Basic Maintenance
Introduction
This section of the manual describes preventive maintenance, safe handling of CMOS devices, and repair
procedures and techniques. Each of these topics provides information vital to the successful operation and
maintenance of your radio.
Preventive Maintenance
The radios do not require a scheduled preventive
maintenance program; however, periodic visual
inspection and cleaning is recommended.
Inspection
Check that the external surfaces of the radios are clean,
and that all external controls and switches are functional. A detailed inspection of the interior electronic
circuitry is not needed or desired.
Cleaning
CAUTION
The effects of certain chemical and their
vapors can have harmful results on certain plastics. Aerosol sprays, tuner
cleaners, and other chemicals should be
avoided.
lint-free cloth or tissue should be used to remove the
solution and dry the radio. Make sure that no water
remainsentrappednearthe connectors, cracks, or crevices.
Circuit Boards and Components
Isopropyl alcohol may be applied with a stiff, nonmetallic, short-bristled brush to dislodge embedded or
caked material located in hard-to-reach areas. The
brush stroke should direct the dislodged material out
and away from the inside of the radio.
CAUTION
Alcohol is a high-wetting liquid and can
carry contamination into unwanted
places if an excessive quantity is used.
Make sure that controls or tunable components are not
soaked with the liquid. Do not use high-pressure air to
hasten the drying process. This could cause the liquid
to puddle and collect in unwanted places. Upon completion of the cleaning process, use a soft, absorbent,
lint-free cloth to dry the area. Do not brush or apply
any isopropyl alcohol to the frame, front cover, or back
cover.
The following procedures describe the recommended
cleaning agents and the methods to be used when
cleaning the external and internal surfaces of the radio.
External surfaces include the front cover, housing and
assembly. These surfaces should be cleaned whenever
a visual inspection reveals the presence of smudges,
grease, and/or grime. Internal surfaces should be
cleaned onlywhenthe radio is disassembledforservicing or repair.
The only recommended agent for cleaning the external
radio surfaces is a 0.5% solution of mild dishwashing
detergent in water.Theonly factory recommended liquid for cleaning the printed circuits boards and their
components is isopropyl alcohol (70% by volume).
Plastic Surfaces
The detergent solution should be applied sparingly
with a stiff non-metallic, short-bristled brush to work
all loose dirt away from the radio. A soft, absorbent,
June, 20006880905Z99-O2-1
Safe Handling of CMOS Devices
Complementary metal-oxide semiconductor (CMOS)
devices are used in this family of radios. While the
attributes of CMOS are many, their characteristics
make them susceptible to damage by electrostatic or
high voltage charges. Damage can be latent, resulting
in failures occurring weeks or months later. Therefore,
special precautions must be taken to prevent device
damage during disassembly, troubleshooting, and
repair. Handling precautions are mandatory for CMOS
circuits and are especially important in low humidity
conditions.
Always use a fresh supply of isopropyl
alcohol and a clean container to prevent
contamination by dissolved material
from previous usage.
NOTE
Page 18
Basic MaintenanceGTX LTR/Privacy Plus 800 MHz Mobile Service Manual
Repair Procedures and Techniques
CAUTION
Do not attempt to disassemble the radio
without observing the following handling precautions.
Precautions
1.Eliminate static generators (plastics, stryofoam, etc. in the work area.
2.Remove nylon or double-knit polyester jackets, roll up long sleeves, and remove or tie
back loose hanging neckties.
3.Store and transport all static-sensitive devices
in ESD-protective containers.
4.If at all possible, handle CMOS devices by the
package and not by the leads. Prior to touching the unit, touch an electrical ground to
remove any static charge that you may have
accumulated. The package and substrate may
be electrically common. If so, the reaction of a
discharge to the case would cause the same
damage as touching the leads.
5.Disconnect all power from the unit before
ESD-sensitive components are removed or
inserted unless otherwise noted.
6.Use a static safeguarded workstation, which
can be accomplished through the use of an
anti-statickit(Motorolapartnumber
0180386A82). This kit includes a wrist strap,
two ground cords, a static-control table mat
and a static-control floor mat. For additional
information, refer to Service and Repair Note
SRN F1052, “Static Control Equipment for
Servicing ESD Sensitive Products”, available
form Motorola Literature Distribution 2290
Hammond Drive Schaumburg, IL 60173 (847)
576-2826.
When these items are not readily available,
observing the following techniques will minimize chance of damage.
9.When soldering, use a grounded soldering
iron.
Repair Procedures and Techniques
The radio support center is at the following address:
Motorola Radio Support Center
3651 South Central Avenue
Rockford, Ill, 61102
Telephone: (800) 227-6772
(815) 874-1400
Refer to the Disassembly and Reassembly section of
the manual forpertinentinformationprior to replacing
and substituting parts.
Parts Replacement
Special care should be taken to be as certain as possible
that a suspected component is actually the one at fault.
This special care will eliminate unnecessary unsoldering and removal of parts, which could damage or
weaken other components or the printed circuit board
itself.
When damaged parts are replaced, identical parts
should be used. If the identical replacement component is not locally available, check the parts list for the
proper Motorola part number and order the component from the nearest Motorola Communications Parts
office.
Rigid Circuit Boards
This family of radios uses bonded, multi-layer,printed
circuit boards. Since the inner layers are not accessible,
some special considerations are required when soldering andunsolderingcomponents.The printed-through
holes may interconnect multiple layers of the printed
circuit.
CAUTION
Therefore, care should be exercised to
avoid pulling the plated circuit out of
the hole.
• If a static-sensitive device is to be temporarily
set down, use a conductive surface for placement of the device.
• Make skin contact with a conductive work surface first and maintain this contact when the
device is set down or picked up.
7.Always wear a conductive strip when servic-
ing this equipment. The Motorola part number for a replacement wrist strap that connects
to the table mat is 42-80385A59.
8.When straightening CMOS pins, provide
ground straps for apparatus used.
2-26880905Z99-OJune, 2000
When soldering near the 16 or 18-pin connector, use
care to avoid accidentally getting solder in the connector.
CAUTION
Be careful not to form solder bridges
between the connector pins. Closely
examine your work for shorts due to
solder bridges.
Chip Components
Use either the RLN4062 Hot-Air Repair Station or the
Motorola 0180381B45 Repair Station for chip compo-
Page 19
GTX LTR/Privacy Plus 800 MHz Mobile Service ManualBasicMaintenance
Repair Procedures and Techniques
nent replacement. When using the 0180381B45 Repair
Station, select the TJ-65 mini-thermojet hand piece. On
either unit, adjust the temperature control to 700˚ F
(370˚ C), and adjust the airflow to a minimum setting.
Airflow can vary due to component density.
Chip Component Removal
To remove a chip component, select a hot-air hand
piece and positionthenozzleof the hand piece approximately 1/8” above the component to be removed.
Begin applying the hot air. Once the solder reflows,
remove the component using a pair of tweezers. Using
solder wick and a soldering iron or a power desoldering station, remove the excess solder from the pads.
Chip Component Replacement
To replace a chip component using a soldering iron,
select the appropriate micro-tipped soldering iron and
apply fresh solder to one of the solder pads. Using a
pair of tweezers, position the new chip component in
place while heating the fresh solder.Once solder wicks
onto thenewcomponent, remove the heatfromthe solder. Heat the remaining pad with the soldering iron
and apply solder until it wicks to the component. If
necessary, touch up the first side. All solder joints
should be smooth and shiny.
To replace a chip component using hot air, select the
hot-air hand piece and reflow the solder on the solder
pads to smooth it. Apply a drop of solder paste flux to
each pad. Using a pair of tweezers, position the new
component in place. Position the hot-air hand piece
approximately 1/8” above the component and begin
applying heat. Once the solder wicks to the component, remove the heat and inspect the repair. All joints
should be smooth and shiny.
Over-Molded Pad-Array Carrier (OMPAC)
ASFIC U201 is an OMPAC. It must be kept in a sealed
bag with dessicant in the bag (in a “dry box” as supplied by the Motorola Parts Department prior to use. If
the OMPAC is ambient for an unknown amount of
time or for more than 96 hours, then it must be baked
for at least eight hours at 260˚ F (185˚ C).
If neighboring OMPAC components are heated above
365˚ F (185˚ C), they will suffer die-bond delamination
and possible “popcorn” failure.
During all repair procedures, heating neighboring
components can be minimized by:
• Using upper heat only. using the correct size
heat-focus head, approximatelythesamesizeas
the carrier being replaced.
• Keeping the heat-focus head approximately 1/
8” (0.3cm) above the printed circuit board when
removing or replacing the device.
OMPAC Removal
To remove the OMPAC, select the R-1070A Air-Flow
Station and the appropriate heat- focus head (approximately the same size as the OMPAC. Attach the heatfocus head to the chimney heater. Adjust the temperature control to approximately 415˚ F (215˚ C) 445˚ F
(230˚ C) maximum. Adjust the airflow slightly above
the minimum setting. Apply the solder paste flux
around the edge of the OMPAC. Place the circuit board
in the R-1070A's circuit board holder, and position the
OMPAC under the heat-focus head.Lowerthe vacuum
tip and attach it to the OMPAC by turning on the vacuum pump. Lower the heat-focus head until it is
approximately 1/8” (0.3cm) above the carrier. Turn on
the heaterandwaituntil the OMPAC liftsoffthe circuit
board. Once the part is off, grab it with a pair of tweezers andturnoff the vacuumpump.Remove the circuit
board from the R-1070A's circuit board holder.
OMPAC Replacement
To replace the OMPAC, the solder pads on the board
must first be cleaned of all solder to ensure alignment
of the new chip carrier. Prepare the sight by using solder wick and asolderingiron to removeallsolderfrom
the solder pads on the circuit board. If a power desoldering toolisavailable, it canbeused instead of thesolder wick. Clean the solder pads with alcohol and a
small brush. Dry and inspect. Ensure that all solder is
removed.
Once the preparation is complete, place the circuit
board back in the R-1070A's circuit board holder. Add
solder paste flux in the trench of the flux block and
spread it using a one-inch putty knife. Flux the
OMPAC by placing it in the trench of the flux block.
Once the flux is applied, place the OMPAC on the circuit board, making certain that it is oriented correctly
on the board. Position the heat-focus head over the
OMPAC and lower it to approximately 1/8” (0.3cm)
over the carrier. Using the same heat and airflow setting used to remove the OMPAC, turn on the heater
and wait for the carrier to reflow (heating and reflow
should take longer than 60 seconds).
Once the carrier reflows, raise the heat-focus head and
wait approximately one minute for the part to cool.
Remove the circuit board and inspect the repair. No
cleaning should be necessary.
Shields
Removing and replacing the shields will be done with
the R-1070A, using the same heat and airflow profile
used to remove and replace OMPAC components.
Shield Removal
Place the circuit board in the R-1070A's holder. Select
the proper heat focus head and attach it to the heater

