1.1 Purpose
This manual provides the information necessary to repair, calibration, description and download the
features of this model.
1.2 Regulatory Information
A. Security
Toll fraud, the unauthorized use of telecommunications system by an unauthorized part (for example,
persons other than your company’s employees, agents, subcontractors, or person working on your
company’s behalf) can result in substantial additional charges for your telecommunications services.
System users are responsible for the security of own system. There are may be risks of toll fraud
associated with your telecommunications system. System users are responsible for programming and
configuring the equipment to prevent unauthorized use. The manufacturer does not warrant that this
product is immune from the above case but will prevent unauthorized use of common-carrier
telecommunication service of facilities accessed through or connected to it.
The manufacturer will not be responsible for any charges that result from such unauthorized use.
B. Incidence of Harm
If a telephone company determines that the equipment provided to customer is faulty and possibly
causing harm or interruption in service to the telephone network, it should disconnect telephone service
until repair can be done. A telephone company may temporarily disconnect service as long as repair is
not done.
C. Changes in Service
A local telephone company may make changes in its communications facilities or procedure. If these
changes could reasonably be expected to affect the use of the this phone or compatibility with the network,
the telephone company is required to give advanced written notice to the user, allowing the user to take
appropriate steps to maintain telephone service.
D. Maintenance Limitations
Maintenance limitations on this model must be performed only by the manufacturer or its authorized agent.
The user may not make any changes and/or repairs expect as specifically noted in this manual. Therefore,
note that unauthorized alternations or repair may affect the regulatory status of the system and may void
any remaining warranty.

3.1 General Description of RF parts
The RF parts consists of a transmitter part,a receiver part,a synthesizer part,a voltage supply part,a
VCTCXO part. And the main RF Chipset CX74017[U603]is a single-chip dual-band transceiver for the
extended global system for mobile communication[E-GSM900MHz]/
Digital communication system[DCS1800MHz] voice and data transfer applications.
This device integrated a direct conversion receiver architecture, a transmitter based on a modulation loop
architecture and fractional-N synthesizer part with built in TXVCO and Local-VCO.
3.2 Receiver Part
The Receiver part in CX74017 contains all active circuits completely, full receiver chain with the
exception of discrete front-end RF SAW filters. The filtered and amplified signal is down converted in
the RF-mixer to the baseband output. The receiver path is supported by internal channel filtering.

A. RF Front End
RF front end consists of Antenna Switch(FL405), an integrated two saw filters,(FL601),dual band
LNAs integrated in transceiver.
The Received RF signals(GSM 925MHz ~ 960MHz, DCS 1805MHz ~ 1880MHz) are fed into the
antenna or Mobile switch. An antenna matching circuit is between the antenna and the mobile
switch. The Antenna Switch(FL600) is used to control the Rx and Tx paths. And, the input signals
VC1 and VC2 of a FL600 are directly connected to baseband controller to switch either Tx or Rx
path on. Ant S/W module(FL600) is an antenna switch module for dual band phone.
The logic and current is given below table 3-1.

The receiver part uses a low-IF receiver architecture that allows for the on-chip integration
of the channel selection filters, eliminating the external RF image reject filters and the IF
SAW filter required in conventional super-heterodyne architecture. The Receive part of
CX74017 integrates three differential input LNAs that are matched to the 200 Ohm
balanced-output SAW filters through external LC matching networks.
3. TECHNICAL BRIEF
- 17 -

In direct conversion receiver there is only one mixer down-converting received RF signal to BB signal
directly. The gain down converting mixer is 40dB at high gain mode and 22dB at low gain mode.
The Rx gain setting is done in the AGC algorithm. The nominal gain of the receiver is set as a
function of the expected signal strength at the antenna input so that a desired level is reached at the
Rx I/Q. 7 blocks in the receiver chain have variable gains, LNA, Mixer, LPF1, VGA1, gmC Filter,
Auxiliary gain control and VGA2. The gain settings can be adjustable via 3-wire bus control lines.
The baseband signals pass via integrated low-pass filters to the baseband A/D converters.
Theremainder of the channel filtering is performed by the baseband chipset. The demodulator
contains switches to maintain the sense of the baseband I/Q outputs with respect to the incoming RF
signal on both GSM900 and DCS1800.
Three correction loops ensure that DC offsets, generated in the CX74017, do not overload the
baseband chain at any point.
After compensation, the correction voltages are held on capacitors for the duration of the
receive slot(s). A rising edge on the RXEN signal, selected via the serial interface, placed the
DC compensation circuitry in the track mode.

The CX74017 includes a fully integrated UHF VCO with an on-chip LC tank.
A single sigma-delta fractional-N synthesizer can phase lock the local osillator used in both
transmit and receive path to a precision frequency reference input. Fractional-N operation offers
low phase noise and fast setting times, allowing for multiple slot applications such as GPRS.
The counter and mode settings of the synthesizer are also programmed via 3-wire interface.

3. TECHNICAL BRIEF

The Transmitter part contains CX74017 active parts, PAM and Antenna Switch.
The CX74017 active part consists of a vector modulator and offset phase-locked loop block(OPLL)
including down-converter, phase detector, loop filter and dual band transmit VCO which can operate
at either final RF output frequency. The RF GMSK outputs from the transmit VCO are fed directly to
the RF power amplifiers. The peak output power and the profile of the transmitted burst are
controlled by means of a closed feedback loop. A dual band directional coupler is used to sample the
RF output from either PA. The PA outputs from the directional coupler pass to the antenna connector
via Antenna Switch.

3. TECHNICAL BRIEF

The baseband converter(BBC) within the GSM chipset generates I and Q baseband signals for the
transmit vector modulator. The modulator provides more than 40dBc of carrier and unwanted side-
band rejection and produces a GMSK modulated signal. The baseband software is able to cancel out
differential DC offsets in the I/Q baseband signals caused by imperfections in the D/A converters.
The TX-Modulator implements a quadrature modulator. The IF-frequency input signal is split into two
precise orthogonal carriers, which are multiplied by the baseband modulation signal IT/ITX and
QT/QTX. It is used as reference signal for the OPLL.
A. IF Modulator
The offset mixer down converts the feedback Tx RF signal using LO to generate a IF modulating
signal. The IF signal goes via external passive bandpass filter to one port of the phase detector.
The other side of the phase detector input is LO signal. The phase detector generates an error
current proportional to the phase difference between the modulated signal from the offset mixer
and the reference signal from the LO. The error current is filtered by a second order low-pass filter
to generate an output voltage which depends on the GMSK modulation and the desired channel
frequency. This voltage controls the transmit VCO such that the VCO output signal, centered on
the correct RF channel, is frequency modulated with the original GMSK data. The OPLL acts as a
tracking narrowband band pass filter tuned to the desired channel frequency. This reduces the
wideband noise floor of the modulation and up-conversion process and provides significant
filtering of spurious products.
B. OPLL
The CX77315[U601] is designed in a compact form factor for quad-band cellular handsets comprising
GSM850/900, DCS1800, and PCS1900 operation. The PAM also supports Class 12 General Packet
Radio Service(GPRS) multi-slot operation. The module consists of separate GSM850/900 PA and
DCS1800/PCS1900 PA blocks, impedance-matching circuitry for 50 ohm input and output
impedances, and a Power Amplifier Control (PAC) block with and internal current-sense resistor.
