DESCRIPTION
The GC5318 can also support a combination of CDMA and UMTS channels. The DUC channels operate simultaneously. The chip is ideal for cellular base transceiver systems where a large number of digital radio channels are required. Each of the 24 CDMA (or 12 UMTS) channels can operate independently. There are four 18-bit output ports. Each output port can sum any of the DUC channels in a daisy-chain fashion. This configuration permits creating a stack of CDMA or UMTS signals. These ports can output either real or complex data. Real output data would generally drive one or more digital-to-analog (D/A) converters and output the stack of signals at an intermediate frequency (IF).
