Patent ID: 7894851

Claim:
An integrated circuit (IC) comprises: a baseband processing module coupled to: convert outbound data into at least one of outbound data amplitude modulation information, outbound data phase modulation information, and outbound data frequency modulation information when the IC is in a data mode; and convert an outbound voice signal into at least one of outbound voice amplitude modulation information, outbound voice phase modulation information, and outbound voice frequency modulation information when the IC is in a voice mode; and a radio frequency (RF) section that includes: an oscillation module coupled to convert a reference oscillation into an RF oscillation, wherein, when the IC is in the data mode, the oscillation module modulates the RF oscillation based on at least one of the outbound data phase modulation information and the outbound data frequency modulation information to produce a modulated RF data signal and, when the IC is in the voice mode, the oscillation module modulates the RF oscillation based on at least one of the outbound voice phase modulation information and the outbound voice frequency modulation information to produce a modulated RF voice signal; a frequency divider coupled to divide frequency of the modulated RF data signal or the modulated RF voice signal to produce a frequency divided modulated RF data signal or a frequency divided modulated RF voice signal; a first power amplifier module coupled to amplify the modulated RF data signal in accordance with the outbound data amplitude modulation information when the IC is in a first frequency band mode of the data mode to produce a first frequency band outbound RF data signal and to amplify the modulated RF voice signal in accordance with the outbound voice amplitude modulation information when the IC is in a first frequency band mode of the voice mode to produce a first frequency band outbound RF voice signal; and a second power amplifier module coupled to amplify the frequency divided modulated RF data signal in accordance with the outbound data amplitude modulation information when the IC is in a second frequency band mode of the data mode to produce a second frequency band outbound RF data signal and to amplify the frequency divided modulated RF voice signal in accordance with the outbound voice amplitude modulation information when the IC is in a second frequency band mode of the voice mode to produce a second frequency band outbound RF voice signal.
