Modes of operation
Mode NO_SUPPLY BACK_UP PWR_OFF Description (dead) mode means that the main battery is not present or its voltage is too low (below RETU master reset threshold) and that the back-up battery voltage is too low. The main battery is not present or its voltage is too low but back-up battery voltage is adequate and the 32kHz oscillator is running (RTC is on). In this mode (warm), the main battery is present and its voltage is over RETU master reset threshold. All regulators are disabled, PurX is on low state, the RTC is on and the oscillator is on. PWR_OFF (cold) mode is almost the same as PWR_OFF (warm), but the RTC and the oscillator are off. RESET mode is a synonym for start-up sequence. In this mode certain regulators are enabled and after they and RFClk have stabilized, the system reset (PurX) is released and PWR_ON mode entered. RESET mode uses 32kHz clock to count the REST mode delay (typically 16ms).

Nokia Customer Care Mode SLEEP Description
RM-1 System Module
SLEEP mode is entered only from PWR_ON mode with the aid of SW when the system's activity is low. There are in principle three different sleep modes: · Helen3 sleep · RAP3G sleep · Helen3 and RAP3G sleep (deep sleep) In SLEEP mode RETU's regulators VIO, VDRAM, VSIM1, VSIM2, VAUX and Vana are in low quiescent current mode (output voltages still present but regulators will not give as much current out). Other regulators including VR1 supplying system clock oscillator are disabled. In SLEEP mode, TAHVO VCORE SMPS regulator is in low quiescent current mode (if sleep mode is not internally disabled). Linear regulator VOUT state depends on the accessory connected to the system connector (Pop-Port), if there is any.
FLASHING
FLASHING mode is for SW downloading. FLASHING mode is not really a RETU or TAHVO state but rather a system state. From RETU and TAHVO point of view, it is like PWR_ON. The state is entered from PWR_ON. It is possible to use external voltage (VPP) during flashing to speed up the process (provided that the memory components support the feature).

The master reset threshold controls the internal reset of Retu / (Tahvo). If battery voltage is above VMSTR, UEME's charging control logic is alive. Also, RTC is active and supplied from the main battery. Above VMSTR UEME allows the system to be powered on although this may not succeed due to voltage drops during start up. SW can also consider battery voltage too low for operation and power down the system.
Power key
The system boots up when power key is pressed (adequate battery voltage, VBAT, present). Power down can be initiated by pressing the power key again (the system is powered down with the aid of SW). Power on key is connected to Retu ASIC via PWRONX signal.

Discrete power supplies are used to generate 2.8V for BT, 1.5V for the camera module, 1.3V/1.5V for Helen3 and 18V for backlight LEDs. The device supports both 1.8V/3V SIM cards which are powered by RETU / VSIM1. RETUs VSIM2 is used to power RS MMC 1.8V only. USB accessories which needs power from the device are powered by TAHVO / VOUT. Because LED driver in TAHVO is not used, the external SMPS is used instead. External LED SMPS is still controlled by TAHVO and powered by battery voltage.
System power-up
After inserting the main battery, regulators started by HW are enabled. SW checks, if there is some reason to keep the power on. If not, the system is set to power off state by watchdog. Power up can be caused by the following reasons: · · · · · · · · · · Power key is pressed Charger is connected RTC alarm occurs MBUS wake-up
After that: Retu activates sleep clock and VANA, VDRAM, VIO and VR1 regulators. Voltage appearing at Retu's RSTX pin is used for enabling Tahvo ASIC. Tahvo enables VCORE regulator and its internal RC-oscillator (600kHz). VCTCXO regulator is set ON and RF clock (main system clock) is started to produce. Retu will release PURX ~ 16ms after power up is enabled (the RF clock is then stable enough). Synchronizing clock (2.4MHz) for Tahvo is started to be produced. After PURX is released and two rising edges of 2.4MHz synchronous clock have been detected in SMPSClk input Tahvo is starting to use that instead of 600kHz internal RC-oscillator. · HW start-up procedure has been finalized and the system is up and running. Now it is possible for SW to switch ON other needed regulators.

Clocking scheme
In BB5.0, two main clocks are provided to the system: 38.4MHz RF clock produced by VCTCXO in RF section and 32.768kHz sleep clock produced by RETU with an external crystal. RF clock is generated only when VCTCXO is powered on by RETU regulator. Regulator itself is activated by SleepX signals from both RAP3G and Helen3. When both CPUs are on sleep, RF clock is stopped. RF clock is used by RAP3G that then provides (divided) 19.2MHz SysClk further to Helen3. Both RAPG and Helen3 have internal PLLs which then create clock signals for other peripheral devices/interfaces like RS MMC, SIM, CCP, I2C and memories. 32k Sleep Clock is always powered on after startup. Sleep clock is used by RAP3G and Helen3 for low-power operation. SMPS Clk is 2.4MHz clock line from RAP3G to Tahvo used for switch mode regulator synchronizing in active mode. In deep sleep mode, when VCTCXO is off, this signal is set to '0'-state. BT Clk is 38.4MHz signal from Hinku ASIC to BT module. CLK600 is 600KHz signal from Tahvo to APE VCORE SMPS. The clock source is internal RC oscillator in Tahvo (during the RM-1 power-up sequence) or RAP3G SMPS Clk divided by 4 after the power-up sequence.

