Relative humidity range is 5...95%.
The BB module is not protected against water . Condensed or spla shed water might cause mal-
function. Any submerge of the phone will cause permanent damage. Long-term high humidity,
with condensation, will cause permanent damage because of corrosion.

The BaseBand Engine consists of the TEMS (TikuEdge Memory Stacked Package) concept
and UEMEK. The TEMS concept combines all memory components in one package, which is
stacked on top of the TikuEdge. The memory combines 128Mbit NOR Flash, 512Mbit NAND
Flash and 128Mbit SDRAM in one package. The TikuEdge is also implemented in a stacked
package in which all pin connections are available on bottom pinout, and memory interface on
top pin out (POP I/F).
The energy manegement related part of the microBB4.5 engine is the UEMEK.
RTC Circuitry
Therefore a voltage regulator is used to supply the RTC circu it via the battery . The circu it looks
as follows:
Figure 1: RTC supply circuit
This is used in sleep mode where it is able to source 3mA. The supply VBAT_PA is byp assing
the HW switch, and therefore will have contact to the battery also whe n the SIM drawer is pulled
out.
The circuit will give a long back up time. Capacity on the battery when it has been discharged
to engine cut off (3,1V) is still 2.2mAh before battery voltage reaches 2,9V. This gives a back
up time of approx:
Since the RM-14 project is equipped with a “fixed battery”, a need of a specific HW reset solution is required, since this is no longer possible by removing the battery. This request is meet
by the implementation of a power cut-of f switch that disconnects the battery power from the rest
of the phone. This switch is implemented by 2 P-Channel MOSFET’s inserted in the battery
power line.
RTC backup:
A minimum of 10 minutes power supplied to the RTC circuit is required.
Dead battery charge:
A battery safety circuit is protected by battery cell, which must be re-enabled.
Description:
The circuit depicted in HW Reset circuit-figure is connected to battery at “VBAT” and to the
phone at VBA T_OUT. The switch referred to as “SW” illustrates the switch, which enables power, supplied to the phone. This is implemented as a normally open switch in the SIM can. Its
function is to open when SIM-card is inserted and close whenever it’s extracted.
Beside of the PA-Module implementation, the rest of the phone will be powered from the
VBAT_OUT.
Safety protected battery mode
This mode implies a battery that has its cell disconnected from battery terminals by the batt eries own protection circuit .
When the protection circuit is disabled, the battery cell voltage is visible at the ba ttery terminals.
This means that the voltage of VBA T_OUT equals the battery cells whereas this must be higher
than the Gate-Source threshold voltage of Q1-2.
The UEMEK is providing the power for the phone. It consist of the following regulators:
− BB 8 voltage regulators
− RF 7 voltage regulators, 2 current regulators
The BB regulators in the UEMEK are controlled by MCUSW except VANA, VFLASH1, VIO,
which are controlled by the UEMEK itself. The RF regulators are controlled by DSPSW except
VR3, which is controlled by the UEMEK.
An external regulator (SMPS) provides the core voltage for the phone processor (T ikuEDGE).
The inputs of the UEMEK regulators are filtered by a coil / capacitor filter. Some of the inputs
are joined together..
Figure below shows the connections in the different filters.
VIO regulator is overloaded in sleep mode (this issue is inherited from Nokia 6230). Due to
peak currents on display and SDRAM the maximum output current for VIO regulator (2mA) is
exceeded.

