(1) Operating temperature is limited by crystal frequency variation.
(2) To ensure WLAN performance, ripple on the 2.1- to 3.3-V supply must be less than ±300 mV.
(3) To ensure WLAN performance, ripple on the 1.85-V supply must be less than 2% (±40 mV).
(4) When operating at an ambient temperature of over 75°C, the transmit duty cycle must remain below 50% to avoid the auto-protect feature of the power amplifier. If the auto-protect feature triggers, the device takes a maximum of 60 seconds to restart the transmission.

4.5 Brown-Out and Black-Out

The device enters a brown-out condition whenever the input voltage dips below VBROWN (see Figure 4-1 and Figure 4-2). This condition must be considered during design of the power supply routing, especially if operating from a battery. High-current operations (such as a TX packet) cause a dip in the supply voltage, potentially triggering a brown-out. The resistance includes the internal resistance of the battery, contact resistance of the battery holder (4 contacts for a 2 x AA battery) and the wiring and PCB routing resistance.

Black_Brownout_Levels1_swas031.gifFigure 4-1 Brown-Out and Black-Out Levels (1 of 2)
Black_Brownout_Levels2_swas031.gifFigure 4-2 Brown-Out and Black-Out Levels (2 of 2)

In the brown-out condition, all sections of the device shut down except for the Hibernate module (including the 32-kHz RTC clock), which remains on. The current in this state can reach approximately 400 µA.

The black-out condition is equivalent to a hardware reset event in which all states within the device are lost.

(1) TX power level = 0 implies maximum power (see Figure 4-3 through Figure 4-5). TX power level = 4 implies output power backed off approximately 4 dB.
(2) LPDS current does not include the external serial flash. The LPDS number reported is with retention of 64KB MCU SRAM. The CC3200 device can be configured to retain 0KB, 64KB, 128KB, 192KB or 256KB SRAM in LPDS. Each 64KB retained increases LPDS current by 4 µA.
(3) DTIM = 1
(4) Serial flash current consumption in power-down mode during hibernate is not included.
(5) The complete calibration can take up to 17 mJ of energy from the battery over a time of 24 ms . Calibration is performed sparingly, typically when coming out of Hibernate and only if temperature has changed by more than 20°C or the time elapsed from prior calibration is greater than 24 hours.
(6) The CC3200 system is a constant power-source system. The active current numbers scale based on the VBAT voltage supplied.
(7) For the 1.85-V mode, the Hibernate current is higher by 50 µA across all operating modes because of leakage into the PA and analog power inputs.

4.11 Timing and Switching Characteristics

4.11.1 Power Supply Sequencing

For proper operation of the CC3200 device, perform the recommended power-up sequencing as follows:

  1. Tie VBAT (pins 37, 39, 44) and VIO (pins 54 and 10) together on the board.
  2. Hold the RESET pin low while the supplies are ramping up. TI recommends using a simple RC circuit (100K || 0.1 µF, RC = 10 ms).
  3. For an external RTC clock, ensure that the clock is stable before RESET is deasserted (high).

For timing diagrams, see Section 4.11.2, Reset Timing.

4.11.3 Clock Specifications

The CC3200 device requires two separate clocks for its operation:

  • A slow clock running at 32.768 kHz is used for the RTC.
  • A fast clock running at 40 MHz is used by the device for the internal processor and the WLAN subsystem.

The device features internal oscillators that enable the use of cheaper crystals rather than dedicated TCXOs for these clocks. The RTC can also be fed externally to provide reuse of an existing clock on the system and reduce overall cost.

4.11.3.1 Slow Clock Using Internal Oscillator

The RTC crystal connected on the device supplies the free-running slow clock. The accuracy of the slow clock frequency must be 32.768 kHz ±150 ppm. In this mode of operation, the crystal is tied between RTC_XTAL_P (pin 51) and RTC_XTAL_N (pin 52) with a suitable load capacitance.

Figure 4-9 shows the crystal connections for the slow clock.

SWAS031_028.gifFigure 4-9 RTC Crystal Connections

4.11.3.2 Slow Clock Using an External Clock

When an RTC clock oscillator is present in the system, the CC3200 device can accept this clock directly as an input. The clock is fed on the RTC_XTAL_P line and the RTC_XTAL_N line is held to VIO. The clock must be a CMOS-level clock compatible with VIO fed to the device.

Figure 4-10 shows the external RTC clock input connection.

SWAS031_029.gifFigure 4-10 External RTC Clock Input

4.11.3.3 Fast Clock (Fref) Using an External Crystal

The CC3200 device also incorporates an internal crystal oscillator to support a crystal-based fast clock. The XTAL is fed directly between WLAN_XTAL_P (pin 23) and WLAN_XTAL_N (pin 22) with suitable loading capacitors.

Figure 4-11 shows the crystal connections for the fast clock.

SWAS031_030.gifFigure 4-11 Fast Clock Crystal Connections

4.11.3.4 Fast Clock (Fref) Using an External Oscillator

The CC3200 device can accept an external TCXO/XO for the 40-MHz clock. In this mode of operation, the clock is connected to WLAN_XTAL_P (pin 23). WLAN_XTAL_N (pin 22) is connected to GND. The external TCXO/XO can be enabled by TCXO_EN (pin 21) from the device to optimize the power consumption of the system.

If the TCXO does not have an enable input, an external LDO with an enable function can be used. Using the LDO improves noise on the TCXO power supply.

Figure 4-12 shows the connection.

4.11.3.6 WLAN Filter Requirements

The device requires an external bandpass filter to meet the various emission standards, including FCC. Table 4-9 presents the attenuation requirements for the bandpass filter. TI recommends using the same filter used in the reference design to ease the process of certification.

Table 4-17 lists the I2C timing parameters.

Table 4-17 I2C Timing Parameters(3)

(1) This value depends on the value programmed in the clock period register of I2C. Maximum output frequency is the result of the minimal value programmed in this register.
(2) Because I2C is an open-drain interface, the controller can drive logic 0 only. Logic is the result of external pullup. Rise time depends on the external signal capacitance and external pullup register value.
(3) All timing is with 6-mA drive and 20-pF load.
