Transmit Power Back-off Note: Applies to 2.4GHz low band only. When 2.7 V < VIN < 3.6 V, the output power shall be backed off by 0.8 dB per 300 mV drop of VIN below 3.6 V to guarantee meeting spectral mask, EVM, harmonic levels, spurious emissions and regulatory requirements in general. When 2.3 V < VIN < 2.7 V, an additional back-off of the output power is needed to guarantee meeting spectral mask, EVM, harmonic levels, spurious emissions and regulatory requirements in general. When the load is not 50, the output power is backed off to guarantee meeting spectral mask, EVM, harmonic levels, spurious emissions and regulatory requirements in general. The device is able to withstand a VSWR of up to 12:1 without any damage. When the temperature increases from +25C to +85C, the output power shall be backed off by 0.25 dB per 10C increase to guarantee meeting spectral mask, EVM, harmonic levels, spurious emissions and regulatory requirements in general.

Hardware Block Diagram 2.4GHz 5GHz RF Switch ACC1340 WLAN External Antennas Main Clock www.ampedrftech.com 11 SPI SDIO 3. Hardware Design 3.1. PCB layout guide * All unused pins should be left floating; do not ground. * All GND pins must be well grounded. * Traces should not be routed underneath the module. * Use short, 50 ohm impedance, RF traces. Routing should be on the top layer. * A diplexer may be used to combine 2.4GHz and 5GHz RF signals. * Keep the clock and power signals far away from RF signals. * Use two 22uF tan capacitors near Vin pin 9. * SDIO signal traces should be equal length and their offset should be under 50mil according to the clock of SDIO. * All power supply lines should meet their power requirements. * LPO traces should keep clear from other low frequency traces, such as IIC. 3.2. Module Reflow Installation The WF61 is a surface mount WiFi module supplied on a 44 pin, 6-layer PCB. The final assembly recommended reflow profiles are: For RoHS/Pb-free applications, Sn96.5/Ag3.0/Cu0.5 solder is recommended. * Maximum peak temperature of 230 - 240C (below 250C). * Maximum rise and fall slope after liquidous of < 2C/second. * Maximum rise and fall slope after liquidous of < 3C/second. * Maximum time at liquidous of 40 - 80 seconds. www.ampedrftech.com 12 4.

Startup behavior 5.1. WL_REG_ON A valid reset shall be obtained by maintaining WL_REG_ON active (low) for at least two cycles of LPO after VIN is stable within its operating range. There is no constraint on the activation of the other supplies during this process. 5.2. SDIO and SPI interface SDIO DATA2 is the selection pin; the state of this pin is monitored on the rising edge of RESET. * LOW selects SPI * HIGH selects SDIO www.ampedrftech.com 15 6.
