5 Layout Guide Lines
Use good layout practices to avoid excessive noise coupling to supply voltage traces or sensitive analog
signal traces. If using overlapping ground planes use stitching vias separated by max 3 mm to avoid emission
from the edges of the PCB. Connect all the GND pins directly to a solid GND plane and make sure that there
is a low impedance path for the return current following the signal and supply traces all the way from start to
the end.
A good practice is to dedicate one of the inner layers to a solid GND plane and one of the inner layers to
supply voltage planes and traces and route all the signals on top and bottom layers of the PCB. This
arrangement will make sure that any return current follows the forward current as close as possible and any
loops are minimized.

5.1 BT111-A Layout Guide
For optimal performance of the antenna place the module at the corner of the PCB of the mother board as
shown in the figure 7. Optionally the module can be placed on the long edge of the mother board. In this case
the metal clearance area must be extended minimum 10mm from the edge of the module, as shown in figure
7. The layout of the mother board has an impact on the antenna characteristic and radiation pattern, see the
antenna characteristics chapter. Do not place any metal (traces, components, battery etc.) within the
clearance area of the antenna. Connect all the GND pins directly to a solid GND plane. Place the GND vias as
close to the GND pins as possible. Use good layout practices to avoid any excessive noise coupling to signal
lines or supply voltage lines. Avoid placing plastic or any other dielectric material closer than 5 mm from the
antenna. Any dielectric closer than 5 mm from the antenna will detune the antenna to lower frequencies.
The antenna is optimized for mother board thickness of 1.0 mm. If the mother board is thicker than this, the
resonant frequency will be tuned downwards. If the mother board thickness is thinner than 1.0 mm, the
Bluegiga Technologies Oy
Page 12 of 52
resonant frequency will be tuned upwards. S11 is a measure of how big portion of the transmitted power is
reflected back from the antenna. An adequate performance can be expected if S11 is less than – 7 dB. If
using PCB thickness more than 1.6 mm, or if there is dielectric material around the antenna which is likely to
detune the resonant frequency, the antenna can be tuned in the mother board layout by removing FR4 below
the antenna.

7.4 Antenna Characteristics
The antenna is a standard monopole chip antenna. The radiation pattern is strongly dependent on the layout
of the mother board. Usually the gain is highest to the directions where there is most GND and weakest to the
opposite direction. Typically the total radiated efficiency is around 25% - 35%. The maximum gain is 0.5 dBi.

8 Clock Generation
BT111 is using an internal 26 MHz crystal oscillator. All internal digital clocks are generated using a phase
locked loop, which is locked to the 26 MHz crystal oscillator. 26 MHz clock is calibrated in production and the
calibrated settings are stored to the internal EEPROM of BT111. The 32.768 kHz sleep clock is generated
internally to the module. BT111 does not need any external clock sources.
Bluegiga Technologies Oy

interface from a PC.
BT111 uses a 16-bit data and 16-bit address programming and debug interface. Transactions occur when the
internal processor is running or is stopped. Data is written or read one word at a time, or the auto-increment
feature is available for the block access.
Configuring the parameters of the BT111 and running test scripts is also possible via the USB interface with
certain limitations; please see Section 14 for more information.
Bluegiga Technologies Oy
Page 25 of 52
14 Audio Interfaces
BT111 has digital audio interface that is configurable as either a PCM or I2S port.

The audio PCM interface on the BT111 supports:
Continuous transmission and reception of PCM encoded audio data over Bluetooth.
Processor overhead reduction through hardware support for continual transmission and reception of
PCM data.
A bidirectional digital audio interface that routes directly into the baseband layer of the firmware. It
does not pass through the HCI protocol layer.
Hardware on BT111 for sending data to and from a SCO connection.
Up to 3 SCO connections on the PCM interface at any one time.
PCM interface master, generating PCM_SYNC and PCM_CLK.
PCM interface slave, accepting externally generated PCM_SYNC and PCM_CLK.
Various clock formats including:
o Long Frame Sync
o Short Frame Sync
o GCI timing environments
13-bit or 16-bit linear, 8-bit μ-law or A-law companded sample formats.
Receives and transmits on any selection of 3 of the first 4 slots following PCM_SYNC.
The PCM configuration options are enabled by setting PSKEY_PCM_CONFIG32.
14.1.1 PCM Interface Master/Slave
When configured as the master of the PCM interface, BT111 generates PCM_CLK and PCM_SYNC.