chimney. Add solder paste flux around the base of the
shield. Position the shield under the heat-focus head.
Lower the vacuum tip and attach it to the shield by
turning on the vacuum pump. Lower the focus head
until it is approximately 1/8”(0.3cm) above the shield.
Turn on the heater and wait until the shield lifts off the
circuit board. Once the shield is off, turn off the heat,
grab the part with a pair of tweezers, and turn off the
vacuum pump. Remove the circuit board from the R1070A's circuit board holder.
Shield Replacement
To replace the shield, add solder to the shield if necessary, using a micro-tipped soldering iron. Next, rubthe
soldering iron tip along the edge of the shield to
smooth out any excess solder. Use solder wick and a
soldering iron to remove excess solder from the solder
pads on the circuit board. Place the circuit board back
in the R-1070A's circuit board holder. Place the shield
on the circuit board using a pair of tweezers. Position
the heat-focus head over the shield and lower it to
approximately 1/8” above the s hield. Turn on the
heater and wait for the solder to reflow.
Once complete, turn off the heat, raise the heatfocus
head, and wait approximately one minute for the part
to cool. Remove the circuit board and inspect the
repair. No cleaning should be necessary.
Replacement of Transistor Q6505
This section provides a replacement procedure for
Q6505, the RF power output transistor in the 35-Watt
power amplifier.
To replace Q6505, proceed as follows:
• Thermalcompound,MotorolaPartNo.
1180382B13.
• Transistor assembley tool 0293.
1.Remove main board from radio chassis fol-
lowing procedure provided in Section 6 of this
servicemanual,MotorolaPublication
6880905Z99.
2.After main board is removed from radio chas-
sis, clean off thermal paste from all surfaces
that have thermal paste on them using low
lint wipers.
Removing Faulty Transistor
1.Before removing faulty transistor, observe
carefully how flange capacitors C6567 and
C6568 are mounted. This will help you later in
mounting new capacitors.
2.Set hot air gun for medium temperature and
low air speed. This will ensure that other components in vicinity of Q6505 will not get dislodged and moved accidently.
3.Train hot air gun on flanges of transistor. After
a few moments, the solder holding flanges
will reflow enabling transistor and flange
capacitors C6567 and C6568 to be lifted off
main board together.
Preparing Main Board for New Transistor
1.Using solder wick, isopropyl alcohol, and stiff
bristle brush, remove excess solder and clean
pads on main board where transistor was soldered.
Before proceeding, ensure that the following tools and
materials are on hand:
• Alcohol (isopropyl).
• High temperature solder, SN96AG04 composition. Motorola Part No. 1180433L04.
• Hot air gun (600 degrees maximum temperature).
• Low lint wipers.
• Soldering station including a soldering iron
with chisel-style tip which is approximately 1/
8-inch in size.
• Solder flux.
• Solder wick.
• Stiff brush, natural bristles approximately 1-cm
high and 1-cm wide.
2-46880905Z99-OJune, 2000
2.Place main board, with its heavy side up, on
transistor assembly tool. Heavy side is side
with PA module and antenna connector.Make
certain that all guide pins on transistor assembly tool are engaged into their corresponding
holes in main board.
3.Identify the six pads on main board corresponding to the six flanges on transistor. The
four corner pads are ground; the middle pad
towards antenna connector is the transistor
collector; and the opposite middle pad is the
transistor emitter.
NOTE
In next step, be certain to tin transistor
pads and fill via holes with high temperature solder, composition SN96PB04.
4.Using solder iron, carefully tin each of the six
pads so that they are covered with a thin coat
of solder and all via holes are filled.

GTX LTR/Privacy Plus 800 MHz Mobile Service ManualBasicMaintenance
Repair Procedures and Techniques
Positioning New Transistor
1.Place a small spot of flux on each of the six
main-board pads to which the flanges of transistor are to be soldered.
2.Insert the narrow-diameter side of a spacer,
Motorola Part Number 4380545K01, into each
of the two transistor mounting holes in main
board.
3.Ensure that new transistor is correct replacement type by verifying that M25C17 is printed
on transistor face.
NOTE
Collector flange of transistor is the one
with its corner cut off.
4.Position new transistor onto transceiver board
withcollectorflangeorientedtowards
antenna connector. Ensure that transistor is
sitting snug on main board with all six flanges
flat on their corresponding main-board pads.
5.Lower arm of Distaco clamp on transistor
assembly tool. Then lock clamp with its lever
to clamp transistor in place on main board.
Soldering Transistor
1.Place a small spot of flux on each of the six
transistor flanges.
2.Solder each transistor flange to transceiver
board as follows:
2A. Set soldering iron temperature to approxi-
mately 400 degrees Centigrade.
2B.Melt a small mound of solder onto flat face
of soldering iron.
CAUTION
In next step, to avoid damage to transistor and capacitors, ensure that each soldering operation takes no more than
three to four seconds to accomplish.
3.Press face of soldering iron firmly to flange for
no more than three to four seconds.
Installing Flange Capacitors C6567 and C6568.
NOTE
Capacitors C6567 and C6568 get
mounted flat on transistor collector and
ground flangeswithnon-solderable edge
flush against transistor body. Each capacitor is attached by soldering its outside
solderable edge to one of the transistor
ground flanges and its inside solderable
edge to transistor collector flange. There
must be a gap of approximately 2 millimeters between the two capacitors (i.e.,
room to insert a chisel style solder iron
tip) to ensure that good solder joints can
be made between capacitor leads and
collector flange of transistor.
1.Ensure that both capacitors C6567 and C6568
are correct replacement type by verifying that
Motorola Part Number is 2113742B25, value is
18pF, and marking is Gl.
CAUTION
In next two steps, to avoid damage to
transistor and capacitors, ensure that
soldering operations take no more than
three to four seconds to accomplish.
2.Solder outside solderable edge of each capacitor to one transistor ground flange, being certain that each capacitor is flat on transistor
flange with non-solderable edge flush against
transistor body.
3.Place a small drop of flux on transistor collector flange between capacitors. Place chisel
style solder iron tip between capacitors and
onto collector flange of transistor. Feed in
some high temperature solder (SN96PB04) so
that inside solderable edges of both capacitors
are soldered securely to collector flange of
transistor.
4.Examine soldered capacitors. Ensure that they
are reasonably flush against transistor body
and are not shorting transistor collector flange
to transistor heat sink.
5.Examine surrounding components to ensure
that none of them have been damaged or displaced.
Reassembly of Radio
4.Inspect transistor flange carefully to ensure it
is soldered securely, and that it is not shorted
to any of the other flanges or to the transistor
heat sink.

