3.1Embedded ARM core and System Support Logic
The processing elements of the CS22250 include the ARM7TDMI core and its associated
system control logic. The ARM processor and system controller consist of a memory
management unit, 4-KB write through cache controller, 20 IRQ and 4 FIRQ interrupt
controller, and 2 general purpose timers. The ARM processor and integrated system
support logic provide the necessary execution engine to support a real time multi-tasking
operating system, the network protocol stack, and firmware services.
Memory Management UnitThe ARM instructions and data are fetched from system
memory per “cache-line” (4/8 – Dwords /Programmable) when caching is turned on.
During a cache line fill, critical word data, i.e., the access that caused the miss, is
forwarded to the ARM and also written into the data RAM cache. The non-critical words
in the line fetched following the critical word are then written to the cache on a Dword
basis, as they become available.
Memory writes are posted to dual 4-Dwords (32-bit) memory write posting buffers. Write
posts use the sequential addressing feature on the memory bus. With dual buffering, an
out-of-sequence write will post to one write buffer while the other buffer is flushed to
memory.
There is one 8Dword read buffer in the MEM block. The buffer is used for both cacheable
and non-cacheable memory space.
Interrupt Controller
The Interrupt Controller provides two interrupt channels to the ARM processor. One
interrupt channel is presented to the ARM on its nFIQ and the other channel is presented
on its nIRQ pin. These are referred to as the FIQ channel and the IRQ channel. Both
channels operate in identical but independent fashion. The FIQ channel has a higher
priority on the ARM processor than the IRQ channel.
The Interrupt Controller includes a CONTROL register for each logical interrupt in the
ARM Complex. The CONTROL register serves the following main purposes:
• Provides the mapping between the EXT_INT inputs (physical interrupts) and the
logical interrupt
• Selects the particular type of signaling expected on the EXT_INT inputs: level, edge,
active level high/low, etc.
• Enables or disables a logical interrupt

www.cirrus.com
3.2Digital Wireless Radio Interface
The CS22250 digital radio MAC I/F supports multiple radio baseband and RF interfaces.
The baseband registers can be programmed during the configuration time using the
control port interface. The MAC also provides the capability of programming the signal,
service and length on a per packet basis without ARM intervention. This significantly
improves the performance of the system.
There are three primary digital interface ports for the CS22250 that are used for
configuration and during normal operation.
These ports are:
• The Control Port, which is used to configure, set power consumption modes, write
and/or read the status of the radio base band registers
• The TX Port, which is used to output the data that needs to be transmitted from the
network processor
• The RX Port, which is used to input the received demodulated data to the network
processor
3.3FEC Codec
The FEC codec performs Reed-Solomon code encoding to protect the data before it is
transmitted to a noisy channel. It is a similar code as employed by the digital broadcast
industry, such as ITU-T J.83 for DVB. The RS(255, 239) code implemented by the
CS22250 can reduce error probability to 1/10e-9 in a typical 1/10e-3 error rate
environment. The encoder/decoder can be programmed to vary the coding block length
(N) and correctable error (t) to optimize the tradeoff between channel utilization and data
protection. The range of N is currently set from 20 to 255, and the t is 8. The symbol size
is fixed at 8 bits.
Coding parameters can be set real time, allowing maximum flexibility for the system to
adjust the FEC setting, such as block size, in order to optimize channel efficiency. The
encoder also has a very low latency of two cycles. Both the encoder and decoder are
fully pipelined in structure to achieve single cycle throughput. The FEC can be disabled in
firmware.
3.4High Speed Parallel Interface
This optional connectivity interface is the extension of the ARM control bus brought
outside of the CS22250 chip. In order to reduce the pin count, address and data are
multiplexed in a 32-bit address/data External Control Bus. For ease of connecting other
devices to the CS22250, this bus runs at half the speed of the internal ARM control bus.
The external control Bus interface exchanges data with the main memory via DMAC
(DMA controller block). This functional block supports two DMA engines for full duplex
operation. Moreover, one external interrupt pin is supported.
CS22250 Wireless 10BT Controller7 of 32DS551PP2Rev. 3.0
www.cirrus.com
3.5Programmable Memory Controller
The CS22250 incorporates a general-purpose memory controller. The memory controller
supports both SDRAM/async SRAM memory interface and a FLASH memory interface.
In the RAM configuration, the system memory interface supports up to 4-Mbyte of 16-bit
SDRAM running at frequency up to 103 MHz single-state access cycles or 256KB of 16
bit async SRAM. The memory controller provides programming of SDRAM parameters
such as CAS latency, refresh rate etc; these registers are located in miscellaneous
configuration registers. The CS22250 memory controller supports power saving feature
of the SDRAM by toggling the Clock Enable (CKE) signal. When there are no pending
memory requests from any internal requester, the CS22250 will keep CKE low to cause
the SDRAM to stay in power down mode. Once a memory request is active, the CS22250
will assert CKE high to cause the SDRAM to come out of power down mode.
Typicallythis can reduce memory power consumption by up to 50%.
In ROM configuration, firmware for CS22250 is stored in non-volatile memory and is
accessed through the Boot ROM interface. The maximum addressable ROM space
supported is 1MB. ROM read/write and output enable are shared with RAM control pins.
3.6Ethernet MAC Controller
The Ethernet MAC controller interface allows the Cirrus Logic CS22250 to provide
connectivity to an Ethernet local area network. The controller can be used to interface
with a cable or xDSL modem to share high speed internet multimedia and data traffic in a
wireless home network. The Ethernet MAC controller is fully compliant with the IEEE
802.3 standard. The controller supports both half-duplex CSMA/CD and full-duplex
operation at 10Mbps.
The Ethernet MAC incorporates two power safe modes. The first disable mode disables
the entire MAC core including clocks. The second is a partial sleep mode, which only
disables transmit logic. In this mode, the entire MAC is powered upon receiving an
Ethernet packet. The Ethernet MAC uses two independent DMA controllers to support full
duplex operations with the system memory. The DMA controller is programmed and
configured by the ARM.
3.7USB Configuration Interface
The USB interface is a device interface that allows for bridge configuration from a USBenabled PC. Switching between normal and configuration modes is controlled by external
logic.

