Datasheet
MSM7712
Wireless LAN Baseband Controller
DESCRIPTION
The MSM7712 is the first release in a series of wireless LAN baseband controllers, designated .XI (a suffix
of the IEEE P802.11 protocol). The MSM7712 integrates the baseband physical layer and the lower MAC
layers into a single IC that supports specific draft standards of the P802.11 specification. The architecture
targets optimum integration with maximum user flexibility, providing a migration path to low-cost mod-
ule handsets and access points. In accordance with all three P802.11 media, the MSM7712 directly sup-
ports frequency hopping (FH), spread spectrum, direct-sequence spread spectrum, and infrared
protocols., A board-level system contains the MSM7712, a radio, a 16-bit processor, and buffer memory
ICs.
The MSM7712 provides a seamless interface to the radio, hoist, processor, and memory subsystems. The
device directly interfaces with the PCMCIA R2.1 and ISA bus, with support for 16-bit data transfers. The
device can control antenna select, synthesizer programming, and power-save modes. The MSM7712 pro-
vides FH PLPC framing, with the FH modem on-board. A bypass mode allows support for other stan-
dards. MSM7712 firmware is available from Oki Semiconductor.
Portable handheld systems inherently require minimal current dissipation during operation and standby
modes. The MSM7712 offers low power consumption via its implementation of a 3-V core. Either 3-V or
5-V I/O are available for optimal RF and host-interface design.
The MSM7712 wireless LAN baseband controller is manufactured in Oki’s advanced Si-gate 0.5 m
CMOS process for the best possible low-power performance.

... The host computer typically runs a NDIS or ODI driver that communicates to the local processor via shared memory and interrupts. The local processor performs the higher layers of the IEEE 802.11 MAC protocol while the MSM7712GS-K performs the lower layers of MAC and the PHY under control of the local processor. ...

... PCLK Output The processor clock is provided by the MSM7712. From power up PCLK is set at SCK divided register programs PCLK to be from SCK to SCK divided by 8. The PCLK frequency selection allows a processor to op- erate at either low power or maximum performance. Within a 80C186 system, the processor is synchronized to the MSM7712 by monitoring the processor CLKOUT signal and skipping PCLK periods if necessary ...

... For minimal cost applications local processor code may reside in shared memory. This may affect the processor speed because accesses to shared memory may have wait states inserted. The RAM access time is (1.5 clock cycles less 18 ns). Hence, with a MSM7712 clock (RCLK) of 16MHz, the RAM requires an access time better than 75 ns. ...

... RCK at 16 MHz). Host Interface (Between Adapter Card and Computer or Laptop) The 16-bit PCMCIA interface is fully supported by the MSM7712 with no additional logic. Access to attribute memory (the CIS configuration data) and I/O memory (host registers) are provided. In normal operation, access to the baseband controller registers and shared buffer memory is via a small number of I/O addresses ...

... The card reset is provided by HRST. HRST must be asserted for a period of time from power up to allow the oscillator to settle. The MSM7712 is set to a default state while HRST is asserted and SCK is available.

... Clear Channel Assessment is performed). The timing of TXC1 and TXC2 at the start of a transmit is programmable from the deassertion of RXC1. RXC2 is typically used for TX Power Amplifier switching, and its assertion depends on the power control mode selected in the MSM7712. This pin is asserted to power up the radio circuitry (i.e. local oscillators) for reception. The pin is programmable to be open-collector (active low) or open-drain (active high) ...

... Once a valid receive signal is determined (CCA invalid) the RSSI can be measured with the external comparator/DAC and a SAR within the MSM7712. The RSSI measurement is performed for internal and external modem options when CCA is determined.

... When MSEL=1 (low-cost 1 Mbps modem), the RXD pin is used for baseband data input from a radio which has a built-in analog data slicer. The MSM7712 has a clock recovery circuitry to synchronize to the incoming data. The recovered clock is output on a diagnostic pin for test purposes. ...

... Direction SCK Input The system clock to the MSM7712 is provided by this pin. The clock must always be active (i.e. when reset is asserted). The WLAN card operates synchronously to this clock. The MSM7712 and radio operate at SCK/2. The internal modem operates at SCK (32 MHz). The processor operates from a division of SCK (divide divide by 8) depending on a register (GLOB_CTL, see Programmers Reference) in the MSM7712 ...
