Brief Description
The CMX264 is a frequency domain scrambler for use in analogue cellular phone systems. It contains
separate Tx and Rx paths for full duplex operation and operates under µProcessor control via a simple serial
interface.
In the Tx path, scrambling is achieved by splitting the audio band into two parts, or sub-bands, and frequency
inverting each one. The frequency at which the signal is split, the “split-point”, can be either fixed or rolling
between four possible settings resulting in a transmitted audio signal which is unintelligible to eavesdroppers.
Descrambling is achieved by a receive device set to the same split point as the remote transmitter. Thus if the
Tx and Rx devices are synchronously cycled through the same sequence of split points, a clear recovered
signal will emerge at the output of the receiver.
A 4.433619MHz crystal is used allowing up to four split points to be programmed. The device is designed to
be compatible with existing cellphone circuitry.

General Description
This device has been designed to be compatible with mobile station baseband channels. All signal processing
blocks such as lowpass filters, pre-emphasis, de-emphasis, and balanced modulators use switched capacitor
(SWC) techniques.
In each mode of operation, all blocks not in the signal path are turned off in order to minimise power
consumption. All internal settings and signal paths are selected by means of the serial interface according to
Section 1.5.3.
1.5.1
Tx Channel
1.5.1.1 Tx Channel Pre-Emphasis
A pre-emphasis circuit at the input of the Tx scramble block. It has a slope of 6dB per octave between
280Hz and 3140Hz. In scramble mode, it may be selected to “whiten” the audio signal prior to split
band inversion. It may be used in conjunction with the optional de-emphasis at the Rx output of the
descrambler.
1.5.1.2 Tx Lowerband Input Filter (TXLBIPF)
A lowpass filter whose input is the externally amplified and limited baseband audio signal from the
microphone. It selects that part of the audio spectrum which is below the split point. Its output signal is
processed by the lowerband balanced modulator and output filter to form the transmitted lowerband.
The bandwidth of the lowerband is controlled according to the split point chosen by varying the
bandwidth of this filter. The bandwidth is proportional to the sampling clock frequency and so an
appropriate clock frequency is internally selected for each split point.
1.5.1.3 Tx Lowerband Balanced Modulator
This modulates the output of the Tx Lowerband Input Filter (TXLBIPF) to form a frequency shifted
upper sideband and a frequency inverted lower sideband. It is the frequency inverted lower sideband
which is eventually transmitted as the lower frequency part of the scrambled signal, i.e. the lowerband.
The lower carrier frequency varies with split point and is always about 230Hz above the corner
frequency of the preceding lowpass filter (TXLBIPF). This means that baseband frequencies around
230Hz below the lower carrier frequency are translated to approximately 230Hz in the scrambled
audio. These frequencies form the lowest corner frequency of the transmit spectrum.
1.5.1.4 Tx Lowerband Output Filter (TXLBOPF)
A lowpass filter whose input is the output signal from the lowerband balanced modulator. Its function is
to select the frequency inverted lower sideband and remove the upper sideband. The resulting output
signal from this filter forms the lowerband part of the scrambled audio. It is summed with the output of
the Tx upperband channel to form the complete scrambled signal for transmission. This filter's corner
response also eventually defines the lower corner frequency of the recovered audio.
1.5.1.5 Tx Upperband Input Filter (TXUBIPF)
A lowpass filter whose cutoff frequency represents the upper limit of the baseband audio which is
scrambled, transmitted and descrambled. The output from this filter is processed by the upperband
balanced modulator, the output filter and any external channel filtering to form the transmitted
upperband.