The wait bus is a single bit bus, which indicates the processing element
addressed on the external control address space is not capable of
completing the transfer on this cycle.
OSRNWOutput
External control bus read/write.
OSCLKOutput
External control bus clock. This clock is half the frequency of the internal
control clock. External processing element clocks the input data to the
OSAD bus on this clock edge.
NOSRESETOutput
External control bus reset.
OSCTLDIROutput
External control bus direction control. The direction bus is a single bit
bus, which indicates the direction of the tri-state drivers on the
address/data bus. A logic ‘0’ on this bus indicates the tri-state drivers are
on source mode on the OS bus and a logic ‘1’ on this bus indicates the
tri-state drivers are on receive mode from the OS bus.
OSREQOutput
External control bus request. It indicates a transfer has been initiated,
addressed to the external control bus address space. The external
control bus FUB shall de-assert the transfer request on the next OS
cycle, if the OS wait signal is not asserted by the processing element on
the OS bus during the data phase.
OSNINTInput
This is the interrupt for external bus interface to the ARM core.

Notes:
1.Outputs are loaded with 35pf on SMD, 25pf on SMA, SMDQM, SMNRAS, and SMNCAS and 20pf
on SMCLK, SMNCS, and SMCKE.
2.An attempt has been made to balance the setup time needed by the SDRAM and the setup needed
by CS22210 to read data. If there is a problem meeting setup on the SDRAM, there is a
programmable delay line on SMCLK which can help meet the setup time. Care must be taken,
however, not to violate the setup on the return read data. The delay can be increased by a multiple
of 0.25ns by using the SMA[11:09] pins to selectively set the clock delay.

Notes:
1.CCA signal is double synchronized to ARMCLKIN.
2.ARMCLK must be at least 4 times the TXCLK and RXCLK frequency.
3.Harris baseband (3824/3824A) generates RXCLK and TXCLK of 4 Mhz. the duty cycle varies
between 33-40% with a high time of 90.9ns and low time that alternates between 136 and 182ns.
The clock period varies between 227 and 272 ns, giving an effective period of 250ns.
4.TXD delay in 802.11b mode is the result of sampling the TXCLK with the ctlclk, therefore the
maximum delay is equal to two ctlclk periods plus the flop-to-output delay. In this table, ctlclk is
assumed to have a 13 ns period.
5.BBNCS output delay = [(1/ARMCLK freq)*ceiling(SER_CLK_DIV/2)] + 7ns, the specified value is
based on ARMCLK of 77 Mhz and SER_CLK_DIV=8.
