1 SCOPE
This document describes key hardware aspects of the Laird BT800 Bluetooth HCI/HID module. This
document is intended to assist device manufacturers and related parties with the integration of this
module into their host devices. Data in this document are drawn from a number of sources including
data sheets for the CSR CSR8510.
Because the BT800 is currently in development stage, this document is preliminary and the information
in this document is subject to change. Please contact Laird Technologies or visit the Laird website at
www.Lairdtech.com to obtain the most recent version of this document.
2 OPERATIONAL DESCRIPTION
The BT800 series of USB HCI devices are designed to meet the needs of OEMs adding robust Bluetooth
connectivity and using embedded Bluetooth stacks within these products.
Leveraging the market-leading CSR 8510 chipset, the BT800 series provides exceptionally low power
consumption with outstanding range. Supporting the latest Bluetooth v4.0 Specification with EDR
(Enhanced Data Rate), the Laird BT800 series enables OEMs to accelerate their development time for
leveraging either Classic Bluetooth or Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) into their operating system based
devices.
With a tiny footprint as small as 8.5 x 13 mm, yet output power at 8 dBm, these modules are ideal for
applications where designers need high performance in minimal size. For maximum flexibility in systems
integration, the modules are designed to support a full speed USB interface plus GPIO and additionally
I2S and PCM audio interfaces.
These modules present an HCI interface and have native support for Windows and Linux Bluetooth
software stacks. All BT800 series devices are fully qualified as Bluetooth Controller Subsystem products.
This also allows designers to integrate their existing pre-approved Bluetooth Host and Profile subsystem
stacks to gain a Bluetooth END product approval for their products.
The BT800 series is engineered to provide excellent RF performance with integrated antenna and
additional band pass filters. It further reduces regulatory and testing requirements for OEMs and ensures
a hassle free development cycle. As an additional benefit of the BT8000 series, Laird has implemented
CSR’s HID (Human Interface Device) Proxy Mode enabling out of the box HID connectivity for pointing
devices and / or keyboard functionality, requiring zero host device software or configuration.
A fully featured, low-cost developer’s kit is available for prototyping, debug and integration testing of
the BT800 series modules and further reduces risk and time in development cycles.

Figure 4: Long Frame Sync (Shown with 8-bit Companded Sample)
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
BT800 is configured as PCM master, generating PCM_SYNC and PCM_CLK, then PCM_SYNC is 8 bits long.
When BT800 is configured as PCM Slave, PCM_SYNC is from 1 cycle PCM_CLK to half the PCM_SYNC
rate.
BT800 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.

PCM_CLK and PCM_SYNC Generation
9.10
BT800 has 2 methods of generating PCM_CLK and PCM_SYNC in master mode:
Generating these signals by DDS from BT800internal 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, which 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.
Equation 9.1 describes PCM_CLK frequency when generated from the internal 48MHz clock:
Equation 9.1: PCM_CLK Frequency Generated Using the Internal 48MHz Clock
Set the frequency of PCM_SYNC relative to PCM_CLK using Equation 9.2:
Equation 9.2: 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 SKEY_PCM_LOW_JITTER_CONFIG to
0x08080177.
PCM Configuration 9.11
Configure the PCM by using PSKEY_PCM_CONFIG32 and PSKEY_PCM_LOW_JITTER_CONFIG, see your
PSKey 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.
Digital Audio Interface (I²S) 9.12
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 11 lists these alternative functions. Fig.13 shows the timing diagram.

10 POWER CONTROL AND REGULATION
See the Example Application Schematic for the regulator configuration. BT800 contains 5 regulators:
USB linear regulator, to generate the 3.3 V for the USB interface and the input to the high-voltage
linear regulator.
High-voltage linear regulator, to generate the main 1.8V from the USB linear regulator or an
external 3.3V.
This regulator then feeds the 3 low-voltage regulators:
Low-voltage VDD_DIG linear regulator, a programmable low-voltage regulator to supply a 0.90V
to1.25V digital supply, VDD_DIG.
Low-voltage VDD_ANA linear regulator, to supply the radio supply, VDD_RADIO.
Low-voltage VDD_AUX linear regulator, to supply the auxiliary supply, VDD_AUX.
USB Linear Regulator 10.1
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, of which 50mA is available for external use, for
example EEPROM/LED. Externally decouple the output of this regulator using a low ESR MLC capacitor
to the VREG_IN_HV pin. The regulator operates correctly with an output capacitor of 1µF to 4.7µF
(±20%).
This regulator is enabled by default. If the USB linear regulator is not required, leave its input
(VREG_IN_USB) unconnected.
High-voltage Linear Regulator
10.2
The integrated high-voltage linear regulator is available to power the main 1.8 V supply rail. The input
voltage range is between 2.3 V and 4.8 V. The maximum current from this regulator is 100 mA. Externally
decouple the output of this regulator using a low ESR MLC capacitor of a minimum 1.5 µF to the
VREG_OUT_HV pin. Take VREG_EN_RST# high to enable this regulator. If this regulator is not required then
leave VREG_IN_HV unconnected or tied to VREG_OUT_HV.

