The BT85x series of USB HCI modules and Adapter leverage the Cypress CYW20704 A2 chipset to provide exceptionally low power consumption with outstanding range for OEMs needing both Classic Bluetooth and Bluetooth Low Energy support. The Bluetooth v5.0 core specification shortens your development time and provides enhanced throughput, security and privacy. 

The BT850 modules are ideal when designers need both performance and minimum size. For maximum flexibility in integration, they support a host USB interface, I[2] S and PCM audio interfaces, GPIO, and Cypress’GCI coexistence (2-wire). The modules provide excellent RF performance and identical footprint options for integrated antenna or an external antenna via a trace pin. 

These modules present a Bluetooth standard HCI interface with native support for Windows, Linux and Android Bluetooth software stacks for operating system backed devices. The BT851 Pluggable USB Adapter simply plugs into any Windows, Android, or Linux device via external USB connection.

The BT850-Sx supports the proprietary Cypress Global Coexistence Interface (GCI) which is a two-wire interface. 

The following key features are associated with the interface: 

- Enhanced coexistence data can be exchanged over GCI_SECI_IN and GCI_SECI_OUT a two-wire interface, one serial input (GCI_SECI_IN), and one serial output (GCI_SECI_OUT). The both pins are controlled by the configuration file that is stored in EEPROM from the host. 

- It supports generic UART communication between WLAN and Bluetooth devices. 

- To conserve power, it is disabled when inactive. 

- It supports automatic resynchronization upon waking from sleep mode. 

- It supports a baud rate of up to 4 Mbps. 

Table 10 shows the two-wire BT coexistence interface assignments. 

## _**Table 10: BDR/EDR/LE receiver sensitivity (Input = 3V3 @ 25**_ ℃ _**)**_ 

|**Coexistence Signal Name**|**Signal Assignment**|
|---|---|
|BT_SECI_IN|GPIO_6|
|BT_SECI_OUT|GPIO_7|



BT85x has a full-speed (12 Mbps) USB interface for communicating with other compatible digital devices. The USB interface on the BT85x acts as a USB peripheral, responding to requests from a master host controller. 

BT85x supports the Universal Serial Bus Specification (USB v2.0 Specification) and USB Battery Charging Specification, available from http://www.usb.org. For more information on how to integrate the USB interface on BT85xd, see Figure 17 located in the following section: USB Dongle Design Example Using BT850. 

The following USB interface features are supported: 

- USB Protocol, revision 2.0, full-speed compliant with LPM support (up to 12 Mbps) 

- Bluetooth HCI 

- Integrated detach resistor 

- USB termination when interface is not in use 

- Internal modules, certification, and non-specification compliant operation 

The BT850-Sx supports two independent PCM interfaces that share the pins with I[2] S interfaces. The PCM interface on the BT850-Sx can connect to linear PCM Codec devices in master or slave mode. In master mode, the BT850-Sx generates the PCM_CLK and PCM_SYNC signals; in slave mode, these signals are provided by another master on the PCM interface and are inputs to the BT850-Sx. 

The configuration of the PCM interface may be adjusted by the host using vendor-specific HCI commands. 

For additional information, refer to the DVK-BT85x-Sx User Guide available from the BT85x product page of the Laird website.

The BT850-Sx supports up to three simultaneous full-duplex SCO or eSCO channels through the PCM interface. These three channels are time-multiplexed onto the single PCM interface by using a time-slotting scheme where the 8 kHz or 16 kHz audio sample interval is divided into as many as 16 slots. The number of slots is dependent on the selected interface rate of 128 kHz, 512 kHz, or 1024 kHz. The corresponding number of slots for these interface rates is 1, 2, 4, 8, and 16, respectively. Transmit and receive PCM data from an SCO channel is always mapped to the same slot. The PCM data output driver tristates its output on unused slots to allow other devices to share the same PCM interface signals. The data output driver tristates its output after the falling edge of the PCM clock during the last bit of the slot. 

