Trilogy 3 MPCI M3AWEB/56GA Product Specification Introduction The primary purpose of this document is to communicate the Intel PRO/Wireless LAN & AC’97 Modem MPCI Adapter features and specifications to a technical audience. Trilogy 3 is an Intel codename that references a third generation of wireless LAN products that are OEMed-in from Symbol Corporation, or based on Intersil Prism 2.5 reference designs. The WLAN and Modem sections of the adapter are completely separate – including power and interface pins, allowing a WLAN-only version via de-population of modem components. Trilogy 3 Product Overview Trilogy 3 products transfer data at ethernet speeds (11Mbps instantaneous data rate) over the air between two or more users or between a user and the wired network. The WLAN is not a single product; it is a digital radio system with product components that can be configured to meet a multitude of customer requirements. The Trilogy 3 Access Point (AP) links to a wired LAN via a wired ethernet connection. Wireless NICs communicate to the wired LAN through the AP. Multiple Access Points are deployed in a cellular layout plan similar in concept to the cellular telephone base station layout. Document Purpose This document defines the functional characteristics of the Trilogy 3 MPCI Adapter. All of the basic functionality is provided by Intersil as part of their 802.11 DS implementation for the Intersil PRISM 2.5 radio using the Intersil ISL3874A microcontroller. In particular, the host interface access mechanisms, packet send, receive, queuing, timer services, and buffer management are already implemented and do not require further development. Therefore, this document primarily addresses the radio configuration and firmware enhancements required for the Trilogy 3 product. Key Features • Direct Sequence 802.11b physical layer • 802.11b High data rate capability – 11 MBPS, 5.5 MBPS, 2 and 1 MBPS • 3.3 volt Mini PCI Type 3A card (3.3V Aux – Modem) • 16 bit host interface using PCI IO mode for 802.11b section • In-line WEP algorithm • Enhanced power save algorithm for 802.11b section • Robust roaming and dynamic rate switching for 802.11b section • Wi-Fi certified 802.11b section • Microsoft WHQL certified • Modem Auto-configuration • Modem v.90 Compliant (software-upgradeable to v.92) • Hayes Compatible AT modem command set • Modem Wake On Ring Intel Confidential – Controlled Access Page 6 of 29
Trilogy 3 MPCI M3AWEB/56GA Product Specification What’s Not Supported • The 802.11b firmware does not currently support a low power mode of operation (< 20 ma). For Idle mode, it removes power to as many circuits as possible, but the current level of firmware implementation prevents the ISL3874A controller from using a 32 KHz low power oscillator for sleep mode. Since the controller and clock will always be active the driver does not require wake-up/resume operations (although the adapter will consume as little power as possible when there are no receive, transmit, internal (roam) or host activities in progress.) • Wake-On-LAN operation is not supported for the 802.11b section of this product. This is due to the fact that the Intersil chipset does not support 3.3VAUX detection. • A hardware “Radio-Disable” switch is not supported for the 802.11b section; however a software-implemented function is provided to disable radio transmissions. • There is no output pin to display 802.11b Activity status via an LED. Displaying Activity Status is not supported with the current revision of the Intersil chipset and firmware at this time. Future plans for support of this feature in Intel’s 802.11b MPCI product are TBD as of Revision 1.2 of this document.

