1.2 TRANSCEIVER DESCRIPTION
1.2.1 GENERAL
The 98xx-series transceivers combine the latest
two-way radio features and technology into a rugged
and dependable package for the business, industrial,
and public safety markets. These transceivers are digitally synthesized, microcomputer-controlled, and field
programmable.
NOTE: The above Multi-Net manual also includes
98xx servicing information but has not been updated
with the latest changes that are in this manual.
1.1.2 LTR®, LOW TIER, AND DATA MODELS
NOTE: LTR, low tier, and data versions of the 98xx
transceiver are no longer available.
The LTR versions of the 98xx are covered by
LTR 98xx Service Manual, Part No. 001-9800-200.
This is a complete LTR manual that includes LTR
operation and programming information and 98xx
hardware servicing information. There are also -201
and -202 revisions tha t sh oul d acc ompany thi s manual.
The LTR models of the 98xx mobile were available in both high and low tier versions, and the MultiNet, LTR-Net, and SMARTNET/SmartZone models
are available in only the high tier version. Therefore,
only high tier models are covered by this manual. For
servicing information on low tier models, refer to the
LTR manual described in the preceding paragraph.
1.2.2 AVAILABLE FREQUENCY BANDS
UHF Models
• 430-470 MHz or 470-512 MHz models available.
• All currently available models are dual bandwidth
(12.5/25 kHz). Theref ore , they can be programmed
to operate on both types of channels.
• High power (40W) or medi um power (25W) models
available.
800 MHz Models
• Full band (806-824 MHz) operation.
• All currently available models are dual bandwidth
(12.5/25 kHz).
• High power (30W) and medium power (15W)
models available.
1-1
February 2001
Part No. 001-9800-001
GENERAL INFORMATION
900 MHz Models
• Full band (896-902 MHz) operation.
• Only narrow band (12.5 kHz) models are available
because the 900 MHz band has always had a 12.5
kHz channel spacing.
• High power (30W) and medium power (15W)
models available.
1.2.3 FRONT AND REMOTE MOUNTING
High tier models are available in both front- and
remote-mount versions, and low tier models were
available in a fr ont mou nt version onl y. Remote mount
versions are intended to be mounted in a remote location up to appr oximat ely 17 feet away from t he co ntr ol
unit such as the vehicle’s trunk. Front mount versions
are intended to be mounted within reach of the
operator.
The control unit connects to the remote pigtail
cable coming from the back panel of the transceiver.
This cable is standard with remote mount models and
optional with front mount models. The remote control
unit uses the high tier front panel assembly. A Remote
Conversion Kit is available for converting a front
mount high tier model to remote mounting (see Table
1-3). The transceiver does not have dual-control capability. Therefore, either the front pa nel or a remote
control unit can be used for control, but not both.
1.2.4 NPSPAC MODELS (800 MHZ ONLY)
All 800 MHz 988x transceivers capable of operating on 25 kHz channels meet the stricter specifications established by NPSPAC (National Public Safety
Panel Advisory Committee) for public safety frequencies from 821-824 and 866-869 MHz. Since deviation
is less on NPSPAC channels, an additional screen is
may be displayed by the tuning software with 800
MHz models for setting NPSPAC deviation. Then
when a public safety channel is selected, the deviation
automatically changes to the level set in this scree n.
1.2.5 PROGRAMMING
Transceiver programming is performed using a
PC-compatible computer, the E.F. Johnson Remote
Programming Interface (RPI), and E.F. Johnson
programming software. Programming is described in
separate manuals as described in Section 1.1.1.
1.2.6 TRANSCEIVER ALIGNMENT
Alignment is performed using the standard
Personality programming setup and special Radio
Tune software. There are only two or three adjustments that are made by physically adjusting a component on the PC board. All other adjustments are set
digitally. The desired setting is selected using the
computer, and it is then automatically stored in the
transceiver memory. If the manual adjustments do not
need to be readjusted, transceiver alignment can
usually be performed without removing the covers.
Alignment is described in separate manuals as
described in Section 1.1.1.

2.3 POWER CABLE INSTALLATION
It is recommended that both wires of the power
cable be connected directly to the vehicle battery.
Connection of either wire to ot her point s may resul t in
increased interference from the vehicle’s electrical
system. If noise is still a problem with both wires
connected to the battery, a noise filter should be used.
NOTE: With LTR-Net models, do not connect the
power cable to a switched power source such as the
ignition switch or a relay. Always use the front panel power switch or the ignition sense input described in
Section 2.4.3 to switch power. When power is switch ed
externally with LTR-Net models, the de-registration
message cannot be sent and the current user settings
are not saved.

INSTALLATION
Installing Ignition Sense Wire Assembly
The ignition sense input is connected using the
connector with the 22- foot red wi re pre-i nstalled i n pin
6. The white jumper between pins 1 and 3 is not used
with this transceiver, so it can be clipped off or left as
is. It is used only Summit
®
or Vik ing® HT/GT transceivers to route a udio to t he inter nal spea ker. The other
connector and wire assemblies in the kit can also be
used if desired.
The red wire from pin 6 (see Figure 2-4) is
connected to a 13.6-volt source that is switched by the
vehicle ignition switch. Connect this wire using the
included fuseholder and 1-amp fuse. Be sure to install
the fuse as close as possi ble to the connection point so
that it provides optimum short circuit protection.
2.4.4 CONNECTING HORN ALERT WIRE
NOTE: The horn alert feature is not available with
SMARTNET/SmartZone models.
To utilize the horn alert, the horn alert output of
the accessory connector is connected and special
programming is required. When the horn alert sounds,
pin 4 of the accessory connector goes low. The
disabled condition is a high impedance state.
Maximum sink current of the horn alert output is
500 mA. Therefore, some type of horn alert driver
circuit is usually required. If connecting to a relay, a
diode should be connected across the relay coil with
the cathode toward the battery side. This protects
Q100 on the audio/logic board when the relay deenergizes.
The horn alert output is connected by using one
of the 22- or 2-foot wire assemblies included in the
Accessory Wire Kit. Insert the pin of the wire
assembly into the pin 4 slot of the connector as shown
in Figure 2-4. Then connect the other end to the horn
alert driver.
For this output to operate properly, the audio
amplifier requires an 8-ohm load. Therefore, if not
using the internal speaker and no speaker is connected
to the external speaker jack, connect an 8-ohm, 5-watt
resistor to the external speaker jack.
Sw Bat Out (pin 2) - This output can provide a
switched battery output current of up to 1.5 A
(including the current supplied to the microphone
connector). This cur ren t i s limited by fuse F100 on the
audio/logic board. CAUTION: Do not chan ge this fuse
to one with a higher current rating because PC board
damage may result.
Horn Alert (pin 4) - See Section 2.4.4.
Ignition Sense (pin 6) - See Section 2.4.3.
Output D (pin 7) - This output is available with LTR-
Net/Multi-Net models only. It is controlled by the
menu OPTION parameter or by an option switch
programmed for that functi on. It can al so be contro lled
by several I/O functions (see Appendix B).
2.5 REMOTE CONTROL UNIT INSTALLATION
2.5.1 GENERAL
NOTE: Install the remote mount transceiver, power
cable, and accessory cable as described in Sections
2.2, 2.3, and 2.4, respectively.
No special control uni t pro gra mming o r PC boar d
modifications are required prior to installing the
remote control unit. An d iagram showing a remote
installation is located in Figure 2-2. As indicated in
this diagram, the control unit has a 5-ft pigtail cable
and the transceiver has a 1-ft pigtail cable. These
cables can be directly connected if the control unit is
mounted within approximately 6-ft of the transceiver.
Otherwise, the optional 11-ft extension cable can be
used to allow a mounting distance of up to approximately 17 feet.
2.4.5 OTHER ACCESSORY CABLE OUTPUTS
Speaker Output (pin 1) - This is a low-level, volume
controlled, speaker output. It provides drive to an
external device such as an audio power amplifier. The
input impedance of the external device should be
greater than 20k ohms.

3. Install the included microphone hanger in a convenient location usi ng the included shee t metal screws
or other screws. For proper operation of functions
such as the monitor mode and scan , the hanger must
be connected to c hass is ground. If requir ed, gr ound
the hanger using the included ground wire.
2.6 USING AN EXTERNAL SPEAKER
Power output with the internal 8-ohm speaker in
the front panel or remote control unit is approxi mately
3 watts. For up to 5 watts of p ower, a 4.7-ohm exter nal
speaker can be used. This speaker is plugged into the
external speaker jack on the back of the transceiver.
This is a standar d 1/8”, two- conductor p hone jack. Th e
J301
internal speaker is automatically disabled when an
external speaker is used.
The impedance of the external speaker must not
be less than 4.0 ohms. Using a speaker with an impedance less than 4.0 ohms could result in audio amplifier U306 overheating and does not provide 5 watts of
power. Therefore, to allow for tolerances, a speaker
with a nominal impedance of 4.7 ohms is recommended. The E.F. Johnson remote speaker listed in
Figure 2-1 or Table 1-3 meets this requirement. This
speaker has a 6-ft cable, and in some applications
(such as remote mounting) an extension cable may be
required to connect it to the transceiver.

3.1.3 SYNTHESIZER
The synthesizer output signal is the transmit
frequency in the transmit mode and the receive first
injection frequency in the receive mode. The synthesizer also pr ovides the r ecei ver s econ d inj ectio n sign al
by tripling the TCXO frequency.
Channels are selected by programming the main
divider in synthesize r integra ted circuit U804 to divide
by a certain number. This programming is provided by
microcontroller U101 on the audio/logic board. The
minimum frequency resolution is 6.25 or 10 kHz. The
frequency stabili ty of the synthesizer i s de termined by
the stability of TCXO U806 (Temperature Compensated Crystal Oscillator). The TCXO has a frequency
stability of ± 2.0 PPM (UHF) or ± 1.5 PPM (800/900
MHz) from –22° to +140° F (–30 to +60° C).
3.1.4 AUDIO/LOGIC BOARD
RF Board - Receiver, synthesizer, and exciter.
PA Board - Transmitter power amplifier.
General descriptions of the main sections such as
the receiver, synthesizer, and exciter follow, and
detailed descriptions are located in later sections.
3.1.2 CIRCUIT PROTECTION (FUSES)
Circuit protection is provided by a 15-ampere inline power cable fuse, 4-ampere fuse F500 on the RF
board (in the unswitched battery supply line from the
PA board), and by voltage regulators which automatically limit current. The 15-ampere power cabl e fuse
protects the power amplifier module and final stages
on the power amplifier board, and the 4-ampere fuse
protects the remainder of the circuitry. In addition,
there are two fuses on the audio/logic board. One fuse
(F100, 2A) limits the current of the switched battery
supply fed to accessory connector J101, the microphone jack, and also the display board. The other fuse
Microcontroller U101 on the audio/logic board
provides transceiver control functions including
synthesizer programming, system and group scan,
data encoding and decoding, squelch, and gating of
audio and data signals. The audio /l ogi c boar d als o has
analog circuitry which provides filtering, amplification, and other processing of the audio, data, and Call
Guard signals.
The U101 operating program is stored in Flash
EPROM U108. This type of memory can be reprogrammed in the field using the standard programming
setup and special programming software. This allows
the operating software to be easily update d without the
need to change a microprocessor or EPROM. Flash
EPROM memory devices retain data indefinitely
without the need for battery backup, and can be reprogrammed many times.
Parameters which change from transceiver to
transceiver such as programmed system and groups
and option key programming are also stored in the

CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
Flash EPROM and also EEPROM U102. This information is programmed when data is downlo aded to the
transceiver by the programming software described in
Section 4.
A second microcontroller (U2) on the display
board controls the front panel display and tri-color
indicator and also detects the option switch, Select
switch, and microphone on/off hook state. Control
information is exchanged between U101 and this
microcontroller via a serial bus. The use of a second
microcontroller minimizes the number of interconnections that are required between the audio/logic and
display boards. The operating program for this microcontroller is permanently stored on the chip and cannot
be changed.
3.1.5 RECEIVER
The receiver is a double conversion type with the
following intermediate frequencies:
UHF Models - 45 MHz and 450 kHz
800 MHz Models - 52.950 MHz and 450 kHz
900 MHz Models - 45 MHz and 450 kHz

the selected receive band. Receiver selectivity is
enhanced by a four -pol e cryst al fi lter a nd two 450 kHz
ceramic filters.
3.1.6 TRANSMITTER
The transmitter amplifies the synthesizer signal to
produce a power output of up to either 25 or 40 watts
(UHF) or 15 or 30 watts ( 800/90 0 MHz) a t the an tenna
jack. Frequency modulation of the transmit signal is
performed by modulating the synthesizer TCXO and
VCO frequencies. A control circuit senses forward
power to maintain constant power output. It also
senses final amplifier cur r ent and cuts back power if it
becomes excessive.
The use of a digital potentiometer allows the
power output to be set from the front panel when the
test mode is selected and also allows two different
power levels to be programmed for each system. The
microcontroller also monitors power amplifier
ambient temperature and voltage and cuts back power
or disables the transmitter if either are excessive.
3.2 POWER DISTRIBUTION AND SWITCHING
3.2.1 POWER SWITCHING CONTROL
A diagram of the power distribution and
switching circuits is shown in Figure 3-1. The main
power switching is performed on the RF board by
Q510 and other transistors. This switch is controlled
by the front panel power switch, the ignition sense
input, and the microcontroller as shown in Figure 3-2.
For the front panel on-off switch to be detected, Q109
must be turned on by a high signal applied through
R170 or from the ignition switch. R170 is installed if
the ignition switch is not used to control power. Q107
and Q108 provide power switch on and ignition on
signals to the mi crocontroller so t hat it can sense those
conditions.
Q110 allows the microcontroller to hold power
on for a time after it has been turned off by the power
or ignition switch. For example, when the microcontroller senses that power was switched off by the front
panel switch, it holds power on for a short time so that
switch settings can be saved to memory. It also holds
power on when a power-off de la y i s use d. Once power
turns off, power is also removed from the microcontroller. Therefore, power can be turned on only by the
power and ignition switches.
NOTE: The front panel power switch is a push on,
push off type (pressing it toggles between open and
closed). It is not a momentary switch.
3.2.2 SUPPLY SWITCHING
When power is turned on by the front panel
power switch, the base of Q514 on the RF board is
grounded through the power switch. Q514 then turns
on which also turns on the Darlington amplifier
formed by Q511 and Q512. These transist ors are
turned on by a 13.6-volt signal applied through R535.
Series-pass transistor Q510 is then turned on and 13
volts appears on its collector. The diodes in CR505
and CR506 become forward biased only if the 8-volt
supply applied to the collector of Q514 becomes
shorted. This provides current limiting which prevent s
damage to the transistors.
Q513 controls the Q511 base current in order to
maintain approximately a 0.8-volt drop across the
emitter and collector of Q510. This provides noise

