200W UHF LDMOS AMPLIFIER MODULE
SCH0192AR0
DESCRIPTION
The RF module is an integrated TV linear amplifier designed for UHF band, this module employs push-pull
LDMOS technology in order to achieve very good efficiency, high linearity and reliability.
LDMOS transistors operate in AB class. It is a wideband amplifier over the full frequency, no adjustment is
required for the channel change. The board includes RF section amplifier, bias circuit, protection circuit and
matching networks. A silver plated copper plate is brazed with PCB in order to obtain low thermal resistance.
Providing a minimum of 200W Pk sync linear power, this module is the perfect amplifier for any broadband
UHF power transmitter.

- Calibration steps
STEP 1. Close the input and the output of the module by connecting them to a 50W
W dummy load
and connect the spectrum analyser through a directive sample, in order to look for self-oscillation of the
module, if any (anyway the module has been designed so that it would not self-oscillate even if totally decoupled, without any input or output load).
STEP 2. Check the voltages of the polarisation circuits without assembling the transistors first:
connect the 32V power supply to the proper turret by means of a fastening screw, then give power and check
data:
- the stabilised voltage on the zener diodes DZ1 and DZ2 is about 15V compared to the ground;
- the stabilised voltage on the zener diodes DZ3 and DZ4 is about 6.8V compared to the ground;
- the voltage on the pads to which the gates of the LDMOS transistors will be soldered (R23 and R24
resistors side) changes from 0V to a maximum value of about 6V when moving the relevant trimmer (R7-R8).
STEP 3.
Check the work of the protections.
- Set both trimmers so that there is a value of about 4.5V on the pads of the gates;
- solder some wire to the pad between the two LEDs, next to the serigraphy of the input hybrid H1;
Solder a wire
- in order to check the work of the protections aboard, a power of about 4V has to be supplied to the wire,
for example by touching with it the reophore of C23 or C24 which is not connected to ground; the two red
LEDs will immediately light up and the two RF transistors will be switched off at the same time: the polarisation
current (2A) will decrease to 0 and of course the gain curve displayed by the spectrum analyser will decrease;
- after this it is important to restore the position of the two trimmers for the minimum voltage! Then
disconnect the 32V power supply.
STEP 4. Fastening of the LDMOS transistors: after properly cleaning the plate surface, smear a thin
layer of silicone fat on the lower side of the flange of the MOSFETs, fasten them to the heat sink and solder
the gate first, then the drain. Solder the two 13pF (ATC) chip capacitors and above them the two 1-5pF
43
capacitive trimmers, between the two pair of gates, as shown by the mounting plan.
STEP 5.
Connect serially a c.c. amperometer to the power supply, with scale starting from more than 5A
(i.e. 10A).
STEP 6. Power the module and check the MOSFET is not absorbing current; this means that the device
is integral and working correctly.
STEP 7. Slowly turn the R7 trimmer until the MOSFET absorbs 1A, always checking that there are no
self-oscillation; under this conditions it is possible to check by means of a digital tester that the voltage on the
gate is about 5.2-5.4V.
STEP 8. Repeat the previous step for the other section of the module, this time turnign R8 and checking
that the indication of the current on the amperometer increases to 2A total (which includes the current of the
other device left on).
STEP 9.
Check the response curve of the module by means of the network analyser.
STEP 10. Check the response curve for low signal with centre 660MHz and span 500MHz, 2dB/div.
STEP 11. The curve should be similar to the one enclosed, with a tolerance of ± 0.5dB. To obtain this, act
on the four trimmers C41-C41a and C42-C42a with the proper “calibrator”, inorder to flatten the curve as
much as possible, especially at the edged of the band which represents the minimum values.
STEP 12. Finally, check that the current in stand-by does not increase by more than 15÷20%, reaching at
worst 2.3÷2.4A when the heat sink is hot and not ventilated.
Note: when mounting-removing the PALLET on the heat sink, tightly fasten the screw of each all “N” input and output
connectors. These are mounted with a single 3mm screw and if it is not properly fastened it may be detached from the PCB
by a movement of the connector once it has already been soldered to the path.

The control board SCH0223AR1 manages the operational logic of the amplifier: switching on and off, power
supply and fans, alarms and protections, remote control, human-machine interface. All of that is performed by
a modern and powerful 16 bit micro-controller, which is the main part of the board.
Figure 1 shows the block diagram.

