• Inactive mode: with the exception of the microcontroller
interface, all circuits are powered-down. The crystal
reference oscillator, the output clock buffer, the voltage
regulator and the voltage doubler can be disabled
separately. To reduce microcontroller current
consumption, the crystal frequency to the clock output
can be divided by 128. A low current consumption mode
for the crystal oscillator can be programmed.
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
7.1
Power supply and power management
7.1.1
POWER SUPPLY
The UAA3515A is used in a cordless telephone handset
and in a base unit. The handset unit is battery powered
and operates on three NiCd cells. The minimum supply
voltage (VCC) is 2.9 V.
7.1.2
Latch memory is maintained in all modes. Blocks that are
powered are shown in Table 1 per operating mode.
POWER SAVING
When the UAA3515A is used in a handset, it is important
to minimize current consumption. The main operating
modes are:
The crystal oscillator, the clock output buffer, the voltage
reference adjustment, the power amplifier, the voltage
doubler, the earpiece, the hard limiter and the ALC can be
activated separately. Blocks that can be activated in each
mode are shown in Table 2.
• Active mode (talk): all blocks are powered
• RX mode: all circuits in the receiver part are powered

1. In RX and active mode, the crystal oscillator is activated automatically. An external frequency can be forced at the
crystal pins XTALI and XTALO.
2. In RX and active mode, the voltage reference is enabled automatically (whether bit VREG enable is logic 0 or 1).
3. If the voltage doubler is enabled, the crystal oscillator is activated automatically.
4. In inactive mode the amplifier is disabled automatically.

CURRENT CONSUMPTION
The control bit values for selection of each mode and typical current consumption for the modes are shown in Table 3.
When clock out is activated there is an extra power demand proportional to the programmed output level (see Table 4
for examples). When bit Xtal high = 0 (oscillator is in low current consumption mode), the crystal in use must have losses
less than 20 Ω to ensure oscillator start-up.

FM receiver
The FM receiver (see Fig.3) has a single frequency conversion architecture with integrated image rejection mixer that
makes an external RF filter unnecessary. The Side Band Select (SBS) feature allows choice of frequency for RXLO to
be in or out of the ISM band allowing use of the same IC type for both base station and handset. IF channel filtering
(a compromise between price and performance) can be implemented simply using two or three external 10.7 MHz filters.
The integrated FM PLL demodulator with limiter decreases significantly the number of pins and external components
required.

DATA COMPARATOR
The data comparator is an inverting hysteresis
comparator. An external bandpass filter is connected
between pins DETO and DATI (AC-coupled). The
open-collector output is current limited to control the output
signal slew rate. An external resistor of 180 kΩ should be
connected between pin DATO and VCC. An external
capacitor in parallel with this resistor will reduce the slew
rate.

UAA3515A
Transmitter
The transmitter architecture is of the direct modulation
type. The transmit VCO can be frequency modulated by
speech or data (see Fig.4). An amplifier sums the
modulating signal with the data TX signal before the VCO.
Frequency control is affected by integrated variable
capacitance diodes. To obtain the correct frequency,
external inductors in series with the bonding wires and
leadframe are required. The power amplifier is capable of
driving a 50 Ω load. The level of the output signal PAO is
programmed with two bits via the serial bus interface.

CALCULATION EXAMPLE
Given:
The crystal local oscillator and reference divider (see
Fig.5) provide the reference frequency for the RX and TX
PLLs. The 10-bit reference divider is programmed with
respect to the crystal frequency and the desired RX and
TX frequencies. The microcontroller operating frequency
of 4.096 MHz is derived from a 16.384 MHz crystal
frequency. The clock divider ratio can be programmed to
1, 2, 2.5, 4 or to 128; ratio 128 is chosen in sleep mode to
save current in the microcontroller section. Clock output
(pin CLKOUT) is an emitter follower output.
RF input frequency fi(RF) = 903 MHz
VCO RX fVCO(RX) = 892.3 MHz
fIF = 10.7 MHz
VCO TX fVCO(TX) = 925.6 MHz
Internal comparison frequency = 20 kHz
(fXTAL = 10.24 MHz)
We have:
Reference divider = 512 (1000000000)
The 16-bit TX counter is programmed for the desired
transmit channel frequency. Similarly, the 16-bit RX
counter is programmed for the desired local oscillator
frequency. The divider counter comprises a 6-bit prescaler
with division ratios (R) from 64 to 127, and a 10-bit CMOS
divider with division ratios (C) from 8 to 1023. The full
counter provides division ratios from 512 to 65535.
Settings of RX and TX counters are calculated as follows:
6
892.3 × 10
M RX = ----------------------------- = 44615
3
20 × 10
C RX = 697 (1010111001) and R RX = 7 (000111)
and
6
925.6 × 10
M TX = ----------------------------- = 46280
3
20 × 10
M
C = int -----64
C TX = 723 (1011010011) and R TX = 8 (001000)
R = M − C × 64
VCOs and variable capacitance diodes are integrated.
Resonance inductors are shared between bonding wires,
leadframe of the package and external inductors. Costs
can be reduced by etching external inductors directly onto
the printed-circuit board.
(where M is the division ratio between VCO frequency and
the reference frequency).
An on-chip selectable voltage doubler is provided to
enable a larger tuning range of both VCOs. The phase
detectors have current drive type outputs with selection
possibilities between 400 and 800 µA.