Receiver Detailed Functional Description
Receiver Detailed Functional
Description
The receiver is composed of four sections: receiver
front end, receiver IF, receiver back end and the Audio
Signal Filter IC (ASFIC) that is part of the controller
section.
The RF signal from the antenna switch in the PA section enters the first bandpass filter (FL5203). The first
bandpass filter has three poles, a 860-MHz center frequency, a 20-MHz wide passbandanda40-dB rejection
for image frequencies (761 to 780MHz).
After the firstbandpassfilter, the signal passes toapair
of hot-carrier limiting diodes (D5303) placedinfrontof
RF preamplifier Q5301. The hot-carrier diodes limit
strongsignalstoprevent them fromoverdriving theRF
preamplifier and damaging it.
The RX front end is a Low Noise Amplifier (LNA) that
consists of Q5301. Its main purpuse is to set the noise
figure of the receiver. The front end amplifier as well as
the IF amplifiers are shut off during transmit by K9.1
line via switch Q5230, to provide isolation in talkaround mode.
After the LNA, the signal enters a second bandpass filter (FL5204), which is identical to FL5203. The bandpass filters are fixed tuned from 850 to 870 MHz.
After the second bandpass filter, mixer U5211 downconverts the signal to the IF frequency.
mixer IF port to 50 Ohm out of the IF frequency band.
The diplexer consists of R5401, C5404, L5402.
The IF signal is fed to first crystal filter Y5201 through
matching network L5401, C5200.
Crystal filter Y5201 has two poles. The crystal filter is
followed by matching elements, that match the filter
output impedance to the input impedance of IF amplifier Q5201.
Following the IF amplifier is a matching network that
matches theIFamplifier output impedancetothe input
impedance of a second 45.1-MHz crystal filter (Y5202).
The second crystal filter is followed by matching elements that match the output of the second crystal filter
to the input of the receiver back end circuits. After the
matching circuit, the signal passes a pair of hot-carrier
limiting diodes (D5201) placed in front of the back end
circuit.
The receiver back end consists of BBR IC (U5201) that
contains the following functions:
• Preamplifier & mixer to convert the signal to a
second IF frequency of 455 kHz.
• Second LO circuit
• Second IF amplifiers
• FM Demodulator

In additiontoBBR IC, the backendcontains the following components:
The mixer is a passive double-balance mixer that gets a
local oscillator signal in the range of 806 to 825 MHz
from the synthesizer and works on 4-dBm power. The

Transmitter Detailed Functional Description
The IF signal routed to BBR IC is amplified, converted
to 455 kHz, filtered, limited and demodulated.
Demodulated audio comes out of BBR IC at U5201-28
and is fed to the ASFIC, which is part of the radio controller section.
In addition to the audio output signal, the receiver section provides an RSSI (Receiver Signal StrengthIndicator) at U5201-11. The RSSI signal is fed to the ASFIC
and accessory connector.
ADAPT signal into U5201-22 controls the BBR IC. The
normally low (0 VDC) ADAPT signal is high (5 VDC)
during change of radio channels, transition from transmit to receive or at turn-on. The ADAPT signal is used
to control precharge of capacitor C5231 at
DEMOD_OUT. This is done in order to eliminate the
transient during frequency change or when the radio
goes from transmit to receive mode.
Transmitter Detailed Functional
Description
15 Watt PA
The 15-W PA is a three-stage radio frequency (RF)
power amplifier used to amplify the output from the
TX injection lineup to the radio transmit level. It consists of driver stage Q6501 followed by a two-stage
power module U6501.
The two stages of the power module operate from the
A+ supply voltage. The module is switched on/off by
the K9.1 line through switch U6502 (which connects
the A+lineto pin 2 ofU6501when transmit isenabled).
The RF drive, which is routed into transistor Q6501, is
controlled from Q6506 via the PA control line. The rising control voltage on the PA control line causes a rising collector voltage on Q6501. This causes more
power out of the stage. Conversely, a decreasing control line voltage decreases the power delivered into the
next stage. By controlling the drive power to U6501
and the following stages in the poweramplifierlineup,
ALC loop is able to regulate the output power of the
transmitter.
The antenna switch is switched synchronously with
the keyed 9.1 voltage. In the transmit mode, this 9.1
voltage is high—turning on diodes CR6502, CR6503
and CR6504. When CR6502 is turned on, it forms a low
impedance to the RF transmit path and allows the signal to pass through. Diodes CR6503 and CR6504 short
the ends of quarter wavelength lines to ground, presenting a high impedance towards the receiver. In this
way no power is delivered into the receiver, the transmit path remains undisturbed, and the receiver is protected during transmission.
In the receive mode, all these diodes are off. The off
capacitance of CR6502 istunedbyL6508 to form a high
impedance looking into the transmitter. Therefore,
energy coming in the receive mode is channeled to the
RX port.
Harmonics ofthetransmitter are attenuatedbythe harmonic filter. The harmonic filter is formed by inductors
L6513 and L6518 as well as capacitors C6540-C6542,
C6551-C6553. This network forms a low-pass filter to
attenuate harmonic energy of the transmitter to specifications level.
A forward-power detector follows the harmonic filter.
This forward-power detector is a microstrip printed
circuit, which couples a small amount of the forward
energy and to diode CR6506 where it is rectified. This
rectified signal (VFORWARD) forms the forward voltage which the power control circuit holds constant.
Holding this voltageconstant(whichis proportional to
the RF rectified energy appearing across the diode)
ensures the forward-power out of the radio is held to a
constant value.
Thermistor R6519 senses temperature in the area of the
power module. This signal is fed back into the power
control circuit to protect the power amplifier against
over-temperature conditions.
Resistor R6520, in series with the A+ line supply, feeds
voltage to the powermodule.Thevoltage across R6520
is monitored and the difference voltage is channeled to
the power control circuit. The power control circuit
monitors the voltage drop across the resistor which is
determined by the magnitude of the drain current in
U6501. It uses this as a limiting mechanism whereby
the power control circuit limits the magnitude of current that can be drawn by U6501. This protects the
device from over dissipation.
Bias voltage reverse polarityprotectionforthe transmitter is providedbydiodeCR6508. Under reverse polarity
conditions to theradio,thisdiodeconducts and protects
the radio from damage. This diode also provides transient over-voltage protection by breaking down when
the supply voltage to the radio exceeds 24 V.
35 Watt PA
The 35-Watt PA is a four stage radio frequency (RF)
power amplifier used toamplifytheoutputfromthe TX
injection lineup to the radio transmit level. It consists of
driver stageQ6501,two-stage power module U6501and
RF final device transistor Q6505.
Q6505 and U6501 operate from the A+ supply voltage.
U6501 is switched on/off by the K9.1 line through
switch U6502 (which connects the A+ line to pin 2 of
U6501 whentransmitis enabled). The RF drive,whichis
routed into transistor Q6501, is controlled from Q6506
via the PAcontrolline. The rising control voltage on the
PA control line causes a rising collector voltage on
Q6501. This causes more power out of the stage. Conversely, a decreasing control line voltage decreases the

power delivered into the next stage. By controlling the
drive power to U6501 and the following stages in the
power amplifier lineup, ALC loop is able to regulate the
output power of the transmitter .
The antenna switch is switched synchronously with the
keyed 9.1 voltage. In the transmit mode, this 9.1 voltage
is high—turning on diodes CR6502, CR6503 and CR1.
When CR6502 is turned on, it forms a low impedance to
the RF transmit path and allows the signal to pass to the
antenna via harmonic filter hybrid H6502. Diode CR1in
H6502 forms a low impedance that is transformed up to
an open circuit through a quarter wavelength transmission line. This prevents transmitter power from being
delivered into the receiver. Diode CR6503 is also turned
on in transmit mode further isolating the receiver from
transmitter energy. The transmitter power from the
antenna switch passes to the antenna via harmonicfilter
hybrid module H6502. H6502 incorporates a low pass
filter, which attenuates harmonic energy out of the
transmitter to specifications level.
In receivemode, diodes CR6502,CR6403and CR1 areall
off. The off capacitance of CR6502 is tuned by L6512 to
form a high impedance network looking into the transmitter. Therefore, received signal energy from the
antenna is channeled to the input of the receiver with
minimal loss maximizing sensitivity.
A forwardpower detector utilizing adir ectionalcoupler
is included in the harmonic filter hybrid. This forwardpower detector is a microstrip printed circuit, which
couples a small amount of the forward energy to diode
CR2 where it is rectified. This rectified signal (VFORWARD) forms the forward voltage which the power
control circuit holds constant. Holding this voltage constant (which is proportional to the RF rectified energy
appearing across the diode) ensures the forward-power
out of the radio is held to a constant value.
Thermistor R6519 senses temperature in a location near
Q6505. This signal is fed back into the power controlcircuit to protect Q6505 against over-temperature conditions.
Resistor R6520, in series with the A+ line supply , feeds
voltage to Q6505.Thevoltageacross R6520 is monitored
and the difference voltage is channeled to the power
control circuit. The power control circuit monitors the
voltage drop across the resistor ,which is determined by
the magnitude of the collector current in Q6505. It uses
this as alimitingmechanismwhereby the power control
circuitlimitsthe magnitude ofcurrentthat can bedrawn
by Q6505. This protects the device from over dissipation.
Bias voltage reverse polarityprotectionforthe transmitter is providedbydiodeCR6508. Under reverse polarity
conditions to theradio,thisdiodeconducts and protects
the radio from damage. This diode also provides transient over-voltage protection by breaking down when
the supply voltage to the radio exceeds 24 VDC.
Power Control Circuitry
The power control circuitry consists of three mechanisms:
Power Set
The control loop compares the power output level to
the pre-set value. The VFORWARD voltage from the
forward power detector is amplified by U701 pins 5 -7,
and compared to D/A U702-2 & 4. Should a difference
be detected, an error current is generated into the loop
integrator U702-8 & 9, until equilibrium is obtained.
The use of 2 D/A outputs for power set enables fine
tuning wherepin2is coarse tune through resistor R703
and pin 4 is fine tune through resistor R706.
Current Limit
Current to thepowermoduleU6501(or RF final device
Q6505) is monitored using R6520 and compared to a
pre-set limit D/A U702-11 and U701-(1-3). When the
limit is exceeded, an errorcurrentis generated through
diode CR721 to the loop integrator, which lessens the
PA_CNTRL line and reduces the power amplifier output.
Thermal Protection
When the power m odule U6501 (or RF final device
Q6505) overheats, the resistance of thermistor R6519
drops. Because of the voltage divider formed by R721,
R725, and R6519, this resistance drop is sensed and
amplified through U701-(12-14). This causes a current
error through diode CR721 to flow into the loop integrator and reduce transmitted output power.
When controller U101-45, detects a voltage proportional to 85 degrees Centigrade through R726-727 it
reduces transmit power by 50 percent during subsequent Tx key-ups.
Synthesizer Detailed Functional
Description
The complete synthesizer subsystem consists of reference oscillator U5700, Fractional-N Synthesizer IC
U5702, two on-board voltage controlled oscillators,
buffer stage U5701, and two discrete buffer amplifiers
Q5707, and Q5705.
Reference oscillator U5700 contains a temperature
compensated crystal which operates at a frequency of
16.8 MHz. The output of the oscillator U5700-10 is
applied to U5702-14 via R5715 and C5733.
There are two varactor tuned VCOs. The oscillator frequency is controlled by the voltage applied via L5701
and L5702. This control voltage ranges from 2.5 to 10.5
VDC. A lower control voltage produces a lower fre-

