PRELIMINARY
CYW43340
4. Bluetooth Subsystem Overview
The Cypress CYW43340 is a Bluetooth 4.0-compliant, baseband processor/2.4 GHz transceiver.
The CYW43340 is the optimal solution for any Bluetooth voice and/or data application. The Bluetooth subsystem presents a standard
Host Controller Interface (HCI) via a high speed UART and PCM for audio. The CYW43340 incorporates all Bluetooth 4.0 features
including BR/EDR and LE.
The CYW43340 Bluetooth radio transceiver provides enhanced radio performance to meet the most stringent mobile phone
temperature applications and the tightest integration into mobile handsets and portable devices. It is fully compatible with any of the
standard TCXO frequencies and provides full radio compatibility to operate simultaneously with GPS, WLAN, and cellular radios.
The Bluetooth transmitter also features a Class 1 power amplifier with Class 2 capability.
