Functional Description

4. Functional Description

4.1 MPU and Memory Subsystem

4.1.1 SAMA5D27 System-In-Package


The SAMA5D27 System-In-Package (SiP) (ATSAMA5D27C-LD2G-CU) integrates the ARM Cortex-A5 processor-
based SAMA5D2 MPU with 2 Gbit LPDDR2-SDRAM in a single package.
By combining the high-performance, ultra-low power SAMA5D2 with LPDDR2-SDRAM in a single package, PCB
routing complexity, area and number of layers is reduced. This makes board design easier and lowers the overall
cost of the bill of materials. Board design is more robust by facilitating design for EMI, ESD and signal integrity.
For more information about the SiP, see Reference Documents. The sole reference documents for product
information on the SAMA5D2 and the LPDDR2-SDRAM memory are provided in this section.
The ATSAMA5D27C-LD2G-CU is available in a 361-ball TFBGA package.
Connections of the supplies and the system pins of the ATSAMA5D27C-LD2G-CU are described in the following
schematics.

Functional Description

4.2 Power Management

4.2.1 Power Architecture


Basic operation of the ATSAMA5D27-WLSOM1 requires a +5.0V input voltage supply and a VDDBU (+1.65V to
+3.6V) input voltage supply, generally ensured by a backup battery. +5.0V power is supplied to the VDD_MAIN
domain.

As a general design rule, it is recommended to connect all input supply pins, except VDDFUSE which
CAUTION
must be connected to GND by a 100 Ohms resistor if not used, to your power supply and at least a
matching number of ground (GND) pins. For the best EMI performance, it is recommended to connect ALL
ground pins of the ATSAMA5D27-WLSOM1 module to a solid ground plane.

Power-on is controlled through the nSTART_SOM signal. This signal must be provided by the host board; for
example, via an automated reset controller or a push-button.
The ATSAMA5D27-WLSOM1 module can operate from a single voltage supply (VDD_MAIN) with a value comprised
between +3.0V and +5.5V and, with the MCP16502 PMIC device, internally generates the voltage supplies required
by the SAMA5D2 processor and on-board components.
The PMIC on-board switching regulators generate the 3.3V, 1.20V, 1.25V and 1.8V voltage supplies required by the
SAMA5D27 processor and on-board components.
The ATSAMA5D27-WLSOM1 delivers external power supplies to the main board application, such as VDD_DDR
(1.8V with 900 mA current capability), VDD_3V3 (3.3V with 600mA output current capability) and VLDO2 output
(1.8V to 3.3V with 300 mA output current capability).

4.2.2 Various Power Configurations


Two different configurations are described below, depending on customer use.
• Single Supply—ATSAMA5D27-WLSOM1 can be supplied by only one input supply (for example, a 5V AC/DC
wall adapter) and other input supplies can be connected to the internal 3.3V regulator VDD_3V3. All the PIO
lines are supplied at 3.3V.
• Multiple Supplies—ATSAMA5D27-WLSOM1 can be supplied by 5V and by a backup battery. Some PIO lines
are supplied by different LDOs for specific applications, such as an ISC camera or a high-speed SD card.

4.2.3 Power On/Off Sequences

4.2.3.1 LPDDR2 Power-Off Sequence


The LPDDR2 power-off sequence must be controlled by software to preserve the LPDDR2 device.
In this sequence, the CKE signal should be low during the full period the power rails are powering down.
The power failure can be controlled by the embedded Voltage Supervisor (MIC842) and handled at system level (IRQ
on PD31). The LPDDR2 power-off sequence is applied using the bit LPDDR2_LPDDR3_PWOFF in the MPDDRC
Low-Power register (MPDDRC_LPR).
For more information, refer to the following documents:
• SAMA5D2 Series Data sheet available on www.microchip.com/, sections LPDDR2 Power Fail Management and
MPDDRC Low-Power Register
• Jedec Standard Low Power Double Data Rate 2 (LPDDR2), JESD209-2B
Note: An uncontrolled power-off sequence can be applied only up to 400 times in the life of an LPDDR2 device.