CMX264
1.5.1.6 Upperband Balanced Modulator
This modulates the output of the Tx Upperband Input Filter (TXUBIPF) to form two sidebands, a
frequency inverted lower sideband and a non-inverted upper sideband. Part of the inverted lower
sideband is selected by the Tx Upperband Output Filter (TXUPOPF) to form the transmitted
upperband, i.e. that part of the audio spectrum above the split point.
For each split point setting, the upper carrier frequency is chosen so that baseband frequencies close
to 2770Hz are shifted to just above the split point. Conversely, baseband frequencies just above the
split point are shifted to the upper transmission limit of the channel. The result is that the upper carrier
is the same (approximate) distance above the lower carrier at all split point settings. The
approximation arises because of the need to have frequencies derivable from the crystal frequency
and the fact that only certain divisors of associated filter sample rates have been chosen as carriers, in
order to avoid aliasing.
1.5.1.7 Tx Upperband Output Filter (TXUBOPF)
A lowpass filter whose input is the output signal from the upperband balanced modulator. Its function
is to select that part of the frequency inverted lower sideband which will form the upperband part of the
transmitted scrambled audio. This output is summed with the output of the lowerband Tx channel to
form the complete scrambled signal for transmission.
This filter's response, together with any external filtering e.g. a lowpass filter used to ensure
compliance with statutory transmission requirements, defines the upper frequency of the transmitted
scrambled signal.
1.5.1.8 Tx Summer
This sums the lowerband and upperband to form the complete scrambled audio signal prior to
transmission.
1.5.1.9 Tx Channel De-Emphasis
A de-emphasis circuit at the output of the Tx scramble block. It has a slope of -6dB per octave
between 280Hz and 3140Hz. It may be used to compensate for pre-emphasis in the transmission
channel.
1.5.2
Rx Channel
1.5.2.1 Rx Channel Pre-Emphasis
A pre-emphasis circuit at the input of the Rx descramble block. It has a slope of 6dB per octave
between 280Hz and 3140Hz. In descramble mode, it may be selected to pre-emphasise the received
audio signal prior to signal recovery. It may, for example, be used to compensate for de-emphasis in
the transmission channel.
1.5.2.2 Rx Lowerband Input Filter (RXLBIPF)
A lowpass filter whose function is to select the lowerband part of the received scrambled signal. Its
bandwidth is controlled by the split point setting, which should be chosen to match the spectrum of the
received lowerband.
1.5.2.3 Rx Lowerband Balanced Modulator
This modulates the output of the preceding Rx Lowerband Input Filter (RXLBIPF). The carrier is
identical to that of the lowerband carrier in the transmitter section. The output consists of two
sidebands.
The lower sideband is inverted with respect to the received lowerband, i.e. returned to its original
frequency with respect to the original baseband signal. If the Tx and Rx carriers are the same
frequency, the lower sideband is the desired recovered lowerband.
The upper sideband is not required in the final descrambled output. It is removed by the Rx

1.5.2.4 Rx Lowerband Output Filter (RXLBOPF)
A lowpass filter whose function is to select the lower sideband output of the preceding balanced
modulator. Its output is the lowerband part of the descrambled signal which is summed with the
output of the upperband Rx channel to form the complete descrambled signal.
1.5.2.5 Rx Upperband Input Filter (RXUBIPF)
A lowpass filter whose cutoff frequency is close to the upper corner frequency of the transmit channel.
Its function is to select the received scrambled signal and reject channel noise at frequencies above
this signal.
It is assumed that any transmitted 4kHz SAT tone has been attenuated prior to the Rx channel input of
the CMX264.
1.5.2.6 Rx Upperband Balanced Modulator
This modulates the output of the preceding Rx Upperband Input Filter (RXUBIPF). The carrier is
identical to that of the upperband carrier in the transmitter section. The output consists of two
sidebands.
The lower sideband is inverted with respect to the received lowerband, i.e. non-inverted with respect to
the original baseband signal. If the Tx and Rx carriers are the same frequency, the lower sideband is
the desired recovered upperband.
The upper sideband is a non-inverted, frequency shifted signal and is not required in the final
descrambled output. It is removed by the Rx Upperband Output Filter (RXUBOPF).
1.5.2.7 Rx Upperband Output Filter (RXUBOPF)
A lowpass filter whose function is to select the lower sideband output of the Rx upperband balanced
modulator. Its output is the upperband part of the descrambled signal which is summed with the output
of the lowerband Rx channel to form the complete descrambled signal.
1.5.2.8 Rx Summer
This sums the lowerband and upperband to form the complete descrambled audio signal.
1.5.2.9 Rx Channel De-Emphasis
A de-emphasis circuit at the output of the Rx descramble block. It has a slope of -6dB per octave
between 280Hz and 3140Hz. It may be selected to de-emphasise the recovered (descrambled) audio
signal. It may be selected in conjunction with the pre-emphasis circuit at the input of the Tx scramble
block.
1.5.3
Serial Interface
1.5.3.1 General Operation
The serial interface controls the internal states and modes of operation of the CMX264. Data is input to
the SDATA pin MSD (D10) first and is clocked into the device on the rising edge of SCLK. Only the
last 11 bits of data is loaded on the rising edge of CSN. The bit functions are shown in
Table 1. Also refer to the timing diagram of Figure 10.

