BB5 Engine Structure

Single Engine Structure

ENOS = EPOC(Symbian OS) + NOS(Nokia OS)
ENOS based products -> 3650, 6600, 9210 …
EPOC and NOS operate mostly independent
Both operating systems are executed on the same core – they use the same common memory devices and resources
CMT-APE (NOS-EPOC) communication based on Phonet protocol
On execution NOS tasks have always higher priority
NOS is mainly focused on cellular modem activities (RF, powers, …)
EPOC is mainly focused on user interface activities





Dual Engine Structure

Dual engine products –> 6630, 9500, 6680 & 6681
Both operating systems are physically separated on different cores – they have own memory devices and resources
CMT-APE (NOS-EPOC) communication based on Phonet via physically bus (X-BUS)
NOS is totally focused on cellular modem activities
EPOC is totally focused on user interface activities

Clocking




Powering Up



Power Up Steps

After Power On 
RETU activates Sleep Clock, VANA, VIO, VR1 and VDRAM
Voltage @ Retu RSTX pin will then enable TAHVO ASIC
TAHVO enable VCORE (RAP3G) and its internal oscillator to drive VCOREA (OMAP)
VCTCXO regulator is set on and RFClk (38.4 MHz) is started by RETU regulator
RETU release PURX after 16 ms after RFClk is stable
2.4 MHz SMPS clock for TAHVO is produced
After PURX is released and 2 rising edge of 2.4 synchronization clock is detected, TAHVO will use it to drive VCOREA
System is up and running
Software is used to switch on other regulators

Product Specific Circuitries

Front Camera
The front camera is controlled and its data is collected by OMAP
The I/O voltage of OMAP is 1.8V, and the one of the camera is 2.8V;therefore a level shifter is needed
The camera is powered with two different voltages from LDO (Low-dropout voltage) regulators:
VCAM 1.5V for camera digital circuits, and sensor A/D-converter
VCAM2 2.8V for camera I/O, and sensor photo diode

a video clip is being recorded
a picture is taken

And Now We Talk About 6680 Rf

Power Control Loop – WCDMA Transmitter 1/2

TXC is used to drive the VGA which is used as the “main power controller”
The PA outside is just for the final setting of the outgoing power
WCDMA uses closed loop SW power control, where the Base Station will provide information for the terminal to increase or decrease its power by 1 or 2 dB steps

Power Detection: It is required that terminal must be able to measure its output power in high power level. The power detector measure it and fed a voltage (WTXDET) back to RETU to undergo AD conversion
Output power needs to be limited to +21 dBm

Isolator: It passes RF power only in one direction. Without it, RF power may leak in and affect the output of the detection circuit, resulting in error in the power control

Power Control Loop – WCDMA Transmitter 2/2

SMPS: The supply voltage of the PA and limits the lowest supply voltage to 1.5V. At highest power levels the SMPS output settles nominally to 3.2V
The supply voltage and the reference current lines (DAC 101 and DAC 201) are used to set the PA to distortion-free gain according to PA vendor's specification; this is essential in WCDMA

Synthesizers

Phase Lock Loop (PLL

The output of the phase det depend on the phase of the measured frequency compared to the phase of the reference frequency
PLL charge pump charges or discharges the integrated capacitor in the loop filter based on the output of the phase det (comparator)

Key Components 0f WCDMA Receiver
Why do we need Additional Filtering?
This SAW filter is to attenuate the Tx signal which is leaking through the duplex filter and amplified by the LNA
Why do we use duplexer instead of antenna switch?
This is because Tx and Rx are functioning in continuous mode in WCDMA
What is the use of AGC stage?
This stage is used to maintain the voltage swing at the AD converter in BB at an adequate level

Power Control Loop – GSM Transmitter

Power Detector Circuitry in PA gives a DC value proportional to the output power
DC level is feedback to the negative input of ERROR amplifier in VINKU
The DC level is then compare with the TXC reference signal
The output of the ERROR amplifier is then fed to a buffer amplifier which drive the VGA

Note: TXC is obtained from the
network for power level control
