  Silicon Laboratories Finland Oy Page 19 of 45 5  Layout Guidelines Use  good  layout  practices  to  avoid  excessive  noise  coupling  to  supply  voltage  traces  or  sensitive  analog signal traces, such as analog audio signals. If using overlapping ground planes use stitching vias separated by max 3 mm to avoid emission from the edges of the PCB. Connect all the GND pins directly to a solid GND plane and make sure that there is a low impedance path for the return current following the signal and supply traces all the way from start to the end.  A good practice is to dedicate one of the inner layers to a solid GND plane and one of the inner layers to supply  voltage  planes  and  traces  and  route  all  the  signals  on  top  and  bottom  layers  of  the  PCB.  This arrangement will make sure that any return current follows the forward current as close as possible and any loops are minimized.   Layout•Supply voltage–If possible use solid power plane–Make sure that solid GND plane follows the traces all the way–Do not route supply voltage traces across separated GND regions so that the path for the return current is cut•MIC input–Place LC filtering and DC coupling capacitors symmetrically as close to audio pins as possible–Place MIC biasing resistors symmetrically as close to microhone as possible.–Make sure that the bias trace does not cross separated GND regions (DGND -> AGND) so that the path for the return current is cut. If this is not possible the do not separate GND regions but keep one solid GND plane.–Keep the trace as short as possibleSignalsGNDPowerSignalsRecommended PCB layer configuration Figure 9: Typical 4-layer PCB construction  Overlapping GND layers without GND stitching vias Overlapping GND layers with GND stitching vias shielding the RF energy Figure 10: Use of stitching vias to avoid emissions from the edges of the PCB
  Silicon Laboratories Finland Oy Page 20 of 45 6  UART Interface This  is  a  standard  UART  interface  for  communicating  with  other  serial  devices.WT41u  UART  interface provides a simple mechanism for communicating with other serial devices using the RS232 protocol.  Four signals are used to implement the UART function. When WT41u is connected to another digital device, UART_RX and UART_TX transfer data between the two devices. The remaining two signals, UART_CTS and UART_RTS, can be used to implement RS232 hardware flow control where both are active low indicators. All UART connections are implemented using CMOS technology and have signalling levels of 0V and VDD.  UART configuration parameters, such as data rate and packet format, are set using WT41u software.  Note: 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.  Parameter Possible values Data rate Minimum 1200bps (2% error) 9600bps (1% error) Maximum 3Mbps (1% error) Flow control RTS/CTS or None Parity None, Odd or Even Number of stop bits 1 or 2 Bits per channel 8  Table 13: Possible UART Settings  The UART interface is capable of resetting WT41u upon reception of a break signal. A break is identified by a continuous logic low (0V) on the UART_RX terminal, as shown in Figure 10. If tBRK is longer than the value, defined  by PSKEY_HOST_IO_UART_RESET_TIMEOUT,  (0x1a4), a reset  will  occur.  This feature allows a host to initialise the system to a known state. Also, WT41u can emit a break character that may be used to wake the host.  Figure 11: Break Signal Table  17  shows  a  list  of  commonly  used  data  rates  and  their  associated  values  for PSKEY_UART_BAUD_RATE (0x204). There is no requirement to use these standard values. Any data rate within the supported range can be set in the PS Key according to the formula in Equation 1.

  Silicon Laboratories Finland Oy Page 22 of 45 6.1  UART Bypass  Figure 12: UART Bypass Architecture  6.2  UART Configuration While Reset is Active The UART interface for WT41u while the chip is being held in reset is tristate. This will allow the user to daisy chain devices onto the physical UART bus. The constraint on this method is that any devices connected to this bus must tristate when WT41u reset is de-asserted and the firmware begins to run. 6.3  UART Bypass Mode Alternatively, for devices that do not tristate the UART bus, the UART bypass mode on the chipset can be used. The default state of the chipset after reset is de-asserted; this is for the host UART bus to be connected to the chipset UART, thereby allowing communication to the chipset via the UART. All UART bypass mode connections are implemented using CMOS technology and have signalling levels of 0V and VDD. In order to apply the UART bypass mode, a BCCMD command will be issued to the chipset. Upon this issue, it will switch the bypass to PIO[7:4] as Figure 11 indicates. Once the bypass mode has been invoked, WT41u will enter the Deep Sleep state indefinitely. In order to re-establish communication with WT41u, the chip must be reset so that the default configuration takes effect. It is important for the host to ensure a clean Bluetooth disconnection of any active links before the bypass mode is invoked. Therefore, it is not possible to have active Bluetooth links while operating the bypass mode. The current consumption for a device in UART bypass mode is equal to the values  quoted for a device in standby mode.
