FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
The functional partitioning of the Z87001 is shown in Fig-
ure 2. The chip consists of a receiver, a transmitter, and
several additional functional blocks.The receiver consists
of the following blocks:
s Receive 1-bit ADC
s Demodulator, including:
– IF Downconverter
– AFC (Automatic Frequency Control)
– Limiter-Discriminator
– Matched Filter
– Bit Synchronizer
– Bit Inversion
– Frame Synchronizer (unique word detector)
– SNR Detector
s Receive Frame Timing Counter
s Receive Buffer and Voice Interface
The Transmitter Consists of the Following Blocks:
s Transmit Buffer and Voice Interface
s Transmit Frame Timing Counter (used on base station
only)
s Modulator, including:
– NCO
– Bit Inversion
s Transmit 4-Bit DAC
In Addition, there are the following Shared Blocks.
s Event Trigger Block, Controlling:
– Transmit/Receive Switch
– Power On/Off Switches (Modulator, Demodulator,
RF Module)
– Antenna Switch Control (used on Base Station
only for Antenna Diversity)
s 4-Bit DAC for Setting Transmit Power Level
s 8-Bit ADC for Sampling the Received Signal Strength
Indicator (RSSI)
s DSP Core Processor
s Two 16-Bit General-Purpose I/O Ports
s Z87010 ADPCM Processor Interface
Basic Operation
The transmitter and receiver operate in time-division du-
plex (TDD): handset and base station transmit and receive
alternately. The TDD duty cycle lasts 4 ms and consists of
the following events:
s At the beginning of the cycle, the frequency is changed
(hopping)
s The base station transmits a frame of 144 bits while the
handset receives
s The handset then transmits a frame of 148 bits while the
base receives.
