Abstract
A baseband controller includes a microsequencer with special hardware resources circuitry and a configuration that supports real-time Bluetooth functionality for an upper limit of Bluetooth slave devices. The microsequencer includes a 72-bit correlator that may also be used as an accumulator, wherein the topology provides that the correlator can communicate with a 72-bit arithmetic logic unit that correspondingly enables the correlator to act as an accumulator. The microsequencer also includes a plurality of clocks and timers for facilitating Bluetooth timing functionality, and at least four registers for temporarily storing computational data, where each of the storage registers have different sizes for accommodating different-sized packets of computational data.