## 8.3.2 Frame Synchronization 

The BT850-Sx supports both short- and long-frame synchronization in both master and slave modes. In short-frame synchronization mode, the frame synchronization signals an active-high pulse at the audio frame rate that is a single-bit period in width and is synchronized to the rising edge of the bit clock. The PCM slave looks for a high on the falling edge of the bit clock and expects the first bit of the first slot to start at the next rising edge of the clock. 

Figure 2 and Table 11 shows PCM Timing Diagram and Specifications for the master mode of short-frame.

In long-frame synchronization mode, the frame synchronization signal is again an active-high pulse at the audio frame rate; however, the duration is three bit periods and the pulse starts coincident with the first bit of the first slot.

## 8.3.5 Data Formatting 

The BT850-Sx may be configured to generate and accept several different data formats. For conventional narrowband speech mode, the BT850-Sx uses 13 of the 16 bits in each PCM frame. The location and order of these 13 bits can be configured to support various data formats on the PCM interface. The remaining three bits are ignored on the input and may be filled with 0s, 1s, a sign bit, or a programmed value on the output. The default format is 13-bit 2’s complement data, left justified, and clocked MSB first. 

## 8.3.4 Wideband Speech Support 

When the host encodes Wideband Speech (WBS) packets in transparent mode, the encoded packets are transferred over the PCM bus for an eSCO voice connection. In this mode, the PCM bus is typically configured in master mode for a 4-kHz sync rate with 16-bit samples, resulting in a 64 Kbps bit rate. The BT850-Sx also supports slave transparent mode using a proprietary rate-matching scheme. In SBC-code mode, linear 16-bit data at 16 kHz (256 Kbps rate) is transferred over the PCM bus. 

## 8.3.5 Multiplexed Bluetooth Over PCM 

Bluetooth supports multiple audio streams within the Bluetooth channel and both 16 kHz and 8 kHz streams can be multiplexed. This mode of operation is only supported when the Bluetooth host is the master. Figure 6 shows the operation of the multiplexed transport with three simultaneous SCO connections. To accommodate additional SCO channels, the transport clock speed is increased. To change between modes of operation, the transport must be halted and restarted in the new configuration. 

_**Figure 6: Functional multiples data diagram**_ 

## 8.3.6 Burst PCM Mode 

In this mode of operation, the PCM bus runs at a significantly higher rate of operation to allow the host to duty cycle its operation and save current. In this mode of operation, the PCM bus can operate at a rate of up to 24 MHz. This mode of operation is initiated with an HCI command from the host.

The BT850-Sx supports two independent I[2] S digital audio ports. The I[2] S interface supports both master and slave modes. The I[2] S signals are: 

- I[2] S clock: I[2] S SCK 

- I[2] S Word Select: I[2] S WS 

- I[2] S Data Out: I[2] S SDO 

- I[2] S Data In: I[2] S SDI 

I[2] S SCK and I[2] S WS become outputs in master mode and inputs in slave mode, while I[2] S SDO always stays as an output. The channel word length is 16 bits and the data is justified so that the MSB of the left-channel data is aligned with the MSB of the I[2] S bus, per the I[2] S specification. The MSB of each data word is transmitted one bit clock cycle after the I[2] S WS transition, synchronous with the falling edge of bit clock. Left-channel data is transmitted when I[2] S WS is low, and right-channel data is transmitted when I[2] S WS is high. Data bits sent by the BT850 are synchronized with the falling edge of I2S_SCK and should be sampled by the receiver on the rising edge of I2S_SSCK. 

The clock rate in master mode is either of the following: 

- 48 kHz x 32 bits per frame = 1.536 MHz 

- 48 kHz x 50 bits per frame = 2.400 MHz 

The master clock is generated from the input reference clock using a N/M clock divider. 

In the slave mode, any clock rate is supported to a maximum of 3.072 MHz. 

Timing values specified in Table 17 are relative to high and low threshold levels.

A power on reset (POR) timing requirement is shown in Figure 11. 

