Patent ID: 7953439

Claim:
A Voice-Data-RF integrated circuit (IC) comprises: a voice baseband processing module coupled to convert an outbound voice signal into an outbound voice symbol stream and to convert an inbound voice symbol stream into an inbound voice signal; a data baseband processing module coupled to convert outbound data into an outbound data symbol stream and to convert an inbound data symbol stream into inbound data, wherein data signals and data symbols are processed via the data baseband processing module separately from voice signals and voice symbol streams, which are processed via the voice baseband processing module; a voice radio frequency (RF) section coupled to convert an inbound RF voice signal into the inbound voice symbol stream and to convert the outbound voice symbol stream into an outbound RF voice signal; a data RF section coupled to convert an inbound RF data signal into the inbound data symbol stream and to convert the outbound data symbol stream into an outbound RF data signal, wherein the inbound RF data signals have a carrier frequency from a different inbound frequency band than the inbound RF voice signals and the outbound data RF signals have a carrier frequency from a different outbound frequency band than the outbound RF voice signals; an interface module coupled to convey the inbound voice symbol stream and the outbound voice symbol stream between the voice baseband processing module and the voice RF section when the Voice-Data-RF IC is in a voice mode and to convey the inbound data symbol stream and the outbound data symbol stream between the data baseband processing module and the data RF section when the Voice-Data-RF IC is in a data mode, the voice mode being different than the data mode and, in which, the voice baseband processing module, data baseband processing module, voice RF section and the data RF section are integrated on a same integrated circuit; an advanced high-performance (AHB) bus matrix coupled to the voice and data baseband processing modules; a microprocessor core coupled to the AHB bus matrix; a mobile industry processor interface (MIPI) coupled to the AHB bus matrix; a universal serial bus (USB) interface coupled to the AHB bus matrix; an external memory interface coupled to the AHB bus matrix; a secure digital input/output (SDIO) interface coupled to the AHB bus matrix; an I2S interface coupled to the AHB bus matrix; a Universal Asynchronous Receiver-Transmitter (UART) interface coupled to the AHB bus matrix; a Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) interface coupled to the AHB bus matrix; a power management interface; a universal subscriber identity module (USIM) interface coupled to the AHB bus matrix; a camera interface coupled to the AHB bus matrix; and a pulse code modulation (PCM) interface coupled to the AHB bus matrix.
