The data rate of mobile devices has increased significantly over the evolution modern mobile technologies starting from the first 3G/3.5G technologies (UMTS & WCDMA, HSPA & HSPA+) to 4G LTE. The ability of 4G LTE to support bandwidths up to 20 MHz and to have more spectral efficiency by using high order modulation methods like QAM-64 is of particular importance as the demand for higher wireless data speeds continues to grow fast. LTEAdvanced can aggregate up to 5 carriers (up to 100 MHz) to increase user data rates and capacity for high speed applications. BDTIC A block diagram of a 2G and 3G/4G modem (GSM/EDGE/UMTS/LTE) for smartphone RF front-end (RFFE) is shown below. It consists of a broadband antenna, a band selecting antenna switch, 3G/4G duplexers, high/low band power amplifiers, 3G/4G Low Noise Amplifiers (LNAs) and various Surface Acoustic Wave (SAW) filters. Infineon Technologies is one of the leading companies with broad product portfolio to offer high performance RF front-end components for various mobile and wireless applications by using industry standard silicon process. For the mobile phone front-end, Infineon offers Monolithic Microwave Integrated Circuit (MMIC) SiGe LTE LNA and LNA banks product family (Chapter 2), various RF CMOS primary and diversity antenna switches and antenna tuning elements and Schottky diode for power detectors (Chapter 3). Our SiGe MMIC LNAs and LNA banks with their excellent low noise figure enhance the sensitivity of the RF modem by several dB and offer system layout flexibility by suppressing noise contribution from losses of signal lines and from the SAW filters as well as the receiver. ANT Switch 2G Transceiver IC ANT Power Detector PA Antenna Tuner 3G/4G Transceiver IC Duplexer LNA SAW Example block diagram of a 2G/3G/4G modem www.BDTIC.com/infineon 8 RF and Protection Devices Application Guide for Mobile Communication 2.1 Multiband LNAs for 2G/3G/4G Modems Motivated by increasing demand for mobile broadband services with higher data rates and better quality of service, the modern mobile technology has seen tremendous growth in the recent years from 2G to 3G/3.5G HSPA, HSPA+, 3.9G LTE and recently 4G LTE-Advanced. LTE-Advanced can support data rates of up to 1 Gbps. Such higher requirements are met by using advanced Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) techniques and wider bandwidths up to 100 MHz enabled by Carrier Aggregation (CA). LTE-Advanced can support up to 15 bands of carrier aggregation by three component carrier aggregation scenarios: intra-band contiguous, intraband non-contiguous and inter-band non-contiguous aggregation. This in turn presents new challenges to RF front-end designers such as interference from co-existing bands and harmonic generations. In order to address BDTIC these requirements we need smart LTE low noise amplifiers (LNA) with the following features to achieve outstanding performance. Low Noise Figure: An external LNA or LNA bank boosts the sensitivity of the system by reducing the overall noise figure. In addition due to the size constraint, the modem antenna and the receiver front-end cannot always be placed close to the transceiver IC. The path loss in front of the integrated LNA on the transceiver IC increases the system noise figure significantly. An external LNA physically close to the antenna can help to eliminate the path loss and reduce the system noise figure. Therefore the sensitivity can be improved by several dB, which means the significant increasement of the connectivity range. High Linearity: The presence of increased number of bands at the receiver input creates strong interference leading to high requirements in linearity characteristics such as high input compression point, IMD2 & IIP3 performance. Low Power Consumption: Power consumption becomes even more important in today’s smartphones. The latest LTE-Advanced uses enhanced MIMO techniques with up to 8 streams for downlink and 4 streams for uplink. Infineon’s LNAs and LNA banks have low supply current and an integrated on/off feature which provides for low power consumption and increases stand by time for cellular handsets or other portable, battery-operated wireless applications. High Integration and Simple Control Interface: The demand for size and cost reduction and performance enhancement with easy to use and low parts count has become very important in existing and future generation smartphones. Our MMIC LNAs are highly integrated with input and output either matched or pre-matched, inbuilt temperature and supply voltage stabilization and fully Electro-Static Discharge (ESD) protected circuit design to ensure stable operation and a simple control interface. Infineon’s new LTE LNAs could almost double smartphone data rates and improve the user experience. The product family, consisting of single-band LNA BGA7x1N6 series and quad-band LNA Banks BGM7xxxx4L12, provides a ultra low noise figure, the exact gain and high linearity needed to help smartphone designers to overcome the challenges of LTE or 4G which allows for data rates up to 300 Mbit/s – compared to 56 Mbit/s in the latest UMTS (3G) release. www.BDTIC.com/infineon 9 RF and Protection Devices Application Guide for Mobile Communication The LNAs and LNA banks are based on Infineon’s Silicon Germanium Carbon (SiGe:C) bipolar technology and include built-in ESD protection of 2kV HBM even at the input pins. They are located in the diversity and main antenna paths of the phone and push data rates' limitation, for example, 96% higher than in solutions without LNAs. High linearity assures optimal signal reception even in conditions of poorly isolated antenna and long line losses between antenna and transceiver. The typical sensitivity improvement of more than 3 dB compared to systems without LNAs is achieved in devices with a package size 70% smaller (1.1×0.7 mm²) than previously available LNAs and 61% smaller (1.9×1.1 mm²) than previously available LNA banks. The products are also self-shielded to prevent parasitic interference and require only one external component per LNA. BDTIC There are three single-band LTE LNAs and seven quad-band LNA bank families to address the required band configurations for different world regions, each letter in the series denotes a different frequency band: L for lowband (0.7 GHz to 1.0 GHz); M for mid-band (1.7 GHz to 2.2 GHz); and H for high-band (2.3 GHz to 2.7 GHz). For example, BGM7MLLM4L12 stands for two low-band LNAs (LNA 2 and LNA3) and two mid-band LNAs (LNA 1 and LNA 4) are integrated into one package. They are shipped in RoHS-compliant TSNP-6-2 or TSLP-12-4 plastic packages. LNA Bank from Duplexer LNA1 BPF LNA2 3G/4G Transceiver IC LNA3 LNA4 LNA for the main path The TDD mode LTE system coexists with FDD mode LTE is gaining the importance with the years. Recent trend of end users to download more and more data anytime and anywhere increases the need of more bandwidth and an additional receiver channel called “diversity path” in smartphones. In most mobile phones now, there is more than one antenna to employ the space diversity. The space diversity exploits the multipath propagation phenomenon of microwave to enhance the reception of cellular signals. The diversity antenna is usually located far from the main antenna and the transceiver IC. The received signal therefore undergoes the losses along the path from the diversity switch to the transceiver IC. We need to use a LNA or LNA bank closer to the diversity switch to overcome this and enhance the sensitivity of the system. The LNAs / LNA banks improve the receiver performance significantly by reducing the noise contribution of long route line between the www.BDTIC.com/infineon 10 RF and Protection Devices Application Guide for Mobile Communication diversity antenna and the transceiver IC, losses incurred due to the band pass filter and noise figure of the transceiver.

