7FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
7.1Power supply and power management
7.1.1POWER SUPPLY
The UAA3515A is used in a cordless telephone handset
and in a base unit. The handset unit is battery powered
and operates on three NiCd cells. The minimum supply
voltage (VCC) is 2.9 V.
7.1.2POWER SAVING
When the UAA3515A is used in a handset, it is important
to minimize current consumption. The main operating
modes are:
• Active mode (talk): all blocks are powered
• RX mode: all circuits in the receiver part are powered

RF receiverpower ONpower ONpower OFF
RX PLLpower ONpower ONpower OFF
RX and TX audio pathspower ONpower OFFpower OFF
RF TX (and PA, when enabled)power ONpower OFFpower OFF
• Inactive mode: with the exception of the microcontroller
interface, all circuits are powered-down. The crystal
reference oscillator, the output clock buffer, the voltage
regulator and the voltage doubler can be disabled
separately. To reduce microcontroller current
consumption, the crystal frequency to the clock output
canbedivided by 128. A low current consumption mode
for the crystal oscillator can be programmed.
Latch memory is maintained in all modes. Blocks that are
powered are shown in Table 1 per operating mode.
The crystal oscillator, the clock output buffer, the voltage
reference adjustment, the power amplifier, the voltage
doubler, the earpiece, the hard limiter and the ALC can be
activated separately. Blocks that can be activated in each
mode are shown in Table 2.

7.1.3CURRENT CONSUMPTION
The control bit values for selection of each mode and typical current consumption for the modes are shown in Table 3.
When clock out is activated there is an extra power demand proportional to the programmed output level (see Table 4
for examples). When bit Xtal high = 0 (oscillator is in low current consumption mode), the crystal in use must have losses
less than 20 Ω to ensure oscillator start-up.

7.2FM receiver
The FM receiver (see Fig.3) has a single frequency conversion architecture with integrated image rejection mixer that
makes an external RF filter unnecessary. The Side Band Select (SBS) feature allows choice of frequency for RXLO to
be in or out of the ISM band allowing use of the same IC type for both base station and handset. IF channel filtering
(a compromise between price and performance) can be implemented simply using two or three external 10.7 MHz filters.
The integrated FM PLL demodulator with limiter decreases significantly the number of pins and external components
required.

7.2.1DATA COMPARATOR
The data comparator is an inverting hysteresis
comparator. An external bandpass filter is connected
between pins DETO and DATI (AC-coupled). The
open-collectoroutputiscurrent limited to controltheoutput
signal slew rate. An external resistor of 180 kΩ should be
connected between pin DATO and VCC. An external
capacitor in parallel with this resistor will reduce the slew
rate.

7.3Transmitter
The transmitter architecture is of the direct modulation
type. The transmit VCO can be frequency modulated by
speech or data (see Fig.4). An amplifier sums the
modulating signal with the data TX signal before the VCO.
Frequency control is affected by integrated variable
capacitance diodes. To obtain the correct frequency,
external inductors in series with the bonding wires and
leadframe are required. The power amplifier is capable of
driving a 50 Ω load. The level of the output signal PAO is
programmed with two bits via the serial bus interface.

7.4Synthesizer
The crystal local oscillator and reference divider (see
Fig.5) provide the reference frequency for the RX and TX
PLLs. The 10-bit reference divider is programmed with
respect to the crystal frequency and the desired RX and
TX frequencies. The microcontroller operating frequency
of 4.096 MHz is derived from a 16.384 MHz crystal
frequency. The clock divider ratio can be programmed to
1, 2, 2.5, 4 or to 128; ratio 128 is chosen in sleep mode to
save current in the microcontroller section. Clock output
(pin CLKOUT) is an emitter follower output.
The 16-bit TX counter is programmed for the desired
transmit channel frequency. Similarly, the 16-bit RX
counter is programmed for the desired local oscillator
frequency.Thedividercounter comprises a 6-bit prescaler
with division ratios (R) from 64 to 127, and a 10-bit CMOS
divider with division ratios (C) from 8 to 1023. The full
counter provides division ratios from 512 to 65535.
Settings of RX and TX counters are calculated as follows:
C = int
M
-----64
R=M−C×64
(where M is the division ratio between VCO frequency and
the reference frequency).

VCOs and variable capacitance diodes are integrated.
Resonance inductors are shared between bonding wires,
leadframe of the package and external inductors. Costs
can be reduced by etching external inductors directly onto
the printed-circuit board.
An on-chip selectable voltage doubler is provided to
enable a larger tuning range of both VCOs. The phase
detectors have current drive type outputs with selection
possibilities between 400 and 800 µA.

7.5Receiver baseband
This section covers the RX audio path from pins RXAI to
EARO (see Fig.6). The RXAI input signal is AC-coupled.
The microcontroller sets the value of the RX gain in
32 linear steps of 0.5 dB. The RX baseband has a mute
function and an expander with characteristics as shown in
Fig.7.
For audio level adjustment and, potentially for software
volume control, setting the RX gain provides a dynamic
range of 31 dB. This is achieved by the expander slope
that multiplies the RX gain by a factor of two for each gain
step thus giving 1 dB steps measured at the earpiece
amplifier output.

EXPANDER
RX MUTE
The earpiece amplifier is a rail-to-rail inverting operational
amplifier. The non-inverting input is connected to the
internal reference voltage at pin VB. Software volume
control on the earpiece amplifier is achieved by using an
integrated switched feedback resistor R
. The volume

control tuning range is 14 dB. Hardware volume control is
achieved by switching externally the earpiece feedback
