Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
In accordance with some embodiments, the present disclosure relates to a dual mode control interface that can be used to provide both a radio frequency front end (RFFE) serial interface and a two-mode general purpose input/output (GPIO) interface within a single digital control interface die. In certain embodiments, the dual mode control interface, or digital control interface, can communicate with a power amplifier. Further, the dual mode control interface can be used to set the mode of the power amplifier.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A power amplifier module comprising: a power amplifier configured to amplify a radio frequency (RF) signal; a power amplifier controller; and a digital control interface configured to provide a set of control signals to the power amplifier controller, the power amplifier controller configured to control the power amplifier based on the set of control signals, the digital control interface including a voltage input/output (VIO) pin, a serial interface mod…