  Silicon Laboratories Finland Oy Page 23 of 45 7  USB Interface This is a full speed (12Mbits/s) USB interface for communicating with other compatible digital devices. WT41u acts as a USB peripheral, responding to requests from a master host controller such as a PC.  The USB interface is capable of driving a USB cable directly. No external USB transceiver is required. The device operates as a USB peripheral, responding to requests from a master host controller such as a  PC. Both the OHCI and the UHCI standards are supported. The set of USB endpoints implemented can behave as specified in the USB section of the Bluetooth v2.1 + EDR specification or alternatively can appear as a set of endpoints appropriate to USB audio devices such as speakers. As USB is a master/slave oriented system (in common  with other USB peripherals),  WT41u only supports USB Slave operation. 7.1  USB Data Connections The USB data lines emerge as pins USB_DP and USB_DN. These terminals are connected to the internal USB I/O buffers of the the chipset, therefore, have a low output impedance. To match the connection to the characteristic impedance of the USB cable, resistors must be placed in series with USB_DP/USB_DN and the cable. 7.2  USB Pull-Up resistor WT41u features  an internal USB pull-up  resistor.  This  pulls  the USB_DP  pin  weakly high  when  WT41u is ready to enumerate. It signals to the PC that it is a full speed (12Mbits/s) USB device.  The USB internal pull-up is implemented as a current source, and is compliant with section 7.1.5 of the USB specification v1.2. The internal pull-up pulls USB_DP high to at least 2.8V when loaded with a 15kΩ 5% pull-down resistor (in the hub/host) when VDD_PADS = 3.1V. This presents a Thevenin resistance to the host of at least 900Ω. Alternatively, an external 1.5kΩ pull-up resistor can be placed between a PIO line and D+ on the USB cable. The firmware must be alerted to which mode is used by setting PSKEY_USB_PIO_PULLUP appropriately. The default setting uses the internal pull-up resistor. 7.3  USB Power Supply The USB specification dictates that the minimum output high voltage for USB data lines  is 2.8V. To safely meet the USB specification, the voltage on the VDD supply terminal must be an absolute minimum of 3.1V. Silicon Labs recommends 3.3V for optimal USB signal quality. 7.4  Self-Powered Mode In self-powered mode, the circuit is powered from its own power supply and not from the VBUS (5V) line of the USB cable. It draws only a small leakage current (below 0.5mA) from VBUS on the USB cable. This is the easier mode for which to design, as the design is not limited by the power that can be drawn from the USB hub or  root port. However,  it requires  that VBUS be  connected to WT41u via a resistor  network  (Rvb1 and Rvb2), so WT41u can detect when VBUS is powered up. The chipset will not pull USB_DP high when VBUS is off. Self-powered USB designs (powered from a battery or PSU) must ensure that a PIO line is allocated for USB pullup purposes. A 1.5kΩ 5% pull-up resistor between USB_DP and the selected PIO line should be fitted to the design. Failure to fit  this  resistor  may result in the  design  failing  to  be USB compliant  in  self-powered mode. The internal pull-up in the chipset is only suitable for bus-powered USB devices, e.g., dongles.
