In EMMY-W161, the band pass filter (2.4 GHz BPF) is a BAW filter that enables co-existence with

LTE. For the EMMY-W165 variant, the band pass filter provides no co-existence protection against a co-located LTE transmitter.

Figure 2: EMMY-W163 block diagram - Dual-antenna variant

In EMMY-W163, the bandpass filters (2.4 GHz BPF) are ceramic bandpass filters. An LTE co-existence variant

is not available in the dual-antenna configuration.

1.5 Product description

The EMMY-W161 is recommended for applications that have co-located Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and LTE antennas

and require co-existence of these wireless technologies. This module provides a dedicated BAW bandpass filter instead of the ceramic bandpass filter. This filter rejects the adjacent LTE bands B40, B7, B41 and B38. The integrated BAW filter is available only for the single-antenna configuration (EMMY-W161). The module pinout, operating conditions, and electrical characteristics are identical for all product variants. Differences in the RF parameters are explained in the Radio specifications section.

1.7 Additional reserved MAC addresses

The EMMY-W1 module series has four unique consecutive MAC addresses reserved for each module, from which the first two addresses are already stored in the configuration during production. The first address is used for the Bluetooth communication while the second address is configured for Wi-Fi communication. The Data Matrix Code on the label includes the Bluetooth MAC address (see section 9). The remaining two MAC addresses are not used in the manufacturing configuration, but are reserved for usage with the module.

2.1 Operation mode configuration

EMMY-W1 series module uses the GPIO_3 and GPIO_2 pins as host interface configuration input to set the desired operation mode following a reset. The definitions of these pins are changed to their usual functions after reset. When you need to configure the pins for a certain module operation mode, you need to provide a 100 kΩ pull down resistor to the ground. No external circuitry is required to set a configuration pin to high logical level.

External reset is not needed for proper operation due to internal power-up reset logic though it can be used by the host controller through the PDn pin (active low) in case of an abnormal module behavior.

After reset, GPIO_3 and GPIO_2 pins can be used as open drain outputs (depending on firmware/driver version) for Bluetooth and Wi-Fi activity LED indicators, but simultaneous usage of an LED connected to 3.3 V power line and a pull-down resistor is not allowed (LED acts as a strong pull-up circuitry). Do not connect LED if you need the pull-down resistors.

Depending on the firmware or driver used, you can use either one or both host interface operation modes:

Table 3: Module configuration

2.2 SDIO interface

EMMY-W1 series modules support an SDIO device interface that conforms to the industry standard SDIO 3.0 Full-Speed specification (4-bit SDIO up to 208 MHz) and allows a host controller using the SDIO bus protocol to access the Wi-Fi and Bluetooth functions. The interface supports 4-bit SDIO transfer mode at the full clock range of 0 to 208 MHz.

High input impedance pin for minimizing shutdown current consumption. The pin shall be driven by the host controller or/and c onnected

via 51 kΩ (or less) pull-up resistor to the 3.3 V supply rail.

Possible to use as an LED output depending on the firmware and driver version. In this case, the module pin acts as an open drain output and the whole LED circuitry must be supplied from 3.3 V power line. A LED current limiting resistor should be used; maximum sink current to the ground is 10 mA. These pins can also be used for host interface configuration. See Operation mode configuration section.

Pin protected from the static electricity by internal DC feed to the ground.

7 Qualification and approvals

Table 31 provides an overview of the available radio type approvals for each EMMY-W1 product variant.

Table 31: Overview of certifications for EMMY-W1 module series

7.1 Approvals

7.1.1 European Union regulatory compliance

Information about regulatory compliance of the European Union for EMMY-W1 modules is available in the EMMY-W1 Declaration of Conformity [4].

7.1.1.1 Equipment classes

A multi-radio module is classified as class-1 or class-2 radio equipment depending on the frequency band in which it can operate. This equipment class is inherited by the end-product that integrates the module, thus it must be marked accordingly.