These switches can also be realized using other technologies like Gallium Arsenide (GaAs) or the more classical PIN diodes. However, using CMOS design on Si substrate offers many advantages over its counterparts. The CMOS process is inherently less expensive than GaAs, so the devices themselves are less expensive. The CMOS process also enables the driver and control circuitry to be integrated on the same die with the switch, and to be operated via a single control pin. This simplifies the design process, and reduces the parts count. Infineon’s RF CMOS switches are the first switches on the market, based purely on the industrial standard CMOS process which offers low insertion loss, high isolation and low harmonics generation for high volume BDTIC production. They are widely used for band selection/switching or diversity switching at the antenna. All Infineon RF switches do not require external DC blocking capacitors and the control logic interface viz. General Purpose Input/Output (GPIO), Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) or Mobile Industry Processor Interface (MIPI) is fully integrated. With CMOS compatible logic levels, the need of external level shifters is eliminated. The classical approach of using PIN diodes as switches is getting extinct due to their high current consumption, slow switching speeds and the requirement of too many external components and higher complexity of mobile phone systems. CMOS is thus the technology of choice for RF switches due to their small size, low cost, control logic integration capability and zero external components. In addition to all the above advantages, CMOS switches offer excellent ESD robustness. Infineon offers a wide variety of switches and Antenna Switch Modules (ASMs) ranging from simple switches such as simple Single-Pole Double-Throw (SPDT) to Double-Pole Double-Throw (DPDT) switches to complex high port count configurations, i.e. Single-Pole ten-Throw (SP10T) or Double-Pole fourteen-Throw (DP14T) switches. The power capability ranges from medium (20 dBm) to high power (36 dBm). As for the main path ASM components, Infineon Technologies is using its compact Integrated Passive Device (IPD) technology to integrate harmonic filters for GSM transmit frequencies in miniature module packages. The main antenna switch is required to be highly linear and to provide high isolation between transmit and receive chains, with the lowest insertion loss possible. For architectures that integrate new features such as downlink inter-band carrier aggregation to increase downstream data rates, ASMs are facing new challenges as they have to route two signals, received in different frequency bands, simultaneously. For this kind of applications, the new switches with multiple ports like SP7T+SP7T, or so-called DP14T, can be applied. Infineon’s RF switches are delivered either in discrete TSLP or TSNP packaged components or as Chip-ScalePackages (CSP) for module manufacturers. In this module, our switches are combined with filters (Front-End Module, FEM) or/and duplexers (Front-End Module with Integrated Duplexers, FEMiD). www.BDTIC.com/infineon 14 RF and Protection Devices Application Guide for Mobile Communication 3.1 Application Challenges of Antenna Switches in Modern Mobile Applications Smartphones today can operate across several cellular bands covering GSM/EDGE/CDMA/UMTS/ WCDMA/LTE/TD-SCDMA/TD-LTE/LTE-A. The design of the RF front-end part in modern cellular phones is becoming increasingly complex and demanding due to the increasing number of frequency bands and modes that the phone needs to operate in. One of the main components of RF front-end is the antenna switch that selects which transmitter (TX)/receiver (RX) path can be connected to the antenna. The RF switch has to satisfy high linearity requirement. The following page presents some of the main challenges of antenna switches in mobile applications. BDTIC 2G Main Antenna Multi-Mode Transceiver 3G/4G Diversity Antenna 3G/4G Typical RF front-end in a mobile phone www.BDTIC.com/infineon 15 RF and Protection Devices Application Guide for Mobile Communication Insertion Loss (IL) is an important parameter since the RF switch is placed between the antenna and the radio. Any increase of IL results in an increased system noise figure (NF) at receiver path and reduced transmitted power which causes the reduction of connectivity distance and battery life time. High Isolation between ports is the measure of the signal suppression in excess of the insertion loss between the “off” ports. High isolation in switches is desired to minimize the interference or leakage from other ports. P1dB or P0.1dB Compression Point is a measure for high power capability for RF front-end switches. The P0.1dB specifies the input power at the switch in dBm, at which, the insertion loss of the switch increases by 0.1 dB than the small signal value in the linear region. This value confirms the power handling capability of the switch. Infineon’s switches are measured up to an input power of 30 to 40 dBm and no deterioration in the insertion loss is observed. BDTIC Harmonic Generation is an important parameter for the characterization of a RF switch. RF switches for cellular phones have to deal with high RF levels, up to 36 dBm, even with strong mismatched conditions. With this high RF power at the input of the switch harmonics are generated. These harmonics (e.g. 2nd and 3rd) can disturb other reception bands or cause interference in other RF applications (GPS, WLAN) in own mobile phone or mobile phones nearby. Intermodulation Distortion (IMD2 and IMD3) is the linearity parameter of the device under multi-tone conditions. The intermodulation between each frequency component generates undesired outputs at the sum and difference frequencies of the input tones and at multiples of those sum and difference frequencies. The intermodulation products increase the occupied bandwidth, leading to adjacent channel interference. Digital Control Interface: Traditionally switches are controlled through a parallel scheme called General Purpose Input/Output (GPIO), which involves a set of parallel control pins with pre-defined “high” and “low” logic. More and more designs are moving from this parallel to a serial control scheme, such as the Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI). Recently, several major mobile chipset companies formed the Mobile Industry Processor Interface (MIPI) alliance, aiming to standardize communication between all major components in mobile devices with structured serial commands. Today there are an increasing number of companies adopting MIPI and requiring RF switches used in their mobile devices to be MIPI-compatible.

