INTRODUCTION
1. This section provides a technical description of the BSR 113 circuit operation. Reference should be made to the functional block diagram (Figure 1) and the circuit diagrams in Section 7.
RADIO CIRCUITRY
Signal Input and Isolation
2. The incoming RF signal is detected by an external antenna connected to socket SK7, from where the signal passes through an isolating transformer (T1) which improves immunity to Electro-Static Discharge (ESD). The signal is then fed to the first RF helical fi lter, FL11, which protects the RF amplifier fro m str ong out-of­band signals.
RF Amplifier and Filters
3. Impedance matching is provided by L15, L16 and associated components. The RF signal is amplified by TR3 and then fil tered by the helical fil ters FL8, FL9 and FL10. They provide a degree of selectivity before passing the signal to the first mixer.
First Local Oscillator
4. The first local oscillator comprises TR1, XL1 and associated components. Frequency adjustment is provided by C3. The collector o f TR1 is t uned to the third harmonic of XL1 by C9 and L6. The output of TR1 is then doubled by TR2 to provide the correct injection frequency for the first mixer.
5. The frequency of the crystal is calculated by using the following formula: Crystal (XL1) frequency (MHz) = Receiver Channel Frequency (MHz) - 45MHz

First Mixer
6. The first mixer comprises TR6 and associated components. The i njecti on fr equency from the first local oscillator is fed to the first mixer via the helical filter FL7 and inductor L9. The RF signal is input via the inductor L13. The difference signal of 45MHz is selected by the collector load of L12, R18 and C29. The 45MHz is then filtered by FL1 and FL2 to remove unwanted signals.
Second Local Oscillator and Mixer
7. The second local oscillator is formed by TR4, XL2 and associated components. It runs at a fixed frequency of 44.545MHz. The signal is selected from the collector of TR4 and input, along with the RF from FL2, onto the base of mixer TR5. The difference signal of 455kHz then passes to FL5, with matching provided by R31.
Second IF Stage
8. The second IF chain comprises three ceramic filters of channel bandwidt h, FL5 , FL6 and FL4, each followed by an IF amplifier. After FL5 the 455kHz IF signal is amplified by the low noise transistor TR25 and then passed to FL6. The signal is then fed to IC1 (pin 1) where the r emaining IF amplifi cation and amplitude limiting are provided. Another stage of filtering is carried out by FL4. Demodulation is carried out using the ceramic discriminator FL3 as the quadrature network for the on-chip demodulator. After demodulation the signal is output from IC1 (pin 14).
Audio Splitting
9. The demodulated audio signal leaves IC1 (pin 14) and divides three ways: a) To a de-emphasis circuit (comprising R339 and C104) and the Rx Audio path. b) To a de-emphasis circuit (comprising R365 and C154) and the Noise Squelch
path.
c) To an active fi lter (comprising TR24, C82, C83, R341 and R344) where it then
divides two ways: i) To the Sub-Audio Tone path. ii) To the Data path.

RX AUDIO PATH
Filtering and Amplification
10. The audio si gnal is de-emphasised by R339 and C104 to produce the test and tune
up signal Audio X (available at the i nternal test socket SK5 pin 2) . It also passes through two stages of high pass filtering and two stages of low pass filtering, provided by IC11 (pin 8) and IC11 (pin 14), to become the Rx Audio signal. The fitting of link LK4 enables the signal to bypass the high pass filter stage IC11 (pin
1) (for future applications). IC11 (pin 7) acts as a buffer amplifier.
Speaker Audio
11. The Rx Audio output from IC11 (pin 14) is fed, via the audio gate TR13, to the
input of an operational-amplifier circuit, IC10, via R93 and RV4. Variable resistor RV4 provides volume control. The speaker driver uses a bridge technique to provide maximum voltage swing on the speaker driver output. Resistors R168, R169, R170 and R171 are load protection for IC10 to prevent any damage to the chip resulting from over dissipation.
Line Out Driver
12. The Rx Audio output from IC11 (pin 14) is also fed, via the audio gate TR23 and
RV6, to the Line Out driver amplifier IC8. In normal operation link LK2 i s fitted and the Line Out signal is gated by the noise Squelch, via gate TR18. Alt ernati vely, the signal can be continuously enabled by removing link LK2.
13. The output of IC8 (pin 1) is passed to the l ine termination loading and safe ty bar rier
circuitry provided by components R104, R105, R106, R107, R108, R109, C242, C243, C244, CS4 and T4. The Line Out signal then proceeds to the external line connection via SK2 (pins 4 and 6).
14. The links LK22, LK23, LK24, and LK25 are intended for setting the Line Out
termination loading when connecting to Public Telephone Operator (PTO) lines in different countries (subject to national li ne connection approval). For further details refer to Section 4. In normal operation Link LK5 is fitted and is removed only for factory test purposes. The Tone Out signal is combined with the Line Out signal by the fitting of link LK10 (refer to Section 4).
