requesting them when you send a unit in for repair,
Clearly describe the difficulty experienced in the
space provided and also note any prior physical dam-
age to the equipment. Include a form in the shipping
container with each unit. Your phone number and
Contact name are very important because there are
times when the technicians have specific questions
that need to be answered in order to completely iden—
tify and repair a problem.
When ramming equipment for repair, it is also a
good idea to use a P0 number or some other reference
number on your paperwork in case you need to call
the repair lab about your unit. These numbers are ref-
erenced on the repair order to make it easier and faster
to locate your unit in the lab.
Return Authorization (RA) numbers are not nec-
essary unless you have been given one by the Field
Service Department. They require RA numbers for
exchange units or if they want to be aware of a spe-
cific problem. If you have been given an RA number,
reference this number on the Faetory Repair Request
Form sent with the unit. The repair lab will then con-

SECTION 2 INSTALLATION
2.1 PRE-INSTALLATION CHECKS
Field alignment should not be required before the
3474 is installed. However, it is still good practice to
check the performance to ensure that no damage
occurred during shipment. Performance tests are
located in Section 6.2.
2.2 INTERFACING WITH DATA EQUIPMENT
2.2.1 DM3474 ONLY
Connector J201 on the data transceiver PC board
provides the interface with the data equipment. This is
a 14-pin female connector with .025" square pins on
0. l " centers (Dupont 76308—114), An interface cable
diagram and pin designations are shown in Figure 2-1.
This cable is not included with the data transceiver.
The following is a general description of the vari-
ous 120] input and output signals.
Pin 1 (Ground) » Chassis ground.
Pin 2 (+7.5V DC Continuous) - This voltage should
be stabilized near +7.5V DC. Variations from +6V to
+9V can change power output as much as 6 dB.
Pin 3 (+7.5V DC Transmit) - This input should be
+7.5V DC in transmit mode only.
Pin 4 (+5V DC Receive Control Line) - This input
should be +5V DC in the receive mode only, 3 0.3 V
DC in Tx, input impedance 2 10k ohms.
Pin 5 (+5V DC Continuous) - This voltage should be
stabilized near +5V DC.
2-l
Pin 6 (TX Input) - Provides a response ofil .5 dB from
DC to 5 kHz. The sensitivity is approximately 7 kHz
deviation per volt RMS. When this input is used, a
temperature compensated 2.5V DC bias is required be-
cause variations in voltage cause the frequency to
change. In addition, the transceiver regulatory compli-
ance must be applied for with the customer supplied
modulation limiting/filter circuit and chassis.
Pin 7 (Synthesizer Lock) - Output from synthesizer
lock detect circuit. Low = unlocked, high = locked.
Pin 8 (Synthesizer Enable) - Latch enable signal. A
rising edge on this input latches the data loaded into
synthesizer 1C U801.
Pin 9 (Synthesizer Data) - Serial data line used for
programming synthesizer lC U801.
Pin 10 (Synthesizer Clock) — Software generated seri»
al clock. Data is valid on the rising edge ofthis signal.
Pin 11 (Carrier Detect) - This output is not used at this
time.
Pin 12 (R551 Output) - The RSSl (Receive Signal
Strength indicator) output provides a voltage that in-
creases in proportion to the strength ofthe RF input
signal.
Pin 13 (Rx Output) - The data output level is 600-
1200 millivnlts P-P (200-400 mV RMS) with a modu‘
lation signal of 1 kHz at 60% of maximum deviation.
The output is DC coupled and referenced to +2.5V DC.
Load impedance should be lOk—lOOk ohms.

