The SDIO interface also supports the following features:Both 1 and 4 bit data busFunctions number 0 and 2Multi-Block data transferThe WLAN block uses function 2. Function 0 is used for the common I/O area.2.5.2 Bluetooth UARTThe module incorporates one UART dedicated to the Bluetooth Host Controller Interface (HCI) transport layer. The HCI interface is used to transport commands, events, ACL and synchronous data between the device and its host using HCI data packets.The following HCI transport layers are supported (detected automatically when communication starts):HCI four-wire (H4)HCI three-wire (H5)
--Page of 9 21The HCI interface has a 256 byte receive buffer and supports most baud rates, including all normal PC rates, up to a maximum of 4 Mbps. After power-up, the baud rate is set for 115.2kbps. The maximum baud rate deviation supported is -2.5%, +1.5%.The baud rate can be changed with a vendor specific command. The module responds with a Command Complete Event (still at 115.2kbps), after which the baud rate change takes place. The only parameter needed is the desired baud rate.HCI hardware includes the following features:Receiver detection of break, idle, framing, FIFO overflow, and parity error conditionsTransmitter underflow detectionCTR/RTS hardware flow control (H4)XON/XOFF soft flow control (H5)Parameter ValuesBaud rates Min: 37.5 kbpsMax: 4000 kbpsDefault baud rate 115.2 kbpsData bits 8Stop bits 1Parity noneFlow control None, XON/XOFF, CTS/RTS2.6 Environmental CharacteristicsParameter Min Typ Max UnitStorage temperature -40 +95 degCOperating temperature -40 +85 degC2.7 Mechanical CharacteristicsParameter Value type Value UnitWeight Typ 1.5 gOutline dimension Typ 22.3 x 14.8 x 2.9 (+/- 0.1 mm) mm3 Antenna InformationThis chapter gives an overview of the different external antennas that can be fitted to the module.3.1 Caution

--Page of 18 21CautionAny changes or modifications NOT explicitly APPROVED by u-blox Malmö AB could cause the module to cease to comply with FCC rules part 15, and thus void the user's authority to operate the equipment.Within the frequency band 5150 to 5250 MHz the module type ODIN-W161 is restricted to indoor operations to reduce any potential for harmful interference to co-channel MSS operation.§15.407 statement; in case of absence of information to transmit or operational failure the module types ODIN-W161 will automatically discontinue transmission.Ad-hoc frequenciesWhen operating at the frequencies of U-NII band-2 (5260 -5320 MHz), U-NII band-2e (5500 – 5700 MHz) and U-NII band-3 (5745 – 5825 MHz)the module is configured to function under the definition of a client in 47 CFR §15.202.As a DFS client without radar detection using passive scan ODIN-W161 is not able to select channel or initiate a network.Active scan and ability to initiate network (Ad-hoc) is only supported for operation on channels 1 - 11 (2412 - 2462 MHz) and channels 36 - 48 (5180 - 5240 MHz).RF-exposure statementThis equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment. This equipment should be installed and operated with minimum distance 20 cm between the radiator & your body.This equipment complies with IC RSS-102 radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment. This equipment should be installed and operated with minimum distance 20 cm between the radiator & your body.Cet équipement est conforme aux limites d'exposition de rayonnement d'IC RSS-102 déterminées pour un environnement non contrôlé. Cet équipement devrait être installé et actionné avec la distance minimum 20 cm entre le radiateur et votre corps.Any notification to the end user of installation or removal instructions about the integrated radio module is NOT allowed
--Page of 19 215.3 Compliance with RoHS DirectiveThe ODIN-W161 are produced according to the RoHS (Restriction of the use of certain Hazardous Substances in electrical and electronic equipment) directive and complies with the directive.6 Guidelines for Efficient and Safe Use6.1 GeneralRead this information before using your ODIN-W161 module.For any exceptions, due to national requirements or limitations, when using your WLAN module, please contact u-blox Malmö AB.6.2 Product CareDo not expose your product to liquid or moisture.Do not expose you product to extreme hot or cold temperature.Do not expose your product to lit candles, cigarettes, cigars, open flames, etc.Do not drop, throw or try to bend your product since rough treatment could damage your product.Do not attempt to disassemble your product. Doing so will void warranty. The product does not contain consumer serviceable or replaceable components. Service should only be performed by connectBlue AB.Do not paint your product as the paint could prevent normal use.If your product is not to be used for a longer period, store it in a dry place free from damp, dust and not subjected to extreme temperatures.The clearance and creepage distances required by the end product must be withheld when the module is installed.The cooling of the end product shall not negatively be influenced by the installation of the module when the module is installed.6.3 Radio Frequency ExposureThe ODIN-W161 WLAN module contains a small radio transmitter and receiver.During communication with other WLAN products the ODIN-W161 module transmits and receives radio frequency (RF) electromagnetic fields (microwaves) in the frequency range 2412 - 2462 MHz, 5180 - 5240 MHz, 5260 - 5320 MHz, and 5500 - 5700 MHz.
--Page of 20 21The output power of the radio transmitter is very low.When using the module, you will be exposed to some of the transmitted RF energy. This exposure is well below the prescribed limits in all national and international RF safety standards and regulations.6.4 Electronic EquipmentMost modern electronic equipment, for example, in hospitals and cars, is shielded from RF energy. However, certain electronic equipment is not. Therefore:This equipment emits RF energy. Please insure that all medical devices used in proximity to this device meet appropriate susceptibility specifications for this type of RF energy.6.5 Potentially Explosive AtmospheresTurn off your electronic device before entering an area with potentially explosive atmosphere. It is rare, but your electronic device could generate sparks. Sparks in such areas could cause an explosion or fire resulting in bodily injury or even death.Areas with a potentially explosive atmosphere are often, but not always, clearly marked. They include fueling areas, such as petrol station, below deck on boats, fuel or chemical transfer or storage facilities, and areas where the air contains chemicals or particles, such as grain, dust, or metal powders.6.6 Safety ComplianceIn order to fulfil the safety standard EN 60950-1:2006 the WLAN module ODIN-W161 must be supplied by a Class-2 Limited Power Source.
