Description
Low-power Ultraminiature Multi-band Gsm Transceiver Ic
Manufacturer
Sony Electronics
Datasheet
The CXA3200ER/AR adopts an ad-
vanced architecture. It can efficiently
implement not only single band and dual
band receivers, but even triple band
receivers for the 900, 1800, and 1900
MHz bands in the GSM standard. The
transmitter system takes full advantage
of sum loop technology to produce a
high-purity transmitter output signal,
and thus allows the high-cost large
insertion loss duplexer normally
required to be replaced with a low-cost
low-loss antenna switch. The receiver

The GSM digital portable phone system was first placed in service in
1992 in Europe, but its use has now grown to the point where it is the
world standard for digital portable phones.
With this flourishing demand as background, new GSM frequency bands
are about to be placed in service in many countries worldwide.
To respond to this market demand, Sony has promoted IC design for
the GSM system at its design center in England. One of the results of
this effort is the development of the CXA3200ER/AR described here.

When I started working on devel-
oping this IC, I made a point of
keeping in mind Sony’s image of
producing the world’s smallest
and lightest products. To achieve
this in the world of GSM portable
phones, we made it our goal to
integrate the functions for two
transceivers, one for the 900 MHz
band and one for the 1800 MHz
band, on a single chip. I believe
that this makes it possible to pro-
vide GSM subscribers with GSM
portable phones that are smaller
and lighter than conventional cell
phones, and that can be used in
any country, whichever standard
it adopts.

system allows an optimal IF frequency
to be selected, and thus can support all
the GSM reception bands with a single
IF SAW filter. It also includes on-chip
both a bias control circuit provided for
an external low-noise LNA, and an IF
local signal oscillator circuit that is
shared by the transmission and recep-
tion systems. Transmission, reception,
and power saving modes (mode control)
can be controlled with great precision
over the 3-wire bus. The reception mode
gain can also be controlled over that bus.
Sony provides two version of this
product, the CXA3200ER and the
CXA3200AR, for interface with a wide
range of baseband chips. To achieve
even further miniaturization in GSM
phones, the CXA3200ER is provided in
a newly-developed VQFN leadless
package. (See figures 2 and 3.)

creased. Also, in conjunction with
Sony’s MMIC products, this device
allows the creation of high-sensitivity
low loss transceivers. Furthermore,
GPRS* and other high-speed data com-
munication systems can be imple-
mented by using this product in
conjunction with a commercial general-
purpose high-performance PLL IC.
Sony is now actively improving its com-
munication semiconductor design and
customer support system, not only in
Japan, but also through Sony Semicon-
ductor Europe in the UK under a
powerful support system based in Japan.
The CXA3200ER/AR was created
under this global system, and is opti-
mal for implementing GSM portable
phone transceivers.
