Technical Description
Ericsson RF 3300 Block Diagram:
RF System Control
The access side of the digital baseband controller controls the overall radio system.
In both EDGE/GSM/GPRS and WCDMA air interface mode, the digital baseband controller
controls the radio system through a three-wire serial bus. The digital baseband controller
also manages PA band control and the antenna switch mechanism in the front end module.
The 26 MHz VCXO clock residing in the transceiver is turned on only when required and
initiated by the digital baseband controller.
The control flow for the RF system:
