Overview
The AMN12100 WHDI Video Display Unit (VDU) is designed to be at the receiver end of the WHDI downstream.
The AMN12100 receives wireless downstream transmission, demodulates it and regenerates the video, audio
and control content transmitted by the AMN11100 WHDI transmitter. The receiver works at the 5GHz unlicensed
band. Figure 1 displays a block diagram of the AMN12100. It has an MIMO design of five wireless input channels,
and one slow rate output wireless channel, which generates an upstream channel for data content transmissions.
The outputs from the VDU are digital uncompressed video, digital audio and control, all via the WHDI connector.
The MiniMAC uC is responsible for the control and the management.

Overview
The main building blocks of the AMN12100 are as follows:
AMN2210 WHDI Baseband Transmitter, as briefly described on page 4
LPC2103 Mini-MAC µController, as briefly described on page 4
MAX2828 5GHz (802.11a) Transceiver, as briefly described on page 5
Power Amplifier (PA), as briefly described on page 5
Board Connector (WHDITM Connector), as described on page 5
E2PROM, as described on page 5
40MHz Clock Gen, as described on page 5
2.1 AMN2210 WHDI Baseband Receiver
The AMN2210 WHDITM baseband receiver chip is the heart of the AMN12100 WHDI Receiver module. The
AMN2210 interfaces the A/V source through the WHDI connector, and is controlled on board by the MiniMAC uC.
Figure 2: WHDI Baseband Receiver Chipset
The AMN2210 is based on MIMO technology receiving up to five input channels. Five analog-to-digital converters
and one digital-to-analog converter are embedded within the chip.
The AMN2210 internal PLL accepts an input clock frequency of 40MHz. The input frequency is multiplied and
then used as an internal system clock.
2.2 LPC2103 Mini-MAC µController
The LPC2103 microcontroller is based on a 16-bit/32-bit ARM7TDMI-S CPU, with embedded 32kB high-speed
memory. It is used as an external microcontroller for implementing the MAC layer of the WHDI link.
The LPC2103 internal PLL accepts an input clock frequency of 20MHz and generates an internal 60MHz system
clock..

Overview
2.3 MAX2828 5GHz (802.11a) Transceiver
The VDU has five MAX2828 chips embedded in it. The MAX2828 is a single-chip, RF transceiver IC designed
specifically for single-band 4.9GHz to 5.875GHz, OFDM, 802.11 WLAN applications. It includes all the circuitry
necessary to implement the RF transceiver function, providing a fully integrated receive path, transmit path, VCO,
frequency synthesizer and baseband/control interface. Only the PA, RF switches, RF bandpass filters (BPF), RF
BALUNs and a small number of passive components are required to form the complete RF front-end solution.
AMIMON's WHDITM technology uses the low cost and high availability of the 802.11a/n RF to allow low-cost RF
for the video modem. Future generations of the WHDI modem will use an AMIMON-designed, cost-efficient,
single-chip, integrated RFIC for multiple transmits on the transmitter side and a single-chip integrated RFIC for
multiple receivers on the receiver side.
2.4 Power Amplifier (PA)
In order to extend the operating range for the AMN12100 upstream, the RF transmitter uses a power amplifier.
The power amplifier has an output power detector for TPC purposes. Amimon has implemented Anadigics
AWL6951 PA on the AMN12100.
2.5 Board Connector (WHDITM Connector)
For information regarding the connector specification and pin-outs see section 4.1, AMN12100 Board Connector
(WHDI Connector), page 15.
2.6 E2PROM
The E2PROM is currently a system option, enabling mating and authentication in a multipoint design
environment.
2.7 40MHz Clock Gen
An on-board 40MHz TCXO is connected to the MAX2828 chipsets and the AMN2210 baseband. The clock is
then divided by two by the AMN2210 and supplied to the LPC2103 uC.

