CTCSS Signal Filtering
The IC5 demodulated output audio signals may contain CTCSS
(continuous tone coded squelch system) and DCS (digital coded
squelch). The frequency spectrum of CTCSS/DCS is 2-250Hz. The
filtering circuit constructed by IC4 can filter out the signals out of the
CTCSS/DCS frequency spectrum to ensure MCU to decode
CTCSS/DCS more precisely.
3.2 Transmitter (TX)
Transmitter Amplifier
Figure 3.5 Amplifier and Antenna Switch Diagram
The modulated signals from VCO are amplified at Q2, Q3, and
Q12 and then are sent to Q11 for amplification. Q11 output power:
4.5W.
The Q11 and Q12 gate offset is controlled by APC circuit.
Changing gate-offset voltage can control the transmitter output
power conveniently.
APC (Auto Power Control)
Figure 3.6 APC Circuit
R167, R168, and R169 are the amplifier current checker; IC3A
is the sample amplifier of the amplification current; IC3B is the
power comparison amplifier.
If the transmitter output power is too big, the amplifier current
will increase, IC3A output will mount, IC3B output voltage decrease,
the offset voltage added to Q11 and Q12 will decrease, and then
the transmitter output power will decrease. Vice versa, such can
ensure steady transmitter output power in different working
circumstances.
MCU changes the input power to IC3B to set the power.
Transmitter Audio Signal Processing
Figure 3.7 Transmitter Audio Circuit
IC7 and the peripherals components construct the transmitter
audio processing circuit. After the audio signals from MIC are

PT4200
amplified, the amplitude of them is limited, and are filtered, they are
sent to VCO together with CTCSS/DCS for modulation.
D13, D308, and Q24 constitute AGC circuit which decreases
signal amplitude to avoid signal distortion when MIC signal is too
big.
Q34 is the power switch of audio processing circuit. It supplies
power to IC7 only when in transmitting and it is controlled by MCU.
J2 is the external MIC socket. When external MIC is used, the
inner MIC will cut off automatically, but PTT will remain activated.

3.3 Frequency Synthesize
Figure 3.8 Frequency Synthesizer
The radio adopts PLL (Phase Locked Loop) frequency
synthesizer.
The frequency synthesizer consists of standard oscillator,
voltage controlled oscillator (VCO), programmable frequency
demultiplier, phase comparator, and low pass filter.
Q14, L30, C120, C88, C142, C180, D8, and D9 constitute RX
VCO. D12 is the modulation circuit of VCO.
ICI (MB15E03) is PLL integrated circuit, including
programmable reference frequency demultiplier, programmable
swallowing frequency demultiplier, phase comparator, and charge
pump.
R244, c193, R202, R40, C207, R141, C205, R2, and C204
construct the low pass filter.
The standard frequency is supplied by X4 (TCXO, 13MHz).
The standard frequency fromTCXO (Temperature Control
Transistor Oscillator) are demultiplied by the programmable
reference frequency demultiplier at IC1 to acquire 5kHz or 6.25kHz
reference frequency (controlled by MCU according to the preset
channel frequency).
The oscillation frequency from VCO is sent to IC1, and
demultiplied by swallowing frequency demultiplier and compared
with reference frequency to acquire the error signals. Then pass the
low pass filter and are sent to VCO to change VCO oscillation
frequency to the preset value, and then VCO is locked.
N=FVCO/FR
N Frequency demultiplication times
FVCO VCO oscillation frequency
FR Reference frequency
Check Loss of Lock: When PLL is in loss of lock, IC pin14
sends out low level signals to MCU, which controls the transmitter
not to transmit and initiate warning tome.
Q6: Power filter to supply more pure power to reduce the noise
of the frequency synthesizer.
3.4 Voice Indication Circuit
The radio features voice indication, which is very useful at night
or in the environment of dim light.
