Descriptive Information
Technical Description
The RF platform of GEN11 supports highly integrated LTE/UMTS/GSM-transceiver, with all necessary features
to enable multi mode, multi band car telematics applications. It incorporates a fully integrated dual mode
receiver, multi band TX outputs, TCVCXO control, a measurement interface, Qualcomm(Transceiver / Modem)
compliant high speed data and control interface, a multi mode timer unit and all necessary front end signals
for the complete RF Engine control. Overall the GEN11 directly supports RF engines with up to GSM bands,
WCDMA bands and LTE bands.
