Abstract

An integrated circuit architecture and circuitry is defined by a die structure with a plurality of exposed conductive pads arranged in a grid of rows and columns. The die structure has a first operating frequency region with a first transmit and receive chain, and a second operating frequency region with a second transmit chain and a second receive chain. There is a shared region of the die structure defined by an overlapping segment of the first operating frequency region and the second operating frequency region with a shared power supply input conductive pad connected to the first transmit chain, the second transmit chain, the first receive chain, and the second receive chain, and a shared power detection output conductive pad connected to the first transmit chain and the second transmit chain.