quency and a higher control voltage produces a higher
frequency respectively.
The RX/TX VCO (806 - 825 MHz band) provides the
first LO injection frequency which is 45.1 MHz below
the carrier frequency and TX injection for conventional
mode. The RX/TX VCO is selected by pulling U5702-1
low.
The Talk-Around (TA) VCO (851 - 870 MHz band) provides the transmit frequency in TA mode. The TA VCO
is selected by pulling U5702-1 high.
The buffer stage U5701 and feedback amplifier Q5703
provide the necessary gain and isolation for the synthesizer loop.
Fractional-N Synthesizer IC U5702 consists of:
• Prescaler,
• Programmable loop divider,
• Control divider logic,
• Phase detector,
• Charge pump,
• A/D Converter for low frequency digital modulation,
• Balance attenuator to balance the high and low
frequency analog modulation,
• 13-V positive voltage multiplier,
• Serial interface for control,
• Super filter for the regulated 9.3 V DC
C5712 is the super filter capacitor. The output voltage
of the super filter U5702-18, drops from 9.3 VDC to
about 8.5 VDC. This filtered 8.5 VDC supplies voltage
for theVCOs,the VCO switching unitsU5704& U5705,
feedback amplifier Q5703, and synthesizer charge
pump resistor network R5707- R5709.
The synthesizer supply voltage is provided by the 5
VDC regulator U5703. The 2.1 MHz reference signal at
U5702-11 is generated by dividing down the signal of
reference oscillator U5700 after it is applied to U5702-
14.
In order to generate a high voltage that supplies the
charge pump output stage at VCP (U5702-32), 13 V DC
is generated at pin 3 of CR5700 by the positive voltage
multiplier circuitry. This voltage multiplier is a diode
capacitor network drivenbytwo 1.05 MHz, 180-degree
out-of-phase signals from U5702-9 &10.
enabling of these lines allows the microprocessor to
program the synthesizer.
The output of the VCO is fed to the buffer input port of
U5701-1. The output of the buffer U5701-5 is applied to
the input of the feedback amplifier Q5703 through an
attenuator network consisting of R5735, R5733 and
R5732. To close the synthesizer loop, the output of
Q5703 is connected to PREIN (U5702-20) of the synthesizer. The buffer output U5701-5 also provides the signal forreceiver LOinjectionand transmit injectionlineup. The charge pump current is present at U5702-31.
The loop filter (which consists of R5716, R5717, R5734,
C5750, C5744, C5745, C5736, C5746, C5747, C5794,
C5795, C5796, C5797, C5798, C5799) will then transform this current into a voltage that will, in turn, be
applied to Vcontrol of the VCOs and steer the output
frequency.
In order to modulate the PLL a two-point modulation
method is utilized. The audio signal is applied to both
the A/D converter (low frequency path) as well as the
balance attenuator (high frequency path) via U5702-8.
The A/D converter will convert the low-frequency,
analog modulating signal into a digital code that will
in turn be applied to the loop divider. This will cause
the carrier to deviate. The balance attenuator is used to
adjust the VCO deviation sensitivity to high frequency
modulating signals. The output of the balance attenuator is present at the MODOUT port U5702-28.
The transmit injection line-up consists of two amplifier
stages, Q5707 & Q5705, used to provide a constant output to drive the RF transmitter and provide isolation.
The Q5705 stage is actively biased through Q5701, and
Q5707 has passive biasing. The TX injection line-up is
on only during the transmit mode (K 9.1V line is at
9.1 V).
The first VCO is used for receive LO_INJ and TX_INJ
in the conventional 806-825 MHz transmit band. The
second VCOisusedfor TX_ INJ in the talk-around851870 MHz transmit band.
The VCOs get their control voltage through L5701 and
L5702. Q5704 and Q5706 are the oscillation transistors.
C5793, C5792 and C5785, C5784 are the oscillator feedback capacitors. U5706 and U5707 are micro strip resonators. CR5701 and CR5702 are the varactors. C5790
and C5782 determine the VCO KV. C5703 and C5704
determine the VCO operation frequency. C5791 and
C5783 are the coupling capacitors between the tank
and the oscillation transistor.
The serial interface (SPI_DATA) is connected to the
microprocessor via the data line (U5702-5), clock line
(U5702-6), and chip enable line (U5702-5). Proper

The two VCOs are coupled to buffer amplifier Q5702
through C5789 and C5786. The buffer amplifier output
signal is fed to U5701-pin 1 through C5770 & R5736.

• Voltage Regulation
The digital section consists of a microprocessor, memory ICs, glue logic circuitry, signal MUX ICs, On/Off
circuit, and general purpose Input/Output circuitry.
The controller is based on the Motorola 68HC11K1
microprocessor-U101, 8-Kbyte SRAM-U103, 32 KbyteFlash memory-U102, and 8 Kbyte EEPROM -U104.
NOTE
From this point on, the 68HC11K1microprocessor will be referred to as K1µPor
µP.
References to a Control Head will be to
type P+ (Display radio).
Voltage Regulators
Voltage regulation for the controller is provided by 3
separate devices: +5 VDC U631, +9.3 VDC U601, and
UNSW 5V (R621 and VR621). An additional regulator
is located in the RF section.
5 VDC regulation for the digital circuitry is provided
by U631. Input and output capacitors C631, C632 and
C633-635 are used to reduce high-frequency noise and
provide additional charge during short battery transients. This regulator provides a reset output U631-5
that drops to 0 VDC when the regulator output goes
out of regulation. This is used to reset the controller in
order to prevent improper operation. Diode D631 prevents discharge of C632 by negative spikes on the 9.3
voltage.
Regulator U601 is used to generate the 9.3 VDC
required by some audio circuits, the RF circuitry and
power control circuitry. Input and output capacitors
C601-603 and C604-605 are used to reduce high-frequency noise. R602-603 set the regulator output voltage. If the voltage atU601-1isgreater than 1.3 VDC the
regulator output decreases and if the voltage is less
than 1.3 VDC, the regulator output increases. This regulator output is electronically disabled by a 0 VDC signal on U601-2. Q601 and associated circuitry R601,
R604-605 disable the regulator when the radio is
turned off.
UNSW_+5V_CL is only used by a few circuits, which
draw low current and require 5 VDC while the radio is
off.
UNSW_+5V_CL isusedto save the internalU103RAM
data. C622 allows the battery voltage to be disconnected for a couple of minutes without losing RAM
parameters. Diode D621 prevents radio circuitry from
discharging this capacitor.
The SW_+B voltage is monitored by the µP through
voltage divider R641-642. Diode VR641 limits the
divided voltage to 5.1 VDC in order to protect the µP.
Diode CR6508 located in the PA section acts as protection against transients and reverse polarity of the supply voltage.
Electronic On/Off
The radio has circuitry which allows radio software
and/or external triggers to turn the radio on or off
without direct user action. This allows, for example,
automatic turn-on when ignition is sensed and off
when ignition is off.
Q611is used to provideSW_B+to the various radio circuits. Q611 acts as an electronic on/off switch controlled by Q612 (the switch is on while Q612 is on).
When the radio is turned on, the voltage at the base of
Q612 is high (about 0.6 V). Q612 switches on (saturation) and pulls down the voltage at Q611-base. This
turns on Q611 and supplies SW_B+ to the radio.Theon
resistance ofQ611 is very low (less than 1OHM),sothe
voltage level at SWB+ is essentially the same as A+.
The electronic on/off circuitry can be enabled by the
microprocessor (through ASFIC, B+ _CONTROL), the
mechanical On/Off button on the control head
(ON_OFF_CONTROL), or the ignition sense circuitry
(IGNITION_CONTROL). If one of the three paths
causes a low at the collector of Q612, the electronic ON
process is engaged.
Mechanical On/Off
This referstothetypical on/off button which is located
on the control head and turns the radio on and off.
While the on/off button is turned on, line ON_OFF_
CONTROL goes high during the short pulsegenerated
by the ON_OFF “one-shot” circuitry in the control
head. Thisswitchestheradio on. The microprocessoris
alerted through line ANALOG_ 3 which is pulled to
low by Q925 (in Control Head Model P+) while the
on/offbuttonis turned on. Ifthesoftware detects a low
state, it assertsB+_CONTROLviaASFIC-GCB2,which
keeps Q612 and Q611 on, and in turn the radio is
switched on.
When the on/off button is turned off, the software
detects the line ANALOG_3 changing to low and
switches the radio off by setting B+_CONTROL to low.

