description

The TRF3040 is an integrated transmit modulator/synthesizer circuit suitable for 900-MHz analog and digital cellular telephones. It consists of a transmit intermediate frequency (TXIF) synthesizer and oscillator, a single-sideband suppressed carrier (SSBSC) converter, a direct conversion I/Q modulator, a variable gain amplifier (VGA) with a power amplifier (PA) driver, a main channel fractional-N synthesizer, an auxiliary channel synthesizer, a crystal oscillator reference buffer, and clock buffers in a small surface-mount package. Very few external components are required. The TXIF synthesizer produces the offset signal, TXIF, needed to translate the external local oscillator (TXLO) signal to the correct transmission frequency. The TXIF_VCO (voltage controlled oscillator) can operate from 90 MHz to 200 MHz, depending on the component values chosen for the external tank circuit. The TXLO signal may be differential or single-ended input. The direct conversion I/Q modulator places the modulation signal (p/4-DQPSK, FM) directly on top of the transmit carrier frequency. The VGA has an output range of –41 dBm to 9 dBm into a 200-W differential load. The balanced output signal simplifies the board layout making it easier to meet isolation requirements.

The TRF3040 operates using CLOCK, DATA, and STROBE pins of the serial data interface. The serial programming data is structured into 24-bit words, of which one or four bits are dedicated address bits. Figure 4 shows the format and the content of each word. Table 4 lists the symbols, number of bits, and the function for each word used in the standard programming mode (ALT = 0). Similarly, the alternate programming mode (ALT = 1) is described in Figure 5 and Table 5. Figure 6 shows the timing diagram for the serial input. When the STROBE goes low, the signal on the DATA input is clocked into a shift register on the positive edges of the CLOCK. When the STROBE goes high, depending on the 1 or 4 address bit(s), data is latched into different working or temporary registers. To fully program the modulator/synthesizer, five words must be sent: G, D, C, B, and A. The E-word is for testing purposes only. The A-word contains new data for the main divider. The A-word is loaded into the working registers only when a main divider synchronization signal is active to avoid phase jumps when reprogramming the main divider. The data for CN and PR is stored by the B-word in temporary registers. The data in these temporary registers is loaded into the work registers together with the A-word. This avoids false main-divider input when the A-word is loaded. The value of the auxiliary divider ratio, NA, is defined by a 13-bit field, and the operational mode of the main synthesizer is determined by the least significant bit (LSB) of the C-word: Standard mode: ALT = 0 Alternate mode: ALT = 1 The content of the D-word defines the operation of the reference divider. The OR function of bits EA and EM enables the buffer/amplifier input stage. The reference divider ratio is determined by the value of NR. The main and auxiliary synthesizer sections can individually select a reference postscaler division of 1, 2, 4, or 8 by selecting fields RSM and RSA, respectively. The G-word programs all other functions: VGA power control, ÷ N (TXIF loop), SE (TXIF synthesizer loop enable), AMPS and DAMPS modes, and sleep mode. The E-word is for testing purposes only and is reset when programming the D-word.

PRINCIPLES OF OPERATION 1234 main divider – fractional-N sidebands and compensation (continued) The fundamental area mean value of the fractional-N portion of the main PHP charge-pump waveform was calculated to be 0.018268 pSA. If the fundamental area of the fractional-N portion of the main PHP charge-pump waveform uses the actual pulse widths calculated in step 1 in place of the average pulse width, the fractional-N main PHP areas are as follows: Frac Area-LWR = 63.83 ps x 0.288 mA = 0.018383 (E-12 second × Amps), FracArea-UPR = 63.031 ps x 0.288 mA = 0.018383 (E-12 second × Amps). The actual areas under the fractional-N portion of the main PHP waveform require slight modification in the charge-pump current. The variation of CN required for area equalization can be determined using a simple ratio form: CN LWR /C0043 FracArea–AVG FracArea–LWR /C0032CN AVG /C00430.018268 0.018383 /C0032128 /C0043127, CN UPR /C0043 FracArea–AVG FracArea–UPR /C0032CN AVG /C00430.018268 0.018153 /C0032128 /C0043129. Therefore, CN values would vary from 127–129 over the VCO frequency range of 1958.19–1983.15 MHz for optimum fractional-N sideband suppression. Due to component and circuit tolerances, additional deviations in CN may be appropriate. phase detectors The main and auxiliary synthesizer sections (see Figure 13) incorporate dual D-type flip-flop phase-frequency detectors (PFD). The PFD has gain with phase error over a range of +/–2p and exhibits infinite pull-in range. Dead-band compensation about zero phase error is provided by forcing the sourcing and sinking charge pumps to have a minimum on-time rate of 1/f Ref when the loop is operating in a locked condition. The phase detectors can be programmed for polarity sense. Normally, external system VCOs have a positive slope control voltage-frequency characteristic. Some VCOs have a negative slope characteristic. The TRF3040 main and auxiliary phase detectors can be programmed for use with positive or negative slope VCOs using the MCP and ACP fields, respectively, in the B word (EPM mode). For positive slope VCOs: MCP = ACP = 0; for negative slope VCOs: MCP = ACP = 1.

SLWS057 – AUGUST 1999 37POST OFFICE BOX 655303 • DALLAS, TEXAS 75265 PRINCIPLES OF OPERATION transmit intermediate frequency (TXIF) synthesizer The transmit intermediate frequency (TXIF) PLL portion of the TRF3040 design consists of the following functional blocks: a reference oscillator, a TXIF phase detector, a divide-by-N (÷N), a TXIF_VCO, and an external passive loop filter. reference oscillator The reference crystal oscillator (XTAL OSC) generates the internal reference signal INR. This signal is directly fed to the phase detector of the PLL in the transmit modulator section and to three other different buffers. The first buffer feeds the reference divider of the main phase detector and the auxiliary phase detector. The second buffer, MCLK, is used to provide a clock for external digital circuitry, which is always on. The third buffer, RCLK, is used as a clock for the external circuitry that is used in standby and transmit modes. TXIF phase detector and charge pump The phase comparator compares the output of the divider with the reference oscillator. It provides an output proportional to the phase difference between the divided down TXIF_VCO and the reference. This output is then filtered and used as the control voltage input to the TXIF_VCO. The phase detector is a Gilbert multiplier cell type, with a linear output from 0 to p ( p /2 ± p /2), followed by a charge pump. The charge-pump peak output current could be programmable to 6.4 mA using an external resistor. TXIF lock detect A lock detect signal is provided and ANDed together with lock detect signals from both the main channel synthesizer and auxiliary synthesizer. While in standby mode, the lock detect signal is forced to a valid lock state so that the lock detect signal will indicate when the main and auxiliary phase detectors achieve phase lock. divide-by-N The ÷N is a 2-bit programmable divider that can be configured for any integer division from 6 to 9. The field bits setting for this ÷N is described in Note 6. The divider converts the VCO output down to the reference frequency before feeding it into the phase comparator. TXIF_VCO The voltage controlled oscillator, TXIF_VCO, generates the transmit IF frequency, TXIF, between 90 MHz and 200 MHz. This TXIF_VCO is configured using an external parallel inductor and a dual common-cathode tuning-varactor diode. DC blocking capacitors are used to isolate the varactor control voltage from the VCO tank dc bias voltages. SSBSC converter and TXIF buffer The TXIF buffer provides isolation between the SSBSC converter and the TXIF_VCO output. The converter is an active Gilbert cell multiplier (matched pair) combined with two quadrature phase shift networks and a band-pass filter. The SSBSC converter rejects the unwanted upper sideband that would normally occur during the conversion process.
