As initial guidance for the settings of the DC offset and blanking system, the following two setups are presented. Both are
acceptable for GPRS operation. The 160usec option represents a minimum startup time. The 210usec startup option will min-
imize any DC errors due to initial thermal drift.
Transmit Information
Transmit Turn-On Sequence
The following diagram documents the transmit turn-on sequence when using the RF6001 with the RF3146 power amplifier.
The sequence is initiated by taking TXST signal high. The RF6001 requires 140
μs worst case for all calibrations and PLL lock to
take place. Once this is complete, the PA will be turned on by taking TXEN high (TXENU=140
μs). The PA ramp should start
about 2
μs later for optimal switching spectrum performance of the RF3146 (PAT=142μs).
There is a programming feature within the RF6001 to provide real-time control of the front-end transmit/receive (T/R) switch.
The T/R switch must be turned off during the prior bust to ensure the ETSI time-mask is not violated. This feature is invoked by
setting TRD bit high. The GPO1, GPO2 and GPO3 outputs of the RF6001 will be set to values programmed into TRDC_TX(2:0)
bits when TXST is taken high. These values should turn off the T/R switch for the given transmit state. After time TXENU, the
GPO outputs of the RF6001 will revert back to the originally programmed states defined in SDI bits GPO1, GPO2 and GPO3.
