An integrated radio circuit includes a receiver section, a transmitter
section, an analog to digital converter section, a digital to analog
converter section, a digital baseband processing module, a first dual
function input/output (I/O) module, and a second dual function I/O
module. The first dual function input/output (I/O) module is operably
coupled to provide inbound digital baseband signals as selected inbound
digital baseband signals to the digital baseband processing module when
the integrated radio circuit is in a normal mode of operation and to
provide test inbound digital baseband signals as the selected inbound
digital baseband signals to the digital baseband processing module when
the integrated radio circuit is in a test mode. The second dual function
I/O module is operably coupled to provide outbound digital baseband
signals to the digital to analog converter section when the integrated
radio circuit is in the normal mode of operation and to output the
outbound digital baseband signals when the integrated radio circuit is in
the test mode.
