Functional Description The G600 baseband is based around a 2 chip GSM chipset. One chip carries out signal processing with DSP and CPU, called GEMINI, and the other chip contains the analogue interface chip, called VEGA. The highly integrated nature of these components means each contain a large number of functions.

BASEBAND OVERVIEW 6.2.1 Keypad The Keypad has a 5 x 5 matrix allowing 25 keys to be scanned on a key being pressed, a keypad interrupt is generated. To find which key is pressed the software must assert each column in turn and read which row is active. Because of key bounce, the key press must then be confirmed twice at about 20mS intervals.

GEMINI 7.2.3 Memory Interface The memory interface allows the 32 bit CPU to access 16 and 8 bit devices, and allows the addition of wait states to memory access. The memory interface allows between 0 and 7 wait states to be added. The ROM area is hardware write protected, a FLASH write enable bit in the ROM wait state configuration register can be used to enable write access the ROM area.

POWER SUPPLIES POWER SUPPLIES Introduction This section describes the Power Supply Unit (PSU) used on the G600 logic PCB and the method by which it is controlled. This section has detailed information on: 1. An overview of the circuit functionality 2.
POWER SUPPLIES Signal CPU I/O Description External interrupt to the CPU. The voltage detector output goes LOW when the battery voltage drops below 3.6V. If the phone is on, this signal forces the PSU off and the interrupt initiates an emergency power down procedure. If the phone is off, a LOW on this signal will lock the PSU off.
POWER SUPPLIES 9.3.2 Power-up Sequence The power-up sequence can be initiated by pressing the power key or by the presence of an external power source on the signal EXT_PWR. Both enable the linear regulators and the CPU becomes active. The CPU must then check the battery condition;...
The Power supply circuit needs to supply regulated power to the baseband and RF parts, control battery charging and monitor battery usage. G600 must achieve 2 types of battery operation - 4 cell Ni-MH and 2 cell Li-ION. The power supply section consists of four parts;...
Page 38
POWER SUPPLIES NOTE: During charging, the voltage could rise as high as 9.4V and all circuitry connected to the battery must be designed to operate up to this voltage. A block diagram for a four cell power supply is shown in figure 2 below, note that the battery voltage is stepped-up to power 5V SIM cards or the 5V RF power amplifier.
Especially in Li-ION cells, high voltage dropout reduces the efficiency more than a small voltage dropout. To increase the current consumption efficiency, the G600 uses 3.4V step-down DC/DC voltage regulators. The DC/DC step-down circuitry uses two regulators on the LOGIC side and three regulators on the RF side to reduce the power loss to minimum.

POWER SUPPLIES 9.5.2 Battery Charging circuit The CPU within the phone controls the battery charging. When external power is present the phone is automatically switched on. If rechargeable cells are detected and the temperature is within specified limits the charger starts using a rapid charge algorithm.
ACCESSORIES 10 ACCESSORIES 10.1 Handsfree Unit - Circuit Description 10.1.1 General Description The handsfree unit consists of audio processing, power supply and external power for the charging circuitry within the handheld unit.

ACCESSORIES Reset Circuit U310 and U314 form the reset circuit. U314 is a voltage level detector whose output goes low if the supply drops below 4.5V. When nHF ON is low (P201 pin 7), Q307 is switched on, pulling the input to U310 high. This signal also feeds the two analogue switches turning them on.
