  • Page 19: Baseband Overview

    BASEBAND OVERVIEW BASEBAND OVERVIEW 6.1 Introduction The main Baseband circuitry is located with the RF circuits on the Main PCB, while the baseband sub-circuits, comprising keys and LCD backlights, are located on the Keypad PCB. A metallised plastic chassis is used to separate the Main and the Keypad PCBs. The continuous chassis design is important for EMC purposes.
  • Page 20 BASEBAND OVERVIEW 6.2.1 Keypad The Keypad has a 5 x 5 matrix in rows and columns, allowing 25 keys to be scanned. Each row has a built-in pull-up resistor and the column line outputs are selected low. On a key press, the row input is pulled low by the corresponding column generating a keypad interrupt.

    BASEBAND OVERVIEW 6.2.6 Real Time Clock The Real Time Clock (RTC) and Alarm function is provided by U604 running at 32,768 MHz. It interfaces to the CPU via a four serial lines: CE (chip enable), SCLK (serial clock), SI (serial input) and SO (serial output). To maintain power to the clock when the main battery is removed, a small rechargeable back-up battery (VBACKUP) is used.
  • Page 23 BASEBAND OVERVIEW 6.2.8 Speaker Because Vega runs from a 2.7 V supply, a low impedance (dynamic) speaker must be used. The GSM standard requires that the receive audio frequency response in Handheld use must fit within the mask shown below. GD90 is designed to meet Handheld requirements with a type 1 artificial ear.
  • Page 24 BASEBAND OVERVIEW 6.2.9 Buzzer The volume level of the buzzer is defined by the 6 bit PWM register setting in GEMINI I/O. The buzzer tone is then superimposed on this level using software. Timer 1 in GEMINI is used to time the period between switching the buzzer on and off to make the tone. For more complex buzzer ringing tones, the buzzer volume level can also be altered after each time-out of Timer 1.

    GEMINI 7.2.3 Memory Interface The memory interface allows the 32 bit CPU to access 16 and 8 bit devices, and allows the addition of wait states to memory access. The memory interface allows between 0 and 7 wait states to be added. The ROM area is hardware write protected, a FLASH write enable bit in the ROM wait state configuration register can be used to enable write access the ROM area.

    POWER SUPPLIES POWER SUPPLIES 9.1 Introduction This section describes the Power Supply Unit (PSU) used on the GD90 Main PCB and the method by which it is controlled. The Battery life during GSM1800 operation benefits from lower transmit power and higher PA efficiency and is therefore more efficient than when operating in GSM900.
  • Page 33: Power-Down

    POWER SUPPLIES 9.3.2 Power-up Sequence The power-up sequence can be initiated by pressing the power key, or by applying a power source to the EXT_PWR signal line. Both enable the linear regulators and the CPU becomes active. The CPU must then check the battery condition; if the phone is not required to power-down or sleep immediately, the result must be OK or LOW.
  • Page 34: Power Management

    POWER SUPPLIES 9.5 Power Management The power supply circuit supplies regulated power to the base-band parts, controls battery charging and monitors battery usage. The Power Management section consists of five parts as follows: Power Source. Power On/Off Control & Power Source Failure. Voltage Regulation.
