Chapter 2 THEORY OF OPERATION Introduction This Chapter provides a detailed theory of operation for the 300-350MHz circuits in the radio. For details of the theory of operation and trouble shooting for the the associated Controller circuits refer to the Controller Section of this manual. Transmitter (Refer to Figure 2-1 and the Transmitter schematic diagram) The transmitter contains five basic circuits:...
THEORY OF OPERATION The PRF1507 LDMOS PA is capable of supplying an output power of 7W with an input signal of 0.3W. The current drain would typically be 1300mA while operating in the frequency range of 300-350MHz. The power output can be varied by changing the biasing voltage. Antenna Switch The antenna switch circuit consists of two PIN diodes (CR101 and CR102), a pi network (C107, L104 and C106), and two current limiting resistors (R101, R170).

THEORY OF OPERATION Both the pre and post-RF amplifier varactor tuned filters have similar responses. The 3dB bandwidth of the filter is about 50 MHz. This enables the filters to be electronically controlled by using a single control voltage which is DACRx . The output of the post-RF amplifier filter which is connected to the passive double balanced mixer consists of T301, T302 and CR306.
Receiver Automatic Gain Control Circuit (Refer to the Receiver Front End and Receiver Back End schematic diagrams) The front end automatic gain control circuit is to provide automatic gain reduction of the front end RF amplifier via feedback. This action is necessary to prevent overloading of backend circuits. This is achieved by drawing some of the output power from the RF amplifier’s output.
THEORY OF OPERATION Frequency Generation Circuitry (Refer to Figure 2-3 and the Frequency Synthesizer schematic diagram) The Frequency Generation Circuitry is composed of two main ICs, the Fractional-N synthesizer (U201), and the VCO/Buffer IC (U241). Designed in conjunction to maximize compatibility, the two ICs provide many of the functions that normally would require additional circuitry.

Frequency Generation Circuitry In achieving fast locking for the synthesizer, an internal adapt charge pump provides higher current at pin 45 of U201 to put synthesizer within the lock range. The required frequency is then locked by normal mode charge pump at pin 43 . Both the normal and adapt charge pumps get their supply from the capacitive voltage multiplier which is made up of C258, C259, C228, triple diode CR201 and level shifters U210 and U211.
THEORY OF OPERATION Voltage Controlled Oscillator (VCO) (Refer to Figure 2-5 and the Voltage Controlled Oscillator schematic diagram) The VCOBIC (U241) in conjunction with the Fractional-N synthesizer (U201) generates RF in both the receive and the transmit modes of operation. The TRB line (U241 pin 19) determines which oscillator and buffer will be enabled.

This activates the receive VCO by enabling the receive oscillator and the receive buffer of U241.