14.1.2 Long Frame Sync
Long Frame Sync is the name given to a clocking format that controls the transfer of PCM data words or
samples. In Long Frame Sync, the rising edge of PCM_SYNC indicates the start of the PCM word. When
BT111 is configured as PCM master, generating PCM_SYNC and PCM_CLK, then PCM_SYNC is 8 bits long.
When BT111 is configured as PCM Slave, PCM_SYNC is from 1 cycle PCM_CLK to half the PCM_SYNC
rate.
Figure 17: Long Frame Sync (Shown with 8-bit Companded Sample)
BT111 samples PCM_IN on the falling edge of PCM_CLK and transmits PCM_OUT on the rising edge.
PCM_OUT is configurable as high impedance on the falling edge of PCM_CLK in the LSB position or on the
rising edge.
14.1.3 Short Frame Sync
In Short Frame Sync, the falling edge of PCM_SYNC indicates the start of the PCM word. PCM_SYNC is
always 1 clock cycle long.
Bluegiga Technologies Oy
Page 27 of 52
Figure 18: Short Frame Sync (shown with 16-bit sample)
As with Long Frame Sync, BT111 samples PCM_IN on the falling edge of PCM_CLK and transmits
PCM_OUT on the rising edge. PCM_OUT is configurable as high impedance on the falling edge of PCM_CLK
in the LSB position or on the rising edge.
14.2 Multi-slot Operation
More than 1 SCO connection over the PCM interface is supported using multiple slots. Up to 3 SCO
connections are carried over any of the first 4 slots.
Figure 19: Multi-slot Operation with 2 Slots and 8-bit Companded Samples
14.2.1 GCI Interface
BT111 is compatible with the GCI, a standard synchronous 2B+D ISDN timing interface. The 2 64kbps B
channels are accessed when this mode is configured.
Bluegiga Technologies Oy
Page 28 of 52
Figure 20: GCI Interface
The start of frame is indicated by the rising edge of PCM_SYNC and runs at 8kHz.
14.2.2 Slots and Sample Formats
BT111 receives and transmits on any selection of the first 4 slots following each sync pulse. Slot durations
are either 8 or 16 clock cycles:
8 clock cycles for 8-bit sample formats.
16 clock cycles for 8-bit, 13-bit or 16-bit sample formats.
BT111 supports:
13-bit linear, 16-bit linear and 8-bit μ-law or A-law sample formats.
A sample rate of 8ksps.
Little or big endian bit order.
For 16-bit slots, the 3 or 8 unused bits in each slot are filled with sign extension, padded with zeros or
a programmable 3-bit audio attenuation compatible with some codecs.
Bluegiga Technologies Oy

14.2.5 PCM_CLK and PCM_SYNC Generation
BT111 has 2 methods of generating PCM_CLK and PCM_SYNC in master mode:
Generating these signals by DDS from BT111 internal 4MHz clock. Using this mode limits PCM_CLK
to 128, 256 or 512kHz and PCM_SYNC to 8kHz.
Generating these signals by DDS from an internal 48MHz clock, enables a greater range of
frequencies to be generated with low jitter but consumes more power. To select this second method
set bit 48M_PCM_CLK_GEN_EN in PSKEY_PCM_CONFIG32. When in this mode and with long
frame sync, the length of PCM_SYNC is either 8 or 16 cycles of PCM_CLK, determined by
LONG_LENGTH_SYNC_EN in PSKEY_PCM_CONFIG32.
Following equation describes PCM_CLK frequency when generated from the internal 48MHz clock:
Equation 1: PCM_CLK Frequency Generated Using the Internal 48MHz Clock
Set the frequency of PCM_SYNC relative to PCM_CLK using following equation:
Equation 2: PCM_SYNC Frequency Relative to PCM_CLK
CNT_RATE, CNT_LIMIT and SYNC_LIMIT are set using PSKEY_PCM_LOW_JITTER_CONFIG. As an
example, to generate PCM_CLK at 512kHz with PCM_SYNC at 8kHz, set
PSKEY_PCM_LOW_JITTER_CONFIG to 0x08080177.
Bluegiga Technologies Oy
Page 34 of 52
14.2.6 PCM Configuration
Configure the PCM by using PSKEY_PCM_CONFIG32 and PSKEY_PCM_LOW_JITTER_CONFIG, see your
PS Key file. The default for PSKEY_PCM_CONFIG32 is 0x00800000, i.e. first slot following sync is active, 13-
bit linear voice format, long frame sync and interface master generating 256kHz PCM_CLK from 4MHz
internal clock with no tri-state of PCM_OUT.
14.3 Digital Audio Interface (I2S)
The digital audio interface supports the industry standard formats for I²S, left-justified or right-justified. The
interface shares the same pins as the PCM interface, which means each audio bus is mutually exclusive in its
usage. Table 17 lists these alternative functions.

