The monolithic die, designed on a 65-nm pure digital CMOS technology, integrates the transceiver core as well as the analog functionality to provide a digital interface compliant with the DigRF v1.12 standard. The BCM2085 offers a low power, highlyintegrated and low cost EDGE RF solution in a 4 mm x 4 mm package. It is the industry's smallest DigRF-compliant EDGE transceiver. integrated. This architecture enables the use of standard linear power amplifiers to accelerate time to market through ease of design while ensuring a robust manufacturing solution. The BCM2085 delivers outstanding RF performance while achieving low power consumption through innovative architecture and circuit design. The RF transceiver draws upon Broadcom's extensive experience in pure digital CMOS radio design. Proprietary, autonomous, real-time calibrations within the radio ensure the BCM2085 delivers critical radio performance while using pure digital CMOS. Integration of the voltage controlled oscillators, synthesizers, and loop filters minimizes the board area and external component count. The BCM2085 features an integrated Σ∆ fractional-N synthesizer to achieve fast settling times supporting multi-slot GPRS/EDGE operation up to Class 34. The reference frequency for the synthesizer is supplied from the internal digitally-controlled crystal oscillator (DCXO) allowing the use of a low cost crystal. Two buffered reference frequency outputs are also provided to supply other devices in the system. A novel polar transmit architecture ensures the low transmit power consumption and eliminates any SAW filters in the transmit path. The transmitter employs a Σ∆ modulator for GMSK and a polar modulator for 8PSK. The transmit modulators and ramp generator are also The receiver is based on a proven low-IF architecture providing suppression of DC offsets avoiding the issues related to direct conversion receivers. Four integrated LNAs permit quad-band implementations. Digitization of the receive signal is performed with Σ∆ ADCs followed by internal digital channel filtering. Compatible with all DigRF-compliant basebands, the BCM2085 is the ideal choice to easily lower the cost and size of EDGE handsets and smartphones.
