Dual 10-Bit Tx DAC and Transmit Path
The dual 10-bit digital-to-analog converters (Tx DAC)
operate with clock speeds up to 11MHz. The Tx DAC
digital inputs, D0–D9, are multiplexed on a single 10-bit
bus. The voltage reference determines the Tx path full-
scale voltage at IDP, IDN and QDP, QDN analog out-
puts. See the Reference Configurations section for
setting reference voltage. Each Tx path output channel
integrates a lowpass filter tuned to meet the TD-SCDMA
spectral mask requirements.
The TD-SCDMA filters are tuned for 1.32MHz cutoff fre-
quency and > 55dB image rejection at fIMAGE =
4.32MHz, fOUT = 800kHz, and fCLK = 5.12MHz. See
Figure 4 for an illustration of the filter frequency response.
Buffer amplifiers follow the TD-SCDMA filters. The amplifi-
er outputs (IDN, IDP, QDN, QDP) are biased at an
adjustable common-mode DC level and designed to
drive a differential input stage with ≥ 70kΩ input imped-
ance. This simplifies the analog interface between RF