The system provides a radio link that offers a high degree of flexibility to support various applications and product scenarios. Data and control interface for a low power RF module is provided. Data rate is regulated between the master and the slave. The device Bluetooth is based on CSR's BC3 BT ASIC. The UART1 interface handles the transfer of control and data information between Helen3 and the BT system (BC3). The PCM interface is used for audio data transfer between RAP3G and the BT system (BC3).
USB
USB (Universal Serial Bus) provides a wired connectivity between host PC and peripheral devices. USB is a differential serial bus for USB devices. USB controller (RAP3G) supports USB specification revision 2.0 with full speed USB (12Mbps). The device is connected to the USB host through the Pop-PortTM connector. The USB bus is hot plugged capable, which means that USB devices may be plugged in/out at any time.

Figure 97 SIM interface Retu handles SIM card detection and the detection method is based on the BSI line. Due to location of the SIM card removal of the battery causes quick power down of the SIM IF. The Retu SIM1 interface supports both the 1.8V and 3.0V SIM cards. SIM interface voltage is first 1.8V when the SIM card is inserted and if the card does not response to the ATR (Answer To Reset) 3V interface voltage is used. The data communication between the card and the phone is asynchronous half duplex and the clock supplied to cards is 1-5MHz, which is 3.2MHz by default (in GSM system). The data baud rate is SIM card clock frequency divided by 372 (by default), 64, 32 or 16.
RS MMC interface
The reduced size (24mm x 18mm x 1.4mm) multimedia card slot is located under the battery. The device supports RS MMC hot insertion so it is possible to remove/insert the card when the phone is powered on.
Figure 98 Reduced size MMC RS MMC card is connected to the Helen3 processor MMC/SDIO2 (1.8V) interface. MMC interface is shown in the following figure:

Figure 99 MMC interface The basic multimedia card concept is based on the following communication signals CLK, CMD and DAT. With each cycle of the CLK signal one bit transfer on the DAT and CMD line is done. The maximum CLK frequency is 20MHz (specified in multimedia card specification). Maximum used CLK frequency at the time is 16MHz. CMD is a bi-directional command channel used for card initialization and data transfer commands. CMD signal has two operational modes open-drain and push-pull mode. Open-drain mode is used for card initialization and pushpull mode for fast command transfer. CMD commands are sent by the host and CMD responses are sent by the card. DAT is a bi-directional data channel, which operates at push-pull mode. The detection of RS MMC card removal/insertion is done via RS MMC cover switch. Removing RS MMC while writing to RS MMC may corrupt data in RS MMC. RS MMC cover switch gives an interrupt to the SW while the cover is opened or closed. After RS MMC cover lid opening (RS MMC SW signal is connected to GND via cover switch) the SW power down the RS MMC card and switches off the RS MMC power supply (VSIM2). When the RS MMC cover lid is closed (RS MMC SW signal is internally connected in Helen3 to 1.8V) the card should be identified if card exists.

NOR is used for ISA SW code and PMM data and CDSP SW code. 16-bit wide SDRAM interface consists of DDR SDRAM controller from ARM, DCDL/DLLs and wrapper logic. 32-bit wide flash interface is implemented by using EMC module. SDRAM core voltage (1.8V) is generated from Retu VDRAM and I/O voltage (1.8V) is from VIO. NOR flash uses VIO for both core and I/O voltages.
Combo memory (Helen 3)
The application memory of the device consists of NAND/DDR combo memory. Stacked DDR/NAND application memory has 256 Mbit of DDR memory and 256 Mbit of flash memory. DDR DRAM memory is stacked above the NAND flash. Helen 3 includes a 16-bit dedicated memory interface called external memory interface fast (EMIFF). This is used to support interface for DDR memory. OMAP1610 provides also NAND flash controller located on the shared peripheral bus, providing support for 8-bit NAND flash. The interface requires an 8-bit address bus multiplexed with 8-bit data bus and several control signals. Core voltage for DDR is 1.8V, which is generated by discrete LDO (LP3999-1.8). 1.8V (VIO) is for DDR I/O voltage. Both NAND core and I/O voltages are 1.8V generated by VIO.
Audio concept Audio HW architecture
The functional core of the audio hardware is built around two ASICs: RAP 3G CMT engine ASIC and the mixedsignal ASIC Retu. Retu provides an interface for the transducers and the accessory connector. Because audio amplifiers are also integrated into Retu, the only discrete electronics components needed for audio paths are audio filtering components and EMC/ESD components. There are three audio transducers: · 8mm dynamic earpiece Page 922 Company Confidential Copyright © 2004 Nokia. All Rights Reserved. Issue 1

