Users Manual

Version 1.0 Samsung Electronics page 1 of 7 Manual for SPW-B43143U WiFi module 1. Introduction SPW-B43143U is a Wi-Fi module compliant with IEEE802.11 b.g.n MAC/baseband/radio optimized for low- power applications. The core chipset is from Broadcom, part number BCM43143. 2. Hardware Architecture: 2.1 Main Chipset Information Item Vendor Part Number IEEE802.11 b.g.n mac/baseband/radio Broadcom BCM43143 2.2 Circuit Block Diagram The major internal and external block diagram of SPW-B43143U is illustrated in Figure 1-1. Figure 1-1 SPW-B43143U block diagram and System Interface Version 1.0 Samsung Electronics page 2 of 7 2.3 RF Specification All measurements are made under nominal power supply and room temperature 25 °C unless specified. RF specification of SPW-B43143U was defined according to 802.11b/g mandatory 2.3.1 Supportable Modulation Scheme & Data Rates Version 1.0 Samsung Electronics page 3 of 7 2.3.2 Module output power information Data rate TX power 2.4G 802.11 b11Mbps +17dBm 802.11 g54Mbps +14dBm 802.11 n65Mbps (MCS7) +13 dBm 2.3.3 Channel & Center Frequency Version 1.0 Samsung Electronics page 4 of 7 3. Operational Description SPW-B43143U is the 802.11 b/g/n RF Module that acts as a communication controller for users of a wireless device to connect to WiFi TV. This uses IEEE 802.11n network with 13 channels at 2.4GHz - Features >IEEE 802.11 b/g/n client > Band 2.4GHz >Integrated PA, LNA >Green Tx power saving mode >Low power listen mode >1T1R mode with support of 150Mbps PHY rate >Security support for WFA WPA/WPA2 personal, WPS2.0, WAPI >Host interface : USB2.0 High-speed - Time base of the RF frequency For IF and RF frequency, a crystal(20MHz) is a clock reference. - Synthesizer Synthesizer inside Transceiver. Internal voltage controlled oscillator (VCO) provides the desired LO signal base on the phase-locked loop (PLL) with a relatively wide tuning range for this application. - Transmission Base-band Processing (BBP) IC has DSSS (BPSK/QPSK/CCK) and OFDM (BPSK/QPSK/16QAM/64QAM) modulation function, it provides transmission data rate are 1, 2, 5.5, 11 Mbps on DSSS and 6, 12, 18, 24, 36, 48, 54 Mbps on OFDM. Digital data signal will be converted to analog (TX IQ) signals through DAC in BBP IC, TX IQ pass through to low pass filter. TX I/Q signal use direct conversion (zero-IF) architecture converter to generate carrier frequency signal. Transceiver IC and internal PA magnify output power. - Receiver Reverse direction isolation of LNA inside Transceiver IC suppresses unwanted radiation. Then RF signal will be directly down to IF signal (RX IQ) and high frequency spurious emissions are suppressed by LPF. At last RX IQ signal will be demodulated digital data. - Power Control Level It uses open-loop power control function to limit RF output power level using a calibration file. - Integrated Network Processor Network processor manages Wi-Fi link operations. The network processor code is loaded automatically from a ROM. The network processor is optimized for energy efficient communications Version 1.0 Samsung Electronics page 5 of 7 - Product Details > Data Modulation OFDM (BPSK / QPSK / 16QAM / 64QAM) > Frequency Range 2412-2462MHz 4. Notice _ FCC Statement This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) This device must accept any interference received including interference that cause undesired operation. _ Warning Any changes or modifications NOT explicitly APPROVED by Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. could cause the SPW-B43143U module to cease to comply with FCC rules part 15, and thus void the user's authority to operate the equipment. _ RF-exposure statement These modular transmitters, SPW- B43143U , comply with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment. The SPW-B43143U should be installed and operated with minimum distance 20cm between the antenna and the body of the user or nearby persons. The OEM integrator has to be aware not to provide information to the end user regarding how to install or remove this RF module in the users manual of the end product which integrate this module. This device is intended only for OEM integrators under the following conditions: 1) The antenna must be installed such that 20 cm is maintained between the antenna and users, and 2) The transmitter module may not be co-located with any other transmitter or antenna. As long as the 2 conditions above are met, further transmitter testing will not be required. However, the OEM integrator is still responsible for testing their end product for any additional compliance requirements required with this module installed (for example, digital device emissions, PC peripheral requirements, etc.). IMPORTANT NOTE: In the event that these conditions cannot be met (for example certain laptop configurations or co-location with another transmitter), then the FCC authorization is no longer considered valid and the FCC ID and IC number cannot be used on the final product. In these circumstances, the OEM integrator will be responsible for re-evaluating the end product (including the transmitter). _ Antenna These modular transmitters are for OEM integrations only. The end-user product will be installed in such a manner that only the authorized antennas are used. Version 1.0 Samsung Electronics page 6 of 7 FCC Information to User 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 d…