Trilogy 3 MPCI M3AWEB/56GA Product Specification WLAN System Architecture The WLAN section of the adapter consists of a 2.4 GHz radio with direct sequence transmit and receive circuitry using Intersil 3874A Integrated MAC and Base Band Processor and ISL3685/HFA3783 Intersil radio chipset. The controller circuitry consists of the Intersil ISL3874A MAC controller with PCI interface, Flash and SRAM. Crystal oscillators are used to drive the controller and transmit/receive circuits. Power control circuits are used to selectively enable radio circuitry. Power on reset is accomplished via a Maxim 6326 Reset IC, and with resistors to select default configuration parameters and to put circuits into the off state until the firmware has enabled the outputs from the controller. Radio Prism 2.5 Based SRAM ISL3874A Micro- ControllerFLASH Clock Mini PCI Host I/F WLAN Block Diagram The ISL3874A microcontroller section executes under firmware control to process radio, timer and host events/operations. This chip executes RISC-type instructions in one clock using a 3-stage pipeline. The chip supports up to 8 active contexts. Context switching occurs when higher priority events cause an “instant” switch to the appropriate higher priority context. Contexts can be configured as “foreground” or “background”, where foreground contexts always have priority, and background contexts operate in a round-robin fashion. When there are no eligible contexts, the device consumes very little power. Up to 64 K words of control store and 8 M bytes of RAM buffers are accessible by the CPU address registers. All firmware executes from the control store address space in the SRAM in order to provide the required throughput for 11 MBPS data rates. The 256 KB SRAM supports low memory variables and host interface, as well as a linked list of send/receive buffers and host configuration buffers. The upper half of SRAM is used to store the executable control store code. The Host PCI interface accesses memory/registers via the ISL3874A controller; Command/Status registers and Buffer Access Paths are provided to support a simple, fast interface mechanism. The radio card includes the Direct Sequence send/receive circuitry, RF synthesizers, reference oscillator, and power switching circuits. Intel Confidential – Controlled Access Page 8 of 29
Trilogy 3 MPCI M3AWEB/56GA Product Specification WLAN Component Descriptions The Intel PRO/Wireless 2011B LAN Mini PCI uses the Intersil Corp. Prism 2.5 Chipset to implement the spreading, modulation, demodulation and de-spreading. The RF up- and down-conversion approach is the common superhetrodyne architecture with integrated chip set (ISL3685/HFA3783) manufactured by Intersil. The channel frequency, fc, is created (transmit) or converted (receive) by mixing with a low side LO frequency, flo, to the 374 MHz IF (fc= flo + 374 MHz). The 374 MHz IF is converted to/from baseband using the Intersil I/Q modulator demodulator HFA3783 IC. WLAN Transmitter Path The Intersil ISL3874A baseband processor section creates the transmit waveform and outputs the signal on the TX I/Q lines. The Intersil HFA3783 up-converts the transmit baseband signal to 374 MHz. To control the side lobes the transmit signal is passed through a SAW filter (374 MHz center, 22 MHz BW). The signal is then amplified and mixed up to the channel frequency using Intersil ISL3685 IC. The LO frequency is lowside (fc – 374M). The signal is then band-pass filtered, amplified, and low-pass filtered (2.4 to 2.5 GHz passband) to create the required output power while keeping spurious and harmonic emissions in spec. Two switches are incorporated at the output to provide for antenna diversity and receive/transmit switching. WLAN Receive Path The receive signal passes through the front-end diversity and transmit/receive switches. The signal is band-pass filtered and then amplified by Intersil ISL3685 and then down-converted to 374 MHz. The LO frequency is lowside (fc – 374M). The receive signal is passed through the SAW to provide adjacent channel selectivity. The Intersil HFA3783 creates the baseband I/Q signals and the signal is de-spread and demodulated in the Intersil ISL3874A. WLAN Microprocessor Control The Intersil ISL3874A micro-controller section along with flash and SRAM memory control the transmitter and receiver. The micro-controller section is derived from the Intersil HFA3842 and is clocked at 14.67 MHz by a PLL-divided 44 MHz crystal. The micro-controller along with the embedded firmware runs the 802.11 Media Access Control (MAC) layer control. The MAC control sends and receives packets and transfers data to and from the PCI interface to the host computer. The host computer in which the Mini-PCI is embedded can be a handheld, notebook or fixed computer. Intel Confidential – Controlled Access Page 9 of 29
Trilogy 3 MPCI M3AWEB/56GA Product Specification WLAN Frequency Generation The first and second LO are generated by two external VCOs. The first LO feeds the Intersil ISL3685 to generate the channel frequency minus 374 MHz. The second LO which feeds the Intersil HFA3783 is 2 times 374 MHz (748 MHz). A 44 MHz crystal is the reference for the synthesizers. The synthesizers are controlled by the ISL3874A micro-controller section. WLAN Hardware Environment Overview The Intel PRO/Wireless 2011B LAN Mini PCI Adapter can be used in handheld, notebook or fixed computers to provide wireless network access. The Adapter communicates over the air between two or more users or between a user and the wired network. Card Dimensions The Intel PRO/Wireless 2011B LAN Mini PCI Adapter complies with the dimensional specifications of a Mini PCI Type 3A card. The maximum dimensions are: height 50.95 mm (2.006 inches,) width 59.75 mm (2.352 inches,) and thickness 4.9 mm (0.193 inches.) Intel Confidential – Controlled Access Page 10 of 29

