The AD6634 is a multimode 4-channel digital receive signal processor (RSP) capable of processing up to two WCDMA channels.
Each channel consists of four cascaded signal processing elements:
a frequency translator, two fixed coefficient decimating filters,
and a programmable coefficient decimating filter. Each input port
has input level threshold detection circuitry and an AGC controller for accommodating large dynamic ranges or situations
where gain ranging converters are used. Dual 16-bit parallel output
ports accommodate high data rate WBCDMA applications. On-chip
interpolating half-band can also be used to further increase the
output rate. In addition, each parallel output port has a digital
AGC for output data scaling. Link port outputs are provided to
enable glueless interfaces to ADI’s TigerSHARC
The AD6634 is part of Analog Devices’ SoftCell
®
DSP core.
®
Multicarrier
transceiver chipset designed for compatibility with Analog Devices’
family of high sample rate IF sampling ADCs (AD9238/AD6645
12- and 14-bit). The SoftCell receiver comprises a digital receiver
capable of digitizing an entire spectrum of carriers and digitally
selecting the carrier of interest for tuning and channel selection.
This architecture eliminates redundant radios in wireless base
station applications.
High dynamic range decimation filters offer a wide range of
decimation rates. The RAM-based architecture allows easy
reconfiguration for multimode applications.
The decimating filters remove unwanted signals and noise from
the channel of interest. When the channel of interest occupies less
bandwidth than the input signal, this rejection of out-of-band
noise is called processing gain. By using large decimation factors,
this processing gain can improve the SNR of the ADC by 30 dB
or more. In addition, the programmable RAM coefficient filter
allows antialiasing, matched filtering, and static equalization functions to be combined in a single, cost-effective filter. Half-band
interpolating filters at the output are used in WCDMA applications
to increase the output rate from 2× to 4× of the chip rate. The
AD6634 is also equipped with two independent automatic gain
control (AGC) loops for direct interface to a RAKE receiver.
The AD6634 is compatible with standard ADC converters such
as the AD664x, AD923x, AD943x, and the AD922x families of
data converters. The AD6634 is also compatible with the AD6600
diversity ADC, providing a cost and size reduction path.
ARCHITECTURE
The AD6634 has four signal processing stages: a frequency
translator, second order resampling cascaded integrator comb
FIR filters (rCIC2), a fifth order cascaded integrator comb FIR
filter (CIC5), and a RAM coefficient FIR filter (RCF). Multiple
modes are supported for clocking data into and out of the chip
and provide flexibility for interfacing to a wide variety of digitizers.
Programming and control are accomplished via serial and/or
microprocessor interfaces.
Frequency translation is accomplished with a 32-bit, complex,
numerically controlled oscillator (NCO). Real data entering this
stage is separated into inphase (I) and quadrature (Q) components.
This stage translates the input signal from a digital intermediate
frequency (IF) to digital baseband. Phase and amplitude dither
may be enabled on-chip to improve spurious performance of the
NCO. A phase-offset word is available to create a known phase
relationship among multiple AD6634s or between channels.
Following frequency translation is a resampling, fixed coefficient,
high speed, second order, resampling cascade integrator comb
(rCIC2) filter that reduces the sample rate based on the ratio
between the decimation and interpolation registers.
The next stage is a fifth order cascaded integrator comb (CIC5)
filter whose response is defined by the decimation rate. The purpose
of this filter is to reduce the data rate to the final filter stage so
that it can calculate more taps per output.
The final stage is a sum-of-products FIR filter with programmable 20-bit coefficients, and decimation rates programmable
from 1 to 256 (1–32 in practice). The RAM coefficient FIR filter
(RCF in the Functional Block Diagram) can handle a maximum
of 160 taps.
The next stage is a fixed coefficient half-band interpolation filter
where data from different channels is combined together and
interpolated by a factor of 2. Next, an AGC section with a gain
range of 96.3 dB is available. This AGC section is completely
programmable in terms of its response. Two each of half-band
filters and AGCs are present in the AD6634, as shown in the
Functional Block Diagram. These half-band filters and AGC
sections can be bypassed independent of each other.
The overall filter response for the AD6634 is the composite of all
decimating and interpolating stages. Each successive filter stage is
capable of narrower transition bandwidths but requires a greater
number of CLK cycles to calculate the output. More decimation
in the first filter stage will minimize overall power consumption.
Data from the chip is interfaced to the DSP via either a high
speed parallel port or a TigerSHARC compatible link port.
Figure 1a illustrates the basic function of the AD6634: to select and
filter a single channel from a wide input spectrum. The frequency
translator tunes the desired carrier to baseband. Figure 1b shows
the combined filter response of the rCIC2, CIC5, and RCF.

CAUTION
ESD (electrostatic discharge) sensitive device. Electrostatic charges as high as 4000 V readily
accumulate on the human body and test equipment and can discharge without detection. Although the
AD6634 features proprietary ESD protection circuitry, permanent damage may occur on devices
subjected to high energy electrostatic discharges. Therefore, proper ESD precautions are recommended
to avoid performance degradation or loss of functionality.