Receiver baseband
UAA3515A
The earpiece amplifier is a rail-to-rail inverting operational
amplifier. The non-inverting input is connected to the
internal reference voltage at pin VB. Software volume
control on the earpiece amplifier is achieved by using an
integrated switched feedback resistor Rint. The volume
control tuning range is 14 dB. Hardware volume control is
achieved by switching externally the earpiece feedback
resistor Rext.
This section covers the RX audio path from pins RXAI to
EARO (see Fig.6). The RXAI input signal is AC-coupled.
The microcontroller sets the value of the RX gain in
32 linear steps of 0.5 dB. The RX baseband has a mute
function and an expander with characteristics as shown in
Fig.7.
For audio level adjustment and, potentially for software
volume control, setting the RX gain provides a dynamic
range of 31 dB. This is achieved by the expander slope
that multiplies the RX gain by a factor of two for each gain
step thus giving 1 dB steps measured at the earpiece
amplifier output.

TX baseband
The TX baseband has a compressor with the
characteristic shown in Fig.9. The ALC provides a ‘soft’
limit to the output signal swing as the input voltage
increases slowly (i.e. a sine wave is maintained at the
output). A hard limiter clamps the compressor output
voltage at 1.26 V (peak-to-peak). The ALC and the hard
limiter can be disabled via the microcontroller interface.
The hard limiter is followed by a mute circuit. The TX gain
is digitally programmable in 32 steps of 0.5 dB.
This section covers the TX audio path from pins MICI to
TXO (see Fig.8). The input signal at pin MICI is
AC-coupled. There is another AC-coupling at the
microphone amplifier output.
The microphone amplifier is an inverting operational
amplifier whose gain can be set by external resistors. The
non-inverting input is connected to the internal reference
voltage VB. External resistors are used to set the gain and
frequency response.

Voltage regulator
Pin VREG provides the internal supply voltage for the
RX and TX PLLs. It is regulated at 2.7 V nominal voltage.
Two capacitors of 4.7 µF and 100 nF must be connected
to pin VREG to filter and stabilize this regulated voltage. The
tolerance of the regulated voltage is initially ±8% but is
improved to ±2% after the internal bandgap voltage
reference is adjusted through the microcontroller.
7.8
UAA3515A
Microcontroller interface
The DATA, CLK and EN pins provide a 3-wire
unidirectional serial interface for programming the
reference counters, the transmit and receive channel
divider-counters and the control functions.
The interface consists of 19-bit shift registers connected to
a matrix of registers organized as 7 words of 16 bits (all
are control registers). The leading 16 bits include the data
D15 to D0. The trailing 3 bits set up the address AD2 to
AD0. The data is entered with the most significant bit D15
first and the last bit is AD0.
Low-battery detection
The low-battery detector measures the voltage level of the
VCC using a resistance divider and a comparator. One
input of the comparator is connected to VB, the other to the
middle point of the resistance divider. The comparator has
a built-in hysteresis to prevent spurious switching. The
precision of the detection depends on the divider
accuracy, the comparator offset and the accuracy of the
reference voltage VB. The output is multiplexed at pin
CDLBD. When the battery voltage level is under the
threshold voltage the output CDLBD is going LOW.
Pins DATA and CLK are used to load data into the shift
register. Figure 10 shows the timing required on all pins.
Data is clocked into the shift registers on negative clock
transitions.
A new clock divider ratio is enabled using an extra EN
rising edge. Minimum hold time is 50 ns and during this
time no clock cycle is allowed. These extra EN edges can
be applied to all the data programmed but will have no
effect on the serial interface programming.
The pins DATA, CLK and EN are supplied by VREG. The
ESD protection diodes on these pins are connected to
VCC.

