleep state.)
A block of Bluetooth radio test or BIST commands allows direct control of the
BlueCore5-Multimedia External radio. This aids the development of modules' radio designs, and can be
used to support Bluetooth qualification.
Hardware low power modes: Shallow Sleep and Deep Sleep. The chip drops into modes that significantly
reduce power consumption when the software goes idle.
SCO channels are normally routed via HCI (over BCSP). However, up to three SCO channels can be routed
over the PCM interface (at the same time as routing any remaining SCO channels over HCI).

5 Interfaces
5.1 UART Interface
This is a standard UART interface for communicating with other serial devices.
BlueCore 5 chip UART interface provides a simple mechanism for communicating with other serial devices using
the RS232 protocol.
Figure 4 Universal Asynchronous Receiver/Transmitter
Four signals are used to implement the UART function, as shown in Figure 4. When BlueCore 5 chip 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 signalling levels of
0V and VDD_USB.
UART configuration parameters, such as data rate and packet format, are set using BlueCore 5 chip software.
Note:
In order to communicate with the UART at its maximum data rate using a standard PC, an accelerated serial
port adapter card is required for the PC.

Table 2 UART Settings
The UART interface is capable of resetting BlueCore 5 chip upon reception of a break signal. A break is identified
by a continuous logic low (0V) on the UART_RX terminal, as shown in Figure 5. If t BRK is longer than the value,
defined by PSKEY_HOST_IO_UART_RESET_TIMEOUT, (0x1a4), a reset will occur. This feature allows a host to initialize
the system to a known state. Also, BlueCore 5 chip
can emit a break character that may be used to wake the host.

Note:
The DFU boot loader must be loaded into the Flash device before the UART or USB interfaces can be used.
This initial flash programming can be done via the SPI.
Table 3 shows a list of commonly used data rates and their associated values for PSKEY_UART_BAUD_RATE (0x204).
There is no requirement to use these standard values. Any data rate within the supported range can be set in the
PS Key according to the formula
Data Rate = PSKEY_UART_BAUDRATE/0.004096