AUDIO/LOGIC DESCRIPTION (ALL MODELS)
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
3.3 AUDIO/LOGIC BOARD DIGITAL CIRCUIT
3.3.1 MICROCONTROLLER (U101)
General
The control logic is based on an MC68HC11F1
eight-bit microcontroller (U101). This device has an
internal 1K-byte static RAM and 512-byte EEPROM
but no internal ROM or EEPROM. Therefore, all
program memory is contained in the external flash
memory device (U108). In addition, the microcontroller has several general purpose input and output
pins, an eight-channel A/D converter, and synchronous (SPI) and asynchronous (SCI) serial ports. The
A/D converter port allows analog signals to be monitored such as the power amplifier temperature, RSSI
signal, and vehicle battery voltage.
Separate buses are used for data and memory
addressing. The data bus consists of D0-D7, and the
address bus consists of A0-A15. The operating speed
of the microcontroller is set by crystal Y100. The 9.38
MHz frequency of this cryst al is d ivide d by an in terna l
divider to produce a lower internal operating
frequency.
T empor ary dat a stor age is provide d by a n inte rnal
1K x 8 RAM in microcontroller U101 and by external
8K x 8 RAM U107. These devices are used as a
“scratchpad” during program execution.
Reset
The microcontroller resets when po wer is turned
on and also when the 5-volt supply drops below the
normal range. Reset clears several internal registers
and restarts the operating program. This prevents
improper operation which may result during low voltage conditions.
The microcontroller resets itself automatically for
4064 clock cycles when power is applied to the VCC
input. Low-voltage reset is triggered by low-voltage
sensor U100. When the 5-volt supply drops to approximately 4.25 volts, the RESET output goes low. This
resets the microcontroller and also inhibits operation
for as long as it is low. The microcontroller also has
internal reset circuits w hich trigger reset if problems
occur with the clock signal, illegal op codes, or the
watchdog timer circuit.
Memory
The operating program and most of the personality information used by the microcontroller is stored
in 128K x 8 Flash EPROM U108. The use of a Flash
memory device allows the program to be conveni en tl y
updated using the standard programming setup and
special Flash programming software. This eliminates
the need to replace the microcontroller or a memory
device such as an EPROM. To reprogram the Flash
device, the microcontroller is placed in a special bootstrap mode by turning power on with the MODA/
MODB inputs pulled low. This is done by the RPI by
applying 20 volts to the PTT pin of the microphone
jack.
Radio tuning information is stored in the 512byte EEPROM in microcontroller U101. External 4K
x 8 EEPROM U102 is used in high tier and data
models to store additiona l personality informat ion. An
EEPROM can be programmed many times, does not
require a constant power supply, and retains data
indefinitely.
Reset is also triggered when the transceiver is
Flash programmed. A low pulse is created by C363
and R421 when the MODA/MODB inputs of the
microcontroller are pulled low to initiate this programming. This automatically pl ace s the microcontroller in
the flash programming mode. However, reset does not
occur when flash programming is complete, so power
must be turned off a nd then o n again t o resume normal
operation.
Data Bus
A bi-directional data bus consisting of D0-D7 is

It is used t o tra nsfer para llel data in and out o f memory
chips U107 (high tier only) and U108, and also
program latches U110-U112. The logic level on the
R/W
pin determines the direction of data on the data
bus. If it is high, data is read into U101, and if it is
low, data is written out. The E output goes high to
indicate when data on the data bus is valid or when an
external device can place data on the data bus.

Address Bus
The address bus consisting of A0- A1 5 is use d for
addressing the memory location in U107 or U108 that
data is being written to or read from. In addition, it
provides chip select signals to latches U110-U112.
Refer to Section 3.3.2 fo r more information on
memory and I/O addressing.
A/D Converter Inputs
VRH/VRL - These inputs provide the reference voltages for the A/D converter circuitry. R115 and C105
attenuate noise present in the 5-volt supply applied to
VRH.
PE0 - RSSI (Receive Signal Strength Indicator) input
from limiter/detector U201 in the receiver. This signal
is used along with the squelch signal to determine
when valid data may be present and when to unmute
the receive audio.
PE1 - Battery voltage input. The switched 13.6-volt
supply is divided down by R161 and R168 to provide
a 0-5 volt input. If the battery voltage is excessively
high, the transmitter is disabled.
PE2 - Power amplifier temperature input from thermistor R601 on the PA board. The DC voltage of this
signal decreases as temperature increases.
PE3 - Lock detect input from synthesizer IC U804. If
this signal is high (near 5 volts) the synthesizer is
locked on frequency (see Section 3.7.6).
PE4 - Power switch sense input. This input is high
when the power switch is on and low when it is off.
When the off condition is sensed, the microcontroller
saves the current settings and then powers down the
transceiver by turning Q110 off (see Section 3.2.1).
PE5 - Ignition switch sense input. This input is low
when the ignition switch is on and high when it is off.
The microcontroller senses the ignition switch to
control such features as the power-off delay and horn
alert.
PE7 - This input senses the voltage on the IN3 pin of
Option 1 slot wire-out W301.
Serial Peripheral Interface Port (SPI), OR Gate (U103)
This serial port is formed by the MOSI, MISO,
and SCK pins (31, 30, 32) of the microcontroller. It is
a synchronous port which means that a clock signal is
used to indicate when data on the data line is valid.
This port has both master and sla ve conf igu rations a nd
in this appl ication, the master configuration is always
used. In the master configuration the microcontroller
generates the clock and other signals.
MOSI (Master Out, Slave In) - This is the serial data
output for the port.
MISO (Master In, Slave Out) - This is the se ri al data
input for this port.
SCK - Serial clock output. This pin provid es the cloc k
signal to all devices served by this port.
This port provides two-way serial data communication with EEPROM U102 (high tier and data
models) and microcontroller U2 on the display board
(high tier only). In addition, it provides programming
data to the RF board for shift registers U800 and
U801, digital potentiometer U802, and synthesizer IC
U804 (see Section 3.7.8). It also provides programming data to shift register U305 (on the audio/logic
board) which controls the squelch level.
OR gates U103A-D provide routing of the serial
port signals to the RF and display boards. When the
PD5 output (pin 33) of the microcontroller goes low,
U103A and U103B route the data and clock signals to
the RF board and shift register U305. Then when the
Q4 output (pin 15) of latch U110 goes low, U103D
routes the clock signal to th e displ ay board and U103C
routes the display board data signal to the MISO pin.
When communicating with the display board, PD5
goes high to block the data path through U103A and
U103B.
Asynchronous Serial Communications Interface (SCI)
PE6 - This input senses the voltage on the IN2 pin of
data modem connector J301 and Option 2 slot wire-out
W311.
This is a full duplex serial port formed by the
RxD (data input) and TxD (data output) pins (28, 29)
of the microcontroller. This port uses a standard non-

return-to-zer o (NRZ) for mat consi sting of one s tart b it,
eight or nine data bits, and one stop bit.
This port is used to provide data communication
with the computer used to program the transceiver.
Connection is made via the front panel microphone
connector. Another use for this port is data communication with an external data device such as a modem.
Connection is made via connector J301. Communication cannot occur simultaneously over both of these
paths.
Other General Purpose Inputs and Outputs
The PA0-PA7 pins are used for general purpose
inputs and outputs as follows:
PA0 - Input for PTT signal from the microphone jack
and W302/W312 option slot wire-outs. This signal is
low when the transmitter is keyed.
PA1 - Input for the receive LTR or Call Guard data
signal.
PA2 - Service request input from microcontroller U2
on the display board. This tell s U101 tha t it has dat a to
send on the SPI bus described previously.
and the data appears on data bus lines D0-D7. Chip
select is performed by pulling the CE1 input (pin 20)
low. The CE2 input is always pulled high by R114.
The A13 and A14 address lines can be connected by
changing jumpers if a 16K or 32K part is required.
Data is read from U107 by pulling the OE input (pin
22) low. Likewise, data is written by pulling the WE
input (pin 27) low. See the U104 description which
follows for more information.
Flash EPROM (U108)
As described in Section 3.3.1, U108 can store up
to 128K bytes of data. The memory space is arranged
as 32K of common code space and twelve 8K blocks
of bank code space. The A15 line of the microcontroller determines if common or bank code space is
selected. When A15 is high, common space is
selected, and when it is low, bank space is selected.
The A15 line controls the four two-input multiplexers in U109. When A15 is low, the A input is
connected to Y which routes the PG0-PG3 outputs of
the microcontroller to U108. PG0-PG3 then select the
desired bank. Then when A15 is high, the B input is
routed to Y and the A13-A15 address lines of the
microcontroller are routed to U108.
PA3 - Input from the Option 1 pin of modem
connector J301.
PA4/PA5 - Transmit LTR/Call Guard data output.
These two outputs are used to create a pseudo sinewave signal. See Section 3.5.4 for more information.
PA6 - Output for supervisory tones generated by the
microcontroller such as busy and out-of-range.
PA7 - Input from the squelch circuit (see Section
3.4.4). When the received signal strength increases to
the squelch threshold level, this input goes high. The
microcontroller uses this information to determine
when receive data is valid and to control audio
muting.
3.3.2 MEMORY AND LATCH PROGRAMMING
RAM U107
When a data read or write to U107 occurs, the
location in U107 is selected by address lines A0-A12,
Therefore, when a data read or write to U108
occurs, the lower 13 bits of the address are specified
by address lines A0-A12 and the rest of the address is
specified as just described . The data appea rs on data
bus lines D0-D7. Data is read from U108 by pulling
the OE
pulling the WE
input (pin 24) low, and data is written by
input (pin 31) low. Refer to the
following U104 description for more information.
Chip select is provided by pulling the CE
input (pin
22) low.
Read/Write Strobe Select (U104A-D)
NAND gates U104C and U104B select the read
and write signals applied to U107 and U108. When a
memory read occurs, the R/W
output of the microcontroller goes high. This signal is inver ted by U104C and
applied to the OE
operation occurs, the R/W
of U108. When a memory write
output of the microcontroller goes low. U104B is then enabled by the high
output of U104C, and the high E signal is inverted by
U104B and applied to the WE
pin of U107 and to
U104D.

AUDIO/LOGIC DESCRIPTION (ALL MODELS)
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
NAND gates U104A and U104D provide gating
of the write signal to U108. Data is written to this
device only during Flash programming. Therefore,
when Flash programming occurs, the Q3 output (pin
16) of shift register U 111 goes high which enables
U104A. A double inversion of the write signal then
occurs and it is applied to the WE
input of U108.
Latch Programming (U106, U110-U112)
Decoder U106 provides chip select to octal
latches U110, U111, and U112. When data is written
to U106 address space, a low signal is applied to chip
select input G2A
(pin 4) and a high signal is appl ied to
chip select input G1 (pin 6). The thre e address bits
applied to the A, B, and C inp uts of U106 sel ect on e of
the eight outputs. When an output is selected, it goes
low.
Data is latched by U110-U112 on a rising edge of
a clock signal from U106. Therefore, when the U106
output is disabled, data is latched. The outputs of the
latches are enabled when the OC
input (pin 1 ) is low,
and the outputs are a high impedance state when it is
high.
3.4 RECEIVE AUDIO/DATA PROCESSING
NOTE: A block diagram of the audio and data
processing circuitry is shown in Figure 3-3.
3.4.1 AMPLIFIER (U301B)
The demodulated receive audio/data signal from
limiter/detector U201 in the receiver is applied to
amplifier U301B. The gain of this amplifier is
controlled by analog swi tch U307B. The gain is highe r
for narrow-band (12.5 kHz) channels to compensate
for the lower detected signal le vel that resul ts from the
lower deviation used with those channels. The gain is
approximately four wi th narrowba nd channel s and two
with wideband (25 kHz) channels.
The control input of U307B (pin 5) is low for
narrowband channels and high for wideband channels. When it is high, the switch is closed and R327 is
switched into the circuit. This adds more feedback
which decreases the gain. The control signal comes
from the Q0 output (pin 19) of latch U111. Transistor
Q305 inverts this signal and also provides level
translation from 5-volt logic levels of U111 to the 8volt logic levels of U307B.
From U301B the receive audio/data signal is fed
to audio, data, and squelch circuits. Refer to the
following descriptions for more information.
3.4.2 RECEIVE AUDIO PROCESSING
Bandpass Filter (U301C, U301D)
U301C and U301D form a bandpass filter which
passes frequencies in the 300-3000 Hz range. This
attenuates frequenci es below 300 Hz such as LTR data
and Call Guard signaling, and frequencies above 3
kHz such as noise. These stages also provide 6 dB per
octave de-emphasis to remove the pre-emphasis that
was added to the signal when it was transmitted.
Mute Gate (U307C), Summing Amplifier (U301A)
The receive audio signal is then routed via the
option wireouts to mute gate U307C. This gate mutes
the signal when no carrier is being received or if the
message is intended for someone else. It is controlled
by the Q5 output (pin 14) of latch U110. When the
audio signal is muted, t his outpu t is high. T his signal is
then inverted by Q301 resulting in a low signal on the
control input (pin 6) of gate U307C.
U301A is a summing amplifier which combines
the supervisory tone signal from microcontroller pin
36 (PA6) with the receive audio signal. Supervisory
tones include the busy and intercept tones and other
beeps that are heard by the user. C320 provides additional feedback of t he higher f requenci es present in the
square-wave output of the microcontroller. C323 and
R352 also provide shaping of this signal.
Audio Power Amplifier (U306)
The output signal from U301A is fed to the
microphone connector through C321 and to audio
power amplifier U306. This is a 5-watt (wit h an 8-ohm
load) bridge-type amplifier. Therefore, both outputs
are connected directly to the speaker and neither
speaker terminal is grounded. Thi s devi ce is int er nal ly
protected from damage resulting from shorting either
output to ground or B+, or shortin g acr oss the out put s.