Notes
1. Sideband select enables the user to have the RX local oscillator in or out of the ISM band and to use the same IC in
both handset and base.
2. A 4.5 dB insertion loss in the filter is assumed.
3. The clock output signal will be AC-coupled with the XTALI pin of the microcontroller. The external resonator from the
microcontroller can be removed. Caution needs to be taken that no radiation is present on the PCB
4. In inactive mode, the crystal oscillator is a major contributor to the full current consumption. When Xtal high = 0, the
current mode can be programmed to save current and in inactive mode this comes to full current consumption at
230 µA (see Section 7.1.3). When Xtal high = 1, the crystal oscillator current is increased by 100 µA.
5. Depending on the SBS-bit and the protocol chosen, the data may be inverted between the base and handset data
transmission.
6. Minimum supply voltage for the IC is 2.9 V which limits the voltage swing on both charge pumps to approximately
2.3 V. With the voltage doubler or with an external high supply voltage on pin VCC(CP), the extra voltage availability
can be used to enhance the tuning range of the VCOs variable capacitance diodes. To save current in inactive mode,
XTAL
voltage doubler clock is the same as CLKO clock (can be programmed to --------------- ); in other modes the voltage doubler
128
clock is XTALI divided by two.

TX AND RX GAIN CONTROL REGISTERS
The TX and RX audio signal paths each have a programmable gain block. If a TX or RX voltage gain other than the
nominal power-up default is desired it can be programmed through the microcontroller interface. The gain blocks can be
used during final telephone testing to adjust electronically gain tolerances in the telephone system. The RX gain and the
TX gain controls have steps of 0.5 dB covering a dynamic range of −7.5 to +8.0 dB. Measured on the earpiece amplifier
output, RX gain steps are multiplied by 2 due to the expander slope. A dynamic range of −15 to +16 dB at the earpiece
amplifier supports a volume control feature that can be implemented in the telephone and compensate for gain
tolerances. Volume control can also be performed externally with hardware switches on various resistor values.

CARRIER DETECTOR THRESHOLD PROGRAMMING
When the LBD active register = 0, the carrier detector is enabled and the signal CDout is sent to the output pin CDLBD.
If RSSI is above the programmed RSSI level, CDLBD = 0; if RSSI is below the programmed level then CDLBD = 1. The
carrier detector gives an indication if a carrier signal is present on the selected channel. The carrier detector has a
nominal value and tolerance, if a different carrier detect threshold value is desired, this can be programmed through the
microcontroller interface. If the carrier detect range is to be scaled, an external resistor should be connected between
pin RSSI and ground. CD control = 10011 which corresponds to RSSI = 0.86 V (typical DC value).

LOW-BATTERY DETECTION
When the LBD active register = 1, the low battery detector is enabled and the signal BDout passes to the output CDLBD.
If VCC is below the programmed LBD level, CDLBD = 0; if not below the programmed level, CDLBD = 1. The power-up
default value is 110.

POWER AMPLIFIER OUTPUT LEVEL
The power amplifier output register has two bits to modify the output power and one bit to disable the power amplifier
(PA output bit 2 = 0). Duplexer matching (300 Ω to 50 Ω) is performed using a parallel inductive/series capacitive
network. Output power on 50 Ω is specified in Table 14. To get power on the antenna, duplexer insertion loss should be
removed. At maximum power, 3 mA extra DC current is consumed compared with the current at the minimum power
settings.

PLL CHARGE PUMP CURRENT
Performance of the PLLs can be improved by increasing charge pump current. Then a programmable current on both
RX and TX charge pump can be programmed. RX and TX charge pump currents are programmed independently. When
the RX or TX charge pump current register = 0, charge pump current is 400 µA; when it is set to 1, charge pump current
is 800 µA.

VOLUME CONTROL
The register VCTL enables the volume control of the earpiece amplifier to be set to a predefined gain. This is achieved
by switched feedback resistor Rint. The optional resistor Rext, connected between pins EARI and EARO provides the
hardware control.

CRYSTAL TUNING CAPACITORS
On-chip crystal reference tuning is provided to compensate for frequency spread over process and temperature changes.
An external capacitor should be connected at pin XTALI; the value of the capacitor should be approximately 3 pF less
than the capacitance of pin XTALO. Internally, a programmable capacitance is available in parallel with the XTALI pin.
Tuning capacitance values are in the range 0 to 4.5 pF; see Table 16.

