2.5.2 RF Receiver
The receiver features a near-zero IF architecture that allows the channel filters to be
integrated onto the die. Sufficient out-of-band blocking specification at the LNA input allows the
receiver to be used in close proximity to GSM and WCDMA cellular phone transmitters without
being significantly desensitized.
An ADC digitizes the IF received signal.
Low Noise Amplifier
The LNA operates in differential mode and takes its input from the balanced port of the
integrated balun.
RSSI Analogue to Digital Converter
The ADC samples the RSSI voltage on a packet-by-packet basis and implements a fast AGC.
The front-end LNA gain is changed according to the measured RSSI value, keeping the first mixer
input signal within a limited range. This improves the dynamic range of the receiver, improving
performance in interference-limited environments.
2.5.3 RF Transmitter
IQ Modulator
The transmitter features a direct IQ modulator to minimize frequency drift during a transmit
packet, which results in a controlled modulation index. Digital baseband transmit circuitry
provides the required spectral shaping.
Power Amplifier
The internal PA has a maximum 7.5dBm output power without needing an external RF PA.
2.5.4 Bluetooth Radio Synthesizer
The Bluetooth radio synthesizer is fully integrated onto the die with no requirement for an
external VCO screening, can varactor tuning diodes, LC resonators or loop filter. The synthesizer is
guaranteed to lock in sufficient time across the guaranteed temperature range to meet Bluetooth
v4.0 specification.

4 Physical Interfaces
4.1 UART Interface
BlueSoleil i410e Universal Asynchronous Receiver Transmitter (UART) interface provides a
simple mechanism for communicating with other serial devices using the RS232 standard. The
UART interface of I410E uses voltage levels of 0 to VDD and thus external transceiver IC is
required to meet the voltage level specifications of UART.
In order to communicate with the UART at its maximum data rate using a standard PC, an
accelerated serial port adapter card is required for the PC.

NOTE: The maximum baud rate is 9600bps during deep sleep.
4.2 SPI Interface
The synchronous serial port interface (SPI) is for interfacing with other digital devices. The
SPI port can be used for system debugging. SPI interface is connected using the MOSI, MISO, CSB
and CLK pins. It uses a 16-bit data and 16-bit address programming and debug interface.
Transaction occurs when the internal processor is running or is stopped.
The module operates as a slave and receives commands on MOSI and outputs data on MISO.
Table 11 shows the instruction cycle for a SPI transaction.

BlueSoleil EcoSystem
BlueSoleil EcoSystem
BlueSoleil EcoSystem
BlueSoleil EcoSystem
i410e Datasheet
16 / 28
With the exception of reset, CSB must be held low during the transaction. Data on MOSI is
clocked on the rising edge of the clock line CLK. When reading, i410e replies to the master on
MISO with the data changing on the falling edge of the CLK. The master provides the clock on CLK.
The transaction is terminated by taking CSB high.
The auto increment operation on the i410e cuts down on the overhead of sending a
command word and the address of a register for each read or write, especially when large
amounts of data are to be transferred. The auto increment offers increased data transfer
efficiency on the i410e. To invoke auto increment, CSB is kept low, which auto increments the
address, while providing an extra 16 clock cycles for each extra word written or read.
5 Software Stacks
BlueSoleil i410e is supplied with Bluetooth v4.0 compliant stack firmware, which runs on the
internal RISC microcontroller. The i410e software architecture allows Bluetooth processing and
the application program to be shared in different ways between the internal RISC microcontroller
and an external host processor (if any).

Figure 4 BlueSoleil Stack
As illustrated in Figure 4 above, no host processor is required to run the Bluetooth protocol
stack. All BlueSoleil stack layers, including application software, run on the internal RISC
processor.
The MCU interfaces to BlueSoleil i410e via one or more of the physical interfaces, which are
also shown in the figure 4. The most common interfacing is done via UART interface using the
ASCII commands supported by the BlueSoleil stack. With these ASCII commands the user can
access Bluetooth functionality without paying any attention to the complexity, which lies in the
Bluetooth protocol stack.
The user may write applications code to run on the MCU to control BlueSoleil stack with
ASCII commands and to develop Bluetooth powered applications. Please refer to
BlueSoleil_i410e_Programming_Manual.pdf.

7 Reliability and Environmental Specification
7.1 Temperature test
Put the module in demo board which uses exit power supply, power on the module and
connect to mobile. Then put the demo in the ‐40 space for 1 hour and then move to +85
space within 1minute, after 1 hour move back to ‐40 space within1 minute. This is 1 cycle. The
cycles are 32 times and the units have to pass the testing.
7.2 Vibration Test
The module is being tested without package. The displacement requests 1.5mm and sample
is vibrated in three directions(X,Y,Z).Vibration frequency set as 0.5G , a sweep rate of 0.1
octave/min from 5Hz to 100Hz last for 90 minutes each direction. Vibration frequency set as 1.5G,
a sweep rate of 0.25 octave/min from 100Hz to 500Hz last for 20 minutes each direction.
7.3 Desquamation Test
Use clamp to fix the module, measure the pull of the component in the module, make sure
the module`s soldering is good.
7.4 Drop Test
Free fall the module (condition built in a wrapper which can defend ESD) from 150cm height
to cement ground, each side twice, total twelve times. The appearance will not be damaged and
all functions OK.
7.5 Packaging Information
After unpacking, the module should be stored in environment as follows:
- Temperature: 25 ± 2
- Humidity: <60%
- No acidity, sulfur or chlorine environment
The module must be used in four days after unpacking.

8 Layout and Soldering Considerations
8.1 Soldering Recommendations
BlueSoleil i410e is compatible with industrial standard reflow profile for Pb-free solders. 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. Consult the datasheet of
particular solder paste for profile configurations.
IVT Corporation will give following recommendations for soldering the module to ensure
reliable solder joint and operation of the module after soldering. Since the profile used is process
and layout dependent, the optimum profile should be studied case by case. Thus following
recommendation should be taken as a starting point guide.
8.2 Layout Guidelines
It is strongly recommended to use good layout practices to ensure proper operation of the
module. Placing copper or any metal near antenna deteriorates its operation by having effect on
the matching properties. Metal shield around the antenna will prevent the radiation and thus
metal case should not be used with the module. Use grounding via separated max 3 mm apart at
the edge of grounding areas to prevent RF penetrating inside the PCB and causing an
unintentional resonator. Use GND via all around the PCB edges.
The mother board should have no bare conductors or via in this restricted area, because it is
not covered by stop mask print. Also no copper (planes, traces or via) are allowed in this area,
because of mismatching the on-board antenna.

Figure 7 i410e Restricted Area
Following recommendations helps to avoid EMC problems arising in the design. Note that
each design is unique and the following list do not consider all basic design rules such as avoiding
capacitive coupling between signal lines. Following list is aimed to avoid EMC problems caused by
RF part of the module. Use good consideration to avoid problems arising from digital signals in
the design.
Ensure that signal lines have return paths as short as possible. For example if a signal goes to
an inner layer through a via, always use ground via around it. Locate them tightly and
symmetrically around the signal via. Routing of any sensitive signals should be done in the inner
layers of the PCB. Sensitive traces should have a ground area above and under the line. If this is
not possible, make sure that the return path is short by other means (for example using a ground
line next to the signal line).
