RTR6300 Device Description
• Power supply voltage (2.7 to 3.0 V)
• Small thermally efficient package (48-pin BCC++)
The RTR6300 device is a highly integrated RF
device that incorporates a dual-band CDMA 1X
transmitter with a dual-band GSM/GPRS
RTR6300 GSM/GPRS Transceiver Section
transceiver. It derives its architecture from QCT’s
radioOne direct conversion devices for CDMA.
The RTR6300 device also has an integrated transceiver for GSM
bands for both GSM and GPRS modes. It contains a dual-band
GSM/GPRS translational loop transmitter, which consists of lowpass
filtering with DC offset correction circuitry, I/Q modulators and offset
phase locked loop (OPLL). The transmit signals are derived from the
baseband interface from the MSM6500 device. The signals are
modulated to IF via the I/Q modulators, then applied to the OPLL
where its output drives the GSM Power Amplifier (PA). The GSM
receiver contains two LNAs, two direct conversion mixers and lowpass
filtering. Also on chip are two UHF PLLs designed to support fast
channel acquisition for GPRS and 3GPP compress mode operation.
RTR6300 CDMA 1X Transmit Section
The RTR6300 device contains all the upconversion and modulation
functionality necessary for CDMA and FM mode phones operating in
cellular and PCS bands. This transmit chip consists of two I/Q
modulators, one for cellular and one for the PCS band. The baseband
I/Q input from the MSM directly modulates the cellular or PCS carrier
derived from the respective LO generation circuit.
Both the cellular and PCS output drive their own VGA with a gain
control range of 85 dB. A final cellular driver amplifier provides a
modulated RF output. To accommodate split band and filtering, the
PCS VGA drives two output amplifiers that can be selected
independently or simultaneously via an input selectable switch. All RF
outputs have fully integrated 50-ohm matching networks.
The RTR6300 device voltage range is from 2.7 to 3.3 V, which
provides operating compatibility for platforms utilizing a single-cell Li-
Ion battery design. Operating modes for the RTR6300 device are
controlled by the MSM6500 chip via the three-line SBI, and include
selective power-down and gain control for optimal power savings and
talk-time improvement. The RTR6300 device is fabricated on an
Integrated on the RTR6300 device is the receiver PLL, transmit PLL
and the entire transmit VCO, including resonant components. The VCO
drives the LO generation block, which in turn generates the required
local oscillator signal for all CDMA bands of operation.
advanced SiGe BiCMOS process, which accommodates both precision
high-frequency analog circuits and low-power CMOS functions, and is
provided in a 48BCC++ plastic package that includes an exposed
center ground slug for improved RF grounding, mechanical strength
and thermal continuity.