  Silicon Laboratories Finland Oy Page 24 of 45  Figure 13: USB Connections for Self-Powered Mode The terminal marked USB_ON can be any free PIO pin. The PIO pin selected must be registered by setting PSKEY_USB_PIO_VBUS to the corresponding pin number.   Identifier Value Function Rs 27Ω nominal Impedance matching to USB cable Rvb1 22kΩ 5% VBUS ON sense divider Rvb2 47kΩ 5% VBUS ON sense divider  Figure 14: USB Interface Component Values  7.5  Bus-Powered Mode In bus-powered mode, the application circuit draws its current from the 5V VBUS supply on the USB cable. WT41u negotiates with the PC during the USB enumeration stage about how much current it is allowed to consume. On power-up the device must not draw more than 100 mA but after being configured it can draw up to 500 mA. For  WT41u,  the  USB  power  descriptor  should  be  altered  to  reflect  the  amount  of  power  required.  This  is accomplished by setting PSKEY_USB_MAX_POWER (0x2c6).  This is higher than for a Class 2 application due to the extra current drawn by the Transmit RF PA. By default for WT41u the setting is 300 mA. When selecting a regulator, be aware that VBUS may go as low as 4.4V. The inrush current (when charging reservoir and supply decoupling capacitors) is limited by the USB specification. See the USB Specification. Some applications may require soft start circuitry to limit inrush current if more than 10uF is present between VBUS and GND. The 5V VBUS line emerging from a PC is often electrically noisy. As well as regulation down to 3.3V and 1.8V, applications should include careful filtering of the 5V line to attenuate noise that is above the voltage regulator bandwidth. Excessive noise on WT41u supply pins will result in reduced receiver sensitivity and a distorted RF transmit signal.
  Silicon Laboratories Finland Oy Page 25 of 45  Figure 15: USB Connections for Bus-Powered Mode  7.6  USB Suspend Current All  USB  devices  must  permit  the  USB  controller  to  place  them  in  a  USB  suspend  mode.  While  in  USB Suspend, bus-powered devices must not draw more than 2.5mA from USB VBUS (self-powered devices may draw more than 2.5mA from their own supply). This current draw requirement prevents operation of the radio by bus-powered devices during USB Suspend. When computing suspend  current, the current from VBUS through  the bus  pull-up and  pull-down resistors must be included. The pull-up resistor at the device is 1.5 kΩ. (nominal). The pull-down resistor at the hub is 14.25kΩ. to 24.80kΩ. The pull-up voltage is nominally 3.3V, which means that holding one of the signal lines high  takes  approximately  200uA,  leaving  only  2.3mA  available  from  a  2.5mA budget.  Ensure  that  external LEDs and/or amplifiers can be turned off by the chipset. The entire circuit must be able to enter the suspend mode.  7.7  USB Detach and Wake-Up Signaling WT41u can provide out-of-band signaling to a host controller by using the control lines called USB_DETACH and USB_WAKE_UP. These are outside the USB specification (no wires exist for them inside the USB cable), but can be useful when embedding WT41u into a circuit where no external USB is visible to the user. Both control  lines  are  shared  with  PIO  pins  and  can  be  assigned  to  any  PIO  pin  by  setting PSKEY_USB_PIO_DETACH and PSKEY_USB_PIO_WAKEUP to the selected PIO number. USB_DETACH is an input which, when asserted high, causes WT41u to put USB_DN and USB_DP in high impedance  state  and  turns  off  the  pull-up  resistor  on  DP.  This  detaches  the  device  from  the  bus  and  is logically equivalent to unplugging the device. When USB_DETACH is taken low, WT41u will connect back to USB and await enumeration by the USB host. USB_WAKE_UP is an active high output (used only when USB_DETACH is active) to wake up the host and allow USB communication to recommence. It replaces the function of the software USB WAKE_UP message (which runs over the USB cable) and cannot be sent while the chipset is effectively disconnected from the bus.
  Silicon Laboratories Finland Oy Page 26 of 45  Figure 16: USB_Detach and USB_Wake_Up Signals 7.8  USB Driver A USB Bluetooth device driver is required to provide a software interface between the chipset and Bluetooth software  running  on  the  host  computer.  Please,  contact  Silicon  Labs  support  at  http://www.silabs.com  for suitable drivers. 7.9  USB v2.0 Compliance and Compatibility Although  WT41u  meets  the  USB  specification,  Silicon  Labs  cannot  guarantee  that  an  application  circuit designed around the module is USB compliant. The choice of application circuit, component choice and PCB layout all affect USB signal quality and electrical characteristics. The information in this document is intended as a guide and should be read in association with the USB specification, with particular attention being given to Chapter 7. Independent USB qualification must be sought before an application is deemed USB compliant and can bear the USB logo. Such qualification can be obtained from a USB plugfest or from an independent USB test house. Terminals USB_DP and USB_DN adhere to the USB Specification v2.0 (Chapter 7) electrical requirements. The chipset is compatible with USB v2.0 host controllers; under these circumstances the two ends agree the mutually acceptable rate of 12Mbits/s according to the USB v2.0 specification.
