4-1 RECEIVER CIRCUITS
4-1-1 ANTENNA SWITCHING CIRCUIT (RF UNIT)
The RF signals from the antenna connector pass through
the limitter (D68) and an attenuator (D69). The signals are
then applied to the RF circuit the antenna switching circuit
(D13, D73, D75) which suppress out-of-band signals.
4-1-2 RF CIRCUIT (RF UNIT)
The RF circuit amplifies the received signals within the
range of frequency coverage and filters out-of-band signals.
(1) 0.495 MHz–29.999 MHz
RF signals (0.495–29.999MHz) from an antenna switching
circuit (D73) pass through a low-pass filter (C511–C515,
L81, L82). The filtered signals are amplified at an RF amplifier (Q505) passing through each band-pass filter depending
on the receiving frequency. The amplified signals are then
applied to the 1st mixer circuit (IC1) after being amplified at
another RF amplifier (IC11) via the band switching
diode(D71).
The signals below 1.9 MHz pass through a low-pass filter
(C534, C535, C657, C658, L88, L89) via the band switching
diode (D66), and are then applied to the RF amplifier circuit
(Q505) via the band switching diode (D67).
The 1.9 MHz–14.995 MHz signals pass through the band
switching diode (D65) and band-pass filter (C522–C531,
L85–L87, L91), and are then applied to the RF amplifier circuit (Q505) via the band switching diode (D70).
The 15 MHz–29.995 MHz signals pass through the band
switching diode (D63) and high-pass filter (C516–C520,
L83, L84) and are then applied to the RF amplifier circuit
(Q505) via the band switching diode (D64).
(2) 118 MHz–174.995 MHz, 330 MHz–832.995 MHz
RF signals (118 MHz–174.995 MHz, 330 MHz–832.995
MHz) from an antenna switching diode (D75) are passed
through each bandpass filter and RF amplifier, and are then
applied to the 1st mixer circuit (IC1) via the band switching
diode (D71) and RF amplifier (IC11).
The 118 MHz–174.995 MHz signals pass through the band
switching diode (D74) and low-pass filter (C8–C13, C67,
C416, L14, L57–L59, L70), and are then amplified at RF
amplifier (Q14). The amplified signal passes through the
tunable band-pass filters (D1, D2) and band switching diode
(D25).
The 330 MHz–469.995 MHz signals are amplified at RF
amplifier (Q35) via the band switching diode (D3) and bandpass filter (C19–C23, C216, L2–L5). The amplified signal
passes through the tunable band-pass filters (D3, D4) and
band switching diode (D29).
The 470 MHz–832.995 MHz signals are amplified at RF
amplifier (Q24) via the band-pass filter (C32, C33,
C35–C37, C39, C144, C145), between the band switching
diode (D11, D32).
(3) 30–117.995 MHz, 175–329.995 MHz
The 30 MHz–117.95 MHz, 175 MHz–329.995 MHz signals
pass through the low-pass filter (C40–C43, C665, C666, L9,
L10, L92), and are then applied to the RF amplifier (Q36).
The amplified signals are amplified at the RF amplifier (IC11)
via band switching diodes (D34, D71). The amplified signals
are applied to the 1st mixer circuit (IC1).
(4) 833 MHz–1309.995 MHz
The 833 MHz–1309.995 MHz signals pass through the
bandpass filter (C5, C45–51, L11–L13, L43), and are then
applied to the RF amplifier (Q26). The amplified signals are
amplified at the RF amplifier (IC11) via band switching
diodes (D36). The amplified signals are applied to 1st mixer
circuit (IC1).
4-1-3 1ST MIXER CIRCUIT (RF UNIT)
The 1st mixer circuit converts the received RF signals to a
fixed frequency of the 1st IF signal with a PLL output frequency. By changing the PLL frequency, only the desired
frequency will pass through the bandpass filters at the next
stage of the 1st mixer.
The filtered RF signals are mixed with 1st LO signals at the
1st mixer circuit (IC1) to produce a 266.7 MHz 1st IF signal.
The 1st IF signal is output from pin 6, and passed through
the bandpass filter (FI1) to suppress unwanted harmonic
components. The filtered 1st IF signal is applied to the 2nd
mixer circuit.
The 1st LO signals are generated at the 1st VCO (Q28, Q30,
D45) and are applied to the 1st mixer (IC1, pin 3) directly or
passing through the doubler circuit (Q31) after being amplified at the buffer amplifiers (IC4, Q40).
4-1-4 1ST IF AND 2ND MIXER CIRCUITS (RF UNIT)
The 2nd mixer circuit converts the 1st IF signal to a 2nd IF
signal.
The filtered 266.7 MHz 1st IF signal from the bandpass filter
is mixed with the 2nd LO signal at the 2nd mixer circuit
(IC10, pin 1) to produce a 19.65 MHz 2nd IF signal. The 2nd
IF signal pass through (except WFM mode) or bypass (WFM
mode) the bandpass filter (FI3), and is then amplified at the
2nd IF amplifier (Q5). The amplified signal is applied to the
demodulator circuit.
4-1-5 DEMODULATOR CIRCUITS (RF UNIT)
The demodulator circuit converts the 2nd IF signal into AF
signals.
The 19.65 MHz 2nd IF signal from the 2nd IF amplifier (Q5)
is applied to the 3rd mixer section of the FM IF IC (IC2, pin
16) and is then mixed with the 3rd LO signal for conversion
into a 450 kHz 3rd IF signal.
