2-4. BT/FM Host Interface
The AW-NH931 is the optimal solution for any voice or data application that requires the Bluetooth SIG
standard Host Controller Interface (HCI) using a high-speed UART. The FM subsystem and the
Bluetooth subsystem share the same high-speed UART
2-4-1. UART Interface
The UART physical interface is a standard, 4-wire interface (RX, TX, RTS, CTS) with adjustable baud
rates from 9600 bps to 4.0 Mbps. The interface defaults to a baud rate of 115.2 Kbps coming out of reset.
The desired high-speed baud rate may be selected via a vendor-specific UART HCI command. The AWNH931 has a 480-byte receive FIFO and a 480-byte transmits FIFO to support EDR. The interface
supports the Bluetooth 2.1 UART HCI (H4) specification. The default baud rate for H4 is 115.2 k baud.
In order to support both high and low baud rates efficiently, the UART clock can be selected as either 24
or 48 MHz. Generally, the higher speed clock is needed for baud rates over 3 M baud, however a lower
speed clock may be used to achieve a more accurate baud rate under 3 M baud.
The legacy method of programming the high-speed baud rate of the AW-NH931 UART using DHBR and
DLBR values is also supported for backward compatibility with previous-generation Bluetooth devices.
Normally, the UART baud rate is set by a configuration record downloaded after reset, or by automatic
baud rate detection and the host does not need to adjust the baud rate. Support for changing the baud
rate during normal HCI UART operation is included through a vendor-specific command that allows the
host to adjust the contents of the baud rate registers.
The AW-NH931 UART operates correctly with the host UART, provided the combined baud rate error of
the two devices is within ±5%

2-4-2. PCM Interface
The PCM Interface on the AW-NH931 can connect to linear PCM Codec devices in master or slave
mode. In master mode, AW-NH931 generates the BT_PCM_CLK and BT_PCM_SYNC signals, and in
slave mode, these signals are provided by another master on the PCM interface and are inputs to the
AW-NH931. The AW-NH931 supports up to three SCO or eSCO channels through the PCM Interface
and each channel can be independently mapped to any of the available slots in a frame. The
configuration of the PCM interface may be adjusted by the host through the use of Vendor Specific HCI
Commands.

2-5. SDIO Timing
The AW-NH931 has an internal power-on reset (POR) circuit. The device will be held in reset for a
maximum of 110 ms after VDDC and VDDIO have both passed the 0.6V threshold. Wait at least 110 ms
after VDD_CORE and VDDIO are available before initiating SDIO accesses. The external reset signals
are logically ORed with this POR. So if either the internal POR or one of the external resets is asserted,
the device will be in reset.

2-6. LPO Clock (RTC_CLK)
2-7. Power-On Sequence
The AW-NH931 has four signals that allow the host to control power consumption by enabling or
disabling the Bluetooth, WLAN and internal regulator blocks. These signals are described below.
Additionally, diagrams are provided to indicate proper sequencing of the signals for carious operating
states. The timing value indicated are minimum required values: longer delays are also acceptable.
Note: The WL_SHUTDOWN_N and BT_SHUTDOWN_N are ORed in the AW-NH931. The diagrams
show both signals going high at the same time (as would be the case if both SHUTDOWN signals were
controlled by a single host GPIO). If two independent host GPIOs are used (on for WL_SHUTDOWN_N
and one for BT_SHUTDOWN_N), then only one of two signals needs to be high to enable the AWNH931 regulators.
Also note that the reset requirements for the Bluetooth core are also applicable for the FM core. In other
words, if FM is to be used, then the Bluetooth core must be enabled.
WL_SHUTDOWN_N: Used by the PMU (along with BT_SHUTDOWN_N) to decide whether to power
down the internal AW-NH931 regulators. If both the BT_SHUTDOWN_N and WL_SHUTDOWN_N pins
are low, the regulators will be disabled.
BT_SHUTDOWN_N: Used by the PMU (along with WL_SHUTDOWN_N) to decide whether to power
down the internal AW-NH931 regulators. If both the BT_SHUTDOWN_N and WL_SHUTDOWN_N pins
are low, the regulators will be disabled.
