Block diagram

Figure 1:Baseband block diagram
UEMEK supplies both baseband and RF with power via built in voltage regulators, which are connected to the battery . The RF pa rts use mainly 2.78 V and the baseband p arts 1.8V I/O volt­age. The UPP core is supplied with programmable core voltage of 1.0V, 1.3V or 1.5V . UEMEK includes 7 linear LDO (Low Drop-Out) regulators for baseband and 7 regulators for RF. It also includes 4 current sources for biasing purposes and internal usage. The UEMEK is furthermore supplying the SIM interface with a programmable voltage of 1.8V or 3V.
Note: 5V SIM cards are no longer supported by DCT-4 generation Baseband.
UPP operates from a 26 MHz clock coming from the RF ASIC Helgo. The clock signal is divided by two down to the nominal system clock frequency of 13 MHz. The DSP and MCU contain PLLs, which can multiply the system clock to a higher frequency.
A real time clock function is integrated into the UEMEK, which utilizes the same 32kHz clock supply as the sleep clock.
The communication between UEMEK and UPP is implemented using two bi-directional serial busses, CBUS and DBUS. The CBUS is controlled by the MCU and operates at a speed of 1 MHz. The DBUS is controlled by the MCU and operates at a speed of 13 MHz. Both processors are located in the UPP.

Nokia Customer Care 7 - System Module
The UEMEK ASIC handles the analog interface between the Baseband and the RF section. UEMEK provides A/D and D/A conversion of the in-phase and quadrature receive and transmit signal paths and also A/D and D/A conversions of received and transmitted audio signals to and from the user interface. The UEMEK supplies the analog TXC and AFC sign als to the RF section according to UPP signal control. There are also separate signals for PDM coded audio. Digital speech processing is handled by the DSP inside UPP ASIC.
UEMEK is a dual voltage circuit, the digital parts are running from the baseband supply 1.8V and the analog parts are running from the analog supply 2.78V or backup battery. Also VBAT is directly used (Vibra, LED-driver, Camera Regulator).
The Baseband supports both internal and external microphone inputs and speaker outputs. Keypad tones, DTMF , and other audio tones are generated and encoded by the UPP and trans­mitted to the UEMEK for decoding. An external vibra alert control signals are generated by the UEMEK with separate PWM outputs.
EMC shielding is implemented using a soldered shielding, RF cans and PWB grounding.

External SRAM and Flash
The Combo-Memory is a multi chip package memory which combines 128 Mbit (8Mx1 6) muxed burst multibank flash and 16 Mbit muxed CMOS PSRAM (Pseudo SRAM: DRAM with SRAM interface).
The combo is supplied by single 1,8 V for read, write and erase operations. For accelerated flash programming, Vpp = 9.0 V has to be applied to VPP input of the combo device.
The combo memory is housed in a 44-ball FBGA.

Energy management

The energy management of RM-94 is based on BB 4.0 architecture. A so-called semi fixed bat­tery (BL-5B) supplies power primarily to UEMEK ASIC and the RF PA. The UEMEK includes several regulators to supply RF and Baseband. It provides energy management including pow­er up/down procedure.
Modes of operation
The baseband engine has six different functional modes: Since the UEMEK controls the regu­lated power distribution; each of these states affects the general functionality of the phone.
1. No supply
2. Backup
3. Acting Dead
4. Active
5. Sleep
6. Charging
No Supply
In NO_SUPPLY mode, the phone has no supply volt age. This mode is due to the disconnection of the main battery and backup battery or low battery voltage level in both of the batteries.
The phone is exiting from NO_SUPPLY mode when sufficient battery voltage level is detected. The battery voltage can rise either by connecting a new battery with VBA T > V necting charger and charging the battery above V

Backup
In BACKUP mode the backup battery has suf ficient charge but the main battery can be discon- nected or empty (VBAT < V
The VTRC regulator is disabled in BACKUP mode. VRTC output is supplied witho ut regulation from the backup battery (VBACK). All the other regulators are disabled.
and VBACK > VBU

).
Acting Dead
If the phone is off when the charger is connected, the phone is powered on but enters a state called ”Acting Dead”. To the user, the phone acts as if it was switched off. A battery-charging alert is given and/or a battery charging indication on the display is shown to acknowledge the user that the battery is being charged.

RM-94 7 - System Module Nokia Customer Care
Active
In Active mode, the phone is in normal operation, scanning for channels, listing to a base sta­tion, transmitting and processing information.
Sleep Mode
Sleep mode is entered when both MCU and DSP are in stand–by mode. Both processors con­trol the sleep mode.
The sleep mode is exited either by the expiration of a sleep clock counter in the UEMEK or by some external interrupt, generated by a charger connection, key press, headset connection etc.
In the sleep mode, VCTCXO is shut down and 32 kHz sleep clock oscillator is used as refer­ence clock for the Baseband.
Charging
In RM-94, the battery type/size is indicated by a BSI-resistor. The resistor value corresponds to a specific battery capacity. Also BTEMP, NTC resistor, is located on an engine board.
The battery voltage, temperature, size and current are measur ed by the UEMEK controlle d by the charging software running in the UPP.
The charging control circuitry (CHACON) inside the UEMEK controls the charging current de­livered from the charger to the battery . The battery volt age rise is limited by turning the UEMEK switch off when the battery voltage has reached 4.2 V. Charging current is monitored by meas­uring the voltage drop across a 220 m resistor.