This technology will allow much improved impedance matching for a single antenna across a wide frequency range, and therefore reduce power stress on the transmitter side and increase sensitivity on the receiver side.

For less complex RF circuits like triple and quad band GSM/EDGE phones, PIN diodes are a good and favorable choice. PIN diodes can be used for switching if there is a requirement on much lower IMD generation in the mobile phone. The following sections demonstrate some switch solutions based on Infineon’s PIN-switch diodes for cost effective phones or base stations. Low barrier Schottky power detection diodes are used for precise output power control after the power amplifier. It helps the transceiver IC to monitor the correct information about the mismatch condition of the mobile phone BDTIC antenna to the environment and adjust signal power accordingly. Key Features of PIN Diodes Insertion Loss and Isolation: Insertion loss is dependent on the low impedance state of the diode in forward bias. Isolation is a measure of the PIN diode switch’s performance in its open state. In a series diode switch, this is primarily dependent on the junction capacitance. These parameters are determined by the forward bias current and reverse voltage. Infineon’s diodes have low capacitance and low resistance which are optimized for applications where ultra-low resistance is required. Switching Time: The carrier life time in a PIN diode dominates the switching speed, i.e., the time required to switch the diode from a low-impedance forward bias state to a high-impedance reverse bias state. www.BDTIC.com/infineon 24 RF and Protection Devices Application Guide for Mobile Communication 3.3.1 Antenna Switch with PIN Diodes & Power Detection with Schottky Diodes PIN Diode Power Detector Power Detector PA PIN Diode λ/4 λ/4 PA PIN Diode BDTIC PIN Diode TX GSM BB IC RX GSM RX DCS RX PCS BB IC TX DCS RF PIN Diode Switches Product1) Application Note rF2) [Ω] @IF [mA] rF2) [Ω] @IF [mA] CT3) [pF] @VR [V] τL4) [ns] Package BAR90-098LRH D BAR90-081LS Q BAR90-02LRH AN058 TR1054 TR146 1.3 3.0 0.8 10.0 0.25 1.0 750 TSLP-4-7 TSSLP-8-1 TSLP-2-7 BAR64-02LRH AN058 12.5 1 2.1 10 0.23 20 1550 TSLP-2-7 AN058 12.5 1 2.1 10 0.23 20 1550 SOT23 AN058 12.5 1 2.1 10 0.23 20 1550 SOT323 on request 12.5 1 2.1 10 0.23 20 1550 SOT143 BAR64-04 BAR64-05 BAR64-06 BAR64-04W BAR64-05W BAR64-06W BAR64-07 Notes: 1) D=Dual; T=Triple; Q=Quadruple; 2) at 100 MHz; 3) at 1 MHz; 4) The carrier life time between the forward bias of IF = 10 mA and reverse bias of IR = 6 or 3 mA; 5) Please visit our website www.infineon.com/rf-pin-diodes for alternative devices.

Today, GNSS is much more than the well-known GPS, which was introduced for civilian use more than a decade ago. Nations around the world are working on their own navigation satellite systems for strategic reasons and also to offer improved user experience. Today, three GNSS systems are operational: the United States GPS, the Russian GLONASS and the Chinese Beidou. The Galileo positioning system being developed by the European Union is expected to be functional by 2014. BDTIC From a civilian usage point, additional systems added to GNSS bring with them the advantages of increased satellite signal reception, increased coverage, higher precision and the facility for additional features such as Search And Rescue (SAR). The most important market segments since 2008 are Personal Navigation Devices (PND) and GNSS enabled mobile phones. The architecture and the performance of the so-called RF front-end is the key contributor to fulfill the strict requirements of the GNSS system, because it consists of the whole lineup between the GNSS antenna and the integrated GNSS chipset. The main challenges for the growing GNSSenabled mobile phone market are to achieve high sensitivity and high immunity against interference of cellular signals driven by government regulations for safety and emergency reasons, for example, in the US and Japan. This means the reception for GPS/GLONASS signals at very low power levels down to less than -160 dBm in mobile phones in the vicinity of co-existing high power cellular signals. In addition, excellent ESD robustness characteristics and low power consumption for long battery usage duration are mandatory features for portable and mobile phones. Infineon Technologies is the market leader in GNSS LNAs for navigation applications in PND and cellular products. Infineon Technologies offers a complete product portfolio to all customers designing high performance flexible RF front-end solutions for GNSS: - Low Noise Amplifiers (LNA): consisting of a wide range of products like high performance MMICs as well as cost effective and high end RF transistors - Front-End Module (FEM): Infineon offers the world’s smallest GPS/GLONASS FEMs with LNAs and band-pass filter(s) integrated into a single tiny package with well-optimized performance for navigation in mobile phones - Transient Voltage Suppression (TVS) Diodes: protecting GNSS antenna reliably up to 20 kV - RF Switches: allow for diversity architecture with active antenna www.BDTIC.com/infineon 28 RF and Protection Devices Application Guide for Mobile Communication Infineon’s GNSS LNA and FEM products have excellent features including low noise figure, high gain, high linearity, high levels of ESD protection and low power consumption to fulfill customer’s needs to satisfy the increasing requirements of GNSS systems. Infineon offers LNAs optimized for high linearity and high gain. Our latest GNSS LNA products covering all current and future GNSS systems include BGA924 and BGA824 with very low noise figure and high Out-of-Band (OoB) IP3 to enhance the interference immunity. BGA925L6 and BGA825L6 are two of the smallest GNSS LNAs worldwide with low noise figure and high OoB BDTIC performance and designed to work under extreme jamming conditions. BGA725L6 is one of the smallest GNSS LNA with high gain and low noise. According to various GPS/GLONASS antenna designs in mobile phones, new GPS/GLONASS FEM products are released with the following two topologies: - SAW-Filter/LNA Topology: it enables system design with flexibility to place the GPS/GLONASS antenna without degradation of the GPS/GLONASS performance. -> BM1033N7, BGM1034N7, BGM1043N7 and BGM1044N7 - Notch Filter/SAW-Filter/LNA Topology: With an additional integrated notch filter in front of the GNSS FEM, the GNSS is enhanced to reject the mobile jammer signals, especially at LTE Band-13 to ensure the GNSS reception even with weak GNSS and high jammer signal conditions. All Infineon GNSS FEM products offer an ESD robustness at the RF input pin higher than 6 kV according to IEC61000-4-2 contact discharge standard.

