Abstract:
1. A device for interfacing between a baseband controller and an a radio frequency (RF) integrated circuit (IC) chip having a modulator and a demodulator, comprising: an analog-to-digital converter (ADC) coupled to the demodulator located on the RF IC chip, wherein the ADC is configured to receive demodulated analog signals from the demodulator; a serializer configured to generate a serial data frame based on the ADC's output; a first serial data port configured to send the serial data frame to the baseband controller; and a control module coupled to the baseband controller, wherein the control module includes at least a configuration register for controlling at least the ADC and the serializer and a status register for indicating status of the serial data frame.
