The reference voltage for the comparator is set by R184. (2) CURRENT APC (PA150W BOARD AND MAIN UNIT) The antenna tuning control voltage (TUN8) is also affected The power transistor current is detected from the different voltages between both terminals of a 0.012 Ω resistor (R26) by the reference voltage to decrease the IF signal level.
3-4 PORT ALLOCATIONS 3-3 PLL CIRCUIT 3-4-1 CPU (MAIN unit; IC44) 3-3-1 GENERAL The PLL unit generates a 1st LO frequency (69.5115- Port Description 99.0114 MHz), 2nd LO frequency (60 MHz) and a BFO fre- number name quency (9.0106–9.013 MHz) for the MAIN unit. The 1st LO Input port for the CPU reset signal.
