PRELIMINARY
CYW43438
Single-Chip IEEE 802.11ac b/g/n MAC/Baseband/
Radio with Integrated Bluetooth 4.1 and FM Receiver
The Cypress CYW43438 is a highly integrated single-chip solution and offers the lowest RBOM in the industry for smartphones,
tablets, and a wide range of other portable devices. The chip includes a 2.4 GHz WLAN IEEE 802.11 b/g/n MAC/baseband/radio,
Bluetooth 4.1 support, and an FM receiver. In addition, it integrates a power amplifier (PA) that meets the output power requirements
of most handheld systems, a low-noise amplifier (LNA) for best-in-class receiver sensitivity, and an internal transmit/receive (iTR) RF
switch, further reducing the overall solution cost and printed circuit board area.
The WLAN host interface supports gSPI and SDIO v2.0 modes, providing a raw data transfer rate up to 200 Mbps when operating in
4-bit mode at a 50 MHz bus frequency. An independent, high-speed UART is provided for the Bluetooth/FM host interface.
Using advanced design techniques and process technology to reduce active and idle power, the CYW43438 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.
The CYW43438 implements the world’s most advanced Enhanced Collaborative Coexistence algorithms and hardware
mechanisms, allowing for an extremely collaborative WLAN and Bluetooth coexistence.
Cypress Part Numbering Scheme
Cypress is converting the acquired IoT part numbers from Broadcom to the Cypress part numbering scheme. Due to this conversion,
there is no change in form, fit, or function as a result of offering the device with Cypress part number marking. The table provides
Cypress ordering part number that matches an existing IoT part number.

upgrade with future features. On-chip memory includes 512
KB SRAM and 640 KB ROM.
■ Low-power consumption improves battery life of handheld
devices.
■ FM receiver: 65 MHz to 108 MHz FM bands; supports the
European Radio Data Systems (RDS) and the North Ameri-
can Radio Broadcast Data System (RBDS) standards.
■ Supports multiple simultaneous Advanced Audio Distribution
Profiles (A2DP) for stereo sound.
■ OneDriver™ software architecture for easy migration from
existing embedded WLAN and Bluetooth devices as well as
to future devices.
■ Automatic frequency detection for standard crystal and
TCXO values.