Pin 5 is the input o f an in terna l ga in cont rol s tage.
Gain increases in proportion to increases in the DC
voltage on this pin. With the low tier models, volume
control is provided b y a D/A conv erter fo rmed by sh ift
register U309 and several resistors. The six-bit output
controls the volume in 64 steps. U309 is programmed
by the SPI bus described in Section 3.3.1. With the
mid and high tier models, the front panel volume
control is part of a voltage divider which includes
R356 and R426.
If the voltage on pin 5 falls below approximately
0.4 volt DC, the output is muted. Speaker muting is
controlled by the Q7 output (pin 12) of latch U110.
When this output goes high, inverter/level translator
Q302 turns on which gro unds the vol ume contro l input
of U306 and mutes the speaker.
3.4.3 RECEIVE DATA PROCESSING
The receive audio/data signal from amplifier
U301B is applied to a low-pass filter formed by
U300B and U300C. This filter attenuates voice and
harmonic frequencies occurring above the data band.

Part No. 001-9800-001
AUDIO/LOGIC DESCRIPTION (ALL MODELS)
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The passband of thi s f i lt er is controlled by t he Q1
output (pin 18) of latch U111. When LTR or digital
Call Guard data or low-f requency Call Guard tones are
received, this output goes high which turns Q300 on.
This switches additional capacitance into the circuit
and the filter cut-off frequency decreases to approximately 150 Hz. Then when h igh-f requen cy Call Guard
tones are received, the output go es low and turn s Q300
off. This increases the cut-off frequency to approximately 220 Hz.
From U300C the data signal is fed to a DC restoration circuit formed by U300D and U300A. This
circuit converts it from an analog signal fl oating at half
supply to a digital signal at 0 and 5 volt leve ls that can
be detected by the microcontroller. U300D is a standard noninverting amplifier with a gain set by R308,
R316, and R317 (R317 is AC grounded by C309).
Two attenuation levels are selected by gate
U307D similar to gate U307B described in Section
3.4.1. When wideband (25 kHz ) chan nel s a re sel ec te d,
the control input (pin 12) of U307D is high and R317
is effectively shorted which increases gain. The gain
of U300D is approximately 3 with wideband channels
and 2 with narrow-band channels. This compensates
for excess amplification of the data signal in the
narrowband mode by U301B.
The CR301 diodes charge and discharge C309 to
establish a DC reference on pin 2 of comparator
U300A. This reference voltage is the average of the
positive and negative alternations of the data signal.
When pin 3 of U300A rises above the refer ence on pin
2, the output goes high (8 volts) and vice versa.
Voltage divider R304/R311 provides the 5-volt level
required by the microcontroller.
3.4.4 SQUELCH CIRCUIT (U304A, U304B)
The receive audio, data, and noise signal from
amplifier U301B is applied to a bandpass filter and
amplifier formed by U304A and other components.
This stage attenuates voice frequencies and LTR and
Call Guard signaling so that only noise frequencies in
the range of approximately 7-8 kHz are passed. The
output signal of U304A is applied across a resistor
network which sets the input level to a rectifier. Thermistor R318 provides temperature compensation of
this network.
C304 charges t hrough the forward bi ased diod e in
CR300 and discharg es throu gh R306. C3 03 dis char ges
through the other diode in CR300. When the voltage
on pin 6 of comparator U304B rises above the reference on pin 5, the out put go es low. For example, when
received signal strength is low, more noise is rectified
which causes the voltage on pin 6 of U304B to
increase and the output on pin 7 to go low (squelched
condition). A voltage divider formed by R416 and
R417 reduces the 8-volt output of U304B to the 5-volt
level required by the microcontroller.
The squelch threshold level is set by a D/A
converter formed by shift register U305 and several
resistors. The eight-bit output of U305 can control the
reference voltage applied to U304B in 256 st eps. U305
is programmed by the SPI serial port described in
Section 3.3.1. R310 provides hysteresis to the
threshold level to prevent intermittent squelc hing
when receiving a weak or fading signal.
3.5 TRANSMIT AUDIO/DATA PROCESSING
NOTE: A block diagram of the audio and data
processing circuitry is shown in Figure 3-3.
3.5.1 MICROPHONE AMPLIFIER (U303B),
HIGH-PASS FILTER (U303C)
The microcontroller uses the output from the
squelch circuit and also the RSSI output of the limiter/
detector (see Secti on 3.8. 4) to de termin e when to mut e
and unmute the receive a udio and also whe n valid data
may be present. The squelch circuit is controlled by
the amount of nois e present in the receive audio sig nal.
When no signal or a weak signal is being received,
there is a large amount of noise present. Conversely,
when a strong signal is received, there is very little
noise present.
The microphone audio signal is coupled by C349
to amplifier U303B which provides a gain of approximately two. R410, R414, and C354 provide a bias
voltage of approximately 3.2 volts on the noninverting input. An 8-volt supply voltage to the microphone amplifier is provide d by R40 1, C348, and R406.
From U303B the microphone signal i s couple d by
C350 to a high-pass filter formed by U303C and
several other components. This filter attenuates

CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
frequencies below 300 Hz that could cause interference with LTR data and Call Guard signals.
Gate U308B blocks the microphone signal when
microphone audio is not trans mitted such as dur ing the
data handshake to set up the call. A high signal on pin
5 closes the gate and passes the signal. This gate is
controlled by the Q6 output (pin 13) of latch U110.
Transistor Q307 functions as an inverter and level
translator.
3.5.2 SUMMING AMPLIFIER (U303D), PRE-
EMPHASIS/LIMITER (U303A)
U303D amplifies the transmit audio signal and
also the transmit data signal from an optional modem
if one is used. Jumper R398 is installed to route the
modem signal to U303D and the filtering circuitry, or
jumper R399 is installed to route a wideband signal
directly to the synthesizer so that it bypasses the
filtering circuitry. U308A closes when wideband (25
kHz) channels are sel ected . This b ypasses R403 whic h
provides a higher deviation level with those channels.
NOTE: If the wideband da ta inp ut is use d, the exter nal
device must provide FCC-approved modulation
limiting and splatter filter circuitry and a stable DC
level.
The output signal from U303D is then routed via
the option wireouts to U303A which provi de s li mit ing
and 6 dB per octave pre-emphasis. This stage is an
amplifier which limits by satu rating. Limiti ng prevents
over-modulation caused by high-level input signals.
R370 and R378 set the input level to the next stage,
and C334 provides DC blocking.
3.5.4 TRANSMIT DATA CIRCUIT (U302D,
U302A)
The transmit LTR data and Call Guard tone/data
signals are generat ed by th e microcont roller on pins 37
and 38. The four logic combinations possible with
these two outputs are applied to a resistor network
consisting of R389, R392, R386, and R395. This
network creates a four-step pseud o sine wave from the
digital outputs. This signal is applied to a low-pass
filter formed by U302D and U302A. This filter attenuates harmonics present in the signal which provides
smoothing of the stepped sine wave.
The passband of this filter is controlled by Q306
which switches additional capacitance into the circuit.
When LTR or digital Call Guard data or lowfrequency tone Call Guard signaling is being transmitted, Q306 is turned on and the cut-off frequency
decreases to approximately 150 Hz. Then when a
high-frequency tone Call Guard signal is being transmitted, Q306 is turned off and the cut-off frequency
increases to appr oxi mately 220 Hz. Q306 is controlled
by the same signal used to control Q300 in the receive
data circuit (see Section 3.4.3).
U308C provides gating of the transmit data
signal. When the control input (pin 6) is high, the gate
is closed and the signal is passed. Test gate U307A is
used in the test mode to bypass the data filter to
provide the wideband data signal required for setting
modulation balance. Q303 and Q308 provide level
translation and inversion. The transmit data signal is
then fed to d igital pote ntiometer U802 on the RF
board which sets the data deviation level. Refer to
Section 3.7.4 for more information.
3.6 DISPLAY BOARD
3.5.3 SPLATTER FILTER (U302B, U302C)
U302B and U302C form a five-pole, low-pass
splatter filter which attenuates frequencies above
3 kHz. This prevents adjacent channel in te rf ere nce.
Frequencies over 3 kHz may be produced if limiting
occurs in the limiter stage just described. The signal is
then fed to digital potentiometer U802 on the RF
board which sets the deviation level. Refer to Section
3.7.4 for more information.
Control of most display board functions is
provided by microcontroller U2. This device contains
a 2K byte ROM and 128 byte RAM and has 20 I/O
lines. It communicates with microcontroller U101 on
the audio/logic board via the SPI serial bus consisting
of SCK, MOSI, and MISO lines (see Section 3.3.1).
When there is data to send to the audio/logic board,
such as if an option switch is pressed, U2 issues a
service request on the Service Request Out line (J1,
pin 6).

DISPLAY DESCRIPTION
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The functions controlled by U2 are as follows:
• Display controller U1 programming
• Backlight control
• Transmit/Busy indicator CR4 control
• Front panel option switch detection
• Front panel Select switch detection
• Microphone hanger off-hook detection.
The use of a separate microcontroller on the
display board minimizes the number of interconnections required with the audio/logic board because
separate lines are not required for each of the
preceding functions.
When the front panel Select switch is pressed, the
two PBNO lines are shorted together. Then when it is
rotated clockwise, low pulses appear on the CW line,
and when it is rotated counterclockwise, low pulses
appear on the CCW line. The contrast and viewing
angle of the display are set by potentiometer R46.
3.7 SYNTHESIZER CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
(UHF MODELS)
3.7.1 INTRODUCTION
The synthesizer block diagram is part of the RF/
PA board diagram shown in Figure 3-4. The synthesizer output signal is produced by a VCO (Voltage
Controlled Oscillator) located in a separate module
attached to the RF b oard. Th e fre quency o f the VCO is
controlled by a DC voltage from the phase detector in
synthesizer integrated circuit U804.
The phase detector senses the phase and
frequency difference between a highly stable signal
from the reference oscillator (fR) and a frequency
produced by dividing down the VCO signal (fV).
When the signal from the VCO is the same as the reference frequency, the VCO is on the correct frequency . If
the VCO-derived signal is not the same, the VCO
control voltage increases or decreases to change the
VCO frequency until they are the same. The VCO is
then “locked” on frequency.
The reference input (fR) to the phase detector is
produced by dividing down the signal from reference
oscillator U806. The fR input is 50 kHz for all UHF
channels. Therefore, the reference divider in U804
divides the 14.850 MHz reference oscillator signal by
297. The TCXO frequency stabili ty is 2.0 PPM, so thi s
is also the stability of the synthesizer (and the second
injection signal which is derived from the TCXO
frequency).
The VCO-derived input t o the phase detector (fV)
is the VCO frequency di vided down by programmable
dividers in synthesizer U804. The prescaler and main
divider are programmed for each channel to produce
an input frequency to the phase detector (fV) that is
the same as the 50 kHz refer enc e frequency (fR) when
the VCO is oscillating on the correct frequency. Refer
to Section 3.7.5 for more information on U804
operation.
3.7.2 VOLTAGE-CONTROLLED OSCILLATOR
Introduction
The VCO module is a sepa rate assemb ly that is
soldered directly to the RF board and covered by a
metal shield. It uses a ceramic substrate that can easily
be damaged by excessive heat; therefore, it is recommended that modules which have been removed using
a standard soldering iron not be reused. In addit ion, the
VCO center frequency is set by laser tuning ceramic
resonator L101. Therefore, it is not possible to adjust
this freque ncy if it chang es as the result of changing a
part. For these reasons, the VCO is consi dered not f ield
serviceable.
Oscillator (Q102)
The VCO is formed by bipolar transistor Q102,
ceramic resonator L101, and several capacitors and
varactor diodes. It oscillates at the transmit frequency
in the transmit mode and 45 MHz below the receive
frequency in the receive mode (the first injection
frequency).
Biasing of Q102 is provided by R108 and R112,
and stabilization is provided by R114. Inductor L102
functions as an RF choke, and an AC voltage divider
formed by C112, C115, and C119 starts and maintains
oscillation and matches Q102 to the tank circuit.
The tank circuit consists of laser tuned inductor
L101, varactor diodes CR101, CR103-CR106, and
several capacitors. Inductor L101 is laser trimmed to

CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
set the VCO to the center of the operating band when
the control voltage is at its midpoint.
The output signal on the collector of Q102 is
coupled by C108 to a cascode buffer amplifier formed
by Q100 and Q101. This is a shared-bias amplifier
which provides amplification and also isolation
between the VCO and stages which follow. C113
provides impedance matching on the input, and the
resistors in the circu it provide bi asing and sta bilizat ion
(R100 also provides current limiting). C100, C101,
and C106 are RF decoupling capacitors, and C105
provides an AC ground on the base of Q100.
The output signal on the collector of Q101 is
directly coupled to the emitter of Q100. Impedance
matching on the output of Q100 is provided by L100,
C102, and C103. Resistor R102 lowers the Q of L100
to make is less frequency selective. The VCO signal is
then fed to buffer Q801 and synthesizer chip U804 on
the RF board.
VCO Frequency Shifting
In a particular UHF band, the VCO must be
capable of producing frequencies from the receiver
first injection frequency for the lowest channel up to
the transmit frequency for the highest channel. Since
the first injection frequency is 45 MHz below the
receive frequency and the frequency band could be up
to approximately 42 MHz wide, this results in a
required VCO frequency spread of up to 87 MHz. If
this large frequency shift was achieved only by
varying the VCO control volt age, the VCO gain would
be undesirably high. Instead, capacitance is switched
in and out of the tank circuit to provide a coarse shift
in frequency and fine shift is provided by the control
voltage.
This switching is provided by PIN diodes CR104
and CR105 and controlled by a logic signal from the
Q0 and Q1 outputs (pins 4 and 5) of shift register
U800. When a PIN diode i s for w ar d b ia sed, i t presents
a very low impedance to RF si gnals. Conver sely, when
it is reverse biased, it presents a very high impedance
to RF signals.
Forward biasing one of these PIN diodes adds
capacitance to the tank c ircuit which lowers its resonant frequency. Capacitance is added to the circuit
when the con t rol signal is low. Therefore, the lowest
frequency is selected when both control lines are low,
and the highest frequency is selected when both are
high.
For example, when Shift 1 goes low, CR104 is
forward biased by current flowing through R103 and
L105. Capacitor C111, which is part of the tank
circuit, is then effectively AC grounded through
CR104 and C107/C123. The control line is isolated
from tank circuit RF by choke L105 and decoupling
capacitor C104. The Shift 1 and Shift 2 logic signals
for each band segment are listed in Section 4.3.3.
Frequency Control and Modulation
Fine VCO frequency control is performed by
varying the DC voltage across varactor diodes CR103
and CR106 (coarse control is provided as described in
the preceding description). As the DC voltage applied
to a reverse-biased varactor diode increases, its capacitance decreases. Therefore, the VCO frequency
increases as the control voltage increases and vice
versa. The amount of frequency change produced by
CR103 is set by series capacitor C118 and varactor
diode CR106. The control line is isolated from tank
circuit RF by L103 and C122.
The VCO is frequency modulated in a similar
manner. Another capacitance leg of the tank circuit is
formed by C116 and CR101. The audio and data
modulation signal is applied across varactor diode
CR101, and a fixed bi as fr om a vol tage d ivider forme d
by R853 and R854 is applied through R851 to pin 5.
Isolation and fi lter ing of thi s DC s upply i s pr ovided by
C838, C839, C840, and R852. Refer to Section 3.7.4
for more information on modulation.
3.7.3 ACTIVE FILTER (Q800), BUFFER
AMPLIFIER (Q801)
Q800 functions as a capacitance multiplier to
provide a filtered 5.5-vol t supply to the VCO. Resist or
R827 provides bias, and C814 provides the capacitance that is multiplied. CR800 decreases the time
required to charge C814 when power is turned on. If a
noise pulse or other voltage change appears on the
collector, the base voltage does not change significantly because of C814. Therefore, base current does
not change and the voltage on the emitter remains
constant.

