DESCRIPTION
The WB4343W and W43364 Wi-Fi®/Bluetooth®/Bluetooth Smart Mini
Modules are complete standalone solutions for designers looking to
take advantage of the high data rate of Wi-Fi, to interface to legacy
Bluetooth Classic devices already in the field, and to utilize the low
power consumption and mesh network capabilities of Bluetooth
Smart. They eliminate design risk and significantly reduce time-to-
market for a multitude of M2M applications.
These devices are footprint-compatible with CEL’s existing line of
ZigBee®, Thread, and Bluetooth®-based modules, allowing solutions
which easily transition between multiple wireless networking
standards via drop-in compatible module hardware.
The WB4343W and W43364 Mini Module family consists of four
drop-in compatible devices so the feature set can be optimized for
your application. Options include Wi-Fi/Bluetooth/Bluetooth Smart
(WB4343W) or Wi-Fi only (W43364) radios, plus different MCU
memory sizes (STM32F411 MCU with 512kB flash/128kB RAM or
STM32F412 MCU with 1MB flash/256kB RAM).
Based on the Broadcom BCM4343W and BCM43364 transceivers and the ST Micro STM32 microprocessor, the
Cortet Mini Modules combine the BCM43xxx's 32-bit ARM® Cortex®-M3 MCU, integrated ROM & RAM, 2.4 GHz
radio, LNA, PA, and internal transmit/receive RF switch with an ultra low power, high performance 32-bit ARM®
Cortex®-M4F MCU with FPU, 512KB or 1MB flash, 128kB or 256kB SRAM, and all necessary crystals and filtering.
These devices leverage the world-class WICED SDK toolset from Broadcom, and are capable of running the
WICED stack plus the product application code without requiring an additional microprocessor. They are optimized
for small size and low power consumption, and can be run directly from a rechargeable mobile platform battery. They

ANTENNA
The Cortet Mini Modules include an integrated Printed Circuit Board (PCB) trace antenna. An optional configuration which uses
a castellation pin on the module allows the user to connect to an external antenna. The WB43xxxSP2 family has been certified
with the PCB trace antenna only. The PCB antenna employs a topology that is compact and highly efficient. To maximize
range, an adequate ground plane must be provided on the host PCB. Correctly positioned, the ground plane on the host PCB
will contribute significantly to the antenna performance.
For optimum antenna performance, the Cortet Mini Module should be mounted with the PCB trace antenna overhanging the
edge of the host board. To further improve performance, a ground plane may be placed on the host board under the module, up
to the antenna but not extending under the antenna (a minimum of 1.5" x 1.5" is recommended). The installation of an
uninterrupted ground plane on a layer directly beneath the module will also allow traces to be routed under the layer. Refer to
the application note Mini Modules Hardware Design Guidelines for more details. CEL can assist with your PCB layout.
The following are some design guidelines to help ensure optimal antenna performance:
The antenna portion of the Mini Module should hang over the host board so that there is not any additional
PCB under the antenna.
Never place the antenna close to metallic objects
In the final assembly, ensure that wiring and other components are not placed near the antenna
Do not place the antenna in a metallic or metalized plastic enclosure
Keep plastic enclosures a minimum of 1cm away from the antenna in any direction
Under Industry Canada regulations, this radio transmitter may only operate using an antenna of a type and maximum (or lesser)
gain approved for the transmitter by Industry Canada. To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type and
its gain should be so chosen that the equivalent isotropically radiated power (e.i.r.p.) is not more than that necessary for
successful communication.