The Adapter’s current consumption depends on the operating state. The operating state is controlled by the Adapter’s driver software and the Adapter’s CPU. The pulse characteristics, and peak inrush current depend on the capacitance and resistance of the host power supply. The Adapter presents a capacitive load of approximately 20 uF. Noise on the 3.3 V power supply should be below 50 mV RMS. Intel Confidential – Controlled Access Page 12 of 29
Trilogy 3 MPCI M3AWEB/56GA Product Specification Modem System Architecture The 56K soft modem design is based on the Agere CSP1037 Scorpio chip set. This chip set includes an integrated direct access arrangement (DAA) that provides a programmable line interface to meet international telephone line requirements. Unlike Controller or Controller-less modems, the AC’97 soft modem uses host CPU computing power to process the incoming/outgoing data instead of having a dedicated DSP local to the modem. Isolation Barrier Host Side Line Side Hook- Tip Mini PCI AC’97 Device Device Switch Host I/F Signals and Ring SCP-16T CSP1037 DC -16T Term. Modem Block Diagram Host Side (SCP-16T) has the AC’97 link protocol built-in for communication to the Host. It is responsible to process data coming in and going out to the Line Side chip as well as commands to control the Line Side for on-hook, off-hook, dial, ring detect. The host side can be configured via Host Interface strapping pins as an AC’97 Primary (ID 00) or Secondary (ID’s 01 or 10) Codec. For the (default) Primary mode, an on-board 24.576MHz oscillator is provided which is converted to the required internal and external clock frequencies by a PLL within the Host Side chip. An analog Call-Progress signal is provided at one of two Host Interface pins. Power for the digital portion of the Host Side is provided by the host system’s 3.3VAUX supply. Power for the analog portion is provided by a charge pump, which is driven by the data-stream of the isolation barrier. The Scorpio chip set achieves an isolation barrier through low-cost, high-voltage capacitors in conjunction with Agere’s proprietary signal processing techniques. These techniques eliminate any signal degradation due to capacitor mismatches, common-mode interference, or noise coupling. All transmit, receive, control, and ring detect data are communicated through this barrier. Line Side (CSP1037-16T) communicates data with the Host Side across the capacitive barrier. The Line Side chip performs D/A and A/D conversion, provides the DAA functions such as AC and DC impedance control, ring detection, and loop current monitoring. This chip also controls the analog input/output to Tip/Ring via discrete components. Power for the Line Side is derived from the telephone line. The hook-switch and DC termination circuits of the DAA are implemented with discrete transistors and passive components, controlled by the Line Side chip.

Trilogy 3 MPCI M3AWEB/56GA Product Specification LTHOMOL.exe (Homologation support utility) Agere Scorpio modem offers worldwide support over 60 country/region modes. This homologation capability is enabled by the certain modem hardware (DAA - analog front-end design) and the software (Device driver). The device driver configures various parameters and sets the modem to function under certain telecommunication regulation and laws to pass PTT approvals. This capability allows PC OEMs and retail manufactures to market their products in more countries/regions. It will also enables end-users to have more mobility of the modem usage in laptop PC environments. While over 100 homologation parameters have their default values configured in the modem driver, LTHOMOL.exe adds the capability to modify/update the parameters that matches with the certain modem hardware to be installed. ;This section allows to patch existing country settings or add new country. ;format is Snnn=defaultValue,minValue,maxValue ;minValue and maxValue are ignored for debug registers (>=500) ;[B5] Country/Region code ;S0=4,4,8 Parameter S0 ;S516=0x21 Parameter S516 ; ;This section allows to disable support for specific countries. : ;[Disable_Country] ;0A ;0F ;B6 For the detail of the country/region codes and homologation parameters settings, please refer to Lucent Technologies Homologation Parameter Values for the LU97 Soft Modem Chip Set manual (Jan/2001).

Trilogy 3 MPCI M3AWEB/56GA Product Specification LTSMMSG.exe (User messaging & system audio support utility) LTSMMSG.exe is a stand-alone program that offers you to show pop-up windows to indicate users for certain critical events occurred, while users are using the modem function. This program supports all Windows operating systems. Selection of Un-homologated Country Messaging If the user selects some country which the modem is not homologated, either from Regional Settings and/or Modem, Dialing Properties, My Location in Control Panel, this warning message will show up. Modem is not approved in the selected country. Selecting a country other than the one in which you are currently located may cause your modem to be configured in a way that violates the telecommunication regulations/laws of that country. In addition, your modem may not function properly if the correct country selection is not made. Only select the country in which you are located. Country/region setting of the modem will remain the same as it was before if an un-homologated country/region is selected. In addition the modem function itself will not be blocked by this program. To enable this feature the following line is needed in the INF file(s) for each operating system.

Trilogy 3 MPCI M3AWEB/56GA Product Specification Over Current Protection (OCP) Messaging When the user is on the road or even at home and accidentally plugs modem into RJ-11 jack that is a digital PBX line, the modem will not go off hook to protect the modem hardware to be damaged by high voltage/current line condition. Upon off hook event, the following warning message will show up. “The modem is plugged into a digital PBX line and will not work.” The modem hardware has to equip the over current protection circuit to support this feature. To enable this feature the following line is needed in the INF file(s) for each operating system.

Trilogy 3 MPCI M3AWEB/56GA Product Specification System Audio Support LTSMMSG.exe also serves as a Windows user mode ring-3 application which samples audio data stream generated by the driver and transfers the data onto the system audio device. This will allow the system to support call progress tone monitor function without using PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) speaker function that is previously supported. This new feature eliminates the external components (circuit) required for PWM speaker support and will help reducing the BOM (Bill of Material) and the size of the modem hardware. To enable this feature the following line is needed in the INF file(s) for each operating system. (Example of system audio support in Intel Solano2 system) [Lucent_Modems] %INTEL_AMR.Modem% = INTEL_AMR_SA.Modem, PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_2446&SUBSYS_12345678 (INTEL_AMR_SA.Modem entry enables system audio support in Intel system.)