It can be seen that the micro-controller is the heart of the control system, to which the various peripherals
(power supply, serial ports, telemeasure socket, AGC port, RF amplifier module, ROM, clock, display and
keys) are interfaced.
- Power Supply
The board is powered with a continuous +24V voltage applied on the J14 connector. From that the +5V
voltage, powering the most of the chips (micro-controller, operational amplifiers, display, etc.) is derived by
means of a switching converter (see IC19). A +12Vdc voltage is obtained from it as well, by means of a linear
conversion provided by the integrated circuit IC8. From this, a -12Vdc voltage is obtained by means of the
integrated circuit IC5. The -12V voltage is used to adjust the contrast of the display.
- Connectors
On the board SCH0223AR1 there are several connectors used as interfaces for the peripherals of the apparatus
and the ports for external communication.
POWER SUPPLY
The connectors J1, J6, J8 e J12 are used to connect the power supply powering the RF modules. The number
of power supply used changes depending on the amplifier, up to eight power supply. They are connected in
the order shown in Table 1 below. Remaining connectors, if any, are left unconnected.

Table 1: Interface connectors for the power supply
Through this connection, each power supply provides the level of voltage and current acquired by the microcontroller by means of an internal ADC. Besides the connectors allow the control board to turn on or off the
individual power supply (for instance when an alarm occurs).
53
RF AMPLIFICATION
The J3 connector interfaces the control board with the RF amplification section. Through this connector the
micro-controller acquires the forward and reflected powers, unbalancing (if any), and temperature of the
critic amplification area. It also allows to inhibit the transistors in case of reflected power alarm, by means of
a totally hardware, thus extremely fast protection.
Depending on the apparatus, this connector may also allow to enable or disable the cooling fans of the critic
area.
RS485
The J11 connector (10 pin socket) is directly wired to a DB9 female connector placed on the rear panel of the
apparatus. This communication bus allows to connect the amplifier to the control (Amplifier Control) module
of a high-power transmitter composed by several individual amplifiers. In this case, each amplifier and the
Amplifier Control are connected to the same 4-wires RS485 bus and each of them has a unique address
(which can be set by means of the keys and the display) for correct communication.
In case of single (stand-alone) amplifier, the RS485 connector can be used to interface to the Remote Control
Unit (RCU) made by Elettronika S.r.l. This unit allows to monitor and control the remote transmitter from any
site provided with PSTN or GSM1 phone connection.
Table 2 shows the wiring between the J11 connector on the board and the DB9 female connector on the rear
panel, along with the description of the lines.

TELEMEASURES
The J9 telemeasure connector (10 pins socket) is directly wired on a DB9 female connector placed on the
rear panel. There are input and output digital lines (TTL level) and analog output lines on this connector, which
are used to monitor and control the amplifier by means of a general-purpose remote control system.
The correspondence between the pins of the J9 connector on the board and the DB9 female connector on the
rear panel, as well as the meaning of the various lines, is shown in table 3 below (the directions are in respect
to the micro-controller on the board).

(*) You can select by means of two jumpers on the board (JP1 and JP2) RMS or peak power. If there are two jumpers on pins 1 and 2 of
JP1 and JP2 connectors, RMS power is selected. Otherwise, if there are two jumpers on pins 2 and 3 of the same connectors, peak power
is selected.
Table 3: Description of the telemeasures connector
The input stage of the digital pins has an internal pull-up towards the 5V power supply voltage. To use these
lines it only takes setting a switch to close to earth. When closed, the relevant control (turning on or off) is
enabled and the switch may be open again (impulse controls).
The interlock pin may be used as protection so that the amplifier is switched off when the digital input level is
low. It is possible to use several serially connected switches to make an interlock chain. Usually all switches
are closed and the interlock level is low, thus the amplifier is on. If even only one of the switches is open, the
55
level of the interlock signal becomes high (this line has a pull-up towards the +5V power supply voltage as
well) and the interlock protection activates switching off the amplifier. Note that in case the interlock protection
is not used, the pin 4 of the DB9 telemeasure connector and the earth pin (pin 5) must be short circuited.
Otherwise it is possible to disable the monitoring of the interlock chain from menu (see user manual).
Figure 2 shows a typical usage for the digital input signals to turn on and off the amplifier and for the interlock
alarm.
Figure 2: Usage of the digital input signals of the telemeasures connector
AGC / EXCITER
The connector called J10, as the telemeasures connector and the RS485 bus, is wired to a DB9 female
connector placed on the rear panel of the amplifier. This connector allow the implementation of an automatic
gain control between an exciter and the amplifier. A voltage signal related to the forward output power
supplied by the amplifier is provided through two pins of the AGC connector. Connecting one of these to the
relevant input pin of the exciter, this can pursuit a given voltage level, so that the output power is always
constant. In order to avoid that, in case of an alarm decreasing the forward power, the exciter increases its
output level due to the AGC, thus damaging the amplification stages, the connector is provided with two
digital output lines called AGC Alarm. Under alarm conditions, this lines are brought by the micro-controller
at a low level, so that the exciter can stop the AGC.
Table 4 shows the connection between the J10 connector on the board and the DB9 connector on the rear
panel, along with the description of each pin (the direction of the pin is referred to the position of the microcontroller on the board).