■ External regulators
VCORE SMPS
The VCORE regulator is based on the LM2708 step-down DC-DC converter . The regulator can
provide 350mA and can switch between 1.35 – 1.57V output voltag e. It can switch between low
power mode (Sleep) (linear mode) and full power mode (switched).
- Input voltage 2.7 – 5.5V
- Output voltage 1.35V – 1.57V
- External Sync input (PWM frequency between 500kHz and 750khz)
An external regulator powers the BC02 module. The used regulator is a LP3987ITL by National
Semiconductor. The output voltage is 2.8V and the output current is 150mA continuously.
White Led Driver
A white led driver is implemented for display backlight and key_UI le’s. RGB Led Regulator
This regulator supplies the RGB led.
Filter Components
All connectors going to the “outside world” have filter components, ESD protection and EMC
reduction.
The Digital/Data lines on SIM have special d edicated filter ASIP . The belo w figure show the SIM
filtering.
Figure 5:SIM Filtering
The Audio circuit: Earpiece, IHF, internal microphone and external speaker are filtered with discrete components (common mode reduction coils, Varistors, caps and resistors), where as the
external microphone uses differential mode mic. ASIP.
The 16 UEMEK BB & RF regulators are specified to have a decoupling cap of 1 uF ±20%.
The battery connector has two pogo pins one for VBA T (Pin A) and one f or GND (Pin B). There
are no connections for either BTEMP or BSI. Hence the temperature is measured with a NTC
on PWB opposite side of battery.
The connector has a dynamic movement area of 0.6 - 2.1mm with a force of 2.3 – 0.3N respectivly.
Figure 7: The connector
■ Battery
Type:BL-8N
Technology:Li-Ion. 4.2V charging. 3.1V cut-off
Capacity:700 mAh
The battery pack is designed for RM-14 .
The BSI resistor is placed on the main PWB as RM-14 supports only one battery capacity. Fur-
ther a BSI connection is added to the Flash interface.
The battery temperature is measured by a NTC resistor placed on the main PWB, opposite to
the Battery.
Battery pack has an impedance of 130 - 150mΩ (0 – 45
The module has only one operating mode: Bayer mode (raw pixel data output). Thus viewfinder, video streaming, colour correction, white balance etc. must be handled in software.
■ SIM interface
The engine first tries to contact SIM card with 1.8V. If no response is given, 3.0V supply is tried
instead.
The whole SIM interface locates in two asics; TIKU and UEMEK.

Flash Pads Pattern
These are accessed through the SIM Can by removing the SIM draw’. There is no access to
the battery connector and hereby the battery, through this interface connection. The battery
cannot be charged when the POS adapter is inserted.
The power is supplied to the Engine for purposes of power supply during flashing only. Also,
this interface is used for flashing when battery is inserted, and hereby the I/F ensures that there
is no connection to battery.
RM-14 suppports data connectivity via the Infra Red lin k. The IR interface is integrated into the
TIKU and the main external component is the IR module. The datarate supported will be
1.152Mbit. The circuit around the module is the same as in Nokia 6230. However, since the IR
window due to design reasons is lifted in relations to the PWB an lig htguide has to connect the
IR light and the IR window . Thus the u p firing module TFDU5307 from Vishay has been selected, instead of the one used in Nokia 6230.
IrDA Tiku EDGE Interface
This interface receives data from, and transmits data to peripheral equipment. It transforms serial data to parallel data, for the MCU or DSP, and vice versa.
The Display Unit interface is a parallel interface.
Engine Interface
A 24-pin connector provides the interface between the Display Unit and the Engine PWB.
■ Keyboard/UI
UI module
RM-14 is instead of a traditional alphanumerical keyboard equipped with a rotator. The user
interface is thus the rotator + 5 keys (upper soft key, lower soft key, send, end/power, select).
All this combined with backlight is called UI module.
The schematic of the complete UI-module can be seen below.

In the middle of the rotator there is a select key. On top of this 4 keys are present, these are:
− Lower soft key
These are implemented so that they can be pressed (and detected) simultaneously.
The powerkey is implemented in the END key. Therefore this will be connected to the
PWRONX pin on the UEME.
Rotator
The connections from the rotator module (including keys) to the engine are:
-pins on TIKU are corresponding lowercase letters (Thus switch A corresponds to pin A on
TIKU).
If the system has been initalized following routine is present (starting at point 1):
System has enabled pin c (driven low), a and b are disabled (pulled high).
Pos. 1: Contact A and B are closed, C is open (pin a = hi, b = hi, c = lo).
Between 1 & 2: Rotating the wheel CW causes:
Contact A to open => Now only B is closed, (pin a = hi, b = hi, c = lo).
Pos. 2: Rotating further CW causes:
C to close => now B and C is closed, This causes a low interrupt on pin b (pin a = hi, b = lo, c
= lo).
New state in SW is set: (pin a = lo, b = hi, c = hi). Now ready for next step.
Between 2 & 3: Rotating further CW causes:
B to open => now only C is closed, (pin a = lo, b = hi, c = hi).
Pos. 3: Rotating further CW causes:
A to close => Now A and C are closed. This causes a low interrupt on pin c (pin a = lo, b = hi,
c = lo).
New state in SW is set: (pin a = hi, b = lo, c = hi). Now ready for next step.
Between 3 & 1: Rotating further CW causes:
contact C to open => Now only A is closed.
Pos.1: This is similar to the first position 1. The pattern is repeated.
This pattern will go on as long as the rotator is turned CW, and the switches open and close
regulairy.
This means:
-In between steps only one switch is closed. This switch stays closed while the 2 other are
changing state.
-Every time a switch closes a low interrupt is generated.
-When going CCW the same pattern will happen, but in opposite order.
-Every time an interrupt is generated a new state has to be set.
-If a false state occurs, initalization routine has to be run until a correct state is reached.
Whether the rotator movement is CW (down) or CCW (up) can thus b e decoded by comparing
the interrupt pin with the stage of the last interrupt.
■ Slide switch

