Abstract

A single chip radio transceiver for the DECT (Digital Enhanced Cordless Telephone) system has been implemented using Si 0.6 μm BiCMOS technology. The device implements Rx down-converting mixers, a limiting IF strip, second down-converting image rejecting mixer, PLL demodulator with S-field sample and hold, bit slicer, synthesiser, UHF VCO, frequency doubler and transmit buffer. Synthesiser programming and the chip power management is achieved via the programming of an integrated 3 wire serial port. The chip also includes two separate supply voltage regulators, one of which is dedicated for use by the single UHF VCO
