1. Introduction
Project Name: Marvell 88W8797 WLAN/BT Combo Card
Project Number: M26H003.00
This documentation describes the engineering requirements specification of 88W8797
(WLAN+BT) combo Card. It is a confidential document of Foxconn.
1.1 Scope
This combo design is based on the Marvell 8797 single-chip solution. It’s operating in
2.4GHz, compatible with the IEEE 802.11b/g/n standard and Bluetooth BT4.0 standard.
The 802.11n data rate provides for MCS0 to MCS7 (HT20,HT40). The 802.11g data rate
provides for 54, 48, 36, 24, 18, 12, 9, 6Mbps, and 802.11b data rate provides for 11, 5.5,
2, 1Mbps. In addition, it’s also compatible with BT4.0. This combo card has implemented
some efficient mechanisms in its software and hardware to maximize the performance of
WLAN and BT.
1.2 Feature
Compatible with IEEE 802.11b/g/n standard
Compatible with BT4.0 + HS (supports Low Energy (LE)
Support external or on-board antenna for both WiFi and BT
Support two Antennas (WiFi*2 and BT shared one ANT)
or three antennas for WiFi *2 and BT*1 ( preferred )
2x2 MIMO spatial streams supporting data rates up to MCS15(300Mbps)
Better WiFi and BT Coexistence performance
