This manual provides technical information necessary for servicing the EVX-5300/-5400 UHF Digital/Analog Mobile Transceiver.
Servicing this equipment requires expertise in handling surface-mount chip components. Attempts by non-qualied persons to
service this equipment may result in permanent damage not covered by the warranty, and may be illegal in some countries.
Two PCB layout diagrams are provided for each double-sided circuit board in the transceiver. Each side of is referred to by the
type of the majority of components installed on that side (“leaded” or “chip-only”). In most cases one side has only chip components, and the other has either a mixture of both chip and leaded components (trimmers, coils, electrolytic capacitors, ICs,
etc.), or leaded components only.
As described in the pages to follow, the advanced microprocessor design of the EVX-5300/-5400 allows a complete alignment
of this transceiver to be performed without opening the case of the radio; all adjustments can be performed from the personal
computer, using with the Vertex Standard FIF-12 USB Programming Interface and CE142 Software.
While we believe the technical information in this manual to be correct, Vertex Standard assumes no liability for damage that
may occur as a result of typographical or other errors that may be present. Your cooperation in pointing out any inconsistencies
in the technical information would be appreciated.
Important Note
This transceiver is assembled using Pb (lead) free solder, based on the RoHS specication.
Only lead-free solder (Alloy Composition: Sn-3.0Ag-0.5Cu) should be used for repairs performed on this apparatus.
The solder stated above utilizes the alloy composition required for compliance with the lead-free specication, and any
solder with the above alloy composition may be used.

Circuit Description
1. Receiver System
1-1. Front-end rF ampliFier
Incoming RF signal from the antenna passes through the
Low-pass lter, antenna switching diode D1014, D1016 (both
JDP2S12CR), and the 1st RF attenuator Q1037 (SKY12338),
and then removed undesired frequencies by the varactor tuned
band-pass lter D1022 and D1023 (both 1SV323).
The filtered RF signal is amplified by Q1045 (2SC3356)
and then passes through the varactor tuned band-pass filter
D1026, D1027, D1061 (all 1SV323) and the 2nd RF attenuator Q1050 (SKY12338), and then applied to the 1st mixer
Q1053 (AK1220).
1-2. First mixer
The RF signal is mixed with the 1st local signal between
352.15 and 419.15 MHz (Type “G6”) or 399.15 and 469.15
MHz (Type “G7”) in the 1st mixer Q1053 (AK1220), to produce 50.85 MHz 1st IF signal.
The 1st local signal is generated by the VCO, which consists
of Q1055 (2SK508), varactor diodes D1029 (1SV279), D1032
(Type “G6”: 1SV279, Type “G7”: 1SV280), D1036 (1SV279),
and D1037 (Type “G6”: 1SV279, Type “G7”: 1SV280). The
1st local signal is supplied to the 1st mixer Q1053 (AK1220)
through the buffer amplifier Q1064 (2SC5006) and Q1066
(2SC5226).
1-3. iF ampliFier & demodulator
The 1st IF signal is applied to the monolithic crystal filter
XF1001 to strip away all but the desired signal, and then supplied to the custom IC Q1070 (RFIC) through the IF amplier
Q1068 (2SC5226). The custom IC Q1070 (RFIC) converts
the 1st IF signal into the Base Band signal.
The Base Band signal from the custom IC Q1070 (RFIC) is
applied to another custom IC Q1001 (OMAP), which is demodulated by the Digital Signal Processor.
1-4. audio ampliFier
The demodulated signal from the custom IC Q1001 (OMAP)
is applied to another custom IC Q1044 (PMAIC), which
convert to analog signal. The output signal from the custom
IC Q1044 (PMAIC) is applied to the AF amplifier Q1015
(NJM12902) and Q1027 (TDA1519CTH). The output signal
from Q1027 (TDA1519CTH) is applied to the front panel
audio speaker or external speaker which is connected to the
EXT SP jack (J1004).
2. Transmitter System
2-1. miC ampliFier & modulator
The speech signal from the external microphone which connected to the J2001 (EVX-5300) or J3001 (EVX-5400) is
supplied to the AF amplier Q2005 (NJM2125: EVX-5300)
or Q3010 (NJM2125: EVX-5400), and then applied to the
custom IC Q1044 (PMAIC), which is amplified the speech
signal.
The amplified speech signal from the custom IC Q1044
(PMAIC) is supplied to another custom IC Q1001 (OMAP),
which process the speech signal by the Digital Signal Processor.
The processed speech signal from the custom IC Q1001
(OMAP) is supplied to the modulator section of the custom
IC Q1070 (RFIC), which modulates the speech signal into the
FM or digital signal.
2-2. drive & Final ampliFier stages
The modulated signal from the custom IC Q1070 (RFIC)
is buffered by Q1061 (2SK3077) and amplified by Q1052
(RD01MUS1), and then is applied to the Power Module
Q1046 (RA60H3847M1A: Type “G6”, RA60H4452M1A:
Type “G7”), which is amplied up to 45 watts output power.
The transmit signal then passes through the antenna switch
D1018 and D1019 (both MA4P959) and is low pass ltered
to suppress away harmonic spurious radiation before delivery
to the antenna.
2-3. automatiC transmit power Control
T he f o r ward p ower o f th e Powe r Modul e Q104 6
(RA60H3847M1A: Type “G6”, RA60H4452M1A: Type
“G7”) is detected by D1020 (HSM88AS), and then applied to
the comparator Q1074 (ADM8566ARM).
The comparator Q1074 (ADM8566ARM) compares detected
voltage of forward power and power control voltage from
custom IC Q1070 (RFIC), makes output power stable by controlling the bias voltage RF amplier Q1052 (RD01MUS1).
Additionally, output voltage of operational amp Q1043 (ADM8566ARM) is supplied to Power Module. The output level
is controlled by Q1070 (RFIC) to three level (45 watt model)

