S-GOLD3 Overview
2.1
Introduction
S-GOLD3
TM
is a GSM/EDGE single chip mixed signal baseband IC containing all analog and digital functionality
of a cellular radio. Additionally S-GOLD3
TM
provides multimedia extensions to enable today’s and future feature
phone applications. It is designed as a single chip solution, integrating the digital and mixed signal portions of the
base band in a 1.35V 90nm CMOS technology to meet the ever increasing demands of the GSM/EDGE cellular
subscriber market for feature rich and high performance terminals at low costs.
The Infineon Technologies’ DSP firmware and software modules for FR, HR, EFR and AMR-NB vocoding and
channel encoding allow short time to market. Additionally, the S-GOLD3
TM
supports multislot operation modes
HSCSD (up to class 10), GPRS for high speed data applications (up to class 12) and EGPRS (up to class 12)
without additional external hardware.
The processing within S-GOLD3
TM
is handled by an ARM926EJ-S CPU and a TEAKLite® DSP core.
The ARM926EJ-S is a powerful standard controller and particularly suited for wireless systems. It is supported by
a wide range of tools and application SW.
The TEAKLite® is an established DSP core for wireless applications with approved firmware for GSM/EDGE
signal processing.

Quad-Band E-GPRS Solution
Figure 2-1 E-GPRS Solution
In combination with Infineon Technologies’ SMARTi familiy RF ICs and an S/M-Power battery and power
management IC a complete 3 chip system solution is achieved, which results in extremely compact
implementation, very low power consumption and cost effective system performance.
A wide choice of communication interfaces allows complex data and multimedia system designs. Due to its flexible
interfaces S-GOLD3
TM
can be set up easily to control a wide variety of RF architectures.
