GENERAL
1.1
Introduction
The VT-3A130 Amplifier provides the final stage of RF amplification and filtering for the VT-3A
Transmitters. The output power is 1.0 - 4.0 Watt adjustable (carrier only). The amplifier operates
over 118MHz - 138 MHz frequency range without tuning.
Output filtering for the VT-3A130 Amplifier is provided by an Output Lowpass Filter Board. The
Output Lowpass Filter Board is mounted in a separate compartment of the amplifier case in order to
provided maximum attenuation of harmonic and other spurious signals.
Refer to section 4.1.2 "VT-3A130 Amplifier Schematic Diagram" for the Amplifier schematic
diagram and section 4.1.3 for the Output Lowpass Filter component layout and schematic diagram.

2.1
THEORY OF OPERATION
General
VT-3A130 Amplifier is a Class A linear amplifier with a low level AM modulator. A built in
regulated power supply provides approximately 15.0Vdc output voltage with the input voltage
range of 10.0 Vdc to 17 Vdc. This amplifier utilizes a 10 Watt hybrid power amplifier module
manufactured by Mitsubishi. The module is mounted directly to the heatsink with its leads soldered
to a circuit board where DC supply voltage and RF input and output connections are made.
Power for the VT-3A130 Amplifier is provided from +13.8 Vdc and 9.5Vdc supplies. The
supplies can be continuously connected to the amplifier. The VT-3A130 Amplifier will draw only
about 4 mA of current from +13.8 Vdc and about 0.1 mA from 9.5Vdc until the AMPLIFIER
ENABLE pin is grounded.
The VT-3A130 Amplifier is housed in a machined aluminum case that ensures optimum RF
shielding, provides a good ground, and also acts as a heatsink.
2.2
Power Requirements
The current drawn from the +9.5 Vdc supply should not exceed 10 mA. Current consumption of
the +13.8 Vdc line is dependent on transmitter frequency, output power, temperature, and supply
voltage and can range from 800 mA to 1500 mA. The current drawn from the +13.8 Vdc supply
should not exceed 1500 mA under normal circumstances and should never be allowed to exceed
1700 mA.
2.3
RF Circuitry
Refer to Section 4.1.2 "VT-3A130 Amplifier Schematic Diagram". The RF input signal with a
level of -5 dBm to +5 dBm is fed to the VT-3A130 Amplifier Board and then is modulated by a
balanced AM Modulator which consists of Q1, Q3, Q4, and a wide band RF transformer XFMR1.
Q1, Q3 collectors are supplied by 15.0 Vdc in order to increase the modulation linearity. On the
contrary, the base circuitry of Q1, Q3 and Q4 are biased by 9.5 Vdc. The typical output power
from the Modulator is about 3dBm to 5 dBm. The signal is then amplified further by a Hybrid
Power Amplifier Module U1, which is the class A, 10 watt linear amplifier. The U1 is supplied
from a 15.0Vdc internal regulated power supply. Maximum carrier power output is 4 - 5 watt for
the input voltage range from 10 Vdc to 17 Vdc. Output filtering for the VT-3A130 Amplifier is
provided by a Low Pass Filter Board. The Low Pass filter assembly is mounted in a separate
compartment of the amplifier case in order to provided maximum attenuation of harmonic and other
spurious signals. Refer to Section 4.1.1 "VT-3A130 Amplifier Component Layout"

The part of the output RF energy is coupled by a directional detector circuit TL1 which provides a
means of linearization of the audio and leveling of the output power over the frequency range 118
MHz to 138 MHz.
The AC coupled audio signal is applied to the inverting input of U4a in order to provide
predistortions to the input modulation audio signal, which is supplied from the audio amplifier U2
to the non-inverting input of U4a.
On the contrary the DC coupled part of the detected audio is passed through the 50Hz low pass
filter U6a, U6b, and than compared with a certain DC level which is set by R19. The difference of
the signals is amplified by U4b and applied to pin 2 of the Power Amplifier Module in order to
keep the output power relatively constant over the frequency range of 118MHz to 138MHz.
2.3.1 VT-3/150 Lowpass Filter
The VT-3/150 Output Lowpass Filter is a 50 ohm, 6 pole, reciprocal filter with a 3 dB cutoff
frequency of approximately 150 MHz. The low pass filter assembly attenuates the desired signal's
harmonics as well as any other out-of-band emissions so that a 'clean' RF signal is output to the
antenna connector.
2.4
Power Supply Circuitry.
The VT-3A130 Amplifier has shutdown circuitry based on Q2 that allows decrease power
consumption, less than 0.1 mA from 9.5Vdc, in standby mode. The voltage level on the amplifier
enable line of less than +2.0 Vdc turns on the transistor Q2. Q2 supplies the base circuitry of Q1,
Q3, Q4, and operational amplifiers U2, U4, and U6.
The U3 LM2588 used as a step-up (boost) regulator. This is a switching regulator that produces an
output voltage greater than the input supply voltage. The following is the LM1084ADJ, a low
dropout voltage (LDO) positive adjustable regulators with a maximum dropout of 1.5V at 5A of
load current. The LM1084 used as a postregulator that reduces the ripple current and also prevents
the output voltage level from overshooting the maximum of 16Vdc.

VT-3A130 AMPLIFIER ALIGNMENT
General
Connections to the power supply, audio input and transmit enable line are clearly marked on the
amplifier case. The amplifier is enabled when the enable line (AMPLIFIER ENABLE pin) is
grounded.
If the amplifier is installed in the transmitter, alignment is simplified by using the SR-3 Subrack,
SM-3 System Monitor, and RF extender cable to provide transmitter power and signal
interconnection (see the Transmitter Main Board Manual for details). For complete transmitter
alignment, the Transmitter Main Board, Synthesizer, Amplifier, and Audio Processor should be
tuned in the aforementioned order. Please refer the corresponding manuals for each module.
3.2
Repair Note
The VT-3A130 Amplifier is mainly made up of surface mount devices which should not be
removed or replaced using an ordinary soldering iron. Removal and replacement of surface mount
components should be performed only with specifically designed surface mount rework and repair
stations complete with ElectroStatic Dissipative (ESD) protection.
When removing Surface Mount Solder Jumpers, it is recommended to use solder braid in place of
manual vacuum type desoldering tools when removing jumpers. This will help prevent damage to
the circuit boards.
3.3
Printed Circuitboard Numbering Convention
To ease troubleshooting and maintenance procedures, Daniels Electronics Limited has adopted a
printed circuitboard (PCB) numbering convention in which the last two digits of the circuitboard
number represent the circuitboard version. For example:
• PCB number 43-912010 indicates circuitboard version 1.0;
• PCB number 50002-02 indicates circuitboard version 2.0.
All PCB's manufactured by Daniels Electronics are identified by one of the above conventions.

REVISION HISTORY
ISSUE DATE
DESCRIPTION AND (REASON)
May 97
• First Issue.
Mar 98
• To improve the performance at -40˚C. ECO #546.
C35 was 2.2µF now not installed.
R19 was 274R now not installed.
R20 was 274R now not installed.
R21 was 18R2 now 0R00.
PCB was 50048-01 now 50048-02.
Mar 98
• Updated the PCB to make it easier to assemble. ECO #551.
PCB was 50048-02 now 50048-03.
Mar 00
• Corrected the instruction manual part number on the title page.
Part number was IM20-VT3A130AMP now IM22-VT3A130AMP
• The Amplifier is now capable of working over the whole AM Frequency
band (118 – 138 MHz) without being re-tuned.