TEST MODE
Test mode bits are used only for test in production and application tuning. The test bits must be set to 0 for normal
operation. Out-of-lock of synthesizers RX or TX can be monitored indirectly on pin CDLBD: the width of the ‘glitch’ that
occurs with out-of-lock gives a direct indication of the phase error on the PLL RX and/or TX. To tune the external
inductors of the RX and TX VCOs, a defined division ratio has to be programmed into the dividers, and then the image
frequency of the VCO can be read on pin CDLBD. Test mode can also be used to check the division ratio: a frequency
can be forced on the VCO or crystal pins and the programmed frequency can be read on pin CDLBD. There is a
divide-by-2 stage before the CDLBD pin, therefore all frequencies are divided-by-2. When both charge pumps are in the
high-impedance state, the VCOs can be measured as stand alone.

• Use a double-wave soldering method comprising a
turbulent wave with high upward pressure followed by a
smooth laminar wave.
13 SOLDERING
13.1
Introduction to soldering surface mount
packages
• For packages with leads on two sides and a pitch (e):
This text gives a very brief insight to a complex technology.
A more in-depth account of soldering ICs can be found in
our “Data Handbook IC26; Integrated Circuit Packages”
(document order number 9398 652 90011).
– larger than or equal to 1.27 mm, the footprint
longitudinal axis is preferred to be parallel to the
transport direction of the printed-circuit board;
– smaller than 1.27 mm, the footprint longitudinal axis
must be parallel to the transport direction of the
printed-circuit board.
There is no soldering method that is ideal for all surface
mount IC packages. Wave soldering can still be used for
certain surface mount ICs, but it is not suitable for fine pitch
SMDs. In these situations reflow soldering is
recommended.
13.2
The footprint must incorporate solder thieves at the
downstream end.
• For packages with leads on four sides, the footprint must
be placed at a 45° angle to the transport direction of the
printed-circuit board. The footprint must incorporate
solder thieves downstream and at the side corners.
Reflow soldering
Reflow soldering requires solder paste (a suspension of
fine solder particles, flux and binding agent) to be applied
to the printed-circuit board by screen printing, stencilling or
pressure-syringe dispensing before package placement.
During placement and before soldering, the package must
be fixed with a droplet of adhesive. The adhesive can be
applied by screen printing, pin transfer or syringe
dispensing. The package can be soldered after the
adhesive is cured.
Several methods exist for reflowing; for example,
convection or convection/infrared heating in a conveyor
type oven. Throughput times (preheating, soldering and
cooling) vary between 100 and 200 seconds depending
on heating method.
Typical dwell time is 4 seconds at 250 °C.
A mildly-activated flux will eliminate the need for removal
of corrosive residues in most applications.
Typical reflow peak temperatures range from
215 to 250 °C. The top-surface temperature of the
packages should preferable be kept below 220 °C for
thick/large packages, and below 235 °C for small/thin
packages.
13.3
13.4
Manual soldering
Fix the component by first soldering two
diagonally-opposite end leads. Use a low voltage (24 V or
less) soldering iron applied to the flat part of the lead.
Contact time must be limited to 10 seconds at up to
300 °C.
Wave soldering
Conventional single wave soldering is not recommended
for surface mount devices (SMDs) or printed-circuit boards
with a high component density, as solder bridging and
non-wetting can present major problems.
When using a dedicated tool, all other leads can be
soldered in one operation within 2 to 5 seconds between
270 and 320 °C.
To overcome these problems the double-wave soldering
method was specifically developed.
If wave soldering is used the following conditions must be
observed for optimal results:

Notes
1. All surface mount (SMD) packages are moisture sensitive. Depending upon the moisture content, the maximum
temperature (with respect to time) and body size of the package, there is a risk that internal or external package
cracks may occur due to vaporization of the moisture in them (the so called popcorn effect). For details, refer to the
Drypack information in the “Data Handbook IC26; Integrated Circuit Packages; Section: Packing Methods”.
2. These packages are not suitable for wave soldering as a solder joint between the printed-circuit board and heatsink
(at bottom version) can not be achieved, and as solder may stick to the heatsink (on top version).
3. If wave soldering is considered, then the package must be placed at a 45° angle to the solder wave direction.
The package footprint must incorporate solder thieves downstream and at the side corners.
4. Wave soldering is only suitable for LQFP, TQFP and QFP packages with a pitch (e) equal to or larger than 0.8 mm;
it is definitely not suitable for packages with a pitch (e) equal to or smaller than 0.65 mm.
5. Wave soldering is only suitable for SSOP and TSSOP packages with a pitch (e) equal to or larger than 0.65 mm; it is
definitely not suitable for packages with a pitch (e) equal to or smaller than 0.5 mm.