  Silicon Laboratories Finland Oy Page 27 of 45 8  Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) The SPI port can be used for system debugging. It can also be used for programming the Flash memory and setting the PSKEY configurations. WT41u uses 16-bit data and 16-bit address serial peripheral interface, where transactions may occur when the internal processor is running or is stopped. SPI interface is connected using the MOSI, MISO, CSB and CLK pins.  Please, contact the Silicon Labs support at http://www.silabs.com for detailed information about the instruction cycle.
  Silicon Laboratories Finland Oy Page 28 of 45 9  PCM Codec Interface PCM  is  a  standard  method  used  to  digitize  audio  (particularly  voice)  for  transmission  over  digital communication channels. Through its PCM interface, WT41u has hardware support for continual transmission and  reception  of  PCM  data,  thus  reducing  processor  overhead  for  wireless  headset  applications.  WT41u offers a bidirectional digital audio interface that routes directly into the baseband layer of the on-chip firmware. It does not pass through the HCI protocol layer. Hardware on WT41u allows the data to be sent to and received from a SCO connection. Up to three SCO connections can be supported by the PCM interface at any one time. WT41u can operate as the PCM interface master generating an output clock of 128, 256 or 512kHz. When configured as PCM interface slave, it can operate with an input clock up to 2048kHz. WT41u is compatible with a variety of clock formats, including Long Frame Sync, Short Frame Sync and GCI timing environments. It supports 13-bit or 16-bit linear, 8-bit µ-law or A-law companded sample formats at 8ksamples/s and can receive  and  transmit  on  any  selection  of  three  of  the  first  four  slots  following  PCM_SYNC.  The  PCM configuration options are enabled by setting PSKEY_PCM_CONFIG32. WT41u interfaces directly to PCM audio devices.  NOTE: Analog audio lines are very sensitive to RF disturbance. Use good layout practices to ensure noise less audio. Make sure that the return path for the audio signals follows the forward current all the way as close as possible and use fully differential signals when possible. Do not compromise audio routing.  9.1  PCM Interface Master/Slave When configured as the master of the PCM interface, WT41u generates PCM_CLK and PCM_SYNC.  Figure 17: PCM Interface Master When configured as the Slave of the PCM interface, WT41u accepts PCM_CLK rates up to 2048kHz.
  Silicon Laboratories Finland Oy Page 29 of 45  Figure 18: PCM Interface Slave 9.2  Long Frame Sync Long Frame Sync  is  the name given  to a  clocking format that controls  the transfer  of PCM  data  words  or samples. In Long Frame Sync, the rising edge  of PCM_SYNC indicates  the  start of the  PCM word. When WT41u  is  configured  as  PCM  master,  generating  PCM_SYNC  and  PCM_CLK,  then  PCM_SYNC  is  8-bits long. When WT41u is configured as PCM Slave, PCM_SYNC may be from two consecutive falling edges of PCM_CLK to half the PCM_SYNC rate, i.e., 62.5s long.   Figure 19: Long Frame Sync (Shown with 8-bit Companded Sample)  WT41u  samples  PCM_IN  on  the  falling  edge  of  PCM_CLK  and  transmits  PCM_OUT  on  the  rising  edge. PCM_OUT may be configured to be high impedance on the falling edge of PCM_CLK in the LSB position or on the rising edge.  9.3  Short Frame Sync In Short  Frame Sync, the falling edge  of  PCM_SYNC indicates the start of  the  PCM  word.  PCM_SYNC is always one clock cycle long.
  Silicon Laboratories Finland Oy Page 30 of 45  Figure 20: Short Frame Sync (Shown with 16-bit Sample)  As  with  Long  Frame  Sync,  WT41u  samples  PCM_IN  on  the  falling  edge  of  PCM_CLK  and  transmits PCM_OUT on the rising edge.  PCM_OUT may be configured to be high impedance on the falling edge of PCM_CLK in the LSB position or on the rising edge.  9.4  Multi-slot Operation More than one SCO connection over the PCM interface is supported using multiple slots.  Up to three SCO connections can be carried over any of the first four slots.   Figure 21: Multi-slot Operation with Two Slots and 8-bit Companded Samples 9.5  GCI Interface WT41u is compatible with the GCI, a standard synchronous 2B+D ISDN timing interface. The two 64kbits/s B channels can be accessed when this mode is configured.