RF description Introduction to receiver functionality
Receiver functions are implemented in RF ASIC N7501. The receiver is a linear direct conversion receiver consisting of separate front ends (LNA and demodulator) for each supported system. After the demodulators, the signal paths are combined to one common BB path.
WCDMA receiver
In the WCDMA mode, the received signal is fed from the antenna to the duplex filter. After the duplex filter the signal goes via balun to the integrated LNA residing in N7501. After the LNA, the signal goes trough an off chip band pass SAW filter. The main task of the filter is to attenuate the Tx signal which is leaking trough the duplex filter and amplified by LNA. After filtering, the signal goes to the down conversion mixer, which converts the signal into baseband I and Q signals (90 degrees phase shift). After the demodulator output there is a RC low pass filter with f0 of ca. 1.5 MHz. It is effectively part of the BB selectivity filtering. At BB frequency the signal is amplified and fed to a low pass filter giving the selectivity of the receiver. The filters need RC constants, which suffer of process variations. Therefore the integrated resistors are adjustable by digital control word. Rx channel filter must be calibrated with automatic routine whenever N7501 IC is changed to a phone. In the WCDMA mode, the corner frequency of the filter is set to ca. 2.1MHz. The filter is followed by an AGC amplifier with adjustable gain. Signal is further amplified before it is fed to balanced analogue IQ output pins. Analogue output pins are accompanied by reference voltage output, which sets the DC level for the AD converter in BB ASIC RAP3G. The gain of the Rx chain can be adjusted in multiple phases. The first adjustable gain is in LNA which has low, mid and high gain settings and isolation mode. After the mixer, there are adjustable gains (AGC) inside the N7501 IC. The last stage of the RF Rx chain is an output buffer which feeds the signal and a reference voltage (VREFCM) to BB ASIC. The AGC stages are used to maintain the voltage swing at the input of the AD converters at an adequate level. The gain of the Rx chain is measured in production at one RF frequency and power level, so that RSSI reporting gets calibrated. If N7501IC is changed this calibration needs to be performed.
GSM receiver
As GSM900, GSM1800 and GSM1900 Rx branches are functionally identical, the following description is applicable to all of them. The received signal goes from the GSM antenna to the antenna switch module. The switch module contains PIN diode switches for a band and Rx/Tx selection and also Rx SAW filters. Page 940 Company Confidential Copyright © 2004 Nokia. All Rights Reserved. Issue 1
RM-1 System Module The antenna switch module is followed by integrated LNAs residing in N7501.
Nokia Customer Care
The LNAs are followed by demodulators which downconvert the signal to baseband I and Q signals. After the down conversion mixer, the Rx chain is similar to WCDMA Rx. Channel select filter is set to 115 kHz in the GSM mode. In the GSM mode, the DC compensation is carried out before the reception slot. During an operation called DCN1 a sample of the DC level of the signal is stored in sufficiently large off chip capacitors. During reception, information is in turn used for subtracting the DC information from the input signal of the AGC amplifier. DCN0 operation is carried out to discharge any charge from the capacitors before DCN1. This guarantees that the starting point for the DC compensation is always the same.

Introduction to transmitter functionality
Transmitter functions are implemented in the RF ASIC N7501. It contains a BB frequency low pass filter, which is tunable according to the signal bandwidth of the system in use. In addition, N7501 contains three separate RF paths (GSM900, GSM1800/1900 and WCDMA) comprising a final frequency IQ modulator and VGA amplifiers. In order to eliminate the effect of process variations on the low pass filter characteristics, a tuning procedure is carried out in production. The same tunings must be performed if the RF ASIC N7501 is changed.
WCDMA transmitter
In the transmitter side, an analogue I/Q modulated signal is received from the digital baseband into N7501 and fed through the low pass filter. The corner frequency of the filter is set to approximately 3 MHz. After the filter the signal is fed to the IQ modulator, which converts the signal to final Tx frequency. There are two separate I/Q modulators. One for WCDMA and another for EGSM900 and GSM1800/1900 signals. The modulator is followed by two VGA stages giving 85 dB of gain control range. The signal then exits N7501 via a balanced line. In order to attenuate the out of band noise of t
