Management
Power Supply Topology
One buck regulator, multiple LDO regulators, and a power management unit (PMU) are integrated into the
BCM4339. All regulators are programmable via the PMU. These blocks simplify power supply design for
Bluetooth, WLAN, and FM functions in embedded designs.
A single VBAT (3.0V to 5.25V DC maximum) and VIO supply (1.8V to 3.3V) can be used, with all additional
voltages being provided by the regulators in the BCM4339.
Two control signals, BT_REG_ON and WL_REG_ON, are used to power up the regulators and take the
respective section out of reset. The CBUCK CLDO and LNLDO power up when any of the reset signals are
deasserted. All regulators are powered down only when both BT_REG_ON and WL_REG_ON are deasserted.
The CLDO and LNLDO may be turned off and on based on the dynamic demands of the digital baseband.
The BCM4339 allows for an extremely low power-consumption mode by completely shutting down the CBUCK,
CLDO, and LNLDO regulators. When in this state, LPLDO1 and LPLDO2 (which are low-power linear regulators
that are supplied by the system VIO supply) provide the BCM4339 with all the voltages it requires, further
reducing leakage currents.
