In EMMY-W161, the band pass filter (2.4 GHz BPF) is a BAW filter that enables co-existence with
LTE. For the EMMY-W165 variant, the band pass filter provides no co-existence protection against
a co-located LTE transmitter.
Figure 2: EMMY-W163 block diagram - Dual-antenna variant
In EMMY-W163, the bandpass filters (2.4 GHz BPF) are ceramic bandpass filters. An LTE co-existence variant
is not available in the dual-antenna configuration.

1.7 Additional reserved MAC addresses
The EMMY-W1 module series has four unique consecutive MAC addresses reserved for each module, from
which the first two addresses are already stored in the configuration during production. The first address is used
for the Bluetooth communication while the second address is configured for Wi-Fi communication. The Data
Matrix Code on the label includes the Bluetooth MAC address (see section 9). The remaining two MAC
addresses are not used in the manufacturing configuration, but are reserved for usage with the module.

2 Interfaces
2.1 Operation mode configuration
EMMY-W1 series module uses the GPIO_3 and GPIO_2 pins as host interface configuration input to set the
desired operation mode following a reset. The definitions of these pins are changed to their usual functions after
reset. When you need to configure the pins for a certain module operation mode, you need to provide a 100 k
pull down resistor to the ground. No external circuitry is required to set a configuration pin to high logical level.
External reset is not needed for proper operation due to internal power-up reset logic though it can be used by
the host controller through the PDn pin (active low) in case of an abnormal module behavior.
After reset, GPIO_3 and GPIO_2 pins can be used as open drain outputs (depending on firmware/driver version)
for Bluetooth and Wi-Fi activity LED indicators, but simultaneous usage of an LED connected to 3.3 V power line
and a pull-down resistor is not allowed (LED acts as a strong pull-up circuitry). Do not connect LED if you need
the pull-down resistors.
Depending on the firmware or driver used, you can use either one or both host interface operation modes:

2.2 SDIO interface
EMMY-W1 series modules support an SDIO device interface that conforms to the industry standard SDIO 3.0
Full-Speed specification (4-bit SDIO up to 208 MHz) and allows a host controller using the SDIO bus protocol to
access the Wi-Fi and Bluetooth functions. The interface supports 4-bit SDIO transfer mode at the full clock range
of 0 to 208 MHz.

Table 31: Overview of certifications for EMMY-W1 module series
7.1 Approvals
16
Products marked with this lead-free symbol on the product label comply with the
"Directive 2002/95/EC of the European Parliament and the Council on the Restriction of
Use of certain Hazardous Substances in Electrical and Electronic Equipment" (RoHS).
EMMY-W1 series Wi-Fi modules are RoHS compliant.
7.1.1 European Union regulatory compliance
Information about regulatory compliance of the European Union for EMMY-W1 modules is available in the
EMMY-W1 Declaration of Conformity [4].
7.1.1.1 Equipment classes
A multi-radio module is classified as class-1 or class-2 radio equipment depending on the frequency band in
which it can operate. This equipment class is inherited by the end-product that integrates the module, thus it
must be marked accordingly.
Class-1 radio equipment can be placed on the market and put into service without restrictions.
(Article 1 of Commission Decision 2000/299/EC of April 6 2000)
This multi-radio module is defined as class-1 radio equipment when it is restricted to operate in the
following frequency bands:
Bluetooth , ISM band 2400 2483.5 MHz
WLAN, ISM band 2400 2483.5 MHz
WLAN, U-NII band-2e 5470 5725 MHz, exludes 5600-5650 GHz
17
Class-2 radio equipment includes restrictions applied by Member States as indicated in Article 1(2) of the
Commission Decision. This class uses the “Alert Sign” as an equipment class identifier.
Figure 13: Alert sign to identify equipment Class-2
16
See Table 31 for information on what certifications are completed for each of the EMMY-W1 module versions.
17
Channels 118, 120, 122, 124, 126 and 128 have to be excluded for the EMMY-W1 series modules. The firmware was not approved to
operate in frequencies between 5.600 5.650 GHz due to lack of CCA time of 10 min. This might change in future firmware releases.
EMMY-W1 series - Data Sheet
UBX-15011785 - R05 Qualification and approvals
Page 31 of 47
If an end product allows the multiradio module to operate in the 5150-5350 MHz band (WLAN channel: 36-64),
it is defined as class-2 radio equipment and must be marked accordingly. Class-2 radio equipment must have the
"alert" sign affixed on the equipment, packaging and printed in the user manual.
The EMMY-W1 multiradio module uses harmonized frequency bands thus it is comprised by subclass H01 of
class 2 equipment, for which notification in accordance with article 6(4) of the R&TTE directive is not necessary.
A definition of subclasses of Class 2 equipment can be found in [15].

The EMMY-W1 series module is a surface mount module supplied on a 4-layer FR4-type PCB with gold plated
connection pins and produced in a lead-free process with a lead-free soldering paste. The wrap page of the PCB
is max. 0,75% according to IPC-A-610E. The thickness of solder resist on the host PCB top side and the
EMMY-W1 bottom side must be considered for the soldering process.
This module is compatible with industrial reflow profile for RoHS/Pb-free solders, Sn96.5/Ag3.0/Cu0.5 solder is a
right choice. Use of "No Clean" soldering paste is strongly recommended, cleaning the populated modules 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
module. The combination of soldering flux residuals and encapsulated water could lead to short circuits between
neighboring pins.
Only a single reflow soldering process is permitted for host boards with the EMMY-W1 series modules.
The reflow profile used is dependent on the thermal mass of the entire populated PCB, heat transfer efficiency
of the oven and particular type of solder paste used. Since the profile used is process and layout dependent, the
optimum profile should be studied case by case. Recommendations below should be taken as a starting point
guide. In case of basic information necessity, please refer to J-STD-020C standard. }

8.2.3 ESD handling precautions
EMMY-W1 series modules are Electrostatic Sensitive Devices (ESD). Observe precautions for
handling! Failure to observe these precautions can result in severe damage to the Wi-Fi receiver!
Wi-Fi transceivers are Electrostatic Sensitive Devices (ESD) and require special precautions when handling.
Particular care must be exercised when handling patch antennas, due to the risk of electrostatic charges. In
addition to standard ESD safety practices, the following measures should be taken into account whenever
handling the receiver:
Unless there is a galvanic coupling between the
local GND (i.e. the work table) and the PCB GND,
then the first point of contact when handling the
PCB must always be between the local GND and
PCB GND.
Before mounting an antenna patch, connect
ground of the device
EMMY-W1 series - Data Sheet
UBX-15011785 - R05 Product handling
Page 39 of 47
When handling the RF pin, do not come into
contact with any charged capacitors and be
careful when contacting materials that can
develop charges (e.g. patch antenna ~10 pF, coax
cable ~50-80 pF/m, soldering iron, …)
To prevent electrostatic discharge through the RF
input, do not touch any exposed antenna area. If
there is any risk that such exposed antenna area is
touched in non ESD protected work area,
implement proper ESD protection measures in the
design.
When soldering RF connectors and patch
antennas to the receiver’s RF pin, make sure to
use an ESD safe soldering iron (tip).
