Synthesizer

There is only one PLL synthesizer generating Local Oscillator frequencies for both RX and
TX in both bands ( PCN and EGSM). The VCO frequency is divided by 2 for PCN operation
or by 4 for EGSM operation inside the Mjoelner IC.

It is not possible to measure the output of the VCO (G600) directly as this component is
placed underneath a shielding can without detachable lid. However with spectrum ana-
lyzer and 500 ohm passive probe it is possible to get an indication if the VCO outputs the
correct frequency. To do this probe R656 – the frequency should be 3685.6MHz and the
power should be around –50 dBm.

26 MHz Reference Oscillator ( VCXO )

The 26 MHz oscillator is located in the Mjoelner IC (N600). The coarse frequency for this
oscillator is set by an external crystal (B600). The reference oscillator is used as a refer-
ence frequency for the PLL synthesizer and as the system clock for BaseBand. The