PRELIMINARY DATASHEET
Conformément à la réglementation d'Industrie Canada, le présent émetteur radio peut fonctionner avec une antenne d'un type et
d'un gain maximal (ou inférieur) approuvé pour l'émetteur par Industrie Canada. Dans le but de réduire les risques de brouillage
radioélectrique à l'intention des autres utilisateurs, il faut choisir le type d'antenne et son gain de sorte que la puissance isotrope
rayonnée équivalente (p.i.r.e.) ne dépasse pas l'intensité nécessaire à l'établissement d'une communication satisfaisante.
TRANSCEIVER IC
The WB43xxxSP2 family utilizes the BCM4343W or BCM43364 transceiver (WB4343WFxSP2 or W43364FxSP2 models
respectively), which is a highly integrated 2.4GHz WLAN IEEE 802.11 b/g/n MAC/baseband transceiver. It integrates a power
amplifier (PA) and a low-noise amplifier (LNA) for best-in-class receiver sensitivity and an internal transmit/receive RF switch.
The BCM4343W transceiver supports the Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and Bluetooth Smart protocols, while the BCM43364 transceiver
supports Wi-Fi only.
Both transceivers also contain an ARM® Cortex®-M3 32-bit RISC microprocessor, with 640kB ROM and 512kB RAM for running
software from the Link Control Layer up to the Host Controller Interface.
MICROPROCESSOR
The Cortet Mini Modules contain a STM32 microprocessor from ST Micro, which is a 32-bit ARM® Cortex®-M4F processor
running at 100MHz. The WB43xxxF3 utilizes the STM32F411 with 512kB of flash and 128kB of SRAM, and the WB43xxxF4
utilizes the STM32F412 with 1MB of flash and 256kB of SRAM. Both MCUs support a rich set of peripherals, including SPI,
USART, I2C, 12-bit ADCs and timers. This ARM® Cortex®-M4F core features a floating point unit (FPU) which supports all ARM®
single-precision data-processing instructions and data types. It also implements a full set of DSP instructions and a memory
protection unit (MPU) which enhances application security.
With the resources of the on-board STM32 microprocessor, the WB43xxxF3 and WB43xxxF4 Mini Modules are capable of
running the full Broadcom WICED stack plus the product application code, providing a full standalone solution. The WB43xxxF4
is ideal for resource-intensive applications like a Wi-Fi/Bluetooth Smart Bridge with support for Amazon Web Services and Apple
HomeKit, while the WB43xxxF3 is a more cost-effective solution for Wi-Fi enabled end devices.
SOFTWARE/FIRMWARE
The Cortet Mini Modules utilize the WICED software development environment, which allows designers to quickly and easily
integrate Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity into any product. WICED is an open-source build system based on GNU ‘make’ and
will also run on commercial toolchains such as IAR. It has a GUI development environment based on Eclipse CDT, and supports
a JTAG programmer and single-step, thread-aware debugger based on OpenOCD and gdb. The WICED platform offers several
RTOS/TCP stack options, has a simple API for accessing hardware peripherals, and includes advanced security and networking
features like SSL/TLS and IPv4/IPv6 TCP/IP networking stacks. It is a production-ready application framework, including a
bootloader, flash storage API, over-the-air upgrades, factory reset, and a system monitor.

Pb-Free Solder Paste
Use of “No Clean” soldering paste is strongly recommended, as it does not require cleaning after the soldering process.
Note: The quality of solder joints on the castellations ("half vias") where they contact the host board should meet the
appropriate IPC Specification. See the Castellated Terminations Section in the latest IPC-A-610 Acceptability of
Electronic Assemblies document.
Cleaning
In general, cleaning the populated module is strongly discouraged. Residuals under the module cannot be easily removed with
any cleaning process.
Cleaning with water can lead to capillary effects where water is absorbed into the gap between the host
board and the module. The combination of soldering flux residuals and encapsulated water could lead to short circuits
between neighboring pads. Water could also damage any stickers or labels.
Cleaning with alcohol or a similar organic solvent will likely flood soldering flux residuals into the two
housings, which is not accessible for post-washing inspection. The solvent could also damage any stickers or labels.
Ultrasonic cleaning could damage the module permanently.
The best approach is to consider using a “No Clean” solder paste and eliminate the post-soldering cleaning step.
Optical Inspection
After soldering the module to the host board, consider optical inspection to check the following:
• Proper alignment and centering of the module over the pads
• Proper solder joints on all pads
• Excessive solder or contacts to neighboring pads or vias
Repeating Reflow Soldering
Only a single reflow soldering process is encouraged for host boards.

PRELIMINARY DATASHEET
Wave Soldering
If a wave soldering process is required on the host boards due to the presence of leaded components, only a single wave
soldering process is encouraged.
Hand Soldering
Hand soldering is possible. When using a soldering iron, follow IPC recommendations (reference document IPC-7711).
Rework
The Cortet module can be unsoldered from the host board. Use of a hot air rework tool should be programmable and the solder
joint and module should not exceed the maximum peak reflow temperature of 250ºC.
Caution
If temperature ramps exceed the reflow temperature profile, module and component damage may occur due to thermal shock.
Avoid overheating.
Warning
Never attempt a rework on the module itself (i.e., replacing individual components); such actions will terminate warranty
coverage.
Additional Grounding
Attempts to improve the module or the system grounding by soldering braids, wires or cables onto the module RF shield cover is
done at the customer's own risk. The ground pins at the module perimeter should be sufficient for optimum immunity to external
RF interference.
