    摘要: Process for controlling the switching of the data rate at a digital interface exchanging data and control messages between a Radio Frequency (RF) circuit and a digital circuit, comprising the steps of: setting by default the data rate to a low speed (LS) rate having a density presenting a first lobe being inferior to the frequency band considered in said RF circuit so as to prevent desensitization of the LNAs by the noise produced by said digital interface; storing the data and control messages message into a FIFO and monitoring the level of said FIFO; whenever the level of said FIFO reaches a predetermined threshold value, then controlling said interface to switch to a second high speed (HS) rate in order to flush said FIFO. In one embodiment, the LS frequency is set to a value of 832 MHz, thus preventing simultaneously desensitization of the GSM band and also the GPS band.

    摘要: A monolithic RF amplifier circuit (10) suitable for use in the 0.8-2 GHz frequency range comprises, on-chip (12'), a gateable oscillator (24) running at about 2-5 times the amplifier input frequency or higher, coupled to a rectifier (30) and a low pass filter (34) for producing a DC signal which is fed via a bias/gain control circuit (46) to a bias/gain inputs (56, 58) of one or more amplification stages (60, 62) (e.g. GaAs FET) to provide bias therefore to ensure safe operation, and a priority control circuit (42) responsive to the bias. The priority control circuit (42) operates a power switch (18) that couples the amplification stages (60,62) to a power supply, only when bias is present on their bias/gain inputs (56,58) This protects the amplification stages (60,62) against overcurrent operation. A separate external port (68) to the bias/gain control circuit (46) adjusts the magnitude of the bias to permit amplifier gain and power output to be adjusted. By gating the oscillator ON and OFF, high speed burst mode operation of the amplifier is achieved.
