If you take some kind of transceiver SoC IC then de-cap it would it be possible to easily locate the areas of the die which will allow one to locate the leads which go to the off die antenna(s) ? Assume that you are working with just the die and do not know where the antennas are located off die. So how easy would it be to locate on die the areas which are essential to RF communications systems such as power amplifier, modulation, oscillator and so on. I would tend to believe that where these integrated circuits are located one will find the trace/pin which leads to the antenna(s) yes ? The other question can a transceiver IC have two cores both sharing common IO integrated circuits but its own separate antenna ?
