BCM43455 Preliminary Data Sheet
Power-Up/Power-Down/Reset Circuits
Power-Up/Power-Down/Reset Circuits
The BCM43455 has two signals (see Table 1) that enable or disable the Bluetooth and WLAN circuits and the
internal regulator blocks, allowing the host to control power consumption. For timing diagrams of these signals
and the required power-up sequences, see Section 21: “Power-Up Sequence and Timing,” on page 151.

Signal
Description
WL_REG_ON This signal is used by the PMU (with BT_REG_ON) to power-up the WLAN section. It is also
OR-gated with the BT_REG_ON input to control the internal BCM43455 regulators. When this
pin is high, the regulators are enabled and the WLAN section is out of reset. When this pin is
low, the WLAN section is in reset. If BT_REG_ON and WL_REG_ON are both low, the
regulators are disabled. This pin has an internal 200 k pull-down resistor that is enabled by
default. It can be disabled through programming.
BT_REG_ON This signal is used by the PMU (with WL_REG_ON) to decide whether or not to power down
the internal BCM43455 regulators. If BT_REG_ON and WL_REG_ON are low, the regulators
will be disabled. This pin has an internal 200 k pull-down resistor that is enabled by default.
It can be disabled through programming.