This poses a challenge on the sensitivity of the system. An external LNA with low noise figure and high gain is required to boost the sensitivity of the system and Time-To-First Fix (TTFF). High Linearity: In modern mobile phones, the GNSS signals are co-habited by strong interfering cellular BDTIC signals. The cellular signals can mix to produce Intermodulation products exactly in the GNSS receiver frequency band. To enhance interference immunity of the GNSS systems, LNAs with high linearity characteristics such as input IP3 and input P1dB are required. Low Current Consumption: Power consumption is an important feature in GNSS devices which are mainly battery operated mobile devices. Infineon’s LNAs have an integrated power on/off feature which provides for low power consumption and increased stand-by time for GNSS handsets. Moreover, the low current consumption (3.6 mA) makes Infineon’s LNAs suitable for portable technology like GNSS receivers and mobile phones. 4.1.2 Key Features of Surface Acoustic Wave (SAW) Filters Low Insertion Loss: The pre-filter should not contribute to losses in the system since it is the first block after the antenna in the receiver chain, which will impact the noise figure of the receiver system significantly. Infineon’s SAW filters introduce an insertion loss of only 1 dB in the pass band. High Out-of-Band Rejection: The strong cellular signals, coexisting in cellphone can drive the GNSS LNA into saturation. These signals can be filtered out with a pre-filter and post-filter to prevent interferences in later stages. The SAW filter should have high out-of-band rejection. Infineon’s SAW filters have high out-of-band rejection of about 34 dB. High Linearity Capability: It is verified that not only LNA, but also the SAW filter plays an important role to introduce out-of-band intermodulation products of mobile signals which fall into the GNSS bands directly. Therefore it is a key requirement for a GNSS SAW filter to have high linear surface acoustic resonators, especially at the input stage resonators of the SAW filter. www.BDTIC.com/infineon 30 RF and Protection Devices Application Guide for Mobile Communication 4.2 System Challenges for Modern GNSS Reception in Mobile Devices GNSS receivers for mobile or handheld devices are always under the threat of high power cellular signals. Due to the coexistence of GNSS and cellular services, there is a strong coupling of the DCS/PCS and cellular (GSM/CDMA/3G/LTE) signals to the GPS receiver. The performance of a standard integrated GNSS receiver chip cannot meet the specifications required for the present systems. An external RF front-end is essential to achieve this required performance. The most important prerequisites for the front-end of a GNSS receiver are low noise figure and sufficient amplification of the desired signal together with high attenuation of the jammer signals. We need an external LNA with low noise figure and high gain preceded by a band pass filter with low BDTIC insertion loss and high out-of-band attenuation to achieve this. GNSS receiver sensitivity enhancement with an external LNA In the circuit chain of a receiver, the noise figure of the first stage LNA dominates the overall system noise figure. Consider a GNSS receiver IC with noise figure of 2.3 dB. By adding Infineon’s LNA BGA824N6 with NF 0.6 dB and Gain 17 dB to the front of the receiver IC, the noise factor Fsys of the receiver system can be expressed by using Friis Formula: 𝐹sys = 𝐹LNA + 𝐹receiver − 1 𝐺LNA Using the above equation, 𝐹sys = 1.16. Therefore, 𝑁𝐹sys = 10 log 𝐹sys = 0.66 dB This means, the sensitivity of the GNSS system can be improved by 1.6 dB through the external LNA. We can see that the noise figure of the system is dominated by the noise figure and gain of the first stage LNA. Adding a LNA with very low noise figure and excellent linear performance improve the overall receiver sensitivity which leads to low TTFF and more GNSS coverage in real field applications at the end user. www.BDTIC.com/infineon 31 RF and Protection Devices Application Guide for Mobile Communication Noise Figure degradation due to high power of jammer signal High power interfering jammer signals may leak into the GNSS receiver and affect the receiver’s sensitivity by overdriving the receiver’s LNA. This presents a major challenge to RF front designers to maintain the receiver’s sensitivity for weak incoming GNSS signals. It is important to use an external LNA with a very good noise performance in the presence of strong interfering signals. That means that the LNA needs to inhabit outstanding out-of-band P1dB performance against jammer signal to not be “desensitized”. The following figure shows the noise figure degradation of a LNA due to high power of incoming jammer signals. BDTIC 0.6 1575 MHz 0.5 1598 MHz 1602 MHz 1606 MHz Noise figure degradation [dB] 0.4 0.3 0.2 0.1 0 -0.1 0 5 10 15 20 25 Jammer Power at 1710 MHz [dBm] Desensitization effect due to jammer signal www.BDTIC.com/infineon 32 30 RF and Protection Devices Application Guide for Mobile Communication Out-of-band interference In today’s smartphones with integrated multi-functionality, GNSS and GSM/EDGE/UMTS/LTE coexist in a compact area. Coupling from GSM/EDGE/UMTS/LTE transmitter to GPS receiver results in out-of-band (OoB) intermixing of signals at GSM/EDGE/UMTS/LTE bands. For example GSM 1712.7 MHz and UMTS 1850 MHz produce third-order intermodulation product at GPS frequency. This effect desensitizes the GPS receiver and decreases its performance. Out-of-band measurements are used to quantify this. The out-of-band IIP3 can be calculated as follows. Out-of-band Input 𝐼𝑃3 = 𝑃1IN + [𝑃2IN − (𝐼𝑀3out_GPS − 𝐺𝑎𝑖𝑛at GPS )]⁄2 BDTIC The following figure demonstrates the out-of-band IP3 measurement. A GSM signal of frequency f1IN = 1713 MHz and power P1IN = -20 dBm and UMTS signal of frequency f2IN = 1851 MHz and power P2IN = -20 dBm are used. The third order intermodulation product, 2×f1IN – f2IN, is located at the GPS band. Using the above equation, the OoB IIP3 can be calculated as 𝐼𝐼𝑃3 = −20 + [−20 − (−64.8 − 15.81) )]⁄2 = 10.3 dBm, Note: 1) Gain at GPS is from BGA925L6. which is well above the specified value for mobile GNSS application, e.g. about +7 dBm. Out-of-band IIP3 measurement www.BDTIC.com/infineon 33 RF and Protection Devices Application Guide for Mobile Communication LTE Band 13 interference The 2nd harmonic of LTE band-13 (700 MHz) is located in the GNSS band at 1575 MHz. The following block diagram depicts the interference measurement of LTE band-13 with the GNSS band of 1575 MHz. H2 of LTE band 13 1575.52 MHz -80 dBm LTE band 13 787.76 MHz +25 dBm 3G/4G Transceiver IC BDTIC 9 dB worst case Isolation GNSS Receiver IC H2 of LTE band 13 1575.52 MHz H2 of LTE band 13 1575.52 MHz -89 dBm In this case, considering a worst case isolation of 9 dB between the both antennas, jammer frequency fLTE =787.76 MHz the power of the second harmonic fH2 = 1575.52 MHz is -89 dBm at the GPS antenna. Infineon MMICs and FEMs provide very high out-of-band signal rejection along with high input compression point. As an example, BGM1043N7 shows a rejection of -70 dBm.

