Quad Programmable Up Converter
The ISL5217 Quad Programmable
UpConverter (QPUC) is a QASK/FM
modulator/FDM upconverter designed
for high dynamic range applications such as cellular
basestations. The QPUC combines shaping and interpolation
filters, a complex modulator, and timing and carrier NCOs into a
single package. Each QPUC can create four FDM channels.
Multiple QPUCs can be cascaded digitally to provide for up to 16
FDM channels in multi-channel applications.
The ISL5217 supports both vector and FM modulation. In vector
modulation mode, the QPUC accepts 16-bit I and Q samples to
generate virtually any quadrature AM or PM modulation format.
The QPUC also has two FM modulation modes. In the FM with
pulse shaping mode, the 16-bit frequency samples are pulse
shaped/bandlimited prior to FM modulation. No band limiting filter
follows the FM modulator. This FM mode is useful for GMSK type
modulation formats. In the FM with band limiting filter mode, the
16-bit frequency samples directly drive the FM modulator. The
FM modulator output is filtered to limit the spectral occupancy.
This FM mode is useful for analog FM or FSK modulation
formats.
The QPUC includes an NCO driven interpolation filter, which
allows the input and output sample rate to have an integer
and/or variable relationship. This re-sampling feature
simplifies cascading modulators with sample rates that do not
have harmonic or integer frequency relationships.
The QPUC offers digital output spectral purity that exceeds
100dB at the maximum output sample rate of 104MSPS, for
input sample rates as high as 6.5MSPS.
A 16-bit microprocessor compatible interface is used to load
configuration and baseband data. A programmable FIFO depth
interrupt simplifies the interface to the I and Q input FIFOs.