Ignition
Ignition sense is used to prevent the radio from draining the vehicle’s battery while the engine is not running.
When the IGNITION input goes above 1.3VDC, Q450,
Q612 and Q611 turn on, supplying SW_B+ to the radio
and enabling U601 and U631 to supply the regulated
voltage (+5 VDC and 9.3 VDC) to all the circuitry. The
µP starts to run the software, reads the line
IGNITION_SENSE, determines from the level that the
IGNITION input is active and sets the B+_CONTROL
(via the ASFIC-GCB2) to high and latches SW_B+ on.
When the IGNITION line drops below 1.3 VDC, Q450
switches off and R441 pulls line IGNITION_SENSE
high. Thesoftware isalerted by line
IGNITION_SENSE toswitchoff the radio bysettingB+
CONTROL line to low. Whenever the IGNITION line
goes above 1.3 VDC, the above process will be
repeated—depending iftheradiowaspreviously on or
off.
The ignition sense capability can be disabled by turning switch S401-2&4on.This supplies FLT_A+ via
R452 to the ignition sense pin continuously. The radio
is shipped with ignition sense disabled.
Hook
TheHOOKlineisusedtoinformtheµPwhenthe
Microphone´s hang-up switch is engaged. Depending
on the radio programming the µP turns the audio PA
on or off. The signal is routed from J101-3 and J400-14
through transistor Q101totheK1µPU101-23.The voltage range of HOOK in normal operating mode is 0-5
VDC.
Microprocessor Clock Synthesizer
The clock source for the controller ’s microprocessor
system isgeneratedby the ASFIC (U201).Uponpowerup the synthesizer (U5701) generates a 2.1 MHz waveform thatisrouted from theRFsection (via C202) tothe
ASFIC (on U201 XTAL_IN). For the main board controller, the ASFIC uses 2.1 MHz as a reference input
clock signal for its internal synthesizer. The ASFIC, in
addition to audio circuitry, has a programmable synthesizer which can generate a synthesized signal ranging from1200Hzto 32.769 MHz with steps of 1200 Hz.
While the radio is turned on, the ASFIC generates a
default 3.6864 MHz CMOS square wave µP CLK (on
U201-UPCLK) which is routed to the µP (U101EXTAL). After the µP starts operation, it reprograms
the ASFIC synthesizer clock to a higher µP CLK frequency (usually 7.3728 or 14.7456 MHz) and continues
operation.
The ASFIC synthesizer clock is controlled by the software, and may slightly be changed while harmonics of
this clock source interfere with the specific radio
receive frequency.
The ASFIC synthesizer loop components (C228, C229
and R222) set the switching time and jitter of the clock
output. If the synthesizer cannot generate the required
clock frequency it will switch back to its default
3.6864 MHz frequency.
Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI)
The µP communicates with the other programmable
ICs through its SPI port. This port consists of SPI
TRANSMIT DATA U101-1, SPI RECEIVE DATA U10180, SPI CLK U101-2 and chip select lines going to the
various programmable ICs. This BUS is a synchronous
bus (the timing clock signal CLK is sent with SPI
TRANSMIT DATA or SPI RECEIVE DATA).
In the controller section, there are three ICs on the SPI
BUS: ASFIC (U201-E3), EEPROM (U104-1) and D/A
(U731-6). In the RF sections, there are 2 ICs on the SPI
BUS: Pendulum (Reference Oscillator U5702-24) and
Synthesizer (U5701-7). The SPI TRANSMIT DATA and
CLK lines going to the RF section arefiltered with L131
and L132 to minimize noise. The chip select lines for
the ICs are decoded by the address decoder U105.
The SPI BUS is also used for the control head. U106
buffers theSPITRANSMITDATAand CLK lines to the
control head. U106 serves also to switch off the CLK
signal for the LCD display while it is not selected via
LCD_CE signal.
When the µP needs to program any of these ICs, it
drops down the chip select line of the specific IC to a
logic 0 and then sends the proper data and clock signals. The data sent to the various ICs are different. For
example the ASFIC receives 21 bytes (168 bits) while
the DAC needs3bytes (24 bits). After the datahasbeen
sent the chip select line is returned to a logic 1.
SBEP Serial Interface
The SBEP serial interface line allows the radio to communicate with the Dealer Programming Software
(DPS). This interface connects to the Microphone connector (J902) via Control Head connector (J101) and
comprises BUS+ (J101-15). The line is bi-directional,
meaning that either the radio or the DPS can drive the
line.
The connection from the Control Head is made
through the BUS+ line, via L421 (SCI_RSS line) and
diode CR151 to the U101-78-RxD and U101-79-TxD
ports.
Microprocessor (Open Controller)
For this radio, the K1µP is configured to operate in the
expanded or bootstrap modes. In expanded mode the
K1µP uses external memory ICs, whereas in bootstrap
June, 20006880905Z99-O8-7
Page 48
Theory of OperationGTX LTR/Privacy Plus 800 MHz Mobile Service Manual
Controller Detailed Functional Description
mode it uses only its internal memory.In normal radio
operation, the K1µP is operating in the expanded
mode.
In the radio expanded mode, the K1µP (U101) has
access to threeexternal memory ICs: U102 (Flash memory), U103 (SRAM), U104 (EEPROM). Also, within the
K1µP thereare 768 bytes ofinternalRAM and 640 bytes
of internal EEPROM, as well as glue logic circuitry to
select external memory ICs.
The external EEPROM (U104) as well as the K1µP’s
own internal EEPROM contain the radio information
which is customer specific, referred to as the codeplug.
This information consistsofitems such as: 1) frequency
operating band, 2) channel frequencies, and 3) general
tuning information. General tuning information and
other more frequently accessed items are stored in the
internal EEPROM (within the 68HC11K1), while the
remaining data is stored in the external EEPROM. (See
the particular IC subsection for more details.)
The external SRAM (U103) as well as the K1µP’s own
internal RAM are used for temporary calculations
required by the software during normal radio operation. All of the data stored in both of these locations is
lost when the radio is powered off. (See the particular
IC subsection for more details.)
The Flashmemorycontains the actual Radio Operating
Software. This software is common to all radios for the
same model type. For example, Privacy Plus models
have a different version of software in Flash memory
than an LTR model. (See the particular IC subsection
for more details.)
The MODA LIR (U101-77) and MODB VSTPY
(U101-76) inputs to the K1µP must be at a logic 1 level
for properoperation.After the K1µP starts execution,it
will periodically pulse these lines to determine the
desired operating mode. While the Central Processing
Unit (CPU) is running a new instruction, MODA LIR
(as an open-drain CMOS output) drops low.
However, since it is an open-drain output, the signal
waveform risehasan exponential shape, likeanRC circuit.
The µP has eight analog-to-digital converter ports
(A/D): PE0 to PE7. These lines may measure voltage
levels in the range of 0 to 5 VDC and convert that level
to a number ranging from 0 to 255 which can be read
by the software to take appropriate action.
For example, U101-46 is the battery voltage detect line.
R641 and R642 form a resistor divider on SW_B+. With
47.5K and16.2K and a voltage rangeof11 V to 17V,the
A/D port would see 2.74 Vto4.24Vwhichwould then
be convertedtoa digital value in therangeof140 to 217
respectively.
U101-51 is the high reference voltage for the A/Dports
on the K1µP. ResistorR106and capacitor C106 filter the
+5 VDC reference. If this voltage is lower than +5 VDC
the A/D readings will be incorrect. Likewise U101-50
is the low reference for the A/D ports. This line is normally tied to ground. If this line is not connected to
ground, the A/D readings will be incorrect.
Capacitors C104, C105 serve to filter out any AC noise
which may ride on +5VDC at U101.
The K1µP has an address bus of 16 address lines (A0A15), a data bus of 8 data lines (D0-D7). and three control lines; CSPROG (U101-29) to select U102-30 (OTP
memory), CSGP2 (U101-28) to select U103-20 (SRAM)
and PG7_R_W for read and write. All other chips
(ASFIC/PENDULLUM/DAC/FRACN/LCD/LED/EEPROM) are
selected by 3 lines of the K1µP using chip select
decoder U105. When theK1µPisfunctioning normally,
the address and data lines should be within CMOS
logic levels.
The low-order address lines (A0-A7) and the data lines
(D0-D7) should change.
On the K1µP the lines XIRQ (U101-30), MODA LIR
(U101-77), MODB VSTPY (U101-76) and RESET (U101-
75) should be logic high during all normal K1µP operation. Whenever a data or an address line becomes
unloaded or shorted to an adjacent line, a common
symptom is that short negative pulses occur on the
RESET line, with a period of 20 msec. When two lines
are short-circuited, mid logic level (around 2.5 V) may
be observed, while these lines are opposite driven by
two different ICs.
One-Time Programmable (Flash) Memory
The 32-KByte Flash memory (U102) contains the
radio’s operating software. This memory is read-only.
The memory access signals (EN_CE, EN_OE and
EN_WE) are generated by the µP.
Capacitor C131 serves to filter out any AC noise which
may ride on +5V at U101, and C132 filters out any AC
noise on Vpp.
EEPROM (U104) containstheradio’soperating parameters such as operating frequency and signalling features,commonlyknownas the codeplug. It isalsoused
to store radio operating state parameters such as current mode and volume. U104 is a 8 Kbyte device. This
memory can be written to in excess of 100,000 times
and will retain the data when power is removed from
the radio. The memory access signals (SI, SO and SCK)
are generated by the K1µP and chip select (CS_) is generated by address decoder U105.