Power distribution

Under normal conditions, the battery powers the baseband module. Individual regulators locat­ed within the UEMEK regulate the battery voltage VBAT. These regulators supply the different parts of the phone. 7 regulators are dedicated to the RF module and 7 to the baseband module.
The VSIM regulator is able to deliver both 1,8V and 3,0 V DC and thus supporting two different SIM technologies.
The system connector provides a voltage to supply accessories. The white LEDs need a higher voltage supply than the battery can supply and are fed by a sep-
arate external voltage regulator. VBAT is directly distributed to the RF power amplifier, FCI and external baseband regulators.

RF Module Description

The RF module performs the necessary high frequency operations of the triple-band engine. Both the transmitter and receiver have been implemented by using a direct conversion archi­tecture, which means that the modulator and demodulator operate on the channel frequency. No intermediate frequencies are used for up- or down-conversion.
The core of the RF is an application-specific integrated circuit (RF ASIC), Helgo85. The other RF key components are:
An EDGE capable power amplifier module, which includes two amplifier chains, one for the low band (GSM900) and the other for both high bands (GSM1800 and GSM1900).
An antenna switch module, which contains filters and switches to combine the two TX-PA outputs and three Rx chain inputs to the antenna port.
26 MHz reference oscillator (VCTCXO).
3296-3980 MHz VCO.
Three SAW filters for Rx band filtering.
One SAW filter for the low band (GSM900) Tx path.
The control information for the RF is coming from the baseband section of the engine through a serial bus, referred later on as RFBus. This serial bus is used to pass the infor mation on the frequency band, mode of operation, and synthesizer channel for the RF. In addition, exact tim­ing information and receiver gain settings are transferred through the RFBus.
Physically , the bus is located between the baseband ASIC called UPP and the RF ASIC. Using the information obtained from UPP, the RF ASIC controls itself to the required mode of opera­tion and further sends control signals to the antenna switch and the power amplifier modules.
In addition to the RFBus, there are still other interface signals for the power control loop and VCTCXO control and for the modulated waveforms (IQ signals).
The RF circuitry is located in two shielding chambers on one side of the 8 layer PWB containing the following key components: The Small Signal Chamber contains RF ASIC, reference oscil­lator (VCTCXO), VCO, and Rx/Tx SAW-filters (GSM900/GSM1800). The Large Signal Cham­ber contains the RF Power Amplifier, the Antenna Switch Module, and the Rx SAW-filter and LNA (GSM1900).

Frequency concept

The RF frequency plan is shown below . The VCO operates at the channel frequency multiplied by two or four depending on the frequency band of operation. This means that the modulated signals from baseband are directly converted up to the transmission frequency and the re­ceived RF signals directly down to the baseband frequency.

RF power supply configuration

All power supplies for the RF unit are generated in the UEM ASIC, which contains among other functions six pieces of 2.78 V linear regulators (VR2 ... VR7), a 4.8 V switching regulator (VR1) and two 1.35V voltage references (VrefRF01 and VrefRF02).
The regulators are connected to the RF ASIC, except for VR7, which supplies the VCO. The
4.8V supply is required for the charge pump of the PLL to generate the tuning voltage for the VCO.
The reference voltages are used as bias reference for the RF ASIC for the RX ADC (analog­to-digital converter) reference.
All RF supplies can be checked either in Small Signal Chamber or in BB Chamber. The used power supply configuration is shown in the block diagram below. Values of volt ages
are given as nominal outputs of UEM. Currents are typical values.

To switch the TX-GSM 1800/1900 path both signals VANT2 and VANT3 have to be a ctivated .
Receiver
Each receiver path is a direct conversion linear receiver. From the antenna, the received RF signal is fed to the antenna switch module where a diplexer first divides the signal to two sep­arate paths for the low band and the two high bands. Then the paths are passing the Rx/Tx switches and the high band signal passes an additional GSM1800/1900 switch. As output of the module three separate Rx connections are available.
These signals are fed to the SAW band filters, which let only the frequencies of the wanted band pass on to the low noise amplifiers. The GSM1900 LNA is an external component, the other two LNAs are integrated in the RF ASIC.
The received signal is down converted in the demodulator mixers and amplified in the AGC gain stage to an appropriate baseband level and passed on as I and Q signal to the A/D con­verter in UEM for further digital signal processing.
Transmitter
The transmitter consists of two final frequency IQ-modulators and a power amplifier module with separate paths for the lower band and the upper bands, an d a power control loop. The IQ­modulators are integrated in the RF ASIC, as well as the operational amplifiers of the power control loop.
The power amplifier module contains power detectors. In GMSK mode, the power is controlled by adjusting the DC bias levels of the power amplifiers. In EDGE mode, the power is controlled by adjusting ALC in Helgo RFIC.
Frequency synthesizer
One PLL synthesizer generates all the required frequencies of the three bands for Rx and Tx operation. The VCO frequency is divided by 2 or by 4 in the RF ASIC d epending on the active band. This allows the generation of all the frequencies in the GSM900, GSM1800 and GSM1900 bands, both RX and TX range. The frequency synthesizer is integrated in the RF ASIC (Helgo) except for the VCTCXO, VCO, and the loop filter.

