Hi,

In the 20732 SoC datasheet, it mentions that it fully supports Bluetooth Test Mode. I'm assuming then that it is also supported in the 20732S module. How is this mode activated in the module?

Is this mode "automatically" activated on power on if the HCI UART is connected?

Or is it related to the TMC pin (pull high)? Although, based on the post "Documentation on use of TMC pin?", the TMC pin is not available.

Thanks,

Mike

Yes, they can be.

Hello myang,

Correct.  The TMC Pin is used by our internal Broadcom Automated Test Engineering and is not available.

Thanks for the response.

What would be the suggested way to test the Bluetooth module during production? (If the HCI UART is connected to on power on, can HCI commands for testing just be sent to the module then?)

Thanks.