RS232
The DB9 female connector on the front panel is an external communication RS232 serial port, through which
a PC can be connected directly to the amplifier in order to perform operations such as the remote control (by
means of an adequate software2) and the update of the microcontroller firmware.
The used communication protocol is asynchronous, at a 19200bps speed, 1 start bit, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit,
no parity. No hardware flow control is used. The connector is DCE type and the pin used are shown in Table
5.

MISCELLANEOUS
The J2 (called AUX), J4, J5 and J17 connectors are not used and are there only for future updates. The SW1
dip-switches are partially used for the configuration of the correct mode for the micro-controller. The other
switches are not used. It is important that the position of the dip-switches is left unchanged, because changing
it may set a wrong mode for the micro-controller, affecting the work of the whole amplifier.
For more information about this application contact the distributor of the manufacturer.

FIRMWARE UPDATE
The microcontroller is provided with a built-in Flash memory containing the firmware. The firmware can be
updated with a later version without removing the apparatus from the rack and/or replacing the chip.
To upgrade it, connect a PC to the RS232 socket on the front panel of the apparatus by means of a cable
DB9 male - DB9 female (pin-to-pin).
Launch on the PC the EKAFlash application, select the serial port in use on the PC, choose the update file by
pressing the “...” key and click on Download button.
Eventually, turn off the amplifier from the main switch and then turn it on again. The upgrade of the firmware
begins on the EKAFlash window. Fifure 3 shows this window while a firmware is being updated.

TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION
The output filter mod. 06673 is made up of a 3 resonators bandpass filter and two notches. It can be tuned on
all the channels of the UHF TV band (470 - 862MHz) and according to all worldwide standards (4.5 6.5MHz intercarrier). The bandpass section is composed by the three middle resonators, while the two
resonators apart are the notches. The filter is symmetrical; therefore, the choice of the lowest and the hightest
notch is indifferent.
The bandwidth regulation is accomplished by varying the insertion of the two Post Rods, which are located
between the bandpass resonators; the insertion of the Post Rods increases the bandwidth. In order to execute
this regulation it is necessary to loosen every lock nut by means of a n. 12 pipe key.
The input/output couplings are regulated by means of the two shafts (Coupling Stub) opposite to each connector.
The regulation is carried out with n. 8 flat key, considering that when the operating flattenings are parallel to the
longer side of the filter the coupling is maximum, otherwise if orthogonal the coupling is minimum.
The frequency response symmetry is determined by the insertion of the previously mentioned shafts; these
shafts can be set after loosening the relevant clamps with a pipe wrench n. 16. Once locked, these clamps set
out also the twist friction of the couplings.
TUNING INSTRUCTIONS
The advised tuning sequence is the following:
1. Set the instrument state as follows:
• C.F. = (V.C. + S.C.) / 2
• SPAN = INTERCARRIER * 5
• TRANSMISSION SCALE = 5dB/div.
• REFLECTION SCALE = 5dB/div.
(E.G. 27,5MHz std. B/G)
2. Preset the Coupling Stubs and the bandwidth (Posts ), measuring them from the extremity to the filter’s
body, according to the following table:

3.Tune the bandpass section on the required channel, and match input and output until a correct response is
achieved. During this step, the tunings of the two notches shall be kept well far from the bandpass response.
Regulate the bandwidth at -24dB to the ends of span (E. g. std. G: BW (-24dB) = 27,5MHz). The input/
output couplings may influence the external resonators; therefore, it will be necessary to repeatedly fix the
formers after the latters in small steps. The frequency response must be centered, with the same attenuation
values at both sides of the screen.
4. Tune the two notches to P.V. - INTERCARRIER and P.A. + INTERCARRIER frequencies. This will vary
the response and matching. Adjust the response acting on the bandpass tunings.
5. Improve the calibration alternatively acting on two sides of the filter according to this sequence:
• regulate the couplings;
• re-tune notches if they have to be moved;
• re-tune the bandpass resonatoes.
6. Execute the sequence in small steps aiming to improve the matching. Check the response symmetry, and
correct it if needed according to the following criterion: if the lowest notch is much more emphasized than
the highest one it is necessary to insert the Coupling Stubs, otherwise if the hightest notch is more emphasized
than the lowest one it is necessary to extract the Coupling Stubs.
7. At the end of the tuning process, lock the trim points (Posts and Coupling Stubs) and assemble the coupling
protection caps on the filter.