Wi-Fi according to IEEE 802.11b/g/n at 2.4 GHz is widely implemented over years. Today Wi-Fi is not only used for the high data rate access to the internet, but also in different applications like home entertainment with wireless high-quality multimedia signal transmission such as Wireless HDMI in TV-sets, DVD-players etc. Due to the cloudy WLAN network at 2.4 GHz, the Wi-Fi applications at 5–6 GHz according to IEEE 802.11a/ac/n are gaining focus. Wireless@Home devices such as home networking notebooks, mass data storages and printers implement 5-6 GHz Wi-Fi features into their system to offer high-speed wireless connection. BDTIC The 802.11n operates at both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz while supporting multiple data streams to increase the speed and throughput. With the arrival of new wireless devices such as tablets, wireless VoIP devices, game consoles, ebooks etc. the requirements on wireless data quality have become more stringent than ever. New WLAN standards are being developed to cater to these high throughput requirements by using i) Higher order modulation schemes ii) Wider channel bandwidth iii) Multiple data streams The draft 802.11ac is an extension of 802.11n, providing a minimum of 500 Mbps single link and up to 1 Gbps overall throughput, running in the 5 GHz band. The draft 802.11ad provides up to 7 Gbps throughput using approximately 2 GHz of spectrum at 60 GHz over a short range . The following table shows the evolving trend of the IEEE 802.11 standards.

