3. TECHNICAL BRIEF
3.1 TX module (SKY77517/SKY77518, U401)
The SKY77517 is a Transmit and receive front-end-module (FEM) with Integrated Power Amplifier
Control (iPAC) for dual-band cellular handsets comprising GSM850 and PCS1900 operation.
Designed in a low profile, compact form factor, the SKY77517 offers a complete Transmit VCO-to-
Antenna and Antenna-to-Receive SAW filter solution. The FEM also supports class 12 General Packet
Radio Service (GPRS) multi-slot operation.
The module consists of a GSM850 PA block and a PCS1900 PA block, impedance-matching circuitry
for 50 ohm input and output impedances, TX harmonics filtering, high linearity and low insertion loss
PHEMT RF switches, diplexer and a Power Amplifier Control (PAC) block with internal current sense
resistor. A custom BiCMOS integrated circuit provides the internal PAC function and decoder circuitry
to control the RF switches. The two Heterojunction Bipolar Transistor (HBT) PA blocks are fabricated
onto a single Gallium Arsenide (GaAs) die. One PA block supports the GSM850 band and the other
PA block supports the PCS 1900 band. Both PA blocks share common power supply pads to distribute
current. The output of each PA block and the outputs to the two receiver pads are connected to the
antenna pad through PHEMT RF switches and a diplexer. The GaAs die, PHEMT die, Silicon (Si) die
and passive components are mounted on a multi-layer laminate substrate. The assembly is
encapsulated with plastic overmold.
Band selection and control of transmit and receive modes are performed using two external control
pads. Refer to the functional block diagram in Figure 3.1 below. The band select pad (BS) selects
between GSM and PCS modes of operation. The transmit enable (TX_EN) pad controls receive or
transmit mode of the respective RF switch (TX = logic 1). Proper timing between transmit enable
(TX_EN) and Analog Power Control (VRAMP) allows for high isolation between the antenna and
TX_VCO while the VCO is being tuned prior to the transmit burst.
The SKY77517 is compatible with logic levels from 1.2V to VCC for BS and TX_EN pads, depending
on the level applied to the VLOGIC pad. This feature provids additional flexibility for the designer in the
selection of FEM interface control logic.
The SkY77518 is Txmodule for GSM900/DCS1800 dual-band. Every function and logic is equal tom
the SKY77517.