UHF SYNTHESIZER DESCRIPTION
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
Part of the VCO output signal is fed out of the
VCO on pin 2 and applied to a second harmonic filter
formed by C842 and L802. A 50-ohm load is provi ded
by R855, with C841 providing impedance matching.
Part of the VCO sign al is a ls o f ed out of t he VCO
on pin 1 and applied to a 50-ohm, 3 dB pad formed by
R842, R839, and R843. The signal is then fed to buffer
amplifier Q801. Impedance matching is provided by
C822, C826, and L801, and temperature-compensated
bias is provided by R830, R833, R844, and CR801.
Transistor Q801 provides isolation and also amplifies
the signal to produce an output level of approximately
0 dBm. Capacitors C817 and C813 decouple RF
signals, and L800, C818, C827, R836, R837, and
R847 provide impedance matching and the proper
signal levels to the receiver and exciter. R832 lowers
the Q of L800 to make it less frequency selective.
3.7.4 VCO AND TCXO MODULATION
NOTE: If the wideband da ta inp ut is use d, the exter nal
device must pr ovi de FCC-approved modul ati on li mit ing and splatter filter circuitry and a stable 2.5 VDC
reference level.
audio signal is applied to pins 2 and 4 which are the
wiper and one leg of a potentiometer. It is fed out on
pin 3 which is the other leg of the potentiometer (see
Figure 3-4). Likewise, the data signal is fed in on pins
22 and 24 and out on pin 23.
These variable resistors set the modulation level
of the audio and data signals and also allow the microcontroller to provide frequency compensation. This
compensation is required because modulation tends to
increase as the VCO frequency increases (tank circuit
capacitance decreases).
The output signals on pins 23 and 3 of U802 are
then combined with the wideband data signal and
applied to summing amplifier U803. The out put s ign al
from U803 is then applied to the reference oscillator
on pin 1 and also to a potentiometer on pin 19 of
U802. The output on pin 18 of U802 is applied to the
VCO on pin 5. This modulates both the reference
oscillator and VCO, and the potentiometer in U802
adjusts the balance of these signals.
3.7.5 SYNTHESIZER INTEGRATED CIRCUIT
(U804)
Both the reference oscillator and VCO are modulated in order to provide the required frequency
response. If only the VCO was modulated, the phase
detector in U804 would sense the frequency change
and change the control voltage to counteract the
change, especially at the lower audio frequencies. If
only the reference oscillator was modulated, the VCO
frequency would not change fast enough, especially at
the higher audio frequencies. By modulating both, a
relatively flat response is provided to all modulation
frequencies.
Separate audio, data, and wideband data modulation signals are applied t o the syn thesizer on J201, p ins
18, 17, and 16, respectively. The data signal includes
LTR and Call Guard sign aling, while the wideband
data signal comes directly from an external device
such as a modem without passing through the limiting
and filtering circuitry.
The levels of th e a udi o a nd data signals are se t by
digitally controlled variable resistors in U802. These
resistors are adjusted in 256 steps by serial data from
the microcontroller (see Section 3.3.1). The transmit
Introduction
A block diagram of synthesizer IC U804 is shown
in Figure 3-5. This integrated circuit contains the
following stages. The basic operation of U804 is
described in Section 3.7.1.
• Reference divider
• Main divider
• Prescaler (÷64/65)
• Phase and lock detectors
• Charge pump and divid er programming circuitry.
Channel Programming
Channels are selected by programming the main
divider in U804 to divide by a certain number. This
programming is p erformed by the mi crocontr oller over
the SPI serial data bus which consists of CLOCK,
DATA, and STROBE lines (see Section 3.3.1). As
previously described, this divider is programmed so
that when the VCO is oscillating on th e correct
frequency, the fR and fV inputs to the phase detector
are the same frequency.

Part No. 001-9800-001
UHF SYNTHESIZER DESCRIPTION
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
Operation
As stated in Section 3.7.1, the fR input to the
main phase detector is 50 kHz for all channels (either
6.25 or 10 kHz channel spacing). The 14.850 MHz
reference oscillator frequency is divided by 297 to
produce this signal. Frac tional-N divi sion with modulo
5 or 8 selection allows the loop frequency to be 5 or 8
times the channel spacing. Modulo 8 is used to allow
6.25 kHz (12.5 kHz) channel spacing.
The fV input is produced by dividing down the
VCO frequency applied to the RF IN input. The first
divider is a prescaler which is a special counter
capable of operating at relatively high frequencies.
This counter divides by 64 and 65 in this application.
This divides a signal in the 400 MHz range down to
approximately 6 MHz. For each main divider output
pulse, the prescaler divides by 65 for a certain number
of pulses and then 64 for an additional number of
pulses. The number counted in each mode is determined by the programming of the “N” and “A” divide
numbers. The basic operation is as follows:
The main divider begins counting down from the
“A” number. Then when zero is reached, it begins
counting down from the “N” number until zero is
reached. The cycle then repeats. While it is counting
down the “A” number, the prescaler divides by 65, and
while it is counting down the “N” number, it divides
by 64.
To illustrate the operation of these dividers, an
example will be used. Assume a transmit fre que ncy of
450.750 MHz is selected. Since the VCO oscillates on
the transmit frequency in the transmit mode, this is the
frequency that must be produced by the VCO. To
produce this frequency, the “N” and “A” divide
numbers are programmed as follows:
N = 83A = 55
To determine the overall divide number of the
prescaler and main divide r, the number of input pulses
required to produce one main divider output pulse can
be determined. Al though th e programmed “N” number
is 83 in this example, the divide number is al ways two
higher (85) because of reset cycles and other effects.
Therefore, the prescaler divides by 65 for 55 x 65 or
3575 input pulses. It then divides by 64 for 85 x 64 or
5440 input pulses. The overall divide number K is
therefore 3575 + 5440 or 9015 . The VCO frequency of
450.750 MHz divided by 9015 equals 50 kHz which is
the fR input to the phase detector.
If the VCO frequency is not evenly divisible by
50 kHz, there is also a fractional-N number
programmed that provides the required fractional
divide number. Refer to the 800/900 MHz description
in Section 3.10.6 for more information.
NOTE: The formulas for calculating the N and A
divide numbers are described in Section 4.3.5.
3.7.6 LOCK DETECT
When the synthesizer is locked on frequency, the
LOCK output of U804 (p in 18) is a logic h igh vo lt age.
Then when the synthesizer is unlocked, this voltage is
low. A locked condition exists when the phase difference at the TCXO input is less than one cycle.
3.7.7 CHARGE PUMP
The charge pump circuit in U804 charges and
discharges C833- C836 i n t he loop filter to produce the
VCO control voltage. Resistors connected to the RN
and RF pins set the charge current. The RF pin resistance is set by a digitally controlled potentiometer in
U802. This resistance changes with the frequency
band in order to minimize fractional-N spurious
signals. The loop filter provides low-pass filtering
which controls synthesizer stability and lockup time
and suppresses the loop reference frequency (50 kHz).
3.7.8 SHIFT REGISTER (U800, U801) AND
DIGITAL POTENTIOMETER (U802)
PROGRAMMING
Shift register U800 functions as an I/O port
expander, and shift register U801 functions as a D/A
converter to provide a 256-step output voltage for
adjusting transmit ter power. In addition, the Q7 output
of U801 provides the transmit/receive signal. U802
contains four digitally controlled potentiometers that
are also adjustable in 256 steps.
These devices are cascaded together on the serial
bus so that data is shifted out of one device into

serial port of the microcontroller described in Section
3.3.1. The input to the internal shift register of these
devices is the DATA pin (U800/U801) or SDI pin
(U802), and the output of the la st shift regis ter st age in
U800 and U801 is the QS

on the Data line from the audio/logic board (J201, pin

U802.
Data is clocked through the devices by the
CLOCK signal (J201, pin 13) when the STROBE

low. Synthesizer IC U804 is also programmed by the

NOTE: The receiver block diagram is shown in
Figure 3-4.
3.8.1 FRONT END FILTER
The receive signal is fed from the ante nna switch

L201, several capacitors, and PIN diodes CR201 and

UHF RECEIVER DESCRIPTION
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
CR202. The function of this filter is to attenuate
frequencies outside the receive band such as the first
injection, image, and half IF frequencies. The passband frequency of the filter is shifted in four steps
using PIN diodes. These diodes are controlled by
microcontroller th rough th e Q2 and Q3 out puts of shif t
register U800. The control signals for each of four
band segments are listed in Section 4.4.
The PIN diodes present a very low impedance at
RF frequencies when forward biased and a very high
impedance when reverse biased. This allows them to
be used to switch capacitance in and out of the filter.
For example, when the lowest segment of the
frequency band is selected, both control signals are
high and the diodes are forward biased by current
flowing through R201-R204. Therefore, C207, C208,
C218, and C219 are effectively connected to ground
through CR201 and CR202 which l owers the passband
frequency of the filter.
Ceramic resonators L200 and L201 have a very
high Q and therefore cause very little receive signal
loss. Capacitors on the input and output of the filter
provide impedance matching with the adjoining
stages.
ance matching with the filter is pro vid ed by L203,
C227, C228, C234, and C235. Resistor R209 lowers
the Q of L203 to make it less frequency select ive.
C222-C226 decouple various unwanted AC signals
from the circuit.
3.8.3 FIRST MIXER (Q202), INJECTION
AMPLIFIER (Q204)
Q202 is a dual-gate MOSFET mixer. Impedance
matching at one gate is provided by C245, R214, and
L207. The first injection frequency from the synthesizer is applied to the other gate. Since the first IF is 45
MHz and low-side injection is used, the injection
frequency is 45 MHz below the receive frequency.
The signal from the synthesizer is amplified by
Q204. A 3 dB pad on the output, consisting of R225R227, sets the input level to the mixer. A low-pass
filter network formed by C262-C264 and L211 attenuates spurious frequen cies occurri ng above the injec tion
frequency band. Q203 provides a stable bias current
similar to Q200 described in Section 3.8.2. Temperature compensation is provided by CR206 which
mirrors the voltage drop across the base-emitter junction of Q204.
3.8.2 RF AMPLIFIER (Q201)
RF amplifier Q201 improves and stabilizes
receiver sensitivity and also recovers filter losses.
Several capacitors on the input and also L202 provide
impedance matching. CR203 protects the base-emitter
junction of Q201 from damage caused by high level
input signals.
The bias current of Q201 is fixed at a constant
level by Q200. The collector current of Q201 flows
through R207. The voltage drop across that resistor
(and therefore the current) is set by R205 and R206.
For example, if current through R207 attempts to
increase, the emitter voltage of Q200 decreases. Q200
then conduc ts less and tur ns Q201 off slightly to maintain a constant bi as current. This provi des a stable bias
over changes in temperature.
The output signal of Q201 is fed to another twopole bandpass filter similar to the one on the input of
Q201 as described in the preceding section. Imped-
Impedance matching on t he output of mixer Q202
is provided at 45 MHz by L208, C251, and C252. The
signal is then fed to Z204 which is a four-pole crystal
filter with a nominal –3 dB bandwidth of 15 k H z. Th is
filter attenuates wideband noise, adjacent channels,
frequencies resulting from intermodulation, and other
undesired frequencies. Impedance matching on the
input is provided by C251, C252, C266, C268, and
L213; impedance matching on the output is provided
by C270, C271, C272, L215, and R228.
3.8.4 SECOND MIXER/DETECTOR (U201)
Second Mixer
U201 contains second mixer, IF amplifier,
detector, RSSI, and audio amplifi er s ta ges as s hown i n
Figure 3-6. The 45 MHz IF signal is applied to pin 2
which is the input of an internal IF am plifier stage.
From the IF amplif ie r the signal is int ernally fed to th e
mixer which combines it with the 44.550 MHz second
injection frequency to produce a second IF of 450
kHz.