Low Noise Figure: A Wi-Fi router has to receive relatively weak signals from Wi-Fi enabled devices such as mobile phones. Therefore, it should have high sensitivity to detect a weak signal in the presence of strong interfering signals. The sensitivity of the receiver can be improved the receiver by using a low noise amplifier (LNA) as the first block of the receiver front-end to reduce the noise figure of the overall system. High Linearity: WLAN systems are subject to co-channel interference and also interference from strong co- BDTIC existing cellular signals. High linearity characteristics such as IIP3 and input compression point are required to improve an application's ability to distinguish between desired signals and spurious signals received close together. The contribution of an external LNA in a WLAN front-end system can be demonstrated as follows: Let’s consider an 802.11a system for 54 Mbps requiring a minimum S/N (Signal-to-Noise Ratio) of 25 dB to achieve a BER (Bit Error Rate) better than 1e-5. For the WLAN receiver chipset with a noise figure NFreceiver of 2 dB without LNA, the sensitivity S of -75 dBm can be calculated as: 𝑆 𝑆 = 𝑁𝐹 + 𝑁0 + ( ) 𝑁 min Where, 𝑁o = 10 log10 kTB = −102 dBm N0: thermal noise floor for 20 MHz BW, 𝑆 = 2 dB − 102 dBm + 25 dB = −75 dBm NF: the noise figure of the receiver S: system sensitivity In order to improve the sensitivity, the system noise figure needs to be reduced. In the case of adding LNA in front of the WLAN receiver, the overall system noise figure Fsys of the cascaded receiver system can be calculated using the Friis formula, 𝐹sys = 𝐹LNA + 𝐹receiver − 1 𝐺LNA It can be seen that the noise figure of function blocks after the first stage LNA is suppressed by the amplification factor of the LNA, therefore the system is dominated mainly by the noise figure of the first LNA block. It is therefore important to use a low noise, high gain amplifier in the receiver front-end chain to improve the overall system noise figure and therefore the sensitivity. Using Infineon’s LNA BFR840L3RHESD with noise figure NF of 0.92 dB and Gain of 14.7 dB (@5.9 GHz), the overall NFsys can be calculated as www.BDTIC.com/infineon 40 RF and Protection Devices Application Guide for Mobile Communication 𝐹sys = 1.24 + 1.58 − 1 = 1.25 54.95 𝑁𝐹sys = 10 log 𝐹sys = 0.97 dB This results in improving the receiver sensitivity to -76 dBm with a net improvement of 1 dB and a corresponding increase in range by approximately 20% with 54 Mbps data rate. The resulted 1 dB improvement in receiver sensitivity is crucial today with designers across the globe trying to achieve state of the art connectivity with their products. One another long-range and high data rate wireless standard, WiMAX (IEEE 802.16e) at 2.3 GHz to 2.7 GHz, 3.3 GHz to 3.7 GHz and 5.725 GHz to 5.8 GHz, plays an important role in certain areas for fast setup of the high BDTIC data rate, last mile wireless communication infrastructure where no 3G/4G networks are available e.g. in emerging markets or country sides. WiMAX is designed for high data rate wireless communication up to 70 Mbps, which is suitable for fixed point-to-point (P2P) communication and also for portable or mobile connections. Infineon offers a wide RF product portfolio for both applications Wi-Fi and WiMAX. It includes: - discrete transistors & MMIC LNAs, - power detection diodes, - as well as RF CMOS and pin diode switches. For these kinds of high speed, high data rate wireless communication standards, it is essential to ensure the quality of the link path. Major performance criteria of these equipment have to be fulfilled, namely: sensitivity, signal strength and interference immunity with proper link budget. In addition, Infineon also offers RF ESD protection diodes. The ESD protection diode series, ESD-112-B102ELS and ESD103-B1-02EL/02ELS, have a line capacitance value of only 0.2 pF and 0.1 pF respectively and can protect the system from ESD strikes up to 8 kV contact discharge according to the IEC-61000-4-2 standard. www.BDTIC.com/infineon 41 RF and Protection Devices Application Guide for Mobile Communication 5.2 Dual-Band (2.4–6.0 GHz) WLAN (IEEE 802.11a/b/g/n) Front-End 2.4 GHz LNA Dual-Band WLAN: 2.4 – 6 GHz RX Diplexer RXg RXa SPDT Switch 5 GHz LNA ESD Diode Transceiver IC TXg 2.4 GHz PA BDTIC TX Diplexer Power Detector 5 GHz PA TXa Dual-band (2.4–6.0 GHz) WLAN (IEEE 802.11a/b/g/n) Bluetooth 2.4 GHz LNA Dual-Band WLAN: 2.4 – 6 GHz + Bluetooth RXn SP3T Switch Power Detector Diplexer TXn 2.4 GHz PA Transceiver IC 5 GHz LNA ESD Diode RXac SPDT Switch Power Detector 5 GHz PA TXac Dual-band (2.4–6.0 GHz) WLAN (IEEE 802.11a/b/g/n) and Bluetooth front-end www.BDTIC.com/infineon 42 RF and Protection Devices Application Guide for Mobile Communication RF Transistor LNAs Application Note Gain [dB] NF [dB] IP-1dB [dBm] IIP3 [dBm] Supply [V] Current [mA] Package BFP842ESD AN296 AN322 18.6 19.3 0.7 0.8 -10.1 -9.9 3.6 2.6 3.0 11.7 11.9 SOT343 BFP840FESD AN320 20.6 1.1 -16.2 -7.2 3.0 14.1 TSFP-4 BFP760 AN310 AN324 16.7 0.9 -9.7 -10.1 -0.2 0.9 3.0 14.5 SOT343 BFP740F AN171 17.4 0.8 -13 -3 3.6 14.7 TSFP-4 BFP740FESD AN217 17.6 0.8 -7.5 -4 3.3 13.0 SOT343 BFP640ESD AN218 16.5 0.8 -12 +9 3.0 7.3 SOT343 BFP640FESD AN129 15.5 0.9 -11 0 3.0 6.3 TSFP-4 AN288 AN316 AN317 17.7 16.0 16.0 1.0 1.1 1.1 -11.4 -10.8 -9.5 -2.1 -1 0.5 3.0 9.1 SOT343 18.3 1.1 -9.9 -0.7 3.0 14.0 TSFP-4 15.1 1.0 -8 +2 3.0 9.4 TSLP-3-9 11.9 1.1 -2.7 9.2 3.0 11.2 SOT343 SOT343 Product 2.4 GHz LNA BDTIC 5 GHz LNA BFP840ESD BFP840FESD BFR840L3RHESD BFP760 AN289 AN299 AN281 AN290 AN303 AN323 BFP740ESD AN219 15.5 1.3 -6 +7 3.0 14.7 BFP740FESD AN220 17.1 1.4 -9 +1 3.0 14.8 TSFP-4 BFR740L3RH AN170 14.3 1.3 -5 +4 3.0 12.9 TSLP-3-9 BFP720ESD on request 15.2 0.9 -8 +5 3.0 10.3 SOT343 BFP720FESD on request 18.6 1.6 -8 +2 3.0 12.2 TSFP-4 2.4 GHz & 5 GHz Broadband LNA BFP843 BFP843F BFR843EL3 AN312 AN315 AN307 19.5/14.7 19.8/15.9 18.5/13.3 1.1/1.4 1.1/1.3 1.0/1.3 -12.3/-8.4 -12.0/-8.9 -12.1/-7.5 -2.1/1.3 -2.4/-1.5 -1.9/2.8 3.0 3.0 3.0 13.8 13.0 12.2 SOT343 TSFP-4 TSLP-3-9 BFP840ESD BFP840FESD BFR840L3RHESD AN292 18.5/15 1.1/1.4 -15/-12.6 -5.5/0.3 3.0 9.4 SOT343 TSFP-4 TSLP-3-9 BFP740ESD BFP740FESD AN189 17.5/13.5 1.3/1.3 -16/-8 -8/+4 2.8 12.0 SOT343 TSFP-4 BFR740L3RH AN115 15.7/10.0 1.1/1.3 -11/-5 0/+7 3.0 10.0 TSLP-3-9 BFP720ESD BFP720FESD AN187 14.0/12.0 1.2/1.4 -15/-5 -9/+6 2.8 13.0 SOT343 TSFP-4 Note: Please visit our website www.infineon.com/lna up to 12 GHz for alternative devices. www.BDTIC.com/infineon 43 RF and Protection Devices Application Guide for Mobile Communication RF MMIC LNAs Application Note Gain [dB] NF [dB] IP-1dB [dBm] IIP3 [dBm] Supply [V] Current [mA] Package BGB741L7ESD AN207 TR102 17.5 18.7 1.5 1.1 -4.0 -6.7 -1.2 +2 3.0 10.0 10.8 TSLP-7-1 BGB707L7ESD AN195 TR170 15 14.2 1.2 -9. -8 -1.4 -4 2.8 5.6 5.3 TSLP-7-1 BGA622 AN069 12.6 1.3 -15 -4 2.8 5.4 SOT343 12 2.0 -1 8.5 3.0 6 TSLP-7-1 Product 2.4 GHz LNA 5 GHz LNA AN207 BGB741L7ESD BDTIC TR10121) BGB707L7ESD Notes: 1) on request; 13.3 2.3 -6 -4.3 2.8 3.2 TSLP-7-1 2) Please visit our website www.infineon.com/rf-mmic for alternative devices.

