ESCRIPTION
FC7870 of FCI’s zipRF™ family is a multi-band
and multi-mode RF-to-baseband direct-conversion
transceiver IC which covers most of the 2G, 3G,
and 4G applications including GSM, GPRS, EDGE,
WCDMA, HSPA, HSPA+, TD-SCDMA, FDD and
TDD LTE. FC7870 covers almost all the frequency
allocation bands from 1 to 41 with receiver diversity.
It is a highly integrated chip working with dual
supply voltage such as 1.2V and 1.8V. Due to the
linear, wide dynamic range transmit chain with low
RX-band phase noise characteristics and low noise
figure and highly linear receive chain, the RX and
TX RF SAW filters are no longer required in most of
the applications. The 4-wired serial-to-parallel
interface (SPI) enables FC7870 to operate in
various modes.
FC7870 contains complete multi-band receiver
diversity path such as LNA, down-conversion mixer,
channel selection filter (CSF), baseband
programmable gain amplifier (PGA), Rx VCO, Rx
PLL, and LO distribution block. FC7870 also
contains complete transmitter path such as
baseband amplifier, TX channel filter, up-converter,
RF programmable drive amplifier (DA), Tx VCO, Tx
PLL, RMS detector, envelop detector, and LO
distribution block. The RMS power detector is
included to indicate the received TX output power
level whereas the envelop detector is used for
internal TX DC and I/Q calibration. FC7870 is
available in 4.87mm x 4.87mm 121-pin WLCSP
(wafer level chip scale package).
FC7870 fully support all the various FDD/TDD
duplexing method. For TDD operation, the TX_ON
hardware pin exists. Also SPI controlled TDD
operation is supported. During TDD operation, RX
VCO/PLL can be configured to operate as a
common LO supporting both of the TX and RX
operation.