Diagram
The 44.550 MHz injection frequency on pin 4 is
produced by tripling the 14.850 MHz frequency of
reference oscillator U806. To do this, a portion of the
reference oscillator signal is applied to Q207 which is
an amplifier with the output tuned for the third
harmonic of the reference oscillator frequency. This
output tuning is provid ed by a two-pole ban dpass fi lter
formed by L219, C287, C288, L217, and C290. The
output level of this filter is approximately 0.25 V rms.
Ceramic Filters (Z202/Z206, Z205)
The 450 kHz output of the internal mixer is fed
out of U201 on pin 20. It is then routed through
ceramic filter Z202 for narrow-band (12.5 kHz) channels and through Z206 for wideband (25 kHz) channels. Z202 has a nominal bandwidth at the –3 dB
points of 8 kHz, and Z206 has a nominal bandwidth of
15 kHz. The function of this filter is to attenuate wideband noise present in the IF signal.
are then forward biased and CR207/CR208 reverse
biased. This routes the 450 kHz IF signal through
Z202 and blocks it from Z206. If a wideband channel
is selected, the opposite occurs. For more information
on the operation of PIN diodes, refer to Section 3.8.1.
The filtered 450 MHz IF signal is then applied to
pin 18, amplified by an inter nal ampl ifi er, and then fe d
back out on pin 16 and applied to ceramic filter Z205.
This filter is identical to Z206 and provides additional
attenuation of wideband noise. The loss introduced by
each ceramic filter is approximately 12 dB.
Limiter/Detector
The signal from Z205 is applied to an internal
limiter connected to pin 14. The limiter amplifie s the
450 kHz signal and then limits it to a specific value to
remove amplitude variations. From the limiter, the
signal is fed internally to the quadrature detector. An
external phase shift networ k connect ed to pin 10 shif ts
the phase of one of the detector input signals 90° at
450 kHz (the other input is unshifted in phase). When
modulation occurs, the frequency of the IF signal
changes at an audio rate as does the phase of the
shifted signal. The detector, which has no output with
a 90° phase shift, converts this phas e shift into an
audio signal. Inductor L219 is tuned to provide
maximum undistorted output from the detector.
The audio signal i s t he n fed internally to an audio
amplifier. The gain of this stage is set at about three by
R255 and R256. The audio output signal on pin 8 is
then fed to the audio/logic board.
Routing of the IF signal to t he appr opria te filt er i s
provided by Q205 and Q206, PIN diodes CR207CR210, and several resistors and capacitors. It is
controlled by the microcontroller through the Q4
output of shift register U800. This output is low for
narrow-band channels and high for wideband
channels.
If a narrow-band channe l i s sel ec te d, a low signal
is applied to the base of Q205. That transistor then
turns off and inverter Q206 turns on. CR209/CR210
Also in U201 is an RSSI detector which provides
a temperature compensated RSSI (Rece ive Signal
Strength Indicator) signal on pin 5. This is a low
impedance (2k ohm) output with a dynamic range of
70 dB. It provides an indication of IF signal strength
which changes in proportion to changes in signal
strength. It is routed to an A/D input of the microcontroller (pin 59) and used along with the squelch signal
to determine receive signal strength. R259/C304 and
R258/C303 provide low pass filtering, and C305 and
C306 decouple RF on the audio and RSSI output lines.

NOTE: A transmitter block diagram is in Figure 3-4.
3.9.1 FIRST AND SECOND AMPLIFIERS
Revised 430-470 MHz and all 470-512 MHz Models
The input signal to the exciter is the transmit
frequency from buffer amplifier Q801 in the synthesizer. It is at a level of approximately 0 dBm and is
applied to first amplifier Q509. Impedance matching
on the input of Q509 is provided by C540, C552,
L503, C550, C551, and L504. Biasing is provided by
R531 and R535, and C526/C527 and C521/C523
decouple RF signals. Impedance matching on the
output is provided by L501, C541, C555, and C556.
Second amplifier Q510 is similar in design to Q509.
These stages together produce about 20 dB of gain.
Power to Q509 is switched on in the transmit
mode by Q506 and Q507. This switch is controlled by
the microcontroller through the Q7 output (pin 11) of
shift register U801. This output is high in the transmit
mode and low in the receive mode. This signal also
controls the antenna switch circuit on the PA board
described in Section 3.9.4.
This transmit 8V supply is not delayed which
allows Q509 and the transmitter frequency to stabilize
before power is produced. The delayed PTT signal is
applied to the RF board on J201, pin 2. This signal
controls the power control circuit described in Section
3.9.6. The emitters of Q505 and Q507 are grounded
through Q508. That transistor is turned off when the
logic is in an undetermined state such as during Flash
programming. This ensures that the transmitter is
turned off dur ing these tim es.
Unrevised 430-470 MHz Models
The input signal to the exciter is the transmit
frequency from buffer amplifier Q801 in the synthesizer. It is at a level of approximately 0 dBm and is
applied to first amplifier Q506. Impedance matching
on the input of Q506 is provided by C529, C537,
L505, and C530. The input level is set by R528 and
R530. Biasing is provided by R520 and R525, and
C525/C526 and C520/C521 decouple RF signals.
Impedance matching on the output is provided by
L502, C570, C531, L506, and C532. Secon d ampl if ie r
Q507 is similar in design to Q506. These stages
together produce about 20 dB of gain. The 8-volt
supply to Q506 and Q507 is swi tch ed by Q504 similar
to the revised 430-470 MHz version just described.
3.9.2 THIRD AMP AND PREDRIVER
Revised 430-470 MHz and all 470-512 MHz Models
From Q510 the signal is fed to third amplifier
Q511 which is a power MOSFET that provides
approximately 10 dB of gain. Impedance matching
with Q510 is provided by L502, C542, C557. L505,
and C543. Resistors R532 and R534 lower the Q of
the input matching circuit which improves stability.
The gate of Q511 is biased by R527 and R528. Decoupling of RF signals is provided by C528/C529 and
C516/C517.
Supply voltage to Q511 is from the power control
circuit described in Section 3.9.6. This circuit varies
the supply voltage to ch ange the power output of Q51 1
in order to maintain constant transmitter power output.
Impedance matching with between Q511 and
predriver Q512 is provided by several capacitors and
sections of microstrip. Microstrip is a form of transmission line with distributed series inductance and
shunt capacitance. The characteristic impedance is
determined by the width of the microstrip and the PC
board material and thickness (distance from ground
plane).
Class C biasing of Q512 is provid ed by L50 6 and
ferrite bead EP2. Several more capacitors and s ections
of microstrip on the output of Q512 provide matching
with the 50-ohm input impedance of the power amplifier. This stage provides a gain of approximately 10
dB, resulting in a power input to the PA board of up to
approximately 8 watts.
Unrevised 430-470 MHz Models
From Q507 the signal is fed to third amplifier
Q508 which provides approximately 10 dB of gain.
Impedance matching with Q507 is provided by L503,
C571, C533, C538, L504, L507, C579, and C539.
Biasing is provided by R5542, R555, and R532.

UHF TRANSMITTER DESCRIPTION
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
Impedance matching between Q508 and Q509 is
provided by L501, severa l capacit ors, and t wo section s
of microstrip (microstrip is described in the preceding
section). Resistor R523 lowers the Q of L501 to make
it less frequency selective. Q508 is powered by the
switched battery supply. AC signals are decoupled
from this supply by C517-C519 and ferrite bead
EP500.
Predriver Q509 is an RF power MOSFET. The
gate is biased at approximately one-half the drain
voltage by R519 and R522. Capacitors C512-C516,
C522, and C523 provide decoupling of AC signals.
R524 and R527 lower the Q of the input matching
circuit which improves stability.
Supply voltage to Q509 is f rom the power c ontrol
circuit described in Section 3.9.6. This circuit varies
the supply voltage to change th e power output of Q509
in order to maintain constant transmitter power output.
RF choke L500, ferrite bead EP501, and several
capacitors isolate the power control circuit from RF
signals. Several capacitors and sections of microstrip
on the drain of Q509 provide an output impedance of
50 ohms to the power amplifier board. This stage
provides a gain of approximately 10 dB, resulting in a
power input to the PA board of up to approximately 8
watts.
3.9.4 ANTENNA SWITCH
The antenna switch circuit consists of Q602,
CR601, CR603, several other components, and also a
section of microstr ip and CR200 on th e RF board. This
circuit switches the antenna to the receiver in the
receive mode and the transmitter in the transmit mode.
Switching transistor Q602 is controlled by the
transmit signal from the Q7 output (pin 11) of shift
register U807. This is the same signal that controls
transmit 8-volt supply switch Q506/ Q507. This signal
is high in the transmit mod e and low in the receive
mode. Therefore, Q602 turns on in the transmit mode
and current flows from the collector of final amplifier
Q601 through L601, CR601/R602, L606, R608/
CR603, R609, and R610.
Diodes CR601 and CR603 are PIN diodes like
those in the receiver front end (see Section 3.8.1).
When a PIN diode is forward biased, it presents a very
low impedance. Therefore, the transmit signal has a
low-impedance path through CR601 to the directional
coupler and C614. With CR603 also for war d bi ased, it
effectively connects L606 to AC ground through
C652. A parallel resonant circuit is then formed by
L606 and C643 which presents a high impedance into
the receiver for the transmit signal.
3.9.3 DRIVER (Q600), FINAL (Q601)
Driver Q600 on the power amplifier board is used
with high power (40 watt) versions only. It is matched
to the 50 ohms by several capacitors and sections of
microstrip on the input. Class C self bias is provided
by L608 and ferrite bead EP603. F rom Q600 the signal
is fed to final amplifier Q601 which is similar in
design to Q600. Each stage has a gain of approximately 5 dB, resulting in an output power from Q601
of approximately 55 watts.
The supply voltage to these stages is the
unswitched battery supply. Therefore, power is
applied even when transceiver power is turned off.
Two RF chokes, a ferrite bead, and several capacitors
isolate this supply from RF signals. Current to final
amplifier Q601 flows through R600, and the power
control circuit monitors transmitter current by sensing
the voltage drop across it.
Further receiver isolation in the transmit mode is
provided by a grounded quarter-wave line. This
quarter-wave line is formed by the section of microstrip connected to C650/C651 and another section on
the RF board. The receiver end of this quarter-wave
line is AC grounded by PIN diode CR200 on the RF
board. This diode is forward biased in the transmit
mode by the 8-volt transmit supply applied through
R200. When one end of a quarter-wave line is
grounded, the other end presents a high impedance to
the quarter-wave frequency (the transmit frequency
band in this case). C650 and C651 on the PA board
provide impedance matching.
In the receive mode, all three PIN diodes are
reverse biased. Therefore, CR601 presents a high
impedance into the transmitter for the receive signal,
L606 presents a low impedance bec ause it is no long er
resonant, and the quarter-wave line presents a low
impedance because it is no longer grounded by
CR200.

3.9.5 DIRECTIONAL COUPLER , LOW-P ASS
FILTER
The transmit signal is fed to a directional coupler
formed by adjacent sections of microstrip. The
forward component of output power is rectified by
CR602 and developed across R607 and fed to the
power control cir cuit . Revers e power is not de tecte d in
this transceiver.
From the directional coupler th e transm it signal is
fed to a low-pass harmonic filter formed by L602L604 and several capacitors. This filter attenuates
harmonic frequencies occurring above the transmit
band. R603 dissipates static buildup on the antenna.
The ambient power amplifier temperature is
sensed by thermistor R601. The resistance of a thermistor decreases as temperature increases. R601 and
R143 on the audio/logic board form a voltage divider,
and the voltage across this divider is monitored by an
A/D converter input of the microcontroller (pin 63). If
the PA temperature increases above limits set in software, the power is first cut back. Then if it continues
to rise, the transmitter is turned off.
3.9.6 P OWER CONTROL ( U500A/B , Q500-Q503)
Introduction
The power control circuit maintains a constant
power output as changes occur in temperature and
voltage. It does this by varying the supply voltage to
predriver Q509 (unrevised 430-470 MHz) or third
amplifier Q511 (all others). This changes the power
output of th at stage which in turn controls the power
output of th e transmitter. The power control circuit
senses forward power to control power output. The
current to final amplifier Q601 is also sensed, but it
affects power output only if it becomes excessive.
Gradual power shutdown then occurs.
The power output level is set in 12 7 st eps by D/A
converter U801 that is controlled by the microcontroller. This allows power to be adjusted from the front
panel using the test mode and also different power
levels to be programmed for each system. In addition,
it allows the microcontroller to cut back power when
power amplifier temperature is excessive as just
described.
U500A, Q500/Q502 Operation
The forward power signal from the directional
coupler is applied to pin 2 of a mp lifi er U5 00A. Thi s i s
a DC signal that increases in proportion to forward
power . The ot her in put t o U500A is a DC vol tage from
a D/A converter formed by shift register U801 and
several resistors. This stage is similar i n de si gn t o D/ A
converter U305 described in Section 3.4.4. Programming of U801 is described in Section 3.7.8. The
voltage from this D/A converter sets the reference
voltage on pin 3 which sets the power output of the
transmitter.
U500A is a difference amplifier which amplifies
the difference between the reference voltage on pin 3
and the forward power signal on pin 3. The turn-on
time of U500A is controlled by the time constant of
C502 and R508. Negative AC feedback to prevent
oscillation is also provided by C502. This circuit operates as follow s: Assume the output power attempts to
increase. The DC voltage applied to U500A, pin 2
then increases which causes the output voltage on pin
1 to decrease. T ransist ors Q502 an d Q500 then turn off
slightly which decreases the supply voltage to
predriver Q509 (or third amplifier Q511). The output
power then decreases to maintain a co nstant power
output. R510 and R513 limit the voltage gain of Q500
and Q503 to approximately two.
Delayed PTT
Transis tor Q503 i s used t o delay po wer outpu t for
a short time after the transmitt er is keyed. This allows
the synthesizer and the e xciter to stabilize so that the
transmitter does no t trans mit o f f-fr equenc y. The signal
which controls Q503 is from the Q2 output (pin 17) of
latch U111 on the audio/logic board. In the receive
mode this output is low, so Q503 is off. Pin 2 of
U500A is then pulled high by the 8-volt supply
applied through R505 and CR503. This causes the
output on pin 1 of U500A to go low which shuts off
power to Q509 (or Q511). Then when the transmitter
is keyed, the Q503 control signal goes high after a
short delay. Q503 then turns on and diode CR503 is
reverse biased. Only the forward power signal is then
applied to pin 2 of U500A.

