WIRELESS INTERNET OF THINGS (IOT) PRODUCT BRIEF
BCM43362
Single-Chip IEEE 802.11 b/g/n MAC/Baseband/Radio
+ SDIO
OVERVIEW
FEATURES
®
• WICED Wi-Fi SDK v3.5.2 ready
• Wi-Fi 1x1 for IEEE 802.11n
• The BCM43362 is the core part of
the BCM94662WCD4_EVB SiP
Modules.
• Fully compatible with WICED
Wi-Fi Software Development Kit
(SDK).
The Broadcom BCM43362 single-chip device
provides the highest level of integration for mobile
and handheld wireless systems, featuring integrated IEEE 802.11™ b/g and handheld device
class IEEE 802.11n. It includes a 2.4 GHz WLAN
CMOS power amplifier (PA) that meets the output
power requirements of most handheld systems.
An optional external low-noise amplifier (LNA)
and external PA are also supported.
• Integrated WLAN CMOS power amplifier with
internal power detector and closed-loop power
control.
Along with the integrated power amplifier, the
BCM43362 also includes integrated transmit and
receive baluns, further reducing the overall solution cost.
• Supports Wi-Fi Multimedia (WMM) Power
Save, WMM-PS and Wi-Fi voice Personal.
Host interface options include SDIO v2.0 that can
operate in 4b or 1b modes, and a generic gSPI
mode.

Applications
Utilizing advanced design techniques and process technology to reduce active and idle power,
the BCM43362 is designed to address the needs
of highly mobile devices that require minimal
power consumption and compact size. It includes
a power management unit that simplifies the system power topology and allows for operation
directly from a rechargeable mobile platform battery while maximizing battery life.
BENEFITS
• Programmable dynamic power management
• Supports battery voltage range from 2.3V to
4.8V supplies with internal switching regulator
• 1 kbit One-Time Programmable (OTP) memory
for storing board parameters
Supports IEEE 802.15.2 external three-wire and
four-wire coexistence schemes to optimize bandwidth utilization with other co-located wireless
technologies such as Bluetooth, ZigBee® or Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE).
• Internal frac-N PLL enables the use of a wide
range of reference clock frequencies.
• Integrated ARM® Cortex™-M3 CPU with onchip memory enables running IEEE firmware
that can be field-upgraded.
• Supports standard interfaces SDIO v2.0 (50
MHz, 4-bit, and 1-bit) and generic SPI (up to 50
MHz).
• Security: AES and TKIP in hardware for faster
data encryption and IEEE 802.11i compatibility.