  Silicon Laboratories Finland Oy Page 31 of 45  Figure 22: GCI Interface  The start  of  frame is indicated  by  the  rising  edge of PCM_SYNC  and runs  at  8kHz.  With WT41u in Slave mode, the frequency of PCM_CLK can be up to 4.096MHz.  9.6  Slots and Sample Formats WT41u  can  receive  and  transmit  on  any  selection  of  the  first  four  slots  following  each  sync  pulse.  Slot durations can be either 8 or 16 clock cycles. Durations of 8 clock cycles may only be used with 8-bit sample formats. Durations of 16 clocks may be used with 8-bit, 13-bit or 16-bit sample formats. WT41u  supports  13-bit  linear,  16-bit  linear  and  8-bit  -law  or  A-law  sample  formats.  The  sample  rate  is 8ksamples/s. The bit order may be little or big endian. When 16-bit slots are used, the 3 or 8 unused bits in each  slot may be  filled  with  sign  extension,  padded  with  zeros  or  a  programmable  3-bit audio  attenuation compatible with some Motorola codecs.
  Silicon Laboratories Finland Oy Page 32 of 45  Figure 23: 16-bit Slot Length and Sample Formats  9.7  Additional Features WT41u has a mute facility that forces PCM_OUT to be 0. In master mode, PCM_SYNC may also be forced to 0 while keeping PCM_CLK running which some codecs use to control power down.  9.8  PCM_CLK and PCM_SYNC Generation WT41u has two methods of generating PCM_CLK and PCM_SYNC in master mode. The first is generating these signals by DDS from the chipset internal 4MHz clock. Using this mode limits PCM_CLK to 128, 256 or 512kHz and PCM_SYNC to 8kHz. The second is generating PCM_CLK and  PCM_SYNC by DDS from an internal  48MHz  clock  (which  allows  a  greater  range  of  frequencies  to  be  generated  with  low  jitter  but consumes  more  power).  This  second  method  is  selected  by  setting  bit  48M_PCM_CLK_GEN_EN  in PSKEY_PCM_CONFIG32. When in this mode and with long frame sync, the length of PCM_SYNC can be either 8 or 16 cycles of PCM_CLK, determined by LONG_LENGTH_SYNC_EN in PSKEY_PCM_CONFIG32. The Equation 2 describes PCM_CLK frequency when being generated using the internal 48MHz clock:
  Silicon Laboratories Finland Oy Page 33 of 45  Equation 2: PCM_CLK Frequency When Being Generated Using the Internal 48MHz Clock  The frequency of PCM_SYNC relative to PCM_CLK can be set using Equation 3:  Equation 3: PCM_SYNC Frequency Relative to PCM_CLK  CNT_RATE,  CNT_LIMIT  and  SYNC_LIMIT  are  set  using  PSKEY_PCM_LOW_JITTER_CONFIG.  As  an example,  to  generate  PCM_CLK  at  512kHz  with  PCM_SYNC  at  8kHz,  set PSKEY_PCM_LOW_JITTER_CONFIG to 0x08080177.  9.9  PCM Configuration The  PCM  configuration  is  set  using  two  PS  Keys,  PSKEY_PCM_CONFIG32  detailed  in  Table  18  and PSKEY_PCM_LOW_JITTER_CONFIG in Table 19. The default for PSKEY_PCM_CONFIG32 is 0x00800000, i.e.,  first  slot  following  sync  is  active,  13-bit  linear  voice  format,  long  frame  sync  and  interface  master generating 256kHz PCM_CLK from 4MHz internal clock with no tri-state of PCM_OUT.