Additional EEPROM is contained in the K1µP (U101).
This EEPROM is used to store radio tuning and alignment data.Likethe external EEPROM thismemorycan
be programmed multiple timesandwillretainthe data
when power is removed from the radio.
NOTE
The external EEPROM plus the 640 bytes
of internal EEPROM in the 68HC11K1
comprise the complete codeplug.
Static Random Access Memory (SRAM)
The SRAM (U103) contains temporary radio calculations or parameters that can change very frequently,
and which are generated and stored by the software
during its normal operation. The information is lost
when the radio is turned off. The device allows an
unlimited number of write cycles. SRAM accesses are
indicated by the EN_CS signal U103-20 (which comes
from U101-28) going low. U103 is commonly referred
to as theexternalRAMas opposed to the internal RAM
which is the 768 bytes of RAM which is part of the
68HC11K1.BothRAMspacesservethepurpose. However, the internalRAMisused for the calculated values
which are accessed most often. Capacitor C133 serves
to filter out any AC noise which may ride on +5VDC at
U103.
Control Head
Control Head is available for user interface. The Control Head contains the internal speaker, the microphone connector, several buttons to operate the radio
and several indicator LEDs to inform the user about
the radio status. Additionally Control Head uses a 3
digit LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) for the channel
number.
When turned on, the On/Off switch turns the voltage
regulators on by pulling ON_OFF_CONTROL to high
and connects the base of Q925(P), Q825(K) to FLT_A+.
This transistor pulls the line ANALOG_3 to low to
inform the µP that the On/Off button is pressed. If the
radio is switched off, the µP will switch it on and vice
versa. All other buttons work the same way. If a button
is pressed, it will connect one of the 3 lines ANALOG_
1,2,3 toaresistive voltage divider connectedto+5VDC.
The voltages of the lines are A/D converted inside the
µP and specify the pressed button.
All thebacklight and indicator LEDsare driven by current sources and controlled by the µP via SERIAL
PERIPHERAL INTERFACE (SPI) interface. The LED
status is stored in shift register U941(P). Line LED CE
enables the serial write process via Q941(P), while line
LED CLCK BUF shifts the data of line SPI DATA BUF
into the shift register.
In addition Control Head contains the LCD H931, the
display driver U932 andatransistorQ953to switch the
display driver on and off. Q953 is controlled by the µP
via shift register U941, The display data of line SPI
DATA BUF is shifted into the display driver by clock
signal LCD CLCK BUF.
Controller Audio & Signaling
Circuits
General
Audio Signalling Filter IC (ASFIC)
The ASFIC (U201) used in the controller has four functions;
• RX/TX audio shaping, i.e. filtering, amplification, attenuation
• RX/TX signalling, PL/DPL/HST/LST
• Squelch detection
• Microprocessor clock signal generation (see
Microprocessor Clock Synthesizer Description
Block).
The ASFIC is programmable through the SPI BUS
(U201-E3/F1/F2), normally receiving 21 bytes. This
programming sets up various paths within the ASFIC
to route audio and/or signalling signals through the
appropriate filtering, gain and attenuator blocks. The
ASFIC also has 6 General Control Bits GCB0-5 which
are CMOS level outputs. They are used for AUDIO
_PA _ENABLE (GCB0) to switch the audio PA on and
off, EXTERNAL_ALARM (GCB1) to toggle the
EXTERNAL_ALARM pin on the accessory connector
J400-4, B+_CONTROL (GCB2) to switch the voltage
regulators (and the radio) on and FAST_OFF_IGN
(GCB5) which forcestheradio-on latch to the off condition. Two remaining ports, GCB3 and GCB4, are not
used.
Audio Ground
VAG is the dc bias used as an audio ground for the opamps that are external to the Audio Signalling Filter IC
(ASFIC). U251 forms this bias by dividing 9V3Vwith
resistors R251, R252, and buffering the 4.65 VDC result
with a voltage follower. VAG emerges at pin 1 of U251.
C235 is a bypass capacitor for VAG. The ASFIC generates its own 2.5V bias for its internal circuitry. C221 is
the bypass for the ASFIC’s audio ground dc bias.
NOTE
While thereare ASFIC VAG, and BOARD
VAG (U201-1), each of these are separated. They are not connected together.

Transmit Audio Circuits
Mic Input Path
The radio provides two microphone inputs, one on the
control head (internal mic audio) routed through J101-
16), and one on the accessory connector J400-2 (external mic audio). The two inputs are connected in parallel. Thedcbiasrequired by the microphoneis provided
by resistor R205, derived from the 9V3 source and filtered by R204 and C209. The microphone audio signal
is applied via R206 and C211, to the ASFIC at U201-B8.
Filter capacitor C210 provides low-pass filtering to
eliminate frequency components above 3 kHz, and
C211 serves as a DC blocking capacitor. The audio signal at U201-B8 should be approximately 80mV for 60%
of full system deviation.
Flat Tx Audio Input Path
The FLAT_TX_AUDIO signal from accessory connector J400-5 is bufferedbyop-ampU202-(1-3)and fed via
C205 to the ASFIC U201-D7.
PTT Sensing and TX Audio Processing
MIC PTTissensed by the µP. PTTcanalso be generated
by grounding pin 3 on the radio accessory connector,
J400. When microphone PTT is sensed, the µPwill
always configure the ASFIC to enable the mic audio
path. PTT can be configured to enable the EXT_MIC
audio path when J400-2 is connected with an external
mic audio input. Data PTT is configured to enable the
flat transmit audio path (when J400-5 is configured for
FLAT_TX_AUDIO).
Inside the ASFIC, the mic audio is filtered to eliminate
components outside the 300-3000Hz voice band and
pre-emphasize. The capacitor, C231, between ASFIC
pre-emphasis out U201-C8 and ASFIC limiter in U201E8 AC couples the signal between ASFIC blocks and
prevents the DC bias at the ASFIC output U0201-H8
from shifting when the ASFIC transmit circuits are
enabled. The signal isthenlimitedto prevent the transmitter from over deviating. The limited mic audio is
then routed through a summer which is used to add in
signalling data, and then to a splatter filter to eliminate
high frequency spectral components that couldbegenerated by the limiter. The audio is then routed to the
VCO attenuator, which is tuned in the factory or the
field to set the proper amount of FM deviation. The TX
audio emerges from the ASFIC at U201-H8 MOD IN,
and is routed to the RF section as MOD IN.

