Description

The W3011 1 GHz Quadrature Modulator is a monolithic integrated circuit that provides direct modulation of an RF carrier by I & Q baseband inputs. It is particularly suited for use in mobile and handheld cellular telephones designed to the IS-136 (North American 824 MHz to 849 MHz), PDC (Japan RCR-STD27 889 MHz to 958 MHz), and other digital personal-communications standards. The circuit block diagram is shown in Figure 1. From two LO signals, LOL and LOH, the offset mixer produces an internal LO signal, which prevents the external VCOs from being pulled by the large transmitted signal. The phase shifter splits the LO signal into two carriers with 90° phase separation and equal amplitude. These signals are fed to the in-phase (I) and quadrature-phase (Q) double-balanced mixers. The resulting signals are summed and fed into the output amplifier. This amplifier can provide 0 dBm linear output power, minimum, into a 50 Ω load. The output power can be attenuated up to 50 dB by applying a control voltage to the APC input. Nominally, the output power is at maximum (+3 dBm) with V APC > 2.2 V, and at minimum (–50 dBm) with V APC < 0.8 V. A CMOS/TTL-compatible logic input allows the device to be put into a powerdown mode in which less than 10 µA of supply current is consumed.

4 Lucent Technologies Inc. Operating Ranges The W3011 operating ranges are shown in Table 3. Performance is not guaranteed over the full range of all conditions possible within this table. However, the table lists the ranges of external conditions in which the W3011 provides general functionality, which may be useful in specific applications, without risk of permanent damage. The conditions for guaranteed performance are described in Tables 4 and 5. Table 3. Operating Ranges

6 Lucent Technologies Inc. Explanation of Error Vector Magnitude (EVM) Testing Error vector magnitude (EVM) is estimated by feeding signals to the W3011 as described above in Table 5. A typical narrowband, sine-wave modulation output spectrum appears in Figure 3. –62 dBmU4 –70 dBmU3 –72 dBm –50 dBm USB 0 dBm Fc –40 dBm LSB –38 dBm –70 dBm –48 dBm –75 dBm –72 dBm –10 –20 –30 –40 –50 –60 –70 –80 fl = fQ = 80 kHz fLOL = 130 MHz fLOH = 1030 MHz MAGNITUDE (dBm) FREQUENCY (MHz) Figure 3 . W3011 Sine-Wave Modulation Output Spectrum Data from this spectrum is used to estimate EVM by the formula: + 10 P(L4)/20 + 10 P(L3)/20 + 10 P(L2)/20 + 10 P(LSB)/20 + 10 P(U2)/20

10 P(U3)/2 0

+ 10 P(U4)/20 + 10 P(U5)/20 ]/10 P(USB)/20 The data presented in the spectrum above would yield: 12589e–6 + 3162e–6 + 251e–6 + 316e–6 + 794e–6]/1000e–3 = 2.18% This approximates worst-case digital modulation results, because the sine-wave modulation estimate assumes all spurious outputs are in phase and adds their magnitudes as scalars. In addition, this estimate includes full- amplitude measurements of spurious peaks that would appear in adjacent and alternate channels, where a receiver would otherwise provide attenuation. The L3 third-order intermodulation peak and LSB (lower sideband) are normally the unwanted output frequencies that dominate the EVM estimate.

8 Lucent Technologies Inc. Offset Mixer (continued) W3011 Using Offset Mixer If the W3011 offset mixer is required, two VCOs must be connected (see Figure 6). A low-frequency (VHF) oscillator may be dc-coupled to either pin 13 (LOLN) or pin 14 (LOLP) if the VCO contains a dc-blocking capacitor at its output. Otherwise, use a low-impedance series capacitor between the VCO output and the LOL input. The other LOL pin must be dc-grounded (no external capacitor for the grounded pin). As shown in Figure 1, there is a 50 Ω termination resistor on chip, connected between pins 13 and 14. In the same way, as shown in Figure 6, one of the pins 11 (LOHN) or 12 (LOHP) must be connected to dc ground. The other pin is connected to a high-frequency (UHF) VCO, using either dc coupling (if the VCO contains a dc-blocking capacitor at its output) or a low-impedance series-coupling capacitor. There is also a 50 Ω termination resistor on chip connected between pins 11 and 12. When the offset mixer is used, it is necessary to filter the offset mixer output signal with a parallel-tuned LC filter between pins 9 and 10. The resonant frequency of this filter should be approximately the center of the transmit RF band (for example, about 920 MHz for PDC 800). The filter should be adjusted for lowest EVM at RFOUT.