  Silicon Laboratories Finland Oy Page 36 of 45 10 I/O Parallel Ports Six lines of programmable bidirectional input/outputs (I/O) are provided. All the PIO lines are power from VDD. PIO lines can be configured through software to have either weak or strong pull-ups or pull-downs. All PIO lines  are  configured  as  inputs  with  weak  pull-downs  at  reset.  Any  of  the  PIO  lines  can  be  configured  as interrupt request lines or as wake-up lines from sleep modes. WT41u has a  general  purpose analogue  interface pin AIO[1].  This  is  used  to  access  internal  circuitry  and control signals. It may be configured to provide additional functionality. Auxiliary functions available via AIO[1] include an 8-bit ADC and an 8-bit DAC. Typically the ADC is used for battery  voltage  measurement.  Signals  selectable at  this  pin include  the  band  gap reference  voltage  and  a variety of clock signals: 48, 24, 16, 8MHz and the XTAL clock frequency. When used with analogue signals, the  voltage  range  is  constrained  by  the  analogue  supply  voltage  internally  to  the  module  (1.8V).  When configured to drive out digital level signals (e.g., clocks), the output voltage level is determined by VDD. 10.1 PIO Defaults Silicon Labs cannot guarantee that these terminal functions remain the same. Refer to the software release note for the implementation of these PIO lines, as they are firmware build-specific.
  Silicon Laboratories Finland Oy Page 37 of 45 11 Reset WT41u  may  be  reset  from  several  sources:  RESET  pin,  power  on  reset,  a  UART  break  character  or  via software configured watchdog timer. The RESET pin is an active low reset and is internally filtered using the internal low frequency clock oscillator. A reset will be performed between 1.5 and 4.0ms following RESETB being active. It is recommended that RESET be applied for a period greater than 5ms. The power on reset occurs when the VDD_CORE supply internally to the module falls below typically 1.5V and is released when VDD_CORE rises above typically 1.6V. At reset the digital I/O pins are set to inputs for bidirectional pins and outputs are tri-state. The reset  should be held active at power up  until all the  supply voltages  have  stabilized to ensure  correct operation of the internal flash memory. Following figure shows an example of a simple power up reset circuit. Time  constant  of  the  RC  circuitry  is  set  so  that  the  supply  voltage  is  safely  stabilized  before  the  reset deactivates.   Figure 24: Example of a simple power on reset circuit.

Il est strictement interdit d'utiliser d'autres types d'antenne avec cet appareil.  Le présent  appareil est conforme aux CNR  d’Industrie  Canada  applicables  aux  appareils radio exempts de licence. L’exploitation est autorisée aux deux conditions suivantes : 1) l’appareil ne doit pas produire de brouillage; 2)  l’utilisateur  de  l’appareil  doit  accepter  tout  brouillage  radioélectrique  subi,  même  si  le  brouillage  est susceptible d’en compromettre le fonctionnement.  Déclaration relative à l'exposition aux radiofréquences (RF) Les  limites  applicables à l’exemption  de  l’évaluation  courante  du  DAS  sont énoncées  dans  le  CNR  102,  5e édition.  L'appareil  WT41U  répond  aux  exigences  données  quand  la  distance  de  séparation  minimum  par rapport au corps humain est inférieure ou égale à 40 mm. L'évaluation de l'exposition aux RF ou du DAS n'est pas requise quand la distance de séparation est de 40 mm ou plus. Si la distance de séparation est inférieure à 40 mm, il incombe à l'intégrateur FEO d'évaluer le DAS.      Responsabilités du FEO ayant trait à la conformité avec les règlements IC Le module WT41U a été certifié pour une intégration dans des produits uniquement par les intégrateurs FEO dans les conditions suivantes :    La ou les antennes doivent être installées de telle façon qu'une distance de séparation minimum de 40 mm soit maintenue entre le radiateur (antenne) et toute personne à tout moment.
  Silicon Laboratories Finland Oy Page 42 of 45   Le  module  émetteur  ne  doit  pas  être  installé  au  même  endroit  ou  fonctionner  conjointement  avec toute autre antenne ou émetteur.  Dès  lors  que  les  deux  conditions  ci-dessus  sont  respectées,  d'autres  tests  de  l'émetteur  ne  sont  pas  obligatoires. Cependant, il incombe toujours à l'intégrateur FEO de tester la conformité de son produit final vis-à-vis de  toute  exigence  supplémentaire avec ce  module installé  (par exemple,  émissions  de  dispositifs numériques, exigences relatives aux matériels périphériques PC, etc).  REMARQUE  IMPORTANTE :  S'il  s'avère  que  ces  conditions  ne  peuvent  être  respectées  (pour  certaines configurations ou la colocation avec un autre émetteur), alors l'autorisation IC n'est plus considérée comme valide et l'identifiant IC ne peut plus être employé sur le produit final.