Circuit Description
3. PLL Frequency Synthesizer
The frequency synthesizer consists of VCO, TCXO (X1002),
and the custom IC Q1070 (RFIC).
The output frequency from TCXO is 19.2 MHz and the tolerance is ±1.5 ppm in the temperature range –22 °F to +140 °F
(–30 °C to +60 °C).
3-1. vCo (voltage Controlled osCillator
While th e radio is receiving, the RX oscillator Q1055
(2SK508) generates a programmed frequency between 352.15
and 419.15 MHz (Type “G6”) or 399.15 and 469.15 MHz
(Type “G7”) as 1st local signal.
While the radio is transmitting, the TX oscillator Q1054
(2SK508) generates a frequency between 403-470 MHz (Type
“G6”) or 450-520 MHz (Type “G7”).
The output from oscillator is amplified by buffer amplifier
Q1064 (2SC5006) and then is divided, one is fed back to the
PLL Circuit in the custom IC Q1070 (RFIC). The other one
is supplied to the 1st mixer Q1053 (AK1220) in case of the
reception. In the transmission, the output is modulated to the
FM (or digital) in the custom IC Q1070 (RFIC), and then
supplied to the transmitter section described previously.

Alignment
Introduction
The EVX-5300/-5400 has been aligned at the factory for the
specied performance across the entire frequency range specied. Realignment should therefore not be necessary except
in the event of a component failure. All component replacement and service should be performed only by an authorized
Vertex Standard representative, or the warranty policy may be
voided.
The following procedures cover the sometimes critical and
tedious adjustments that are not normally required once the
transceiver has left the factory. However, if damage occurs
and some parts are replaced, realignment may be required. If
a sudden problem occurs during normal operation, it is likely
due to component failure; realignment should not be done until after the faulty component has been replaced.
We recommend that servicing be performed only by authorized Vertex Standard service technicians who are experienced with the circuitry and fully equipped for repair and
alignment. Therefore, if a fault is suspected, contact the dealer from whom the transceiver was purchased for instructions
regarding repair. Authorized Vertex Standard service technicians realign all circuits and make complete performance
checks to ensure compliance with factory specications after
replacing any faulty components. Those who do undertake
any of the following alignments are cautioned to proceed at
their own risk. Problems caused by unauthorized attempts
at realignment are not covered by the warranty policy. Also,
Vertex Standard must reserve the right to change circuits
and alignment procedures in the interest of improved performance, without notifying owners. Under no circumstances
should any alignment be attempted unless the normal function and operation of the transceiver are clearly understood,
the cause of the malfunction has been clearly pinpointed and
any faulty components replaced, and the need for realignment
determined to be absolutely necessary. The following test
equipment (and thorough familiarity with its correct use) is
necessary for complete realignment. Correction of problems
caused by misalignment resulting from use of improper test
equipment is not covered under the warranty policy. While
most steps do not require all of the equipment listed, the interactions of some adjustments may require that more complex
adjustments be performed afterwards. Do not attempt to perform only a single step unless it is clearly isolated electrically
from all other steps. Have all test equipment ready before
beginning, and follow all of the steps in a section in the order
presented.

Alignment Preparation & Precautions
A 50- RF Dummy Load and in-line wattmeter must be connected to the main antenna jack in all procedures that call
for transmission, except where specified otherwise. Correct
alignment is not possible with an antenna.
After completing one step, read the following step to determine whether the same test equipment will be required. If not,
remove the test equipment (except dummy load and wattmeter, if connected) before proceeding.
Correct alignment requires that the ambient temperature be
the same as that of the transceiver and test equipment, and
that this temperature be held constant between 20 °C and 30
°C. When the transceiver is brought into the shop from hot or
cold air, it should be allowed time to come to room temperature before alignment.
Whenever possible, alignments should be made with oscillator shields and circuit boards rmly afxed in place. Also, the
test equipment must be thoroughly warmed up before beginning.
Note: Signal levels in dB referred to in this procedure are
based on 0 dBµ EMF = 1.0 µV.
