SECTION 4 CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION RECEIVER CIRCUITS 4-1-4 UHF RF CIRCUIT (2F UNIT) The signals from the antenna switching circuit (1F unit; 4-1-1 DUPLEXER CIRCUIT (1F UNIT) D551, D552, D722–D724 and Q204) are applied to the limit- The transceiver has a duplexer (low-pass and high-pass fil- ter (D201), and are then amplified at the the RF amplifier ters) on the first stage from the antenna connector to sepa- (Q201).
The 1st IF signal (45.15 MHz) from the IF amplifier (Q101) TRANSMITTER CIRCUITS is applied to the 2nd mixer section of IC101 (pin 16), and is 4-2-1 MICROPHONE AMPLIFIER CIRCUIT mixed with the 2nd LO signal (45.6 MHZ) for conversion to (LOGIC AND 2F UNIT) a 450 kHz 2nd IF signal at the 2nd mixer section.
4-2-4 APC CIRCUIT (1F AND 2F UNITS) PLL CIRCUITS The APC circuit stabilizes transmit output power and selects 4-3-1 VHF PLL CIRCUIT (1F UNIT) HIGH and LOW output power. The APC circuit consists of The oscillated signal at the VCO circuit (DUAL VCO board; APC sensor, APC control (1F unit) and APC set (2F unit) cir- Q304, Q305 and D303) is amplified at a buffer-amplifier cuits.
4-4 POWER SUPPLY CIRCUITS OTHER CIRCUITS VOLTAGE LINE 4-5-1 TONE SQUELCH CIRCUIT (LOGIC UNIT) DESCRIPTION A portion of the detected audio signals from the “DETO” line LINE are passed through the low-pass filter (IC13). The filtered The voltage from the external power supply or signal is then applied to the CPU (IC1, pin 4), and is com- attached battery pack.