Transmit Signalling Circuits
See Figure 8-4 for reference for the following sections.
From a hardwarepoint of view, there are three types of
signalling:
• Sub-audible data (PL/DPL/LST/Connect tone)
that gets summed with transmit voice or signalling,
• DTMF data for telephone communication in
trunked and conventional systems, and
• Audible signalling High speed Trunking.
NOTE
The hardware supports all three types
while the radio software determines
which signalling type is available.
Sub-audible Data (PL/DPL)
Sub-audible data implies signalling whose bandwidth
is below 300Hz. PL and DPL waveforms are used for
conventional operation and connect tones for trunked
voice channel operation. The trunking connect tone is
simply a PL tone at a higher deviation level than PL in
a conventional system. Although it is referred to as
“sub-audible data,” the actual frequency spectrum of
these waveforms may be as high as 250 Hz, which is
audible to the human ear. However, the radio receiver
filters out any audio below 300Hz, so these tones are
never heard in the actual system.
PL CLK U201-C3 at twelve times the desired data rate.
For example, for a PL frequency of 103 Hz, the frequency of the square wave would be 1236 Hz.
This drives a tone generator inside U201 which generates a staircase approximation to a PL sine wave or
DPL data pattern. This internal waveform is then lowpass filtered and summed with voice or data. The
resulting summed waveform then appears on U201H8 (MOD IN), where it is sent to the RF board as previously described for transmit audio. A trunking connect tone would be generated in the same manner as a
PL tone.
High Speed Data
High speed data refers to the 3600 baud data waveforms, known as Inbound Signalling Words (ISWs)
used in a trunking system for high speed communication between the central controller and the radio. To
generate an ISW, the µP first programs the ASFIC
(U201) to the proper filter and gain settings. It then
begins strobing U201-G1 (TRK CLK IN) with a pulse
when the data is supposed to change states. U201’s 53-2 State Encoder (which is in a 2-state mode) is then
fed to the post-limiter summer block and then the
splatter filter.
From that point it is routed through the modulation
attenuator and then out of the ASFIC to the RF board.
Microphone audio is muted during High Speed Data
signalling.
Only one type of sub-audible data can be generated by
U201 (ASFIC) at any one time. The process is as follows, using the SPI BUS, the µP programs the ASFIC to
set up the proper low-speed data deviation and select
the PL or DPL filters. The µP then generates a square
wave which strobes the ASFIC PL/DPL encode input

Thereareseven frequencies, with fourinthe low group
(697, 770, 852, 941Hz) and three in the high group
(1209, 1336, 1477Hz).
The high-group tone is generated by the µP (U101-5)
strobing U201-G1 at six times the tone frequency for
tones less than 1440Hz or twice the frequency for tones
greater than 1440Hz. The low group tone is generated
by the µP (U101-7) strobing U201-G2 (DTMF CLCK) at
six times the tone frequency. Inside U201 the lowgroup and high-group tones are summed (with the
amplitude of the high group tone being approximately
2 dB greater than that of the low group tone) and then
pre-emphasized before being routed to the summer
and splatter filter. The DTMF waveform then follows
the same path as was described for high-speed data.

Squelch Detect
The radio’s RF circuits are constantly producing an
output at the discriminator (U5201-28). This signal
DET_AUDIO is routed to the ASFIC’s squelch detect
circuitry input SQIN (U201-H7). All of the squelch
detect circuitry is contained within the ASFIC. Therefore from a user’s point of view, DET_AUDIO enters
the ASFIC, and the ASFIC produces two CMOS logic
outputs based on the result. They are CHACT
(U201-H2) and SQDET (U201-H1).
The squelch signal entering the ASFIC is amplified, filtered, attenuated, and rectified. It is then sent to a com-

parator to produce an active high signal on CHACT.A
squelch tail circuit is used to produce SQDET
(U201-H1) from CHACT. The state of CHACT and SQ
DET is high (logic 1) when carrier is detected, otherwise low (logic 0).
CHACT is routed to U101-25 while SQDET adds up
with LOCK_DET, weighted by resistorsR113 andR114,
and isrouted toanA/D converter inputU101-43.From
the voltage weighted by the resistors the µP determines whether SQDET, LOCK_DET or both are active.
SQDET is used to determine all audio mute/unmute
decisions except for Conventional Scan. In this case
CHACT is a pre-indicator as it occurs slightly faster
than SQDET.
Audio Processing and Digital Volume Control
The receiver audio signal enters the controller section
from the IF IC (U5201-28) on DET_AUDIO and passes
through RC filter R203 and C208 which filters out IF
noise. The signal is AC coupled by C207 and enters the
ASFIC via PLIN U201-J7.
Inside the ASFIC, the signal goes through two paths in
parallel, the audio path and the PL/DPL path.
The audio path has a programmable amplifier, whose
setting is based on the channel bandwidth being
received, then a LPF filter to remove any frequency
components above3000Hzandthen an HPF to stripoff
any sub-audible data below 300Hz. Next, the recovered audiopassesthrough a De-emphasisfiltertocompensate for Pre-emphasis which is used to reduce the
effects of FM noise. The IC then passes the audio
through the 8-bit programmable attenuator whose
level is set depending on the value of the volume control. Finally the filtered audio signal passes through an
output buffer within the ASFIC. The audio signal exits
the ASFIC at RX_AUDIO (U201-J4).
The µP programs the attenuator, using the SPI bus,
based on the volume setting. The minimum /maximum settings of the attenuator are set by codeplug
parameters.
Since sub-audible signalling is summed with voice
information on transmit, it must be separated from the
voice information before processing. Any sub-audible
signalling enters the ASFIC from the IF IC at PLIN
U201-J7. Onceinsideit goes throughthe PL/DPL path.
The signal first passes through oneof2lowpassfilters,
either PL low pass filter or DPL/LST low pass filter.
Either signal is then filtered and goes through a limiter
and exits the ASFIC at PLLIM (U201-A4). At this point
the signal will appear as a square wave version of the
sub-audible signal which the radio received. The
microprocessor, U101-10 willdecodethe signal directly
to determine if it is the tone/code which is currently
active on that mode.
Audio Amplification Speaker (+) Speaker (-)
The ASFIC’s received audio signal output, U201-J4, is
routed through a voltage divider formed by R401 and
R402 to set the correct input level to the audio PA
(U401). This is necessary because the gain of the audio
PA is 46 dB, and the ASFIC output is capable of overdriving the PA unless the maximum volume is limited.
The audio then passes through C401 which provides
AC coupling and lowfrequencyroll-off. C402 provides
high frequency roll-off as the audio signal is routed to
pins 1 and 9 of the audio power amplifier U401.
The outputs of the Audio PA (U401 pins 4 and 6) are
routed to the external speaker via the accessory connector (J400-16 EXT SPKR+, and J400-1 EXT SPKR-,
respectively). One terminal of the radio’s internal
speaker (+) is connected to J400-13 (INT SPKR+), and
the other (-) to U401-6. To enable the internal speaker, a
jumper plug is inserted into J400 which connects pins
13 and 16 together. This completes the path between
the audio power amp U401-4 and the internal
speaker’s (+) terminal.
The audio power amplifier has one inverted and one
non-inverted output that produces the differential
audio output OUT1 and OUT2 (U401-4 & 6). The
inputs for each of these amplifiers are pins 1 and 9
respectively; these inputs are both tied to the received
audio. The audio PAs DC bias is not activated until the
audio PA is enabled at pin 8.
The audio PA is enabled via AUDIO_PA_ENABLE signal from the ASFIC (U201-B5). When the base of Q401
is low, the transistor is off and U401-8 is high, using
pull up resistor R406, the audio PA is ON. The U401-8
must be above 8.5VDCtoproperly enable the device.If
the voltage is between 3.3 and 6.4V, the device will be
active but has its input (U401-1/9) off. This is a mute
condition which is not employed in this radio design.
R404 ensures that the base of Q401 is high on power
up. Otherwise there may be an audio pop due to R406
pulling U401-8 high before the software can switch on
Q401.
The audio PA can also be muted externally when in the
Data Modem mode, which is selected by turning
switch S401 (1-3) off. This forces analog switch control
line U402-9 high via R442, changing its state. If J400-12
is pulled low, this is transferred via pins 14 and 1 of
U402 to the base of Q415, turning it on and, in turn,
Q401 on. This pulls U401-B low, muting the audio PA.
The EXT_SPKR+ and EXT_SPKR- outputs of the audio
PA have a DC bias which varies proportionately with
FLT A+ (U401-7). FLTA+of 11V yields DC offset of 5V,
and FLT A+ of 17V yields a DC offset of 8.5V. If either
of these linesisshortedto ground, it is possible thatthe
audio PA will be damaged. The audio PA contains
internal short-circuitprotection,however this situation
should be avoided. EXT_SPKR+ and EXT_SPKR- are