Class-1 radio equipment can be placed on the market and put into service without restrictions. (Article 1 of Commission Decision 2000/299/EC of April 6 2000)

This multi-radio module is defined as class-1 radio equipment when it is restricted to operate in the following frequency bands:

 Bluetooth , ISM band 2400 – 2483.5 MHz  WLAN, ISM band 2400 – 2483.5 MHz  WLAN, U-NII band-2e 5470 – 5725 MHz, exludes 5600-5650 GHz

Class-2 radio equipment includes restrictions applied by Member States as indicated in Article 1(2) of the Commission Decision. This class uses the “Alert Sign” as an equipment class identifier.

Figure 13: Alert sign to identify equipment Class-2

See Table 31 for information on what certifications are completed for each of the EMMY-W1 module versions.

Channels 118, 120, 122, 124, 126 and 128 have to be excluded for the EMMY-W1 series modules. The firmware was not approved to operate in frequencies between 5.600 – 5.650 GHz due to lack of CCA time of 10 min. This might change in future firmware releases.

8.2 Shipment, storage and handling

For more information regarding shipment, storage and handling see the u-blox Package Information Guide [1].

8.2.1 Moisture sensitivity levels

The EMMY-W1 series modules are rated at moisture sensitivity level 3. See moisture sensitive warning label on each shipping bag for detailed information. After opening the dry pack, modules must be mounted within 168 hours in factory conditions of maximum 30°C/60%RH or must be stored at less than 10%RH. Modules require baking if the humidity indicator card shows more than 10% when read at 23±5°C or if the conditions mentioned above are not met. Please refer to J-STD-033B standard for bake procedure.

8.2.2 Mounting process and soldering recommendations

The EMMY-W1 series module is a surface mount module supplied on a 4-layer FR4-type PCB with gold plated connection pins and produced in a lead-free process with a lead-free soldering paste. The wrap page of the PCB is max. 0,75% according to IPC-A-610E. The thickness of solder resist on the host PCB top side and the EMMY-W1 bottom side must be considered for the soldering process.

This module is compatible with industrial reflow profile for RoHS/Pb-free solders, Sn96.5/Ag3.0/Cu0.5 solder is a right choice. Use of "No Clean" soldering paste is strongly recommended, cleaning the populated modules is strongly discouraged - residuals under the module cannot be easily removed with any cleaning process. Cleaning with water can lead to capillary effects where water is absorbed into the gap between the host board and module. The combination of soldering flux residuals and encapsulated water could lead to short circuits between neighboring pins.

Only a single reflow soldering process is permitted for host boards with the EMMY-W1 series modules. 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. Since the profile used is process and layout dependent, the optimum profile should be studied case by case. Recommendations below should be taken as a starting point guide. In case of basic information necessity, please refer to J-STD-020C standard. }

8.2.3 ESD handling precautions

EMMY-W1 series modules are Electrostatic Sensitive Devices (ESD). Observe precautions for

handling! Failure to observe these precautions can result in severe damage to the Wi-Fi receiver!

Wi-Fi transceivers are Electrostatic Sensitive Devices (ESD) and require special precautions when handling. Particular care must be exercised when handling patch antennas, due to the risk of electrostatic charges. In addition to standard ESD safety practices, the following measures should be taken into account whenever handling the receiver:

UBX-15011785 - R05 Product handling

Page 38 of 47

EMMY-W1 series - Data Sheet

 When handling the RF pin, do not come into

contact with any charged capacitors and be careful when contacting materials that can develop charges (e.g. patch antenna ~10 pF, coax cable ~50-80 pF/m, soldering iron, …)

 To prevent electrostatic discharge through the RF

input, do not touch any exposed antenna area. If there is any risk that such exposed antenna area is touched in non ESD protected work area, implement proper ESD protection measures in the design.

 When soldering RF connectors and patch

antennas to the receiver’s RF pin, make sure to

use an ESD safe soldering iron (tip).
