MOBILE HANDSET POWER CONTROL EXAMPLES

Figure 39 shows a complete power amplifier control circuit for a

dual mode handset. This circuit is applicable to any dual mode

handset using TDMA or CDMA technologies. The PF08107B

(Hitachi) is driven by a nominal power level of 3 dBm. Some of

the output power from the PA is coupled off using an

LDC15D190A0007A (Murata) directional coupler. This has a

coupling factor of approximately 19 dB for its lower frequency

band (897.5 MHz ± 17.5 MHz) and 14 dB for its upper band

(1747.5 MHz ± 37.5 MHz) and an insertion loss of 0.38 dB

and 0.45 dB, respectively. Because the PF08107B transmits a

maximum power level of 35 dBm, additional attenuation of

15 dB is required before the coupled signal is applied to

the AD8314.

Figure 39. A Dual Mode Power Amplifier Control Circuit

The setpoint voltage, in the 0 V to 1.1 V range, is applied to the

VSET pin of the AD8314. This is typically supplied by a DAC.

This voltage is compared to the input level of the AD8314. Any

imbalance between VSET and the RF input level is corrected by

V_DN, which drives the VAPC (gain control) of the power

amplifier. V_DN reaches a maximum value of approximately

1.9 V on a 2.7 V supply (this is higher for higher supply

voltages) while delivering approximately 3 mA to the VAPC input.

A filter capacitor (CF) must be used to stabilize the loop. The

choice of CF depends to a large degree on the gain control

dynamics of the power amplifier, something that is frequently

characterized poorly, so some trial and error can be necessary.

In this example, a 220 pF capacitor gives the loop sufficient

speed to follow the GSM and DCS1800 time slot ramping

profiles, while still having a stable, critically damped response.