MIMO exploits a radio-wave phenomenon called multipath propagation: transmitted information bounces off walls, doors, and other objects, taking multiple paths to reach the receiving antennas. MIMO harnesses multipath with the antenna diversity technique known as space-division multiplexing. The transmitter IC BDTIC multiplexes a data stream into multiple spatial streams, and transmits each spatial stream through separate antennas to corresponding antennas on the receiving end. Doubling the number of spatial streams from one to two effectively doubles the data rate. However, increased power consumption due to the presence of multiple transmitter and receiver chains presents a major challenge in optimizing the battery life of the device. Infineon’s products offer very low power consumption thus optimizing the battery life of the device. The current IEEE 802.11n provides up to four spatial streams i.e., 4x4 MIMO. The draft IEEE 802.11ac supports up to 8 spatial streams including Multi-User MIMO (MU-MIMO). MU-MIMO is an advanced MIMO technique which enables multiple users to communicate with the transmitter. The following figures show examples of some MIMO configurations. In the following pages, several practical implementations of single-band and dual-band WLAN MIMO front-ends are illustrated.

Today, FM radio is an integral part of almost all mobile phones. In a common mobile phone, the headset cable serves as an antenna for FM reception, wherein the antenna size (~75 cm) is a bit relaxed. There is a clear market trend to be able to use FM radio also without the headset cable. Then, antenna needs to be integrated inside the phone. But in this case, the space constraint poses a challenge on the antenna design. Shrinking the size of the antenna introduces a high loss in the system which deteriorates the receiver BDTIC performance, namely the receiver sensitivity. The major FM topologies widely used in the market are: - FM RX only (Application 1): where only the FM radio receive function is implemented - FM TX and RX (Application 2): where the FM path is not only used for FM radio reception but also for FM signal transmission. It enables music streaming from the mobile phone to other FM receive systems such as car radio and home hi-fi system. Infineon’s low noise amplifiers (LNA) for mobile FM application include MMICs BGB707L7ESD, BGB717L7ESD and BGB719N7ESD as well as low cost transistors such as BFR340F. They solve the problem of the short FM antenna in mobile phones through better impedance match between the FM antenna and the FM receiver, therefore, they can keep the system signal-to-noise ratio as good as the headset. BGB707L7ESD offers the flexibility to fit various antenna and receiver input impedances. The highly integrated BGB719N7ESD is the compact solution which offers the best performance for high ohmic antenna and 50 Ohm receiver input impedance. The integrated active biasing enables consistent stable operation with varying temperature and process variations. It finds its application in all kinds of mobile devices like mobile phones, PDAs, portable FM radio, MP3 players etc. Putting Infineon’s ESD protection diode from ESD-112-B1-02ELS and ESD103-B1-02EL/02ELS, series in front of the LNA increases the system’s ESD robustness up to 8 kV contact discharge (IEC61000-4-2) at the RF input.