3.1 Video Data Input and Conversions
Figure 3: Video Data Receiver Path
Figure 3 shows the basic control over the video data output. Essentially the receiver mirrors the video format of
the transmitter end and so most of the configurations are done on the transmitter end.
The video output data is uncompressed digital video up to 3*10 bits in width. The video interface provides a direct
connection to the inputs of a display device, an HDMI transmitter, or any other video interface device.
Color Space Converter
The receiver can output either RGB or YCbCr color space. For more details, you may refer to the MAC registers
in the programmer's reference guide.
Color Range Limiter
The YCbCr data range can be limited to 16-235.

3.2 Audio Data Capture
AMN12100 audio processing logic block receives the audio stream from the WHDI wireless link and regenerates
the appropriate clock and data. If the transmitter end was configured to SPDIF audio interface, then the audio is
output on the receiver side through the SPDIF. The same is true for the I2S interface.
No constraints exist for a coherent video and audio clock, where coherent means that the audio and the video
clock must have been created from the same clock source. The AMN12100 supports two-channel audio-sampling
frequencies of up to 48KHz, 32 bits per sample.
Version 1.0
AMIMON Confidential 9
Interfaces
3.2.1 I2S Bus Specification
The AMN12100 supports a standardized communication structure inter-IC sound (I2S) bus. As shown in Figure 5,
the bus has three lines: continuous serial clock (SCK), word select (WS) and serial data (SD). In addition, it has a
MCLK signal which is synchronized to and a multiple of the WS. The external device generating SCK and WS is
the AMN12100.
Figure 5: I2S Simple System Configurations and Basic Interface Timing
The AMN12100 outputs exactly 32 bits for each channel (left and right). By default, the serial data is valid on the
leading (LOW to HIGH) edge of the clock signal, but it can also be configured to be valid on the edge (HIGH to
LOW) of the clock signal. The WS is also valid by default on the leading edge of the clock signal. The WS line
changes one clock period before the first bit of the transmitted channel.
The AMN12100 mirrors the transmitter's end audio inputs and so the MSB and the LSB position are defined at
the audio source at the transmitter side. In case the audio samples in the transmitter are less than 32 bits long,
they are padded with zeroes to generate receiver output samples of 32 bits.
3.2.1.1 MUTE
The AMN12100 has an error detection mechanism. It outputs a high MUTE signal in case of bad audio reception
(bad frames).

3.3 Management Buses and Connectors
3.3.1 Two-Wire Serial Bus Interface
The WHDI application observes and controls the AMN12100 via a Two-Wire interface and an interrupt line
connecting the application microcontroller and the AMN12100 MiniMAC microcontroller. The protocol of the Two-
Wire-bus for the WHDI application / MiniMAC interface is described in the following sections.
The Two-Wire bus is bidirectional and, as its name implies, it has only two wires: a Serial Clock Line (SCL) and a
Serial Data Line (SDA). The Two-Wire architecture includes master and slave devices. The master initiates a
data transfer on the bus and generates the clock signal. The AMN12100 MiniMAC operates as a slave device.
Each slave device is recognized by a unique address and can operate as either a receive-only device or a
transmitter with the ability to both receive and send information.

Figure 7: Two-Wire / Application-MiniMAC connection
On top of the Two-Wire low level operation described in sections 3.3.1.2 and 3.3.1.3, the WHDI Application and
the MiniMAC microcontrollers communicate with each other in a defined protocol, which avoids all possibilities of
confusion. The protocol defines command oriented transactions between the application and the WHDI MiniMAC.
Each Two-Wire command has a predefined data byte length and is defined to be exactly one Two-Wire
transaction long.
3.3.1.1 Device Addresses
The MiniMAC device address may be altered by two jumpers on VDU/VSU board.
Table 5: Device Addresses
Device Address
MiniMAC uC 0x62 or 0x82 or 0x90 or 0x70
(Board configuration dependant)
Alternatively, the device address can be set in the MAC SW in advance.
3.3.1.2 MiniMAC uC Write Operation
Figure 8 demonstrates a write transaction which sends 2 data bytes and which ends with the master stop bit.
Each write transaction sends one or more data bytes to the MiniMAC, beginning at an explicit 2 bytes long
address. Multiple data bytes may be written as the MiniMAC stores the received register data until the master
sends a stop bit. The MiniMAC updates the register value upon a successful termination of a write transaction.