The VCTCXO (Volt age Controlled T emperature Compensated Crystal Oscillator) generates the clock frequency of 26 MHz. This frequency is buffered in the RF ASIC and fed to the UPP. Ad­ditionally , it is used as the reference fre quency for the RF PLL. The frequency of the VCTCXO is locked into the frequency of the base statio n with the help of an AFC volt age which is gener­ated in the UEM by an 11 bit D/A converter.
The PLL (phase locked loop) locks the VCO frequency into a stable frequency source, given by the VCTCXO. The PLL is located in the RF ASIC and is controlled through the RFBus.
The loop filter generates a DC control voltage for the VCO from the charge pump pulses of the phase detector.

The GSM 900 and the GSM 1800 filters are matched to the corresponding LNA inputs of the RF ASIC with a differential matching network (LC-type).
For GSM 1900, an external LNA provides a gain of approximately 17 dB. For conversion of the unbalanced output port to the balances input port of the RF ASIC a balun is applied, followed by a differential matching network (LC-type).
After amplification in the RF ASIC, the RX signals are down-converted to the baseband I and Q signals and further amplified by the AGC stages. This signal is passed on to the analog-to­digital converters in UEM.
The RX paths of the RF ASIC consist of the following sub units:
Separate LNAs for each of the bands: GSM900, and GSM1800.
Two PRE-GAIN amplifiers, one for GSM900 and one common for GSM1800 and GSM1900.
Two passive I/Q mixers (MIX), one for GSM900 and one common for GSM1800 and GSM1900.
The BB signal paths consist of:
Integrated BB channel select filter, 3 paths for I and Q-channel. Each channel consists of 2 stages, 1st stage (DT OS) is a single ended converter with 1st order RC filter, 2nd stage is an active RC modified Sallen-Key biquad.

Its common mode level is set equal to the external reference volt­age VrefRF02.

The baseband I and Q signals, coming from UEM, are mixe d u p to the tran smittin g fre quency in the RF ASIC.
The low band signal passes a SAW band filter. The SAW filter converts the balanced output signal of the RF ASIC to a single-ended signal for the power amplifier input.
The high band signal passes a balun to convert it to a single-ended signal. Both paths are connected to the power amplifier module via a 1dB attenuator . This module gen-
erates the required RF level to transmit a 2W signal in the low band and a 1W signal in the two high bands. It contains two separate amplifiers for low band and high band.
The output signals of the PA module are fed to the antenna switch module, where the active signal is connected to the antenna port.

In GMSK mode, the output signal of the RF ASIC has const ant level as the ALC a mplifiers are set to constant gain. The different power levels are generated by the gain variation of the power amplifier.
In EDGE mode, the ALC amplifiers generate the different power levels and the P A is set to con­stant gain.
Frequency synthesizer signals
The reference oscillator is implemented as Voltage Controlled Temperature Compensated Crystal Oscillator (VCTCXO) module. The component is located in the Small Signal chamber. The VCTCXO generates the clock frequency of 26 MHz.
The reference oscillator has two functions:
Reference frequency for the PLL synthesizer.
System clock for baseband part. The frequency is buffered in the RF ASIC and fed to the UPP (signal VCTCXO = 26 MHz, output REFOUT of the RF ASIC).
The frequency of the VCTCXO is locked into the frequency of the base station with the help of the AFC signal. This AFC voltage is generated in the UEM by an 1 1 bit D/A converter and tunes the oscillator.
The AFC voltage is calculated using the values "AFC value" and "AFC slope", which are deter­mined during Rx calibration of the low band.
The VCO is able to generate frequencies in the range of 3296MHz to 3980MHz. The actual frequency is controlled by a PLL (Phase locked loop) circuit, which compares the VCO frequen­cy to the reference frequency from the VCTCXO. The charge pump of the PLL generates pu lse to charge/discharge the capacitors in the loop filter. The output voltage of this filter tunes the frequency of the VCO.
The valid range of Vc is 0.7V– 3.8V when the PLL is in steady state. The typical tuning sensi­tivity is 250MHz/V.