CONN-GUIDE-BT800_v0_2
Low-voltage VDD_DIG Linear Regulator
10.3
The integrated low-voltage VDD_DIG linear regulator is available to power a 0.90 V to 1.25 V supply rail
which includes the digital circuits on CSR8510 WLCSP. The input voltage range is between 1.70 V and
1.95 V.
Externally decouple the output of this regulator using a low ESR MLC capacitor of a minimum 1.5µF to
the VDD_DIG pin. Software enables and controls the output voltage.
Low-voltage VDD_RADIO Linear Regulator 10.4
The integrated low-voltage VDD_RADIO linear regulator is available to power a 1.35 V analogue supply
rail which includes the radio circuits on CSR8510 WLCSP. The input voltage range is between 1.70 V and
1.95 V. Externally decouple the output of this regulator using a low ESR MLC capacitor of a minimum 1.5
µF to the VDD_RADIO pin. Software enables and controls the output voltage. The regulator is disabled
when BT800is in deep sleep or reset.
Low-voltage VDD_AUX Linear Regulator 10.5
The integrated low-voltage VDD_AUX linear regulator is available to power a 1.35V auxiliary supply rail
which includes the VDD_AUX supply on CSR8510 WLCSP. The input voltage range is between 1.70V and
1.95V.
Externally decouple the output of this regulator using a low ESR MLC capacitor of a minimum 470nF to
the VDD_AUX pin. Take VREG_EN_RST# high to enable this regulator. Software controls the output
voltage.
Voltage Regulator Enable and Reset 10.6
A single pin VREG_EN_RST# controls both the regulator enables and the digital reset function. All the
regulators are enabled, except the USB linear regulator, by taking the VREG_EN_RST# pin above 1V.
Software also controls the regulators. The VREG_EN_RST# pin is connected internally to the reset
function and is powered from VDD_HOST, so do not apply voltages above VDD_HOST to the
VREG_EN_RST# pin. The REG_EN_RST# pin is pulled down internally before the software starts. The
VREG_EN_RST# pin is an active low reset. Assert the reset signal for a period >5ms to ensure a full reset.
Note: The regulator enables are released as soon as VREG_EN_RST# is low, so the regulators shut
down. Therefore do not take VREG_EN_RST# low for less than 5ms, as a full reset is not
guaranteed.
Other reset sources are:
Power-on reset
Via a software-configured watchdog timer
A warm reset function is also available under software control. After a warm reset the RAM
data remains available.
Power Sequencing 10.7
CSR recommends that the power supplies are all 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.

13 IMPLEMENTATION NOTE
PCB Layout on Host PCB 13.1
Checklist (for PCB):
MUST locate BT800/BT810 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 BT800 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 18: Recommend Antenna keep-out area (in White) used on the BT800
13.1.1 Antenna keep-out and Proximity to Metal or Plastic
Checklist (for metal /plastic enclosure):
Minimum safe distance for metals without seriously compromising the antenna (tuning) is 40mm
top/bottom and 30mm left or right.
Metal close to the BT800 chip monopole antenna (bottom, top, left, right, any direction) will have
degradation on the antenna performance. How much; that is entirely system dependent which
means some testing by customer required (in their host application).
Anything metal closer than 20mm will start 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).

Documentation Requirements 15.1
In order to ensure regulatory compliance, when integrating the BT800 into a host device, it is necessary
to meet the documentation requirements set forth by the applicable regulatory agencies. The following
sections (FCC, Industry Canada, and European Union) outline the information that may be included in
the user’s guide and external labels for the host devices into which the BT800 is integrated.
FCC
Note: You must place “Contains FCC ID: SQGBT800” on the host product in such a location that it
can be seen by an operator at the time of purchase.
User’s Guide Requirements
The BT800 complies with FCC Part 15 Rules for a Modular Approval. To leverage Laird’s grant, the
conditions below must be met for the host device into which the BT800 is integrated:
The transmitter module is not co-located with any other transmitter or antenna that is capable 1.
of simultaneous operation.
As long as the conditions above are met, further transmitter testing is typically not required. However,
the OEM integrator is still responsible for testing its end-product for any additional compliance
requirements required with this module installed, such as (but not limited to) digital device emissions
and PC peripheral requirements.
IMPORTANT!
In the event that the three conditions above cannot be met (for example certain device
configurations or co-location with another transmitter), then the FCC authorization is no
longer considered valid and the FCC ID 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) and obtaining a separate FCC authorization.
When using Laird’s FCC grant for the BT800, the integrator must include specific information
in the user’s guide for the device into which the BT800 is integrated. The integrator must not
provide information to the end user regarding how to install or remove this RF module in the
user’s manual of the device into which the BT800 is integrated. The following FCC
statements must be added in there entirety and without modification into a prominent
