Preliminary Data Sheet
BCM4330
Single Chip IEEE 802.11™ a/b/g/n MAC/Baseband/
Radio with Integrated Bluetooth® 4.0 + HS and FM
Transceiver
GE N ER A L DE S CR I P TI O N
The Broadcom® BCM4330 single chip device provides
for the highest level of integration for a mobile or
handheld wireless system, with integrated
IEEE 802.11™ a/b/g and single-stream 802.11n
(MAC/baseband/radio), Bluetooth® 4.0 + HS, and FM
radio receiver and transmitter. It includes on-chip
2.4 GHz and 5 GHz WLAN CMOS power amplifiers
that meet the output power requirements of most
handheld systems while permitting an optional
external power amplifier for higher output power
applications, if required.
Utilizing advanced design techniques and process
technology to reduce active and idle power, the
BCM4330 is designed to address the needs of highly
mobile devices that require minimal power
consumption and compact size. It includes a power
management unit which simplifies the system power
topology and allows for operation directly from a
mobile platform battery while maximizing battery
life.

F E A T U RE S
The BCM4330 implements the highly sophisticated
Enhanced Collaborative Coexistence radio
coexistence algorithms and hardware mechanisms,
allowing for an extremely collaborative Bluetooth
coexistence scheme along with coexistence support
for external radios (such as GPS, WiMax, or Ultra
Wide-band radio technologies, as well as cellular
radios) and a single shared antenna (2.4 GHz antenna
for Bluetooth and WLAN). As a result, enhanced
overall quality for simultaneous voice, video, and
data transmission on a handheld system is achieved.
For the WLAN section, two alternative host interface
options are included: an SDIO v2.0 interface that can
operate in 4b, 1b, or gSPI modes, and an HSIC
interface. An independent, high-speed UART is
provided for the Bluetooth host interface. Package
options include 4.89 mm x 5.33 mm WLBGA and
WLCSP, and 6.5 mm x 6.5 mm FCFBGA.

IEEE 802.11x Key Features
• Single-band 2.4 GHz 802.11 b/g/n or dual-
band 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz 802.11 a/b/g/n (non-
simultaneous)
• Single stream 802.11n support for 20 MHz
channels provides PHY layer rates up to MCS7
(72 Mbps) for typical upper-layer throughput
in excess of 45 Mbps.
• Integrated CMOS power amplifiers with
internal power-detectors and closed-loop
power control can deliver greater than
18 dBm of linear output power (in 2.4 GHz
band).
• PAs can be powered directly from VBAT,
eliminating the need for a PALDO.
• Up to 8 RF control signals are available to
support optional external PAs for higher
output power and LNAs for enhanced
sensitivity.
• Supports a single 2.4 GHz antenna shared
between WLAN and Bluetooth.
• Shared Bluetooth and WLAN receive signal
path eliminates the need for an external
power splitter while maintaining excellent
sensitivity for both Bluetooth and WLAN.
• Internal fractional nPLL allows support for a
wide range of reference clock frequencies
• Supports IEEE 802.15.2 external three-wire
coexistence scheme to optimize bandwidth
utilization with other co-located wireless
technologies such as GPS, WiMax, or UWB
• Supports standard SDIO v2.0 (50 MHz, 4-bit
and 1-bit), and gSPI (48 MHz) host interfaces.
• Alternative host interface supports HSIC (a
USB 2.0 derivative for short-distance, on-
board connections).
• Integrated ARM® Cortex-M3 processor and
on-chip memory for complete WLAN
subsystem functionality, minimizing the need
to wake up the applications processor for
standard WLAN functions. This allows for
further minimization of power consumption,
while maintaining the ability to field upgrade
with future features.
• OneDriver™ software architecture for easy
migration from existing embedded WLAN and
Bluetooth devices as well as future devices.