On power up, the CMX264 automatically sets itself into the powersave state.
The host equipment should then select the operating mode via the serial interface at least 3ms after
initial power up. The delay is to allow the reset circuit to become dormant. This is the only occasion on
which it operates.

Table 5
Bits D8, D7, D6 activate or de-activate the audio outputs in both clear (D9 = 1) and scramble
(D9 = 0) modes:
Bit D8 controls the Tx output MICO.
Bit D7 controls the Rx output RECO.
Bit D6 controls the Rx output EXTO.
In all cases, the output is activated by setting the relevant data bit to logic 1 and is de-activated
by setting the bit to logic 0. The Rx outputs (RECO and EXTO) can also be de-activated by the
MUTERX pin, which asynchronously overrides bits D6 and D7.
When activated, the signal output at an output pin is determined by the internal state of the device,
e.g. in clear mode (D9 = 1), the MICO pin will output the signal from the MICIN pin. In scramble mode,
when the Tx de-emphasis circuit is selected, the MICO pin will carry the signal from the de-emphasis
output, and so on.
When de-activated, an output is pulled to VBIAS by means of an internal high impedance.

Application Notes
1.6.1
General Use
CMX264
The transmit scramble function may be implemented by connecting the device in the microphone line.
The receive function is achieved by connecting the device in the earpiece line. Some external pre- and
post-amplification and limiting may be necessary to ensure good signal to noise and dynamic range
performance.
Many existing cellphones incorporate the functions of SAT tone filtering and anti-splatter filtering so
these features are not included in the CMX264. The transmit and receive spectral shaping is designed
to make this interfacing easy.
It is anticipated that statutory transmission requirements will be met by filtering within the host
equipment e.g. for removal of a SAT tone at 4kHz. The filtering required for this is quite stringent (see
Figure 8) and so the Tx Upperband Output Filter (TXUBOPF) has been designed to avoid
unnecessary signal loss in the region of 3kHz. (see Figure 7).
Because this filter does not completely remove unwanted harmonics from the output of the upperband
balanced modulator, transmit output distortion and noise is specified at the output of the host transmit
filter (see Electrical Performance Specification in Section 1.7.1).
It is desirable to introduce any channel control signals (whether in-band or sub-audio) after the
scramble function and to remove the signals before descrambling.
1.6.2.
Input Anti-Alias and Output Smoothing Filters
1.6.2.1 Input Anti-Alias Filtering
The internal circuitry of the device uses sampled techniques and so anti-alias filtering and post-filtering
(smoothing) may be required.
Input anti-alias filtering is supplied on chip at the MICIN and RXIN inputs. The filtering is first order with
a corner frequency of 25kHz.
Possible alias frequencies are:
(with input pre-emphasis selected)
63.337kHz
(with input pre-emphasis not selected)
85.261kHz
63.337kHz
52.780kHz
44.336kHz
184.734kHz
(Split point 1)
(Split point 2 and clear mode)
(Split point 3)
(Split point 4)
(All split points)
1.6.2.2 Output Smoothing
All output buffers are sampled circuits clocked at 63.337kHz but no post-filtering is provided on chip.
This is not included in this product as such circuitry is normally included elsewhere, so it may be
necessary for the host equipment to provide this filtering either to comply with transmission
requirements or to prevent aliasing within other sampled circuits in the system.