4.3.2.2 Design Layout Recommendations


When designing the Ethernet interface, consider the following recommendations:
• ETH_TX_P, ETH_TX_N, ETH_RX_P and ETH_RX_N should be routed on the top layer without any vias. Traces
must be straight.
• ETH_TX_P and ETH_TX_N should be matched in length to within 120 mils.
• ETH_RX_P and ETH_RX_N should be matched in length to within 120 mils.
• ETH_TX_x and ETH_RX_x must be symmetric.
• Place the TX_P and TX_N signals at least 2 times the trace width away from other signals for noise immunity.
• Place signals at least 2 times the trace width away from any copper plan.
• Place the TX and RX signals at least 5 times the trace width away from other signals for noise immunity.
• Check that the ETH_TX_x and ETH_RX_x line impedance is the same for all signal layers. Recommended
differential impedance for net: 100Ω ± 5%.

4.6.3 Interfacing with NAND Flash


This Static Memory Controller (SMC) is capable of handling several types of external memory and peripheral devices,
such as SRAM, PSRAM, PROM, EPROM, EEPROM, LCD module, NOR Flash and NAND Flash.
The SMC generates the signals that control the access to external memory devices or peripheral devices.
The SMC embeds a NAND Flash Controller (NFC). The NFC can handle automatic transfers, sending the commands
and address cycles to the NAND Flash and transferring the contents of the page (for read and write) to the NFC
SRAM. It minimizes the CPU overhead.
The SMC includes programmable hardware error correcting code with one-bit error correction capability and supports
two-bit error detection.

4.6.5 Connecting to the SPI Interface


Four different FLEXCOM interfaces, with seven possible configurations (configured in SPI mode), and two pure SPI
Interfaces, with four possible configurations, are available on the ATSAMA5D27-WLSOM1 module.
The Flexible Serial Communication Controller (FLEXCOM) offers several serial communication protocols that are
managed by the three submodules USART, SPI, and TWI.
The Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) circuit is a synchronous serial data link that provides communication with
external devices in Host or Client mode. It also enables communication between processors if an external processor
is connected to the system.

SAMA5D27 Wireless SOM1
Functional Description

The Serial Peripheral Interface is essentially a shift register that serially transmits data bits to other SPI devices.
During a data transfer, one SPI system acts as the “host”' which controls the data flow, while the other devices act
as “clients'' which have data shifted into and out by the host. Different CPUs can take turn being hosts (multiple host
protocol, contrary to single host protocol where one CPU is always the host while all of the others are always clients).
One host can simultaneously shift data into multiple clients. However, only one client can drive its output to write data
back to the host at any given time.
A client device is selected when the host asserts its NSS signal. If multiple client devices exist, the host generates a
separate client select signal for each client (NPCS).
The SPI system consists of two data lines and two control lines:
• Host Out Client In (MOSI)—This data line supplies the output data from the host shifted into the input(s) of the
client(s).
• Host In Client Out (MISO)—This data line supplies the output data from a client to the input of the host. There
may be no more than one client transmitting data during any particular transfer.
• Serial Clock (SPCK)—This control line is driven by the host and regulates the flow of the data bits. The host can
transmit data at a variety of baud rates; there is one SPCK pulse for each bit that is transmitted.
• Client Select (NSS)—This control line allows clients to be turned on and off by hardware.

SAMA5D27 Wireless SOM1
Assembly and Storage Information

7. Assembly and Storage Information

7.1 Storage Condition

7.1.1 Moisture Barrier Bag Before Opening


A moisture barrier bag must be stored at a temperature of less than 30°C with humidity under 85% RH.
The calculated shelf life for the dry-packed product is 12 months from the date the bag is sealed.

7.1.2 Moisture Barrier Bag Open


Humidity indicator cards must be blue, RH < 30%.