The technology is a simple extension of the ISO/IEC 14443 proximity-card standard (proximity card, RFID) that combines the interface of a smartcard and a reader into a single device. A NFC device can communicate with both existing ISO/IEC 14443 smartcards and readers, as well as with other NFC devices, and is thereby compatible with existing contactless infrastructure already in use for public transportation and payment. It operates within the globally available and unlicensed radio frequency ISM band (Industrial, Scientific and Medical) of 13.56 MHz. Plenty of applications BDTIC are present in the market yet, or will enter the market soon. Mobile Commerce: - Mobile ticketing - for airplanes, for public transport, for concerts/events - Mobile payment - the device acts as a debit/ credit payment card - Electronic money - like a stored value card Proof of Identity: - Access control for buildings, or IT equipments - Electronic keys - car keys, house/office keys, hotel room keys, etc. NFC can be used to configure and initiate other wireless network connections such as Bluetooth, WiFi. The time consuming configuration procedure for identification to a Bluetooth or WiFi system is reduced by a “one touch” of two mobiles equipped with NFC devices. To provide the required security level for all these applications, the NFC modem is combined with a secure controller (NFC module). In a mobile phone the NFC module is also linked to the SIM card. In a mobile phone the NFC front-end is often separated into the TX driver with the EMC filter and RX signal decoupling and the high impedance 13.56 MHz resonator. The 13.56 MHz resonator includes the loop antenna (resonator´s inductance) and a parallel capacitor (resonator’s capacitance). Because of the loop antenna size, the 13.56 MHZ resonance circuit is located often in the bottom shell of the mobile, which can be removed by the user. An interface is generated inside the NFC front-end which then becomes ESD critical. A proper ESD protection becomes mandatory to protect the EMI filter and the driver of the NFC front-end, located on main mobile phone PCB.

The race to pack more and more high-speed functions in a smaller space accelerates miniaturization roadmaps. However, the downscale of semiconductor chips together with the increase of doping levels results in a dramatic reduction of the thin gate oxide layer and the width of the pn-junction in semiconductor chips. This, in combination with greater circuit population, increases the susceptibility of the semiconductor chip to ESD. The subsequent failures of the electronic equipment can be noticed as hard failures, latent damage or temporary malfunction. Hard failures are easier to spot, and in general require the failed device to be replaced. BDTIC In the best case the failure will be detected before the equipment leaves the factory and customers will never receive it. Failures leading to temporary malfunction of equipment or latent failures are quite common and very difficult to detect or trace in the field. Temporary malfunctions may go unreported but can result in negative customer impressions as the user may need to reset the equipment. A product recall for swapping or repairing due to ESD failures may cause the company a cost several times higher than the cost of the device itself. An efficient system design normally includes the implementation of a shielded chassis in order to minimize ESD risks. Nevertheless, ESD strikes represent a permanent threat to device reliability as they can easily find a way to bypass the shielded chassis and be injected into the IC/ASICs. Connectors and antennas exposed to the outside world are possible entry points of electrostatic discharges generated by end users. The only way to ensure stable operation and maximum reliability at the system level is to ensure that equipment is properly protected against electrostatic discharge and transients by an external protection device. Infineon’s Value Proposition Improve ESD immunity at system level by providing first-class protection beyond IEC61000-4-2 level 4 standard. - Superior multi-strike absorption capability. - Safe and stable clamping voltages to protect even the most sensitive electronic equipment. - Protection devices that fully comply with high-speed signal quality requirements. - Array solutions that boost space saving in the board and reduce part count. - Easy-to-use single devices for space-constrained applications. - Discrete components that drain extremely low leakage currents and help to extend battery duration. - Packages enabling easy PCB layout.

Following is a short overview of the available TVS protection devices from Infineon for various RF and digital interfaces of mobile phones to the external world.

BDTIC Interface protection with discrete ESD TVS diodes www.BDTIC.com/infineon 69 RF and Protection Devices Application Guide for Mobile Communication 8.1.1 General Purpose TVS Diodes e.g. for Human Interface Devices, Audio Ports and SIM-Card / µSD card ESD Protection In a modern mobile phone there are a lot of access points open to external for ESD strikes to reach the inner PCB, such as the charging port, audio ports (line out, headset jack) and data interfaces (USB). Another very severe path for the ESD strike is bottoms, air-gaps in the enclosure or the microphone/speaker. Often the point of entrance for the ESD strike is not obvious. To provide proper ESD protection for the inner print circuit board, it is mandatory to place fast responding TVS protection diodes at dedicated locations. Depending on the position to be protected, for example where the signal frequency is low and therefore device capacitance does not matter, general purpose TVS diodes can be BDTIC used. They are listed in the table “TVS ESD Diodes for general purpose application”. For high speed data lines dedicated low capacitance TVS diodes must be used to avoid any impact on signal integrity. Please refer to chapter “High-Speed Digital Interface Switching and Protection” regarding these low capacitance TVS diodes.

This is mandatory to ensure the functionality of the mobile phones. For application where a high number of I/Os must be protected regarding ESD and EMI a smart integration of the required protection features keeps the PCB space small and the layout easy. SD and µSD card provides six high speed lines and one Vcc line. In a lot of applications these lines are exposed to ESD events during the mobile phone use or especially during the insertion / remove of the SD / µSD card. BDTIC State of the art SD / µSD card are working in UHS-I Mode, resulting in 208 MHz clock rate. To avoid any impact on signal integrity (SI) or rise/fall time, the device capacitance must be minimized. The required EMI protection is provided by the EMI resistor in conjunction with the load capacitance present in the SD / µSD link. The Infineon BGF148 bases on a “PI” structure with a 20 Ohm EMI resistor. Line capacitance is about 1 pF. In combination with the load capacitance of 10 pF max (according µSD-card spec.) the EMI filter response is generated.

Today’s battery terminals are marked with colors and the terminal posts itself are mechanically different, nevertheless the possibility for reverse battery is still present, at least for short connection duration. For these systems, a designer must ensure that any flow of reverse current is low enough to avoid damaging the circuit or the battery. A variety of circuits can be used to achieve this. The easiest way for reverse battery protection would be a series diode in the positive supply line of the electronic control unit (ECU) accordingly the load.
