    • Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to an radio frequency (RF) power amplifier (PA) module having a saturation corrected integration loop, which includes saturation detection and correction circuitry, an integrator, PA circuitry, and detector circuitry. An integrator output signal from the integrator is prevented from being driven toward a power supply rail in the presence of saturation of the PA circuitry by saturation correction of an input ramp signal. The saturation detection and correction circuitry receives and saturation corrects the input ramp signal to provide a saturation corrected input ramp signal to the integrator based on detecting saturation of the PA circuitry. Saturation of the PA circuitry is detected based on a difference between a desired PA output voltage, as indicated by the input ramp signal, and a detected PA output voltage, as indicated by a detector output signal from the detector circuitry.

    • A multiple latched accumulator fractional-N synthesizer for use in digital radio transceivers is disclosed. The divisor of the frequency divider (103) of the synthesizer is varied with time by the summation of accumulator carry output digital sequences which result in frequency increments equal to a fraction of the reference frequency. The accumulators (615, 617) are latched such that upon the occurrence of a clock pulse, data is transferred through each accumulator one clock pulse step at a time, such that the delay through the system is equal to that of only one accumulator. The carry outputs of each accumulator are coupled through delays (645, 647, 649, 631, 633) equal to one less delay than the number of accumulators and added (635) such that all higher order accumulator carry outputs add to a net summation of zero so as to not upset the desired fractional setting of the first accumulator.

    • Disclosed is a method in which slaves are cascaded on a bus, and cascading slave-to-slave communication is used to prioritize (or sequence) the software slave ID programming, enabling users to uniquely identify identical components in a circuit. In one embodiment, the first slave in the cascade stalls the programming of other slaves until the first slave's programming is complete. Once completed, the first slave then enables programming of the second slave, and so on. This embodiment allows multiple placements of identical slaves on the bus, and provides a method to uniquely identify and control each slave by using cascading software slave ID programming. In another embodiment, a structure with a similar effect may be created by lack of enablement (instead of disablement), wherein initially only the first slave is enabled, and subsequent slaves are not initially enabled. Additionally, the present disclosure is compatible with the MIPI RFFE standard interface.

    • A power amplifier controller for detecting saturation of the power amplifier (203) and corrects the automatic output control voltage (231) to avoid any further saturation. A detector (211) detects the power of the radio frequency (RF) output signal (211) and generates a signal (229) correlated to the detected power. Comparator (217) compares changes in that signal (229) to changes in the voltage of the AOC signal (231). The comparator (217) generates a signal (233) correlated to saturation of the power amplifier (203) for a DSP (223). The DSP (223) checks the status of this signal (233). Upon detecting saturation, an algorithm contained within the DSP methodically reduces the voltage of the AOC signal (231) until there is a change in the power of the RF output signal (211).