800/900 MHz SYNTHESIZER DESCRIPTION
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
Over Current Shutdown
Current to final amplifier Q601 on the PA board
is monitored by sensing the voltage drop across R680.
Pins 5 and 6 of U500B are effectively connected
across this resistor. As current increases, the voltage
on U500B, pin 6 decreases which causes the output
voltage on pin 7 to increase. The gain of each U500B
input is set at ten by R509/R504 and R507/R502.
Emitter biasing for Q501 is provided by R506
and R511. Normally, the output voltage of U500B is
not high enough to turn on Q501. However, if current
becomes excessive, for example beca use of an an tenna
mismatch, Q501 begins turning on. This decreases the
base voltage of Q502 which turns off Q500 slightly
and cuts back power output.
3.10 SYNTHESIZER CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
(800/900 MHz MODELS)
3.10.1 INTRODUCTION
The synthesizer block diagram is part of the RF/
PA board diagram shown in Figure 3-7. The synthesizer output signal is produced by a VCO (Voltage
Controlled Oscillator) located on a separate module
attached to the RF b oard. Th e fre quency o f the VCO is
controlled by a DC voltage from the phase detector in
synthesizer integrated circuit U804.
The phase detector senses the phase and
frequency difference between a highly stable signal
from the reference oscillator (fR) and a frequency
produced by dividing down the VCO signal (fV).
When the signal from the VCO is the same as the
reference frequency, the VCO is on the correct
frequency. If the VCO-derived signal is not the same,
the VCO control voltage increases or decreases to
change the VCO frequency until they are the same.
The VCO is then “locked” on frequency.
The reference input (fR) to the phase detector is
produced by dividing down the signal from reference
oscillator U806. The fR input is 50 kHz for all 800 and
900 MHz channels. Therefore, with 900 MHz models,
the reference divider in U804 divides the 14.850 MHz
reference oscillator signal by 297, and with 800 MHz
models, it divides t he 1 7.500 MHz reference oscil la tor
signal by 350. The TCXO frequency stability is 1.5
PPM, so this is also the stability of the synthesizer
(and the second injection signal which is derived from
the TCXO frequency).
The VCO-derived input t o the phase detector (fV)
is the VCO frequency di vided down by programmable
dividers in synthesizer U804. The prescaler and main
divider are programmed for each channel to produce
an input frequency to the phase detector (fV) that is
the same as the 50 kHz refer enc e f requency (fR) when
the VCO is oscillating on the correct frequency. Refer
to Section 3.10.6 for more information on U804
operation.
3.10.2 VOLTAGE-CONTROLLED OSCILLATOR
Introduction
The VCO module is a sepa rate assemb ly that is
soldered directly to the RF board and covered by a
metal shield. It uses a ceramic subs tr at e t hat can easily
be damaged by excessive heat; therefore, it is recommended that modules which have been removed using
a standard soldering iron not be reused. In addit ion, the
VCO center frequency is set by laser tuning ceramic
resonator L907. Therefore, it is not possible to adjust
this freque ncy if it changes as the res ult of changing a
part. For these reasons, the VCO is consi dered not f ield
serviceable.
Oscillator (Q902)
The VCO is formed by bipolar transistor Q902,
ceramic resonator L907, and several capacitors and
varactor diodes. It oscillates at the transmit frequency
in the transmit mode and 52.950 (800 MHz) or 45
MHz (900 MHz) below the receive frequency in the
receive mode (the first injection frequency).
Biasing of Q902 is provided by R906 and R908,
and stabilization is pro vid ed by R912. Induct or L906
functions as an RF choke, and C924 is an AC bypass
capacitor. An AC voltage divider formed by C913,
C917, and C921 starts and maintains oscillation and
matches Q9 02 to the tank circuit.
The tank circuit consists of laser tuned inductor
L907, varactor diodes CR902-CR904, and several
capacitors. Inductor L907 is laser trimmed to set the

800/900 MHz SYNTHESIZER DESCRIPTION
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
VCO to the center of the operating band when the
control voltage is at its midpoint.
The output signal on the collector of Q902 is
coupled by C91 1 to a buffer amplifier fo rmed by Q901
and Q903. This is a shared-bias amplifier which
provides amplification and also isolation between the
VCO and stages which follow. C918 provides impedance matching on the input, and the resistors in the
circuit provide biasing and stabilization (R913 also
provides current limiting). C901, C902, and C908 are
RF decoupling capacit ors, and C909 and C91 9 prov ide
an AC ground on the emitters of Q901 and Q903.
The output signal on the collector of Q903 is fed
through C914 to synthesizer U804. A 50-ohm load is
provided by R855, and C841, C842, and C849 provide
impedance matching. Likewise, the output signal on
the collector of Q901 is fed through C904 to buffer
amplifier Q801 (see Section 3.10.5). Resistor R902
lowers the Q of L903 to make is less frequency
selective.
VCO Frequency Shifting
In the applicable 800 or 900 MHz band, the VCO
must be capable of producing frequencies from the
lowest receiver first injection frequency up to the
highest talk-around mode transmit frequency. At 800
MHz, the lowest VCO frequency is 798.0625 MHz
(52.950 MHz below the lowest receive frequency of
851.0125 MHz) and the hig hest talk-around fr equ enc y
is 869.9875 MHz. Therefore, the VCO freque ncy band
spread is approximately 72 MHz. If this large
frequency shift was achie ved only by varying the VCO
control voltage, the VCO gain would be undesirably
high. Instead, c apa cit an ce is switched in and out of the
tank circuit to provide a coarse frequency shift.
800 and 900 MHz). The logic levels on pins 3 and 4 of
the VCO are as follows:
Pin 3Pin 4
Normal Mode H (5.5V)L (0V)
Talk-Around ModeL (0V)H (5.5V)
In the normal mode, CR901 is forward biased by
current flowing through R903, L905, CR901, and
L902. Capacitors C907 and C912 are then effectively
AC grounded through CR901 and C905. The control
lines are isolated from tank circuit RF by L902/C903,
L905/C906, C811, C812, C823, and C824.
Frequency Control and Modulation
Fine VCO frequency control is performed by
varying the DC voltage across varactor diodes CR903
and CR904 (coarse control is provided as described in
the preceding description). As the DC voltage applied
across a reverse-biased varactor diode increases, its
capacitance decreases. Therefore, the VCO frequency
increases as the control voltage increases and vice
versa. The amount of frequency change produced by
CR903 and CR904 is set by series capacitor C922. A
DC ground is provide d by L90 8, and t he con trol line is
isolated from tank circuit RF by L909 and C925.
The VCO is frequency modulated in a similar
manner. Another capacitance leg of the tank circuit is
formed by C915, C920, and varactor diode CR902.
The audio and data modul ation signa l is appl ie d acr oss
CR902, and a fixed bi as fr om a vol tage d ivider forme d
by R853 and R854 is applied through R851 to pin 5.
Isolation and filtering of this DC bias is provided by
C838, C839, C840, and R852. Refer to the next
section for more information on modulation.
This switching is provided by PIN diode CR901
which is controlled by the logic signals from the Q0
and Q1 outputs (pins 4 and 5) of shift register U800.
Q803 and Q804 function as inverters and drivers.
When a PIN diode is forward biased, it presents a ver y
low impedance to RF signals. Conversely, when it is
reverse biased, it presents a very high impedance.
Forward biasing of PIN diode CR901 adds capacitance to the tank circuit which lowers its resonant
frequency. The diode is forward biased in the normal
mode and reverse biased in the talk-arou nd mode (both

cially at the lower audio frequencies. Conversely, if
only the reference oscillator was modulated, the VCO
frequency would not change fast enough, especially at
the higher audio frequencies. By modulating both, a
relatively flat response is provided for all modulation
frequencies.
Separate audio, data, and wideband data modulation signals are applied t o the syn thesizer on J201, p ins
18, 17, and 16, respectively. The data signal includes
LTR and Call Guard signaling, and the wideband data
signal (if use d) comes directly fr om a n external device
such as a modem and does not pass through the
limiting and filtering circuitry.
The levels of the a udio and data signal s a re set by
digitally controlled variable resistors in U802. These
resistors are adjusted in 256 steps by serial data from
the microcontroller (see Section 3.3.1). The transmit
audio signal is applied to pins 2 and 4 which are the
wiper and one end of a potentiometer. It is fed out on
pin 3 which is the other end of the potentiometer (see
Figure 3-7). Likewise, the data signal is fed in on pins
22 and 24 and out on pin 23. These variable resistors
set the modulation level of the audio and data signals
and also allow the microcontroller to provide
frequency compensation. This compensation is
required because modulation tends to increase as the
VCO frequency increases (tank circuit capacitance
decreases).
The output signals on pin 23 and 3 are then
combined with the wideband da ta signal and applie d to
summing amplifier U803. The output signal from
U803 is then applied to the reference oscillator on pin
1 and also across the potentiometer connected to pin
19 of U802. The output on pin 18 is applied to the
VCO on pin 5. This modulates both the reference
oscillator and VCO. The resi stor ac ross pi ns 19 and 18
of U802 adjusts the balance of these signals.

the voltage on the emitter remains constant.
The output signal on pin 2 of the VCO is applied
to buffer amplifier Q801. Impedance matching on the
input is provided by C822 , a section of microst ri p, and
C826. Microstrip is a form of transmission line with
distributed series inductance and shunt capacitance.
The characteristic impedance is de termined by the
width of the microstrip and the PC board material and
thickness (distance from ground plane). This stage
provides isolation and also amplifies the signal to
produce an output level of approximately 0 dBm.
The bias current of Q801 is fixed at a constant
level by Q802. The collector current of Q801 flows
through R830. The voltage drop across that resistor
(and therefore the current) is set by R836 and R837.
For example, if current through R830 attempts to
increase, the emitter voltage of Q802 decreases. Q802
then conducts less and turns Q801 off slightly to maintain a constant bias current. This pr ovi des a stable bias
over changes in temperatu re.
Capacitors C813, C817, C827, and C844
decouple RF signals, and a section of microstrip and
C818 provide impedance matching with the transmit/
receive switch. R832 lowers the Q of the m icrostrip to
make it less frequency selective.
The transmit/receive switch formed by CR801,
CR802, and several other components switches the
VCO signal to the r eceive r in t he re ceive mode an d the
transmitter in the transmit mode. CR801 and CR802
are PIN diodes similar to CR901 described in Section
3.10.2. Therefore, they present a very low impedance
when forward biased a nd a very high impedance when
reverse biased.
Q800 functions as a capacitance multiplier to
provide a filtered 7.0-vol t supply to the VCO. Resistor
R827 provides bias, a nd C814 provides t he capacitance
that is multiplied. CR800 decreases the time required
to charge C814 when power is turned on. If a noise
pulse or other voltag e cha nge ap pea rs on the collector,
the base voltage doe s not change significantly because
These diodes are controlled by the Q2 sign al from
shift register U800. This signal is high in the transmit
mode and low in the receive mode. Therefore, when
the transmitter is keyed, both Q805 and Q806 turn on
and CR801 and CR802 are forward biased by the
current flowing through Q806, R856, L800, CR801,
CR802, R857, and Q805.

800/900 MHz SYNTHESIZER DESCRIPTION
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
This effectively AC grounds the receiver end of
the quarter-wave line throug h CR802 and C847. When
one end of a quarter-wave line is grounded, the other
end presents a high impedance to the quarter-wave
frequency. Therefore, the VCO signal is blocked from
the receiver by the quarter-wave line and has a low
impedance path through CR801 to the transmitter.
In the receive mode, both diodes are reverse
biased. The quarter-wave line is then no longer
grounded and provides a low impedance path to the
receiver while CR802 provides a high impedance into
the transmitter. L801/C846 and L800/C845 improve
isolation by neutralizing the slight capacitance of
CR801 and CR802 when they are reverse biased.
3.10.6 SYNTHESIZER INTEGRATED CIRCUIT
(U804)
Introduction
A block diagram of synthesizer IC U804 is shown
in Figure 3-5 on page 5-16. This integrated circuit
contains the following stages. The basic operation of
U804 was described in Section 3.10.1.
tional-N division with modulo 5 or 8 selection allows
the loop frequency to be 5 or 8 times the channel
spacing. W it h 8 00 and 900 MHz c hannels , mo dulo 8 is
used to allow 6.25 kHz (12.5 kHz) channel spacing.
The fV input is produced by dividing down the
VCO frequency applied to the RF IN input. The first
divider which divides this signal is a prescaler which
is a special counter capable of operating at relatively
high frequencies. The prescaler divides by 64 and 65
which reduces a signal in the 800 MHz range down to
approximately 12 MHz. For each main divider output
pulse (fV), the prescaler divides by 65 for a certain
number of pulses and then 64 f or an ad ditio nal nu mber
of pulses. The number counted in each mode is determined by the programming of the “N” and “A”
numbers. The basic operation is as follows:
The main divider begins counting down from the
“A” number. Then when zero is reached, it begins
counting down from the “N” number until zero is
reached. The cycle then repeats. While it is counting
down the “A” number , the prescal er divides by 65, and
while it is counting down the “N” number, it divides
by 64.
• Reference (R) divider
• Main divider
• Prescaler (÷64/65)
• Phase and lock detectors
• Charge pump and divi der pro grammi ng circ uitry
Channel Programming
Channels are selected by programming the main
divider in U804 to divide by a certain number. This
programming is performed by the microco ntroller over
the SPI serial data bus which consists of CLOCK,
DATA, and STROBE lines (see Section 3.3.1). As
previously described, this divider is programmed so
that when the VCO is oscillating on the correct
frequency, the fR and fV inputs to the phase detector
are the same frequency.
Operation
As stated in Section 3.1 0.1, the fR input to the
main phase detector is 50 kHz for all channels. The
reference oscillator frequency is divided by 350 (800
MHz) or 297 (900 MHz) to produce this signal. Frac-
To illustrate the operation of these dividers, an
example will be used. Assume a transmit fre quen cy of
813.4875 MHz is selected (800 MHz FCC channel
300). Since the VCO oscillates on the transmit
frequency in the transm it mode, this is the frequency
that must be produced by the VCO. To produce this
frequency, the “N” and “A” divide numbers are
programmed as follows:
N = 239A = 13
To determine the overall divide number of the
prescaler and main divider, the number of prescaler
input pulses required to produce one main divider
output pulse can be determined. Although the “N”
number is 239 in this example, the actual divide
number is always two higher (241) because of reset
cycles and other effects. Therefor e, the prescaler
divides by 65 for 13 x 65 or 845 input pulses. It then
divides by 64 for 241 x 64 or 15,424 input pulses.
Since the VCO frequency is not evenly divisible
by 50 kHz, there is also a fractional-N number
programmed that provides the required fractional

