Abstract: This invention provides a charge pump biasing circuit that varies the bias when the phase lock loop changes frequency to improve the settling time of the phase lock loop. During a frequency change, the charge pump output current taper off as the phase lock loop approaches the desired frequency. The charge pump biasing circuit allows the phase lock loop to change frequencies faster and minimizes spurious sideband noise once the loop has settled.

Abstract: A direct conversion receiver system is provided in which a first input signal at a first frequency is applied to a first input port of a multiplier, a second input signal at a second frequency equal to about {fraction (1/n)} times the first frequency, wherein n is an integer, is applied to a second input port of the multiplier. A first filter coupled to the first input port is configured to substantially filter out any leakage at the second frequency which may be present. A second filter coupled to the second input port is configured to substantially filter out any leakage at the first frequency which may be present. The multiplier is configured to produce a signal at an output port thereof which is derived from the product of the first and second signals. In one embodiment, the output is representative of the product of the filtered first signal and a multiplication factor which switches at n times the second frequency. The output of the multiplier is coupled to a third filter. The output signal has a baseband component and another component. The third filter is configured to substantially filter out the other component and substantially maintain the baseband component in the output signal. In one implementation example, the multiplier is a mixer initializing half-frequency injection, such that the LO frequency is about ½ the RF frequency.

Abstract: A transmitter adjusts a transmitted power level by modifying a control input of a variable gain amplifier. A power amplifier control system includes an envelope extractor, an error extractor, and a feed-forward multiplier. The envelope extractor receives data signal inputs and computes the envelope of the combined signal. The error extractor generates an error signal as a function of the combined signal and the output power generated by the power amplifier. The feed-forward multiplier generates a modified error signal that is responsive to a function of the gain in a feedback path. A corresponding method for controlling a power level is also disclosed. In some embodiments, a transmit chain with a power control loop is used to adjust the transmit signal power applied at an input of a variable gain amplifier. A corresponding method for adjusting the transmit signal power level is also included.

Abstract: A controller enables the integration of a DC-DC converter in an amplitude modulation power control loop in a mobile handset. The controller includes an input conditioner and an event sensor. The input conditioner uses a peak detector to track the output of a regulator and responds to available baseband input signals. The event sensor controls a switch that connects the DC-DC converter to a battery in response to a bypass event. The controller bypasses the DC-DC-converter when a transmitter is not enabled. The DC-DC converter is enabled prior to a transmission burst. A target voltage is determined from a series of detected peak voltages from the output of the regulator. The controller commands the DC-DC converter to transition to the target voltage until the end of a transmission burst.

Abstract: A method for a closed power control feedback loop allows a single portable transceiver architecture to be used for systems in which a transmit signal including both a phase modulated (PM) component and an amplitude modulated (AM) component are supplied to a power amplifier and in systems in which the transmit signal has only a PM component supplied to a power amplifier. By injecting the inverse of the AM portion of the desired transmit signal into the closed power control feedback loop, the feedback loop will not cancel the AM portion of the signal, thus allowing a system where both a PM component and an AM component of the transmit signal are present at the output of the power amplifier to function using a closed power control feedback loop.