routed totheaccessoryconnector (J400-16 & 1) and, via
the jumper plug connecting J400-16to13,tothe control
head (connector J101-1 & 2).
Handset Audio
Certain hand-held accessories have a speaker within
them which require a different voltage level than that
provided by U401. For those devices HANDSET
AUDIO is available at control head microphone jack
J903-8.
The receivedaudiofromthe output of the ASFIC’s digital volume attenuator (U201-J4) is also routed to
U202-9 where it is amplified 15 dB; this is set by the
10k/68k combination of R233 and R232. This signal is
routed from the output of the op amp U202- 8 to J101-
14. Thecontrol headsendsthis signal directlyoutto the
microphone jack. The maximum value of this output is
6.6Vp-p.
External Rx Audio
RX Audio is also routed to the accessory connector
J400-11.This audio level is fixed and notaffectedby the
setting of the digital volume attenuator. The source of
this audio is selectable as follows:
In the Data Modem mode (switch S401, 1-3 off), U4029 is high, and FLAT_ RX_AUDIO, directly from detector U5201-28 via C230 and R236, is routed from U402
pin 10 to pin 5, amplified by U403 and applied to J40011 via R419 and C419.
In Normal mode (switch S401 1-3 on), U402-9 is low,
and GATED_RX_AUDIO, from ASFIC U201-H5 via
C237 and R235, is routed from U402 pin 6 to pin 5,
amplified by U403 and applied to J0400-11 via R419
and C419. The values of R235 and R236 provide the
correct audio levels for GATED and FLAT_RX
_AUDIO paths, respectively. The GATED_RX_AUDIO
signal is PL-filtered, de-emphasized, and controlled by
the squelchmutegate. The FLAT_ RX_AUDIOsignalis
non-de-emphasized, unmuted, and is flat between
0.6 Hz and 3 kHz. The radio is shipped configured for
Normal mode operation.
Receive Signalling Circuits
Sub-audible Data (PL/DPL) and High Speed Data
Decoder
The ASFIC (U201) is used tofilterandlimitallreceived
data. Thedataenters the ASFIC atU201-J7.Inside U201
the data is filtered according to data type (HS or LS),
then it is limited to a 0-5V digital level. The trunking
high speed data appears at U201-G4, where it connects
to the µP U101-11.
The low speed limited data output (PL, DPL, and LST)
appears at U201-A4, where it connects to the µP U101-
10. While receiving low speed data, the µP may output
a sampling waveform depending on the sampling
technique to U201-C3 between 1 and 2 kHz.
The low speed data is read by the µP at twice the frequency of the sampling waveform; a latch configuration in the ASFIC stores one bit every clock cycle. The
external capacitors C223, C225, and C226 set the low
frequency pole for a zero crossings detector in the lim-

iters for PL and HS data. The hysteresis of these limiters is programmed based on the type of received data.
NOTE
During HS data, the µP may generate a
sampling waveform seen at U0201-G1.
Alert Tone Circuits
When the software determines that it needs to give the
operator an audible feedback (for a good key press, or
for a bad key press), or radio status (trunked system
busy, phone call, circuit failures), it sends an alert tone
to the speaker.
It does so by sending SPI BUS data to U201 which sets
up the audio path to the speaker for alert tones. The
alert tone itself can be generated in one of two ways:
internally by the ASFIC, or externally using the µP and
the ASFIC.
The allowable internal alert tones are 304, 608, 911, and
1823Hz. In this case a code contained within the SPI
BUS load to the ASFICsetsupthepath and determines
the tone frequency, and at what volume level to generate the tone. (It does not have to be related to the voice
volume setting).
For external alert tones, the µP can generate any tone
within the 100-3000Hz audio band. This is accomplished by the µP generating a square wave which
enters the ASFIC at U201-C3.
Inside the ASFIC, this signal is routed to the alert tone
generator; the output of the generator is summed into
the audio chain just after the RX audio de-emphasis
block. Inside U201 the tone is amplified and filtered,
then passed through the 8-bit digital volume attenuator, which is typically loaded with a special value for
alert tone audio.Thetoneexits at U201-J4 and is routed
to the audio PA like receive audio.
Accessory Connector Configurations
The configuration of the pins of accessory connector
J400 can be changed to support different accessories by
changing the settings of dual switch S401.
S401 (pins 2-4) is turned ON if external Ignition Sense
is not used, and turned OFF if an external Ignition
Sense cable is installed. The operation of the Ignition
Sense circuitry is described above in the “Electronic
On/Off” and “Ignition” sections of the Controller
Detailed Functional Description.
S401 (pins 1 and 3) is turned ON to support Remote
Desk Set, Public Address and External Alarm, and is
turned OFF to configure the accessory connector for
External Data Modem applications.
NOTE
The radio is shipped with Ignition Sense
disabled and Remote Desk Set, Public
Address and External Alarm enabled.
Remote Desk Set
For Remote Desk Set applications, switch S401 (1-3)
should be ON. This pulls the analog switchcontrolline
U402-9 low, and the switch positions of U402 are as
shown in the schematic. The PTT signal from the desk
set at U400-3 is routed via U402-4 and 2 and via U203 1 and 2 (U203 is ON since pin 4 is high via R433 and
R431) to µPportU101-22.The hook signal at U400-14 is
inverted by Q101 and applied to µP port U101-23.
Transmit audio at U400-2 (EXTERNAL_MIC_ AUDIO)
is connected in parallel with the front panel mic audio
input and applied to ASFIC U201-B8. DC bias required
by microphone is provided by R204 and R205.
GATED_RX_AUDIO which is de-emphasized and
controlled by the squelch mute gate is obtained from
ASFIC U201-H5, buffered and amplified by U403 and
sent to the desk set at J400-11.
Public Address
Public address operation requires an accessory
HLN9322 Public Address Switch Box and one or more
HSN1000 amplified speakers. In the Public Address
mode, the radio functions simply as a junction box
which routes microphone audio from the front panel
connector directlytotheswitchbox via J400-2, where it
is further amplified and routed to the amplified speakers. Additionally, the microphonePTTdoes not key the
transmitter, and the microphone off-hook condition is
ignored, appearing to be on-hook.
For Public Address operation, switch S401 (1-3) should
be ON. This pullstheanalogswitch control line U402-9
low, and the switch positions of U402 are as shown in
the schematic. When Public Address mode is turned
on using the Switch Box, the switch box pulls J400-12
low. This signal is passed through switch U402 from
pin 14 to 15, which also goes low. The hook line is
pulled low by D401, forcing the microphone to appear
on-hook. The control line to gate U203-4, normally
high via R433, is pulled low, turning off U203 and preventing MIC PTT from being applied to the µP. Thus,
microphone audio is routed to the public address
speakers but the radio does not transmit, and receiver
operation is maintained in the same condition it was
when the microphone was on-hook.
SW_B+ from J400-9 is supplied to the switch box,
where it powers the internal amplifier stages and also
turns on a rely which applies battery voltage to the
external amplified speakers. Thus, when the radio is
turned off, all PA circuits and amplified speakers are
turned off as well.

Controller Audio & Signaling Circuits
External Alarm
For External Alarm installations, switch S401 (1-3)
should be ON. This pulls the analog switchcontrolline
U402-9 low, and the switch positions of U402 are as
shown in the schematic. When the radio’s alarm mode
is enabled and the proper code has been received,
ASFIC port U201-A3 goes high, turning on Q411 via
U402-(11-13) and R411, saturating Q411 and pulling
J400-4 low.
For External Alarm installations, switch S401 (1-3)
should beOFF. Thispullsthe analog switch controlline
U402-9 high via R442, and the switch positions of U402
are the opposite from those shown in the schematic.
Data Modem
For DataModeminstallations, switch S401 (1-3)should
be OFF. This pulls the analog switch control line U4029 high and the switch positions of U402 are thrown
opposite of that shown in the schematic.
NOTE
All Data Modem I/O functionsareactive
low, 0 VDC.
The reconfigured pin functions of accessories connector J400 are as follows:
J400-12 is an input to the radio which allows the data
modem to mute the radio’s speaker audio while data
bursts are being received. The modem pulls J400-12
low, which is routed through switch U402 from pin 14
to 1, and turns on Q415 and, therefore, Q401. This pulls
U401-8 low, muting the audio power amplifier.
J400-4 is an output from the radio which tells the
modem that the radio is transmitting by pulling J400-4
low. Two non-simultaneous conditions are summed to
recognize transmit mode under all timing conditions.
If PTT is low, Q410 is off and a high is provided via
R440, D403, U402 pins 12-13, and R411, to turn on Q411
and pull J400-4 low. If the transmit-enable voltage
K9V1_ENABLE is high, a high is provided via D403,
U402 pins 12-13, and R411, to turn on Q411 and pull
J0400-4 low.
J400-15 provides system busy indication by observing
the status of the AUDIO_PA_ENABLE line, which is
low during active receive conditions. This low is provided to J400-15 via D402, indicating a signal is being
received.
J400-3 is DATA_PTT input to the radio, routed via
switch U402 pins 4 to 3, to U101-8. TheASFIC(U201)is
configured for FLAT_TX_AUDIO when DATA_PTT is
asserted at U101--8.
J400-5 provides aFLAT_TX_AUDIO input to the radio,
via C418 and gain-reduction buffer U202 (pins 1, 2, 3),
to U201-D7. This connection is always provided and is
not reconfigured by the setting of switch S401 (1-3).
J400-11 provides a Flat/Unmuted RX Audio Output
from the radio. This audio is obtained directly from
detector U5201-28 via C230 and R236, is routed from
U402 pin 10 to pin 5, amplified by U403 and applied to
J400-11 via R419 and C419.
RSSI Buffer
For special applications, a DC voltage proportional to
received signal strength can be provided to J400-15.
This requires removal of resistor R430 and diode D402,
and insertion of resistor R215. The DC signal-strength
voltage is provided by detector U5201-11, buffered by
U202 (pins 12, 13, 14), and routed via R215 to J400-15.