800/900 MHz SYNTHESIZER DESCRIPTION
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
divide number. In this example the fractional-N increment is .75 x 8 (modulo N) or 6. This causes the prescaler to divide by 65 for one additional output pulse
for 6 of 8 main divider cycles. This produces a divide
number that is .75 higher. Therefore, with the
preceding example, the overal l divide number K is 845
+ 15,424 + .75 or 16,269.75. The VCO frequency of
813.4875 MHz divided by 16,269.75 equals 50 kHz
which is the fR input to the phase detector.
NOTE: The formulas for cal cul at in g t he “N” and “A”
divide numbers are described in Section 4.3.5.
3.10.7 LOCK DETECT
When the synthesizer is locked on frequency, the
LOCK output of U804 (p in 18) is a logic hig h voltage.
Then when the synthesizer is unlocked, this voltage is
low. A locked condition exists when the phase difference at the TCXO input is less than one cycle.
3.10.8 CHARGE PUMP
The charge pump circuit in U804 charges and
discharges C833-C837 in the loop filte r to produce the
VCO control voltage. Resistors connected to the RN
and RF pins set the charge current. The RF pin resistance is set by a digitally controlled potentiometer in
U802. This resistance changes with the frequency
band in order to minimize fractional-N spurious
signals. The loop filter provides low-pass filtering
which controls synthesizer stability and lockup time
and suppresses the loop reference frequency (50 kHz).
3.10.9 SHIFT REGISTER (U800, U801) AND
DIGITAL POTENTIOMETER (U802)
PROGRAMMING
Shift register U800 functions as an I/O port
expander, and shift register U801 functions as a D/A
converter to provide a 256-step output voltage for
adjusting trans mitter power. In addition, the Q7 output
of U801 provides the delayed transmit signal. U802
contains four digitally controlled potentiometers that
are adjustable in 256 steps.
3.3.1. The input to the internal shift register of these
devices is the DATA (U800/U801) or SDI (U802) pin,
and the output of the last shift register stage in U800
and U801 is the QS
pin. Therefore, serial data on the
Data line from the audio/logic board (J201, pin 14) is
first shifted into U801, then U800, and then U802.
Data is clocked through the devices by the
CLOCK signal (J201, pin 13) when the STROBE
input (J201, pin 12) is high and latched when it goes
low. Synthesizer IC U804 is also programmed by the
SPI port. However, data does not pass through the
other devices because it is controlled by a different
STROBE signal (J201, pin 1).
3.11 RECEIVER CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
(800/900 MHz MODELS)
NOTE: The receiver block diagram is in Figure 3-7.
3.11.1 FRONT END FILTER
The receive signal is fed from the ante nna switch
circuit on the PA board to the receiv er fr ont end on the
RF board. The signal is fed through a quarter-wave
line that is part of the antenna switch as are C202,
CR200, and R200. Refer to Section 3.12.3 for more
antenna switch information. The receive signal is then
applied to bandpass filter Z200. With 800 MHz
models, this is a three-pole filter with a center
frequency of 860 MHz and a bandwidth of 18 MHz.
With 900 MHz models, it is a two-pole filter with a
center frequency of 938 MHz and a bandwidth of 6
MHz. This filter attenuates frequencies outside the
receive band such as the fir st injec tion, image, and hal f
IF frequencies.
3.11.2 RF AMPLIFIER (Q201)
RF amplifier Q201 improves and stabilizes
receiver sensitivity and also recovers filter losses. A
section of microstrip and C214 provide impedance
matching on the input. CR203 protects the baseemitter junction of Q201 from damage caused by high
level input signals.
These devices are cascaded together on the serial
bus so that data is shifted out of one device into
another. Programming is performed using the SPI
serial port of the microcontroller described in Section
The bias current of Q201 is fixed at a constant
level by Q200. The collector current of Q201 flows
through R207, and the volta ge dro p ac ross t hat r esis tor
(and therefore the current) is set by R205 and R206.

Part No. 001-9800-001
800/900 MHz RECEIVER DESCRIPTION
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
For example, if current through R207 attempts to
increase, the emitter voltage of Q200 decreases. Q200
then conduc ts less and tur ns Q201 off slightly to maintain a constant bi as current. This provi des a st able bias
over changes in temperature.
The output signal of Q201 is fed to another bandpass filter similar to the one on the input described in
the preceding section. Impedance matching with the
filter is provided by a section of microstrip on the
collector and C227. Resistor R209 lowers the Q of the
microstrip to make it less frequency selective. C222C226 decouple various unwanted AC signals from the
circuit.
3.11.3 FIRST MIXER (Q202), CRYSTAL
FILTER (Z204)
The signal from Z201 is then applied to mixer
Q202. A 3-dB pad on the output of Z201 formed by
R215-R217 sets the input level to the mixer. Impedance matching between the pad and mixer is provided
by a section of microstrip and C245.
Q202 is biased by constant current source Q203
similar to Q200 described in the preceding section.
The injecti on signal is applied to the emitter of Q202
and is at a level of approximately 10 dBm. With 800
MHz models, the injection frequency is 52.950 MHz
below the receive frequency, and with 900 MHz
models, it is 45 MHz below the receive frequency.
Filtering of the injection signal is provided by twopole bandpass filter Z203. With 800 MHz models, it
has a center frequenc y of 807 MHz and a ba ndwidth o f
18 MHz; and with 900 MHz models, it has a center
frequency of 893 MHz and a bandwidth of 6 MHz.
The 52.950 or 45.000 MHz o utput si gnal of mi xer
Q202 is then applied to crystal filter Z204. Impedance
matching between Q202 and 50-ohm, 3 dB pad R210R212 is provided by L220, C231, and C232. Resistor
R214 lowers the Q of L220 to make it less frequency
selective. Matching between the pad and Z204 is
provided by C265, C266, C268, and L213.
Z204 is a four-pole crystal filter. With 800 MHz
models it has a center frequency of 52.950 MHz and a
-3 dB bandwidth of 15 kHz, and with 900 MHz
models it has a center frequency of 45 MHz and a -3
dB bandwidth of 7.5 kHz. This filter attenuates wideband noise, adjacent channels, frequencies resulting
from intermodulation, and other undesired frequencies. Impedance matching between this filter and
U201 is provided by C271, C272, L215, and R228.
3.11.4 SECOND MIXER/DETECTOR (U201)
Introduction
U201 contains second mixer, IF amplifier,
detector, RSSI, and audio amplifier s ta ges as s hown i n
Figure 3-6 on page 5-18. The IF signal is applied to
pin 1 which is the input of an internal IF amplifier
stage.
Second Mixer
From the IF amplifier the signal is internally fed
to the mixer which combines it with the 52.500 MHz
(800 MHz models) or 44.550 MHz (900 MHz models)
second injection frequency to produce a second IF of
450 kHz.
The injection frequency on pin 4 is produced by
tripling the frequency of reference oscillator U806. To
do this, part of the re ference os cillat or signal i s applied
to tripler Q207. This stage is an amplifier with the
output tuned for the third harmonic of the reference
oscillator frequency. This output tunin g is provided by
a two-pole bandpass filter formed by L219, C287,
C288, L217, and C290. The output level of this filter
is approximately 0.25 V rms.
Ceramic Filters (Z202/Z206, Z205)
The 450 kHz output of the internal mixer is fed
out of U201 on pin 20 and routed to ceramic filter
Z202 for all 900 MHz and 800 MHz narrow-band
(12.5 kHz) channels, or Z206 for 800 MHz wideband
(25 kHz) channels. Z202 has a nominal bandwidth at
the –3 dB points of 8 kHz, and Z206 has a bandwidth
of 15 kHz. The function of these filters is to attenuate
wideband noise present in the IF signal.
Routing of the IF s ignal to t he appr opria te filt er is
provided by Q205 and Q206, PIN diodes CR207CR210, and several resistors and capacitors. It is
controlled by the microcontroller through the Q4
output of shift register U800. This output is low for
narrow-band channels and high for wideband
channels.

Part No. 001-9800-001
800/900 MHz TRANSMITTER DESCRIPTION
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
If a narrowband channel is selected, a low signal
is applied to the base of Q205. That transistor is then
turned off and inverter Q206 turned on. CR209/CR210
are then forward biased and CR207/CR208 reverse
biased. This routes the 450 kHz IF signal through
Z202 and blocks it from Z206. If a wideband channel
is selected, the opposite occurs. For more information
on the operation of PIN diodes, refer to Section 3.11.1.
The filtered 450 MHz IF signal is then applied to
pin 18, amplified by an internal amplifier, and fed
back out on pin 16 and applied to ceramic filter Z205.
This filter is identical to Z206 and provides additional
attenuation of wideband noise. The loss introduced by
each ceramic filter is approximately 12 dB.
Limiter/Detector
The signal from Z205 is applied to an internal
limiter connected to pin 14. The limiter amplifies the
450 kHz signal and then limits it to a specific value to
remove amplitude variations. From the limiter, the
signal is fed internally to the quadrature detector. An
external phase shift networ k connect ed to pin 10 shifts
the phase of one of the detector input signals 90° at
450 kHz (the other input is unshifted in phase). When
modulation occurs, the frequency of the IF signal
changes at an audio rate as does the phase of the
shifted signal. The detector, which has no output with
a 90° phase shift, converts this phase shift into an
audio signal. L218 is tuned to provide maximum
undistorted output from the detector.
The audio signal i s t he n f ed internally to an a udi o
amplifier. The gain of this stage is set at about th ree by
R255 and R256. The audio signal is then fed out on
pin 8 and routed to the audio/logic board.
Also in U201 is an RSSI detector which provides
a temperature compensated RSSI (Receive Signal
Strength Indicator) signal on pin 5. This is a low
impedance (2k ohm) output with a dynamic range of
70 dB. The DC voltage of this output changes in
proportion to IF signal strength. This signal is routed
to an A/D input of the microcontroller (pin 59) and
used along with the squelch signal to determine
receive signal strength. R259/C304 and R258/C303
provide low pass filtering of the audio and RSSI
signals, and C305 and C306 decouple RF.
NOTE: The transmitter block diagr am is located in
Figure 3-7.
3.12.1 PREDRIVER (Q506), DRIVER (Q507)
The input signal to the exciter is the transmit
frequency from buffer amplifier Q801 in the synthesizer. It is at a level of approximately 0 dBm and is
applied to predriver Q50 6. Impedance mat ching on the
input of Q506 is provided by C529, C515, two
sections of microstrip (see description in Section
3.10.5), R518, and C516. Biasing is provided by
R519, R520, R522, and R523. Various AC signals are
decoupled from the DC supply by C520, C525, C526,
C528, and C531.
The 8-volt supply voltage to th is stage is switche d
on in the transmit mode by Q505 and Q504. This
switch is controll ed by the micr ocontr olle r t hrough t he
Q7 output (pin 11) of shift register U801. This output
is high in the transmit mode and low in the receive
mode. This signal also controls the antenna switch
circuit on the PA board described in Section 3.12.3.
This transmit 8V supply is not delayed which
allows Q505 and the transmitter frequency to stabilize
before power is produced. The delayed PTT signal is
applied to the RF board on J201, pin 2. This signal
controls the power control circuit described in Section
3.12.5. The emitters of Q503 and Q505 are grounded
through Q509. That transistor is turned off when the
logic is in an undetermined state such as during Flash
programming. This ensures that the transmitter is
turned off during these times.
From Q506 the transmit RF output signal is then
applied to driver Q507. Impedance matching between
Q506 and Q507 is provided by several capacitors and
sections of microstrip and L501. Resis tor R521 lowe rs
the Q of the parallel microstrip which makes it less
frequency selective. Q507 is biased for class C operation by L504 and ferrite bead EP501.
Supply voltage to Q5 07 is fro m the power c ontrol
circuit described in Section 3.12.5. This circuit varies
the supply voltage of Q507 which changes its power
output to maintain constant transmitter power output.

800/900 MHz RECEIVER DESCRIPTION
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
RF chokes L502 and L503, ferrite bead EP502, and
several capacitors isolate the power control circuit
from RF signals.
A 50-ohm, 3 dB pad formed by R529-R531
provides an output impedance of 50 ohms at the J602.
Impedance matching between Q507 and this pad is
provided by two sections of microstrip, C524, and
C527. Power output at J602 is typically up to 250
milliwatts.
3.12.2 PO W ER AMPLIFIER MODULE (U600),
FINAL (Q651)
Power amplifier module U600 on the PA board
has approximately 19 dB of gain. Pins 2, 3, and 4 of
U600 are the supply voltage inputs to three separate
gain stages. The supply voltage on pin 2 (VS1) is
switched by Q600 and limited to 12 volts by CR601
and R600. Switch Q600 is controlled by the same
signal used to control 8V transmit switch Q505/Q504
(see Section 3.12.1).
The supply voltage applied to pins 3 and 4 (VS2/
VS3) is the unswitched battery from the power jack
fed through R601. Therefore , power is applie d to these
pins of U800 even when transceiver power is turned
off. The power control circuit senses transmitter
current by monitoring the voltage drop across R601.
Switching transistor Q602 is controlled by the
transmit signal from the Q7 output (pin 11) of shift
register U801. This is the same signal that controls
transmit 8-volt supply switch Q505/ Q504. This signal
is high in the transmit mod e and low in the receive
mode. Therefore, Q602 turns on in the transmit mode
and current flows from the collector of Q601 through
R610, R609, CR604, L604, CR602/R602, and L602.
In addition, 8 volts is applied through R200 to CR200
located at the input of the receiver on the RF board.
CR200, CR602 and CR604 are PIN diodes like
CR901 described in Section 3.10. 2. When a PIN diode
is forward biased, it presents a very low impedance.
Therefore, in the tran smit mode th e tra nsmi t sig nal has
a low-impedance path to the antenna through CR602
and coupling capacitor C621.
The signal is blocked from the receiver by two
grounded quarter-wave lines. A discrete quarter-wave
line is formed by C635, C622, and L604 is effectively
AC grounded on the receiver end by CR604 and C633.
When one end of a quarter-wave line is grounded, the
other end presents a high impedance to the quarterwave frequency. Therefore, this line presents a high
impedance into the receiver for the transmit signal.
Further receiver isolation is provided by another
quarter-wav e line in the recei ver. This line is grounded
through C202 by CR200.
The output signal on U600, pin 5 is then applied
to Q651 (30 watt models only). With lower power
models, Q651 is not used. Amplifier Q651 provides
approximately 5 dB of gain. The output impedance on
U600, pin 5 is 50 ohms, and it is matched to Q651 by a
section of microstrip, C651, C652, and C653. Class C
bias of Q651 is provided by L651. The unswitched
battery supply applied to Q651 is isolated from RF by
L602, EP601, and several capacitors. Impedance
matching is provided on the output by C654-C656,
C614, and two sections of microstrip.
3.12.3 ANTENNA SWITCH
The antenna switch circuit consists of Q602,
CR602, CR604, several other components, and also a
quarter-wave section of microstrip and CR200 on the
RF board. This circuit switches the antenna to the
receiver in the receive mode and the transmitter in the
transmit mo de.
In the receive mode, all three PIN diodes are
reverse biased. Therefore, CR602 presents a high
impedance into the transmitter for the receive signal,
and since the two quarter-wave lines into the receiver
are no longer groun ded, the re is a low-impedance path
into the receiver. L604 presents a low impedance
because it is no longer grounded by CR604, and the
quarter-wav e l ine pre sen ts a low impedance becaus e i t
is no longer grounded by CR200. Resistors R602 and
R608 improve the isolation provided by CR602 and
CR604 when they reverse biased (receive mode).
3.12.4 DIRECTIONAL COUPLER, LOW-
PASS FILTER
A directional coupler is formed by adjacent
sections of microstrip near C621. The forward component of output power is rectified by CR603 and devel-

