Object code executed by the Host Processor in an ASTRO subscriber
radio. The Host is responsible for control-oriented tasks such as decod-
ing and responding to user inputs.
Parallel memory mapped interface consisting of eight registers in the
DSP.
Integrated Circuit. An assembly of interconnected components on a
small semiconductor chip, usually made of silicon. One chip can contain
millions of microscopic components and perform many functions.
A sub-band, voice encoding algorithm used in ASTRO digital voice.
Inbound Signaling Word; data transmitted on the control channel from a
subscriber unit to the central control unit.
Digital Signal Processor Support IC; custom integrated circuit providing
peripheral functions for the DSP.
Low Speed Handshake; 150 baud digital data sent to the radio during
trunked operation while receiving audio.
Power Management Integrated Circuit.
Micro Controller Unit. Also written as µC. A microprocessor that
contains RAM and ROM components, as well as communications and
programming peripherals.
A controller configuration that utilizes a microprocessor with extended
ROM, RAM, and EEPROM.
Outbound Signaling Word; data transmitted on the control channel from
the central controller to the subscriber unit.
Printed Circuit board.
Power Control Integrated Circuit. The power control IC is intended for
closed-loop bias control of power amplifiers. The device facilitates
accurate control of the current delivered to the power amplifier (PA) via
a control voltage.
Private-Line ® tone squelch; a continuous sub-audible tone that is
transmitted along with the carrier.
Phase-Locked Loop; a circuit in which an oscillator is kept in phase with
a reference, usually after passing through a frequency divider.
Push-To-Talk; the switch located on the left side of the radio which,
when pressed, causes the radio to transmit.
Short-term data-storage circuits within the microcontroller unit or
programmable logic IC.
