PRODUCT SUMMARY

SKY74068-11: Dual-Band, Dual-Mode Transmitter for CDMA,

AMPS, and PCS Mobile Handset Applications
Applications Description
• Dual-band, dual-mode handsets The SKY74068-11 transmitter is a highly integrated device for
dual-band Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA) handsets in the
• Cellular and PCS band phones cellular CDMA, Advanced Mobile Phone System (AMPS), and
− CDMA and AMPS modes in the cellular band Personal Communications System (PCS) modes.
− CDMA mode in the PCS band
The device requires a minimum number of external components
to complete a CDMA radio subsystem. Included on-chip are the
Features baseband filter, direct upconversion In-Phase and Quadrature (I/Q)
mixers, variable gain power amplifier (PA) drivers, a fully
• Low power consumption in all operating modes integrated Voltage Controlled Oscillator (VCO) with Local Oscillator
• Direct upconversion architecture (LO) generation blocks, and a dual-mode fractional-N/integer-N
• Device controlled using a three-wire read/write serial bus Phase Locked Loop (PLL).
interface with independent supply voltage External components needed for operation include bias resistors,
• Baseband RC filter to reject receive band noise bypass capacitors, and passives to comprise the PLL loop filter.
• Fully integrated VCO with auto-tuning The signal enters the chip as an analog baseband I/Q signal. It is
filtered by the baseband filter and upconverted to the desired RF
• Dual-mode fractional-N/integer-N PLL transmit frequency. The signal is amplified by one of two
• Variable gain PA drivers upconverters, depending on whether the chip is operating in
• Differential cellular driver output matched to 200 Ω cellular or PCS mode. The resulting signal is fed through the
appropriate PA driver stage to provide variable output power and
• Single-ended PCS driver output matched to 50 Ω to drive the external PA. The signal is then filtered by an external
• Transmit power control with >85 dB dynamic range Surface Acoustic Wave (SAW) filter and sent to the PA to obtain
• Low current consumption at low transmit power minimizes the final rated power.
current consumption and noise A functional block diagram for the SKY74068-11 is shown in
• Hardware TX_ENABLE for gated mode operation Figure 1.
• RFLGA™ (32-pin, 5 x 5 x 1 mm) Pb-free (MSL3, 260 °C per
JEDEC J-STD-020) package with downset paddle

Skyworks offers lead (Pb)-free, RoHS (Restriction of

Hazardous Substances) compliant packaging.