oped across R606 and then fed to the power control
circuit. Reverse power is not detected in this
transceiver.
From the directional coupler th e transm it signal is
fed to a low-pass harmonic filter formed by C624C627 and several sections of microstrip. This filter
attenuates harmonic frequencies occurring above the
transmit band. R607 dissipates static buildup on the
antenna.
The ambient power amplifier temperature is
sensed by thermistor R601. The resistance of a thermistor decreases as temperature increases. This thermistor forms a voltage divider with R143 on the audio/
logic board, and the voltage across this divider is
monitored by an A/D converter input of the microcontroller (pin 63). If the PA temperature increases above
limits set in software, the power is first cut back. Then
if it continues to rise, the transmitter is turned off.
3.12.5 POWER CONTROL (U500A/B, Q500-
Q503)
Introduction
The power control circuit maintains a constant
power output as changes occur in temperature and
voltage. It does this by varying the supply voltage to
driver Q507. This changes the power output of that
stage which in turn controls the power output of the
transmitter.
The primary signal sensed to control power
output is forward power from the directional coupler.
The current to final amplifier Q601 is also sensed, but
it affects power output only if it becomes excessive.
Gradual power shutdown then occurs.
The power output level is set in 127 steps by the
microcontroller through D/A converter U801. This
allows power to be adjusted from the fro nt pan el using
the test mode and also different power levels to be
programmed for each syste m. In addi tion, i t allows t he
microcontroller to cut back power when power ampli-
fier temperature or transceiver voltage is excessive as
just described in Section 3.12.4.
U500A, Q500/Q502 Operation
U500A is a differential amplifier which amplifies the difference between the reference voltage on
pin 3 and the forward power signal on pin 2. The
forward power signal from the directional coupler is a
DC signal that increases in proportion to forward
power. The reference input is a DC voltage from the
D/A converter formed by shift register U801 and
several res istors. This stage is similar to U305
described in Section 3.4.4, and programming of U801
is described in Section 3.10.9. This reference voltage
effectively sets the power output of the transmitter.
The turn-on time of U500A is controlled by the
time constant of C502 and R508. Negative AC feedback to prevent oscillation is also provided by C502.
This circuit operates as follows: Assume the output
power attempts to increase. The DC voltage applied to
U500A, pin 2 then increases which causes the output
voltage on pin 1 to decrease. Transistors Q502 and
Q500 then turn off slight ly whic h decrea ses the supp ly
voltage to driver Q507. The output power then
decreases to maintain a constant power output. R510
and R513 limit the voltage gain of Q500 and Q503 to
approximately two.
Delayed PTT
Transis tor Q503 i s used t o delay po wer outpu t for
a short time after the transmitt er is keyed. This allows
the synthesizer, Q506 in the exciter, and the first stage
of PA module U60 0 to stabilize so that the tr ansmitter
does not transmit off-frequency. The signal which
controls Q503 is from the Q2 output (pin 17) of latch
U111 on the audio/logic board. In the receive mode,
this output is low which turns Q503 of f. U500A, p in 2,
is then pulled high by 8 volts applied through R505
and CR503. The output of U50 0A on pin 1 is then low
which shuts off power to Q507. Then when the transmitter is keyed, Q503 turns on after a short delay and
diode CR503 is no longer forward biased. Only the
forward power signal is then applied to pin 2 of
U500A.

800/900 MHz TRANSMITTER DESCRIPTION
Over Current Shutdown
Current to the s econd and third am plifie r stages in
power module U600 on the PA board is monitored by
sensing the voltage drop across R601. Pins 5 and 6 of
U500B are effectively connected across this resistor.
As current increases, the voltage on U500B, pin 6
decreases which causes the output voltage on pin 7 to
increase. The gain of each U500B input is set at about
ten by R509/R504 and R502/R507.
Emitter biasing for Q501 is pr ovided by R506 and
R511. Normally, the output voltage of U500B is not
high enough to turn on Q501. However, if current
becomes excessive, for example beca use of an an tenna
mismatch, Q501 begins turning on. This decreases the
base voltage of Q502 which turns off Q500 slightly
and cuts back power output. Over-current shutdown is
disabled in 15-watt models bec ause CR500 is not used.

4.1 GENERAL
CAUTION
LTR-Net models may automatically transmit during
normal operation and at power off to send r egist ration
and de-registration messages. Therefore, when a
signal generator is conne ct ed to these models, be sure
to use an isolation pad.
4.1.1 PERIODIC CHECKS
This transceiver should be placed on a periodic
maintenance schedule to ensure that it continues to
operate properly. Important checks are receiver sensitivity and transmitter frequency, deviation, and pow er
output.
4.1.2 SCHEMATIC DIAGRAMS AND
COMPONENT LAYOUTS
Schematic diagrams and component layouts for
the various PC boards used in this transceiver ar e
located in the back of this manual. Included are RF
and audio/logic board and interconnect schematics.
The component layouts permit easy location of
components and measurement points. For the RF and
audio/logic boards, a component locator guide and
grid around the boards are provided to aid in locating
components. All boards in this transceiver have
components mounted on one side only. Therefore,
most servicing can be done without removing the
board from the chassis.
4.1.3 REPLACEMENT PARTS
A replacement parts list for this transceiver is
located in Section 5. The main listing includes the RF
board and chassis parts and another listing includes
the audio/logic board parts. Parts are listed alphanumerically according to designator. For information on
ordering parts, refer to Section 1.9. An exploded view
of the transceiver is also included at the end of Section
6 to show the various mechanical parts.
4.1.4 CONFIGURING T RANSCEIV ER FOR
TESTING
Multi-Net versions of this transceiver have a test
mode which can be selected to perform testing. This
mode is described in Section 3.13 of the manual listed
in Section 1.1.1, and it permits the transceiver to be
operated manually. To select the test mode , turn power
on with the top two options switches pressed (to right
of display).
LTR-Net and SMARTNET/SmartZone transceivers do not have a separate test mode that can be
selected to perform testing. With these transceiv er s,
temporary conventional channels should be
programmed to control the transceiver manually.
If adjustments must be made to the various audio
and data levels, a computer and special tune software
are required. The software and procedure is different
with each operating protocol. Refer to the separate
manual listed in Section 1.1.1 for transceiver alignment instructions.
4.2 SURFACE MOUNTED DEVICES (SMDs)
4.2.1 SERVICING TECHNIQUES
Most of the components used in this transceiver
are the surface mounted t ype . Sinc e these components
and the circuit traces on which they are mounted are
very small in size, special care must be used when
they are replaced. Multi-leaded components such as
integrated circuits must usually be removed using a
heat gun or some other type of heat source that heats
the entire device. Take care so that nearby components are not damaged. Surface mounted components
should not be reused since they may be damaged by
the unsoldering process.
4.2.2 IDENTIFYING SMD RESISTORS
The value of resistors is indicated by a number
printed on the resisto r. A three-digit number is used to
identify ±5% and ±10% resistors, and a four-digit
number is used to identify ±1% resistors. Refer to the
following information.

February 2001
Part No. 001-9800-001
SERVICING
± 5% and ± 10% Resistors (P.N. 569-0105-xxx)
The three-digit number used to identify ±5% and
±10% resistors corresponds to the last three digits of
the EFJohnson part n umber. This number is derived as
follows. For example, “273” indicates a 27k ohm
resistor and “339” indicates a 3.3 ohm resistor.
Some resistors with a ±1% tolerance are identified
by a four-digit number and others may not have a
marking. When identified with a four-digit number,
the first three digits are the value and the fourth is the
multiplier. For example, “5761” indic ates a 5.76 k ohm
resistor.
4.2.3 SMD CAPACITOR IDENTIFICATION
Ceramic SMD Capacitors (P.N. 510-36xx-xxx)
Ceramic SMD capacitors are identified using
either an American or Japanese EIA standard. The
American standard uses a single letter or number to
indicate the value, and the color of this letter or
number to indicate the multiplier. The Japanese standard uses a letter to indicate the value followed by a
number to indicate the multiplier. The values for both
standards are shown in the following table. For
example, if there is a singl e black “E” on the capacitor,
it uses the American standard and its value is 15 pF.
The same va lue is identified with the Japanese standard by “E1”.
The Japanese standard may also utilize a bar to
indicate the temperature coefficient. The following
coefficients are indicated by this bar. For example,
“A2” indicates a 100 pF NPO capacitor.
Tantalum SMD capacitor identification varies
with vendor and physical size of the capacitor. The
positive (+) end is usually indicated by a colored band
or beveled edge. The value and voltage may be
indicated by printing on the capacitor or by using a
special code.
4.2.4 SMD INDUCTOR IDENTIFICATION
SMD inductors (P.N. 542-9000-xxx) use three
colored dots to indicate the value. Th e two d ots on the
left side indicate the first and second digits of the
value in nanohenries, and the single dot on the right
side indicates the multiplier (see Table 4-2). For
example, brown, black, and red dots indicate a value
of 10 nH x 100 which is 1000 nH (1.0
µH). The last
three digits of the part number are also the value and
multiplier.
4.2.5 TRANSISTOR/DIODE IDENTIFICATION
Surface mounted transistors and diodes are identified by a special number. Refer to page 6-1 for more
information.
is low. This is detected by the logic which then
disables both the transmitter and receiver.
When the VCO is unlocked, the fR and fV i nputs
to the phase detector in U804 ar e usually not the same
frequency (see Figure 4-1). The phase detector in
U804 then causes the VCO co ntrol vol tage to go t o the
high or low end of its operating range. This, in turn,
causes the VCO to oscillate at the high or low end of
its frequency range.
4.3 SYNTHESIZER TROUBLESHOOTING
4.3.1 INTRODUCTION
When there is a synthesizer malfunction, the
VCO is usually not locked on frequency. When the
VCO is unlocked, the LOCK output on U804, pin 18,
As shown in Figure 4-1, a loop is formed by the
VCO and the prescaler, N counter, and phase detector

However, cor re ct operation of the c ount er s c an sti l l be
verified by measuring the input and output frequencies
to check the divide number. Proceed as follows:

4.3.2 REFERENCE OSCILLATOR (U806)
Check the signal at U806, pin 8. With 800 MHz
models, it should be 17.500 MHz, and with UHF and
900 MHz models, 14.850 MHz. The level should be
approximately 400 mV rms. If this signal is not
present, replace the reference oscillator because it is
not serviceable.
4.3.3 VCO MODULE
The VCO is a separate assembly that is covered
by a metal shield and soldered directly to the RF PC
board. This module cannot b e repair ed. One reaso n for
this is that the center frequency is set by laser tuning
ceramic resonator L101 (UHF) or L907 (800/900
MHz) and cannot be re adjusted i f it chan ges as a res ult
of changing a part . In addit ion, t he VCO ha s a c eramic
substrate that can easily be damaged by excessive
heat. It is also recommended that modules that have
been removed using a standard soldering iron not be
reused.
Perform the following checks on the VCO
module to determine if it is defective.

Frequency - If th e VCO is locked on fr equency, in the
receive mode the output frequency should be the
receive frequency – 52.950 MHz (800 MHz models)
or the receive frequency – 45 MHz (UHF and 900
MHz models). In the transmit mode it should be the
transmit frequency. If it is not locked on frequency, it
should be near the low end of its operating frequency
range when the control voltage is low and near the
high end of its range when the control voltage is high.
4.3.4 SYNTHESIZER IC (U804)
Since U804 does not have output pins from the
various counters, their operation cannot be checked.
However, the following signals can be checked to
verify proper operation of U804.
Supply Voltage - The supply voltage at pin 15 should
be 5.0 VDC (UHF) or 7.0 VDC (800/900 MHz).
Output Level - The output level on pins 1 or 2 can be
measured with an RF voltmeter or some other type of
high-impedance meter. The typical output level at
these points should be 0 dBm.
Control Voltage - Check the DC voltage on pin 7
with a channel near the middle of the band select ed. I f
the VCO is locked on frequency, it should be a steady
voltage between 1.1 and 5.2 volts. If it is not locked
on frequency, it should be near the lower (1.1 V) or
upper (5.2 V) end of its range.
Frequency Shift Inputs - The pin shift signals on
pins 4 and 3 should be as follows (L = 0V, H = 5V):
Ref Osc In (p in 8) - Check the reference oscillator
output frequency and level as described in Section
4.3.2.
VCO RF In (pin 6) - Check the VCO output as
described in the preceding section.
VCO Control Voltage (pins 13, 14) - If the VCO
frequency is too low, the signal on these pins should
be high with very narrow negative-going pulses.
Conversely, if the VCO frequency is too high, the
signal should be low with very narrow positive-going
pulses.
Lock Detect Output (pin 18) - This output should be
high when the synthesizer is locked on frequency and
low when it is unlocked.
NOTE: For more information on the operation of the
counters in U801, refer to Section 3.7.5.
Overall Div No. (K) = VCO freq ÷ .050
Example: 813.4875 ÷ .050 = 16,269.75
“A” Divide No. = 64 x Fraction (Integer K ÷ 64)
Example: 16,269 ÷ 64 = 254.20312
Fraction 254.20312 = 0.20312
64 x 0.20312 = 13

4.5 TRANSMITTER SERVICING
To isolate a transmitter problem to a specific
stage, check the DC and RF voltages shown on the
schematic diagram.
4.6 AUDIO/LOGIC BOARD SERVICING
4.6.1 DIGITAL CIRCUITS
Because of the complexi ty and dynamic operation
of the digital portion of the audio/logic board,
servicing may be difficult. Special test equipment and
knowledge of the operating software are usually
needed to isolate a problem. There fore, if a problem is
suspected with the digital circuitry, it may be best to
first make sure that the proper supply voltages are
present and then replace the audio/logic board.
4.6.2 ANALOG CIRCUITS
The analog circuits on the audio/logic board can
be checked by measuring the AC and DC voltages
shown on the schematic diagram.
4.4 RECEIVER SERVICING
To isolate a receiver problem to a specific
section, check the DC and RF voltages shown on the
schematic diagram.