Figure 14: The switch
The signal from the Hall IC is connected to the analog keyboard input (AuxDet) in the UEME,
as this also is an interrupt input. This allows the phone to wake up, by opening the phone.
Analog keyboard input is used due to interrupt possibilities and because the Hall IC requires a
minimum supply voltage of 2.7V.
The Hall solution requires a magnet, which is placed on top of Ha ll-IC, and is moved away from
the sensor with the moving mechanics, thus making a change of the magnetic field. The magnet has the dimensions 5x3x1 mm and is mounted in the top of the phone in the sliding part.
The circuit is build around LM2795(NMP code: 4341425. This is a switched capacitor type step
up converter. It has 5 outputs. 4 of them are mirrored current sources (D1-D4), and the 5

Driving display and UI backlight
The mirrored current sources are used to drive the display backlight (D1-D3), and the backlight(D4) to the UI-module (rotator).
Driving RGB LED
The Pout output (from the chargepump) is fed to the RGB LED’s.
The RF module performs the necessary high frequency operations of the EGSM900/
GSM1800/GSM1900 tripleband (EDGE) engine in the RM-14 product.
Both the transmitter and receiver have been implemented by using direct conversion architecture, which means that the modulator and demodulator operate at the channel frequency.
The core of the RF is an application-specific integrated circuit, Helgo. Another core component
is a power amplifier module, which includes two amplifier chains, one for EGSM900 and the
other for GSM1800/GSM1900.
Other key components include:
• 26 MHz VCTCXO for frequency reference
• 3296-3980 MHz SHF VCO (super high frequency voltage controlled oscillator)
• front end module comprising a RX/TX switch and two RF bandpass SAW filters
• three additional SAW filters
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 information about
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 TIKU and Helgo.
The RF circuitry is located on both sides of the 8 layer PWB.
EMC leakage is prevented by using metal cans. The RF circuits are separated to four blocks:
− FM radio.
−PA, front end module and VCTCXO.
− Helgo RF IC, baluns and balanced filters.
− VCO
The baseband circuitry is located on both side of the board, which is shielded with a meallized
frame and ground plane of the UI-board.
RF frequency plan is shown below. The VCO operates at the channe l frequen cy multiplie d b y
two or four depending on the frequency band of operation.
The transceiver baseband section has a multi function analog ASIC, UEM, which contains
among other functions six pieces of 2.78 V linear regulators and a 4.8 V switching regulator.
The seven regulators are named VR1 to VR7. VrefRF01 and VrefRF02 are used as the reference voltages for the Helgo, VrefRF01 (1.35V) for the bias reference and VrefRF02 (1.35V) for
the RX ADC (analog-to-digital converter) reference.
The regulators (except for VR7) are connected to the Helgo.

The VCO frequency is locked by a PLL (phase locked loop) into a stable frequency source given by a VCTCXO, which is running at 26 MHz.
The frequency synthesizer is integrated in Helgo except for the VCTCXO, VCO, and the loop
filter.
■ Receiver
Each receiver path is a direct conversion linear receiver. From the antenna the received RFsignal is fed to a front-end module where a diplexer first divides the signal to two separate p aths
according to the band of operation: either lower, EGSM900 or upper, GSM1800/GSM1900
path.
Most of the receiver circuitry is included in Helgo.
■ Transmittter
The transmitter consists of two final frequency IQ-modulators and power amplifiers, for the lower and upper bands separately, and a power control loop. The IQ-modulators are integrated in
Helgo, as well as the operational amplifiers of the power control loop. The two power amp lifiers
are located in a single module with power detector.
The RF ASIC features include
Balanced I/Q demodulator and balanced I/Q modulator
Power control operational amplifier, acts as an error amplifier
The signal from VCO is balanced, frequencies 3296 to 3980 MHz
Low noise amplifiers (LNAs) for EGSM900 and GSM1800 are integrated.
The Helgo can be tested by test points only.
■ AFC function
AFC is used to lock the transceiver’s clock to the frequency of the base station.