1.
Not including any current drawn from the device pins by external circuitry.
2.
This ignores the effects of pre-emphasis and de-emphasis, if selected.
3.
Relative to a single tone at the MICIN pin. Because of the frequency inversion of the
scrambling process, the output frequency will not in general be equal to the input frequency.
However, the scramble signal output MICO will typically be within the limits given by Figures
3, 4, 5 or 6. The scrambled signal upper rolloff is defined by the filter TXUBOPF (Figure 7).
4.
Filtering within the host equipment should ensure compliance with statutory transmission
requirements e.g. removal of a 4kHz SAT tone. See Figure 8 for a typical transmit filter which
would be used to accomplish this.
5
Not applicable within the region of the split point.
In transmit, the upperband is shifted upwards away from the lowerband so that there is a gap
in the scrambled spectrum. This avoids aliasing between the two bands in the recovered
audio. See Figures 3, 4, 5 and 6 which show these gaps for each split point.
6.
An output may be de-activated by powersaving the whole device (D10 = 0) or by deselecting it
by means of the relevant control bit (D6, D7 or D8) or, for the RECO and EXTO outputs, by
setting the MUTERX pin to logic ‘1’
7.
With a single tone at the relevant input pin (MICIN or RXIN).
8. This parameter specifies the level of any unwanted spurious tones relative to the expected
output tone, whether that wanted tone is frequency shifted or not. The unwanted tones may be
the result of carrier breakthrough, baseband breakthrough or other aliasing effects.

CMX264
Measured at the output of the host transmit radio filter, such as shown in Figure 8.
10. The distortion figure of the expected output tone, whether that wanted tone is frequency
shifted or not. This parameter is defined as the rms value of the spurious tones specified in
Note 8 plus the noise within the measurement bandwidth, divided by the rms value of the total
signal, i.e. the wanted signal plus noise plus spurious tones.
11. Specified over the complete scrambling/descrambling process i.e. scrambling by the Tx
channel of the transmitting device, typical radio channel filtering such as shown in Figure 8
and descrambling by the Rx channel of the receiving device. The typical Rx channel
passband gain of the CMX264 receive section only is -1.0dB.
12. Not applicable in the region of the split point.
The response may exceed these limits within ±0.3 octaves of the frequencies 1950Hz,
1420Hz, 1180Hz and 980Hz (for split points 1 to 4, respectively).
Also, it may be outside ±3dB within ±0.15 octaves of the frequencies 1900Hz,
1450Hz, 1210Hz and 1000Hz (for split points 1 to 4, respectively).
In the recovered audio, some of the energy at the split point will have been transmitted in the
lowerband and some will have been transmitted in the upperband. When the Rx device
reconstitutes the signal, frequencies in the vicinity of the split point will consist of signals
summed together which have a random phase in relation to each other. The relative phase will
change over time so that the signals will vary between reinforcing each other or cancelling
each other, thus taking the response outside the given limits.
13. See Figures 9a and 9b for typical responses of the pre/de-emphasis circuits.
14. The internal state of the device is controlled by the data D0-D10 input at the serial interface.
Data should not be loaded until 3ms after initial power up to allow the reset circuit to complete
its operation and exit the RESET state..
15. No filtering is performed in clear mode, however there is a possibility of aliasing at 63.337kHz
(see Section 1.6.2.1).