7.2 Motherboard Solder Paste


The SnAgCu eutectic solder with melting temperature of 217°C is most commonly used for lead-free solder reflow
application. This alloy is widely accepted in the semiconductor industry due to its low cost, relatively low melting
temperature, and good thermal fatigue resistance. Some recommended pastes include NC-SMQ® 230 flux and
Indalloy® 241 solder paste made up of 95.5 Sn/3.8 Ag/0.7 Cu or SENJU N705-GRN3360-K2-V Type 3, or SENJU
M705-GRN360-K-V, no clean paste.

7.3 Motherboard Stencil Design


The recommended stencil is a laser-cut, stainless-steel type with thickness of 100 μm to 130 μm and an approximate
ratio of 1:1 for stencil opening to pad dimension. To improve paste release, a positive taper with bottom opening 25
μm larger than the top is utilized. Local manufacturers may find other combinations of stencil thickness and aperture
size to get good results.

7.4 Bake Information


The ATSAMA5D27-WLSOM1 module is rated MSL 3, indicating that storage and assembly processes must be
compliant with IPC/JEDEC J-STD-033C.
The ATSAMA5D27-WLSOM1 module has a total thickness of 3.287 mm (PCB and SMD mounted) and is comparable
to a die package. Thus baking instructions must comply with Table 4-1 of J-STD-033-C as a package body comprised
between 2.0 mm and 4.5 mm.
Refer to the highlighted information in the table below.

SAMA5D27 Wireless SOM1
Assembly and Storage Information

Figure 7-1. IPC/JEDEC Table

7.5 Reflow Profile


The ATSAMA5D27-WLSOM1 is assembled using standard lead-free reflow profile IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020E.
In addition to the initial assembly solder, we recommend a maximum of two additional soldering processes:
• the assembly on main board
• a spare heating pass in case the module must be removed from the main board for analysis
The ATSAMA5D27-WLSOM1 can be soldered to the host PCB by using the standard and lead-free solder reflow
profile. To avoid damage to the module, follow the JEDEC recommendations as well as those listed below:
• Do not exceed the peak temperature (Tp) of 245ºC.
• Refer to the solder paste data sheet for specific reflow profile recommendations.
• Use no-clean flux solder paste.
• Use only one flow. If the PCB requires multiple flows, mount the module at the time of the final flow.

Regulatory Approval

Notes:
1. X = Covered under the certification.
2. If the end product using the module is designed to have an antenna port that is accessible to the end user,
then a unique (nonstandard) antenna connector (refer to FCC KDB 353028) must be used; for example,
Reverse Polarity - SMA.
3. If an RF coaxial cable is used between the module RF output and the enclosure, then a unique (nonstandard)
antenna connector must be used in the enclosure wall for interface with antenna.

8.4.1 Antenna Placement Recommendations


Particular attention must be given to the placement of the antenna and its cable. The following recommendations
must be applied:
• Ensure that the antenna cable is not expected to be routed over circuits generating electrical noise on the Host
board.
• Antenna should not be placed in direct contact or in close proximity of the plastic casing/objects.
• Do not enclose the antenna within a metal shield.
• Keep any components which may radiate noise, signals or harmonics within the 2.4 GHz to 2.5 GHz frequency
band away from the antenna and, if possible, shield those components. Any noise radiated from the host board
in this frequency band degrades the sensitivity of the module.
• It is highly recommended not to run the antenna cable alongside or underneath the module. It is preferred that
the cable is routed straight out of the module.
• The antenna should preferably be placed at a distance greater than 5 cm away from the module. The figure
below indicates the area where the antenna should not be placed.
This recommendation is based on an open air measurement and does not take into account by any metal shielding of
the customer end product. When a metal enclosure is used, the antenna can be located closer to the ATSAMA5D27-
WLSOM1 module.
The drawing below indicates how the antenna cable should be routed depending on the location of the antenna
with respect to the ATSAMA5D27-WLSOM1 PCB. Two possible options for the optimum routing of the cable are
described.
These guidelines are generic only; customers need to check and fine tune the antenna positioning in the final host
product.