1.8V OUT / 1.7V – 1.95V IN
15.1 Voltage Regulator Enable
All the regulators are enabled, except the USB linear regulator, by taking the VREG_EN_RST# pin above 1V.
Also the BT111 firmware automatically controls the regulators.
Important Note:
VREG_EN_RST# should not be taken high before the supply on VREG_IN_HV is present.
The VREG_EN_RST# pin is connected internally to the reset function and is powered from VDD_PADS, so do
not apply voltages above VDD_PADS to the VREG_EN_RST# pin. The VREG_EN_RST# pin is pulled down
internally.
15.2 USB Linear Regulator
The integrated USB LDO linear regulator is available as a 3.30V supply rail and is intended to supply the USB
interface and the high-voltage linear regulator. The input voltage range is between 4.25V and 5.75V. The
maximum current from this regulator is 150mA.
This regulator is enabled by default. If the USB linear regulator is not required leave its input (VREG_IN_USB)
unconnected.
15.3 High Voltage Linear Regulator
The integrated high-voltage linear regulator is available to power the main 1.8V supply rail. The input voltage
range is between 2.3V and 4.8V. The maximum current from this regulator is 100mA.
Take VREG_EN_RST# high to enable this regulator.
Important Note:
VREG_EN_RST# should not be taken high before the supply on VREG_IN_HV is present.
If this regulator is not required then leave VREG_IN_HV unconnected or tied to VREG_OUT_HV.
Bluegiga Technologies Oy
Page 40 of 52
15.4 Low Voltage Linear Regulators
BT111 has three integrated low voltage linear regulators providing the internal supply voltages for RF and
digital circuits of BT111. The input voltage range is between 1.70V and 1.95V.
15.5 Powering Sequence
All the power supplies should be powered at the same time. The order of powering the supplies relative to the
I/O supply, VDD_PADS to VDD_HOST, is not important. If the I/O supply is powered before VDD_DIG, all
digital I/Os are weak pull-downs irrespective of the reset state.
15.6 Reset
The reset function is internally tied to the VREG_EN_RST# pin. BT111 is reset from several sources:
VREG_EN_RST# pin
Power-on reset
Via a software-configured watchdog timer
The VREG_EN_RST# pin is an active low reset. Assert the reset signal for a period >5ms to ensure a full
reset.
Important Note:
Bluegiga does not recommend assertions of the reset of <5ms on the VREG_EN_RST# pin, as any glitches
on this line can affect I/O integrity without triggering a reset.
A warm reset function is also available under software control. After a warm reset the RAM data remains
available.
BT111 is supplied with an on-chip Bluetooth v4.0 specification qualified HCI Controller stack firmware. It also
has an EEPROM chip, which allows modifications of many configuration parameters (PS-keys) of the
Bluetooth chip.
When the BT111 development kit is plugged into your PC, it will show up as a generic Bluetooth Controller,
and the Bluetooth Host stack installed on your PC will take control of it.
To access BT111’s configuration parameters, which are stored on its EEPROM chip, you need the included
SPI connector and PSTool software from the CSR BlueSuite tool collection. BlueSuite is available on the
Bluegiga Techforum at http://techforum.bluegiga.com
PSTool contains a full list of the parameters that are possible to modify, along with their descriptions. Some
common parameter keys are:
- (0x0108) PSKEY_DEVICE_NAME – Bluetooth name of the device
- (0x02be) PSKEY_USB_VENDOR_ID – USB Vendor ID, if you have your own VID and wish to use it
(Default is 0a12 which is CSR’s VID)
- (0x02bf) PSKEY_USB_PRODUCT_ID – USB Product ID (Default is 0)
.

18 Soldering Recommendations
BT111 is compatible with a industrial standard reflow profile for Pb-free solders. The reflow profile used is
dependent on the thermal mass of the entire populated PCB, heat transfer efficiency of the oven and
particular type of solder paste used. Consult the datasheet of particular solder paste for profile configurations.
Bluegiga Technologies will give following recommendations for soldering the module to ensure the reliable
solder joint and operation of the module after soldering. Since the profile used is process and layout
dependent, the optimal profile should be studied case by case. Thus the following recommendation should be
taken into account as a starting point.
Refer to technical documentations of particular solder paste for profile configurations
Avoid using more than one flow.
Reliability of the solder joint and self-alignment of the component are dependent on the solder
volume. Minimum of 150m stencil thickness is recommended.
Aperture size of the stencil should be 1:1 with the pad size.
A low residue, “no clean” solder paste should be used due to low mounted height of the
component.