3.3.1.3 MiniMAC uC Read Operation
This operation reads from a specific 2- byte address. The read transaction is divided into two parts. In the first
part, the Two-Wire master sends a write command to the slave containing only the required start address. (The
address is always 2 bytes long.) In the second part, multiple bytes may be read from consecutive addresses. The
MiniMAC puts the appropriate data on the Two-Wire bus and the internal address is automatically incremented. A
stop bit is sent by the master only when the entire transaction has been completed.

3.3.1.4 WHDI Application / MiniMAC Protocol
The WHDI programmer’s reference defines the MiniMAC registers data structure. Each register has an
associated group id and index offset address.
The group id and the index offset are each 1 byte long. Together they define a register address that is 2 bytes
long.
Each register has an attributed length (in byte units). All registers within the same group have the same length.
A Two-Wire transaction to a specific register includes 2 bytes of register address and the register data bytes. The
register is written in one transaction. If the transaction terminates ahead of time or is too long, the MiniMAC
issues an error interrupt and does not store the received values. The register is read in one transaction, as
described in section 3.3.1.3. If the read transaction finishes ahead of time, the MiniMAC issues an error interrupt.
3.3.2 Interrupts
There is one interrupt connected to the WHDI connector. The interrupt source is the AMN2110 MiniMAC uC. For
details about the interrupt, please refer to the programmer's user guide.

3.4 Reset and Wake-up Timer
The AMN12100 has one hard RESET input pin connected directly to the AMN2110 and through a MicroPower
circuit to the LPC2103 uC, as described in Figure 10. Upon power up, the MicroPower circuit asserts the uC reset
pin for about 150msec. Assertion of the LPC2103 reset starts its internal wake-up timer, causing the internal chip
reset to remain asserted until the external reset is de-asserted, the 20MHz clock runs, a fixed number of clocks
have passed and the on-chip flash controller has completed its initialization.
When the LPC2103 internal reset is removed, the processor begins executing at address 0, which is the reset
vector. At that point, all of the processor and peripheral registers have been initialized to predetermined reset
values. The processor initializes the AMN2110 baseband chipset. After the reset is de-asserted for TBD msec, it
is ready to operate.
The wake-up timer monitors the 20MHz clock in order to check whether it is safe to begin code execution.

Design Guidelines
6.1.2 General Guidelines
Keep traces as short as possible.
Traces should be routed over full solid reference plans.
Sensitive lines like reset and clocks should be routed with special care.
These lines should be routed over full solid power plans (ground or power).
Traces should be routed at least 2 times the trace width away from other lines in the same routing layer.
Place a series resistor ~30 ohm at the clock source.
Keep digital signals away from the analog side.
6.1.3 WHDI Lines
Place series resistors on all output lines (near the outputs pins).
Series resistors on input lines are unnecessary. (The series resistors should be placed on the interface
board.)
6.1.4 Power and Ground
Use a solid ground plan.
Ground plans separation is unnecessary.
Place decoupling capacitors near power pins. (Refer to the schematics and BOM for recommended values.)
Analog power pins should be filtered with ferrite beads. (Refer to the schematics and BOM for recommended
values.)

6.2 RF Design Recommendation
6.2.1 RF Components
All passive components must have compatible performance with components used in the Amimon reference
design.
6.2.2 Power Management
The power management is divided such that each channel has an independent filtered power supply of 2.85Vdc.
Figure 1 shows the power scheme of the RF section of the receiver.

For the best performance, follow the application guidelines of the chosen devices.
Regarding the MAX2828 transceiver, follow the Application Note AN3630 that can be downloaded from Maxim-ic
website.
6.2.4 Antennas
The design of the antennas and matching is performed individually for each product. Changing board stack-up or
outline of the RF section can impact the system performance and a matching procedure should be performed.
