1. RF Receiver Block
1.1 Receiver Path
The receiver path uses a low IF scheme to down-convert the received bit signal for
demodulation in the digital demodulator and bit synchronizer. The receiver path
provides a high degree of linearity, an extended dynamic range, and high order on-
chip channel filtering to ensure reliable operation in the noisy 2.4 GHz ISM band. The

in most applications with no off-chip filtering. For integrated handset operation where
the Bluetooth function is integrated close to the cellular transmitter, minimal external
filtering is required to eliminate the desensitization of the receiver by the cellular
transmit signal.

performs an optimal frequency tracking and bit synchronization algorithm.
1.1.2 Receiver Signal Strength Indicator
The BCM2046 radio provides an Receiver Signal Strength (RSSI) signal to the
baseband so that the controller can take part in a Bluetooth power-controlled link by
providing a metric of its own receiver signal strength to determine whether the
transmitter should increase or decrease its output power.

2. RF Transmitter Block
2.1 Transmitter Path
The BCM2046 features a fully integrated zero IF transmitter. The baseband transmit
data is digitally GFSK modulated in the modem block and up-converted to the 2.4 GHz
ISM band in the transmitter path. The transmitter path consists of signal filtering, I/Q
up-conversion, high-output power amplifier (PA), and RF filtering. It also incorporates
new modulation schemes P/4-DQPSK for 2 Mb

enhanced data rate.
2.1.1 Digital Modulator
The digital modulator performs the data modulation and filtering required for the GFSK,
π/4DQPSK, and 8-DPSK signal. The fully digital modulator minimizes any frequency
drift or anomalies in the modulation characteristics of the transmitted signal and is
much more stable than direct VCO modulation schemes.
2.1.2 Digital Demodulator and Bit Synchronizer
The digital demodulator and bit synchronizer takes the low IF received signal and
performs an optimal frequency tracking and bit synchronization algorithm.
2.1.3 Power Amplifier
The integrated PA for the BCM2046 can transmit at a maximum power of +4dBm for
class2 operation. The transmit power levels are for basic rate and EDR. Due to the
linear nature of the PA, combined with some integrated filtering, no external filters are
required for meeting Bluetooth and regulatory harmonic and spurious requirements.
For integrated mobile handset applications, where Bluetooth is integrated next to the
cellular radio, minimal external filtering can be applied to achieve near thermal noise
levels for spurious and radiated noise emissions.

high performance Bluetooth operation. The BBC manages the buffering, segmentation, and
routing of data for all connections. It also buffers data that passes through it, handles data
flow control, schedules SCO/ACL TX/RX transactions, monitors Bluetooth slot usage,
optimally segments and packages data into baseband packets, manages connection status
indicators, and composes and decodes HCI packets. In addition to these functions, it
independently handles HCI event types, and HCI command types.
4. Microprocessor Unit
The BCM2046 microprocessor unit(μPU) runs software from link control(LC) layer, up to the
host controller interface(HCI). The microprocessor is based on ARM7TDMIS 32-bit RISC

5. EEPROM Interface

EEPROM
Interface
The BCM2046 provides the Broadcom Serial Control(BSC) master interface; the BSC is
programmed by the CPU to generate four different types of BSC transfers on the bus: read-
only, write-only, combined read/write, and combined write-read. BSC supports both low-speed
and fast mode devices. The BSC is compatible with I2C slave devices, except that multiple
I2C masters are not supported, and flexible wait state insertion by either the master interface
or slave devices are not supported. The EEPROM may contain configuration information

programmable if the default settings are not desired. This allows the end manufacturer
to customize the descriptors that the BCM2046 uses to identify itself on the USB port,
including the Vendor ID and Product ID. The custom USB descriptor information may
be stored in external EEPROM so that it is available at boot time.
7. Crystal Interface and Clock Generation
The BCM2046 uses a fractional-N synthesizer to generate the radio frequencies, clock,
and data packet timing. This enables it to operate from any of a multitude of frequency
sources. This may either be an external source such as a TCXO or crystal interfaced
directly to the device. The default frequency reference setting is a 26-MHz crystal or
