TC-700 Service Manual Circuit Description Power Supply Power supply of the radio is derived from the battery, which supplies battery B+ after passing through fuse 3A and then feeds through power switch. The power supplies voltage for three AVRs. IC504 supplies 5V (M5V) voltage for the control circuit.
TC-700 Service Manual 1. PLL Circuit Step frequency of PLL can be 2.5 KHz, 5.0 KHz or 6.25 KHz. A 16.8MHz reference oscillator signal is divided at IC301 by a counter to generate a 2.5 KHz, 5.0 KHz or 6.25 KHz reference frequency. Output signal from VCO is buffer amplified by Q301 and divided at IC301 by a frequency divider.

TC-700 Service Manual Figure Ⅲ Temperature Monitoring Configuration 3. Peak Voltage Detection (Ni-Cd, Ni-MH battery) (PVD) bq2000T adopts PVD method to stop the charging of Ni-Cd and Ni-MH batteries. It continuously samples the voltage of BAT pin which reflects the voltage of the whole battery. Bq2000T begins PVD function if this voltage is less than the maximum sampling voltage 3.8mv (PVD).
TC-700 Service Manual desired fast-charge current (I If the voltage at the SNS is lower than VSNSLO or higher than VSNSHI, the bq2000T switches the MOD output high to pass charge current to the battery. When the SNS voltage is less than VSNSL or greater than VSNSHI, the bq2000T switches the MOD output low to shut off charging current to the battery.
