6.1 Receiver Operation
The Aero+ transceiver uses a low-IF receiver architecture that allows for the on-chip integration of
the channel selection filters.
The Si4200 integrates three differential-input LNAs. The LNA amplifies the RF signal after selection
by the T/R switch and RF SAW filter before the signal enters the first mixer section. The LNA inputs
are matched to the 200Ω balanced output SAW filters through external LC matching networks.
A mixer down converts the RF signal to a 100 kHz intermediate frequency (IF) with the RFLO from
the Si4134T frequency synthesizer. The RFLO frequency is between 1737.8 and 1989.9 MHz, and
is divided by two in the Si4200 for GSM850 and EGSM 900 modes. The mixer output is amplified
with an analog programmable gain amplifier (PGA), which dynamic range is 16 dB and gain step is 4
dB.
The quadrature IF signal is digitized with high-resolution A/D converters (ADCs). The Si4201 down
converts the ADC output to base band with a digital 100 kHz quadrature LO signal. The digital
output is scaled with a digital PGA, which dynamic range is 63 dB and gain step is 1 dB. DACs drive
a differential analog signal onto the RXIP, RXIN, RXQP and RXQN pins to interface to standard
analog-input base band ICs.

6.2 Transmitter Operation
The transmitter chain converts differential IQ base band signals to a suitable format for transmission
by a power amplifier.
The transmit (TX) section consists of an I/Q base band up converter, an offset phase-locked loop
(OPLL) and two 50 Ω output buffers that can drive external power amplifiers (PA), one for the EGSM
and one for the DCS 1800 and PCS 1900 band. A quadrature mixer up converts the differential in-
phase (TXIP, TXIN) and quadrature (TXQP, TXQN) signals with the IFLO to generate an IF signal
which is filtered and used as the reference input to the OPLL. The Si4134T generates the IFLO
frequency between 766 and 896 MHz. The IFLO is divided by two to generate the quadrature LO
signals for the quadrature modulator, resulting in an IF between 383 and 448 MHz.
The OPLL consists of a feedback mixer, a phase detector, a loop filter, and a fully integrated
TXVCO. The TXVCO centres between the DCS 1800 and PCS 1900 bands, and its output is divided
by two for the GSM850 and E-GSM 900 bands. The Si4134T generates the RFLO frequency
between 1272 and 1483 MHz. To allow a single VCO to be used for the RFLO, high-side injection is
used for the E-GSM 900 bands, and low-side injection is used for the DCS 1800 and PCS 1900
bands.
The RF signal is then amplified by PA (RFMD3140) and power control loop to the assigned power
level within the burst.

6.3.2 Power Amplifier
The PA, which integrates the power level control circuit, is controlled by signal BSW, PCLON and
RAMP. The purpose of the BSW is for band- select control. The RAMP signal is for power level
control. The PCLON signal is for power saving control. As the supply requirements, the supply
voltage is 3.6V and the control loop required voltage is 2.8V.
The following formula provides the required ramping voltage at the flat portion of bursts:
Vramp= 0.12+SF*0.002 (V), where SF: Scaling Factor

6.3.3 Transceiver HD155165BP
The HD155165BP is a highly integrated RF transceiver IC for GSM850, GSM900, DCS1800and
PCS1900 quad-band cellular systems. The HD155165BP incorporates four RF low-noise amplifiers,
direct conversion mixers, a programmable gain amplifier with multistage filtering and DC offset
correction, fully integrated VCOs, RF/IF synthesizers, and a low-noise offset PLL transmitter. The
HD155165BP includes state machine control serial programming. All functions operate down to 2.7V
and are housed in a 57-pin BGA package. Hence the HD155165BP can form a small size
transceiver handset for quad band.
6.3.4 SAW Filter
The BPF201, BPF202 and BPF203 are the front-end filtering device on receiving path, for GSM,
DCS and PCS bands, respectively. They also provide mode conversion mechanism (unbalance to
balance).

7 Logic / Control Introduction
A38 consists of GSM chipsets --ABB, DBB, PA, transceiver, filters and plenty of peripheries. They
can provide wireless communication solutions for any products that have requirements of voice/data
transmission, particularly portable devices or handheld equipments.
In addition, A38 integrates other peripheries such as polyphony chip that plays melodies, display
with 65K-color C-STN LCD, LEDs for keypads, vibrating motor, memory device and charging etc.
The baseband part consists of TI’s GSM digital signal processor (Calypso-) with the micro-controller
unit and TI’s analog device (IOTA) that performs the interface and processing of voice signals,
interface and processing of base band in-phase (I) and quadrature (Q) signals. Moreover, the base
band part includes a flash device used for software program code and a SRAM for software program
execution.
Baseband provides functions like UART, GPIO, voice, SIM, keypads, memory interface, low dropout
regulator and synchronous clock to the peripheral chip for timing reference…etc. These features can
certainly meet most customers’ design requirement and simplify the developing process for a variety
of portable devices
In the following sections, we’ll give the detailed descriptions for each baseband chip component, and
then we’d continue to emphasize the introductions to the specific periphery circuits that interface.

ARMI/O consists of:
16 general-purpose I/O pins.
10 special I/O pins are dedicated for keyboard connection: 5 output (column) x 5
input (row).
special I/O pins are dedicated for buzzer & light control.
general purpose I/O pins can be configured as input or output pin.
light and buzzer are controlled by PWM.
Two registers are used to define power level:
Light level register: 6 bit and allow to program up to 64 levels.
Buzzer level register: 6 bit and allow to program up to 64 levels.

For uplink path, the analog voice signals are fed into IOTA from the microphone differential input
and then transmitted to Calypso DSP via the voice-band series port (VSP). After being modulated,
the signals go through the uplink I/Q path to the RF transceiver and transmitted via the antenna.
The microphone circuit is biased from IOTA MICBIAS (2.0V). The bias circuit R162, R163, R164
mainly provides the optimal operation point for the microphone signals, MICIP and MICIN.

For downlink path, the signals received from the antenna are down-converted to I/Q signals and
then transmitted to Calypso DSP. After being demodulated, the signals are fed to IOTA via voice-
band interface and then amplified to drive the receiver.

The earphone Jack circuit is used either for the audio or the data service. The ACCESSORY_IN/IO6
will be pulled to low level when a headset, a data cable, is plugged in EARPHONE_IN will be
recognize whether the headset or the data cable is present. A Send End key on the headset is used
to answer/hang up the calls; it connects to ROW2 for keyboard debouncing detection.

BATTERY CONNECTOR
The charging circuit of A38 is composed of charger over-voltage protection circuit and main charging
circuit that are controlled by IOTA. A38’s charging device is the standard 5.4V/0.7A charger
The group of BQ250, R258, DZ250 C255and R252 compose the charger over-voltage protection
circuit. The cut-off voltage is 6.8V. While the charger voltage is over 6.8V, the circuit will turn off
U251 by latching U251.G2 to stop charging. F250 is a 1A fuse to assure charging current under
l i m i t .
The normal charging operation theory is that IOTA monitors charger voltage via VCHG pin to decide
whether charger plug in or out, and control power P-MOSFET (U251) via ICTL pin. If the handset
enters charging mode, Calypso- will follow the charging algorithm to control charging circuit and
monitor charging current by detecting the terminal voltage drop of R256 (0.2 ohm). IOTA controlled
procedure is classified into two parts according to whether battery voltage is higher than 3.2V. IOTA
will execute pre-charge with 40mA to charge the battery via PCHG pin if the battery voltage is lower
than 3.2V. On the other hand, the system will precede normal charging task following by the
charging algorithm.