## _**Figure 11: Power on reset (POR) timing**_ 

When the system requires a reset, you must hold the rest line in low state for longer than 3.96 milliseconds to complete the reset cycle. 

## **WARNING** 

An improper low state on the reset line (such as a voltage glitch) causes a system error due to a crash on the EEPROM content. 

A bypass cap such as 0.1uF placed on the reset line overcomes the issue caused by the glitch.

Checklist (for PCB): 

- **MUST** locate the BT850 module close to the edge of PCB. 

- Use solid GND plane on inner layer (for best EMC and RF performance). 

- Place GND vias close to module GND pads as possible 

- Route traces to avoid noise being picked up on VCC supply. 

- Antenna Keep-out area: 

   - Ensure there is no copper in the antenna keep-out area on any layers of the host PCB. 

   - 

   - Keep all mounting hardware and metal clear of the area to allow proper antenna radiation. 

- For best antenna performance, place the BT850 module on the edge of the host PCB, preferably in the corner with the antenna facing the corner. 

- 

A different host PCB thickness dielectric will have small effect on antenna. 

_**Figure 16: Recommend antenna keep-out area (in blue) used on the BT850**_ 

Checklist (for metal/plastic enclosure): 

- Minimum safe distance for metals without seriously compromising the antenna (tuning) is 40 mm top/bottom and 30 mm left or right. 

- Metal close to the BT850-SA chip monopole antenna (bottom, top, left, right, any direction) will have degradation on the antenna performance. The amount of degradation is entirely system-dependent which means some testing by customers is required (in their host application). 

- Any metal closer than 20 mm starts to significantly degrade performance (S11, gain, radiation efficiency). 

- It is best that the customer tests the range with mock-up (or actual prototype) of the product to assess effects of enclosure height (and material, whether metal or plastic).

This application note covers the procedure for generating a new Declaration ID for a Subsystem combination on the Bluetooth SIG website. In the instance of subsystems, a member can combine two or more subsystems to create a complete Bluetooth End Product solution. 

Subsystem listings referenced as an example: 

## _**Table 25: Subsystem combinations**_ 

|**Design Name**|**Owner**|**Declaration ID**|**Link to listing on the SIG website**|
|---|---|---|---|
|BT85x – BTv4.2|Laird|D037603|https://www.bluetooth.org/tpg/QLI_viewQDL.cfm?qid=37603|
|BT85x – BTv5|Laird|D043711|https://launchstudio.bluetooth.com/ListingDetails/78666|
|Windows 8<br>(Host Subsystem)|Microsoft<br>Corporation|B012854|https://www.bluetooth.org/tpg/QLI_viewQDL.cfm?qid=12854|



This procedure assumes that the member is simply combining two subsystems to create a new design, without any modification to the existing, qualified subsystems. This is achieved by using the Listing interface on the Bluetooth SIG website. Table 25 shows the basic subsystem combination of a controller and host subsystem. The Controller provides the RF/BB/LM and HCI layers, with the Host providing L2CAP, SDP, GAP, RFCOMM/SPP and any other specific protocols and profiles existing in the Host subsystem listing. The design may also include a Profile Subsystem. 

The controller provides the RF/BB/LM and HCI layers, with the Host providing L2CAP, SDP, GAP, RFCOMM/SPP and any other specific protocols and profiles existing in the Host subsystem listing. The design may also include a Profile Subsystem. 

_**Figure 23: Basic subsystem combination of a controller and host subsystem**_ 

The Qualification Process requires each company to registered as a member of the Bluetooth SIG – http://www.bluetooth.org 

The following link provides a link to the Bluetooth Registration page: https://www.bluetooth.org/login/register/ 

For each Bluetooth Design it is necessary to purchase a Declaration ID. This can be done before starting the new qualification, either through invoicing or credit card payment. The fees for the Declaration ID will depend on your membership status, please refer to the following webpage: 

https://www.bluetooth.org/en-us/test-qualification/qualification-overview/fees 

For a detailed procedure of how to obtain a new Declaration ID for your design, please refer to the following SIG document:
