PRODUCT OVERVIEW
The PM8800 WiZIRD 2x2 is an ultra-integrated single-chip WiMAX Zero
Intermediate Frequency (ZIF) Radio Device. It is designed for Fixed
and Mobile WiMAX applications and supports both IEEE 802.16-2004
and IEEE 802.16e-2005 standard requirements. The PM8800 WiZIRD
2x2 has two independent radio paths (2Tx and 2Rx) and supports
operation in the 2.3 - 2.9 GHz or the 3.3 - 3.8 GHz licensed bands.
The PM8800 WiZIRD 2x2 enables manufacturers of WiMAX Femto BS,
CPE, and MS User Equipment to build low-cost, high-performance, 2x2
MIMO equipment today. ULTRA-INTEGRATION
Integration of key transmit and receive path components dramatically
reduces the cost of materials and manufacturing, at the same time
improving system reliability.
The PM8800 WiZIRD 2x2 features:
-
Two independent radio paths (2Tx and 2Rx) supporting all Wave 2
MIMO features and enabling the radio path for uplink MIMO
enhancements
- Zero-IF architecture removes the cost associated with external SAW
filters
- Integrated DCXO supports AFC with no additional components,
except for a low-cost 40 MHz crystal
- Integrated synthesizer loop filter improves noise immunity and
reduces board space requirements
|
-
40 MHz reference is available for use by the Baseband MAC
Processor
- Diagnostic loopback circuits for radio calibration and baseband
diagnostics
- Integrated DAC/ADCs for digital I/Q designs allow Baseband MAC
Processors to scale with Moore's Law without being burdened with
analog circuits
- Integrated transmit baluns, digital temperature monitor, and Rx DC
offset capability
|
DESIGN FLEXIBILITY
Design flexibility is essential for equipment manufacturers, allowing
them to react and adapt to changes in market requirements with
minimal changes.
For flexibility, the PM8800 WiZIRD 2x2 includes:
-
Multi-band support for operation in the 2.3 - 2.7 GHz or the 3.3
- 3.8 GHz licensed bands, enabling system designs that are suitable
for use across multiple geographies
- The choice of selecting an analog or digital I/Q interface to an
external Baseband MAC Processor. This lets designers use the bestin-
class Baseband MAC Processor or ASIC available both now and in
the future. The digital I/Q interface is compliant with JEDEC JESD207,
Radio Front End - Baseband Digital Parallel Interface standard.
|
-
Configurable channel bandwidths of 3.5 MHz, 5 MHz, 7 MHz,
8.75 MHz, 10 MHz, 14 MHz, and 20 MHz
- Programmable transmitter gain control for mobile applications
