Baseband Block
Introduction
The baseband submodule controls the internal operation of the phone. It
controls the user interface, i.e. LCD driver, keyboard, and audio interface
functions. The module performs all signalling towards the system, and
carries out audio–frequency signal processing. In addition, it controls the
operation of the transceiver and stores tuning data for the phone.
All functional blocks of the baseband are mounted on a single multi layer
printed circuit board. This board also contains RF–parts. The chassis of
the radio unit contains separating walls for baseband and RF. All components of the baseband are surface mounted and reflow soldered. The
connections to the Display–module are fed through a flexible foil to the
board connector.
The Baseband Module includes power supply, modem, audio filters, micro–controller, nonvolatile memory, SIS–processor and keyboard. The
display is a separate module. Power supply circuits like regulators, voltage detection and charging control, are integrated to the custom MUUMI
IC . The modem and audio operations are integrated into NIPA ASIC. The
micro–controller is a Hitachi H8 series controller with 64 kbytes ROM and
2 kbytes RAM. The 8 kbyte EEPROM memory is of serial I
The SIS–processor is a Motorola MC68HC11A8 connected to the controller over serial bus I2C.

Modes of Operation
The module has three operating modes: stand–by, listening, and conversation mode.
Standby mode:
CPU‘s clock is switched off, only NIPA timer is running to take care of battery save timings.
If charger is connected CPU doesn‘t go to standby mode.
Listening mode:
In the listening mode, some blocks of the audio IC (NIPA) are in standby
state.
Conversation mode:
In the conversation mode all ICs are active.