SECTION 3 PROGRAMMING
3.1 INTRODUCTION
DM3474 ~ The information in Section 3.2
describes synthesizer programming protocol. This
information can be used as a basis for designing the
synthesizer programming hardware and software
required.
3.2 DM3474 SYNTHESIZER DATA PROTOCOL
Programming of the dividers and the charge
pumps are performed on a 3-1ine bus; SYNTH
ENABLE, SYNTH DATA, AND SYNTH CLK. On
initial power up three 34»bit words are required to
load the 3474 Data Transceiver. After the initial load,
one 32-bit word can be used to change channels.
The SA7025 Synthesizer 1C uses four address
words; D, C, B and A (see Figure 3-4). The C word is
not used in the 3474. The 24- and 32-bit words con-
tain one or four address hits, depending on the address
bits, the data is latched into registers. When the A-
word is loaded, the data ofthese temporary registers is
loaded together with the A-word into the work
registers.
3.2.1 D—WORD
Refer to Figure 3—1,
TCXO Reference Frequency is I7.5 MHz.
Loop Reference Frequency is 50 kHz.
Reference Divide (NR) = 17.5 MHz % 50 kHz
i—O— ecrma or 0010101110 Binary.
__/ ecotmutilllo
The 3474 has frequency resolution of 625 kHz
and 10 kHz. When programming 6.25 kHz frequency
resolution use FM‘OD=8. When programming 10 kHz
frequency resolutlon use 0D=5.
Example:
(FCM) + FMOD = 50 kHz + 8 = 6.25 kHz
(FCM) + FMOD = 50 kHz + 5 = 10 kHz
Where:
FCM 1 Loop Reference Frequency
FMOD = Fractional N Modulus
Since FMC is the same for both 6.25 kHz and
10 kHz the loop dynamics are very similar and the
same loop filter values can be used.
3.2.2 B-WORD
The B-Word is 24-hits long (see Figure 3-2). It
contains the Address. Charge Pump setting factor
(CN), Binary Acceleration factors (CK, CL), and
Prescaler Type (PR).
The Charge Pump Current setting (CN) could be
changed on a channel-by-channel basis for ultimate
rejection of the Fraction N spurious responses close
into the carrier frequency. The 3474 synthesizer has
an adjust (R855) for the fractional compensation cur-
rent. The factory preset value will allow CN to be set
to the following ranges:
Frequency in a Band CN
Lowest TX 86
Highest TX 90
Lowest RX 96
Highest RX 100
The value of CN should be interpolated for fre-
quencies between the band edges. With these recom-
mended values of CN, the transceiver should have the
fractional spurs minimized far below the levels needed
to make ETSI 70 dB adjacent channel RX or TX
specifications.
Example:
Model 3474-530 is a 450-466 MHz transceiver.
458 MHzTXCN=88 01011000 Binary
458 MHz RX CN = 98 01100010 Binary
3.2.3 A-WORD
The A-Word must be sent last (see Figure 3-3).
The A-Word contains new data for the loop dividers
and is programmed for every channeli The A-Word
can be a 24-bit or 32-bit word depending on the state
of the flag LONG in the DWord. The 24-bit woFcl
(A0) is sent ifLONG=0 and the 32-bit word (A1) is
sent if LONG=1. The extra 8-hits in Al arethe CN
charge pum smimd
mime—55:1, but afier that only the A1 word
needs to he sent.

SECTION 4 CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
4.1 GENERAL
4.1.1 INTRODUCTION
The main subassemblies of this transceiver are
the RF board, VCO board, TCXO. A block diagram
of the transceiver is located in Figure 4-1.
The VCO board is enclosed by a metal shield and
soldered directly to the RF board. The VCO is not
serviceable.
The 3474 is available with a reference oscillator
stability of 11.5 PPM. The TCXO (Temperature
Compensated Crystal Oscillator) is soldered directly
to the RF board.
4.1 .2 SYNTHESIZER
The VCO (voltage-controlled oscillator) output
signal is the receiver first injection frequency in the
Receive mode and the transmit frequency in the
Transmit mode. The first injection frequency is 52.95
MHz above the receive frequency. The frequency of
this oscillator is controlled by a DC voltage produced
by the phase detector in synthesizer chip USO].
Channels are selected by programming counters
in USOI to divide by a certain number. This program-
ming is performed over a serial bus formed by the
Synth Clock, Synth Enable, and Synth Data pins of
1201. This programming is performed by user sup-
plied hardware and software (see Section 3)
The frequency stability of the synthesizer in both
the receive and transmit modes is established by the
stability of the reference Oscillator described in the
preceding section. These oscillators are stable over a
temperature range of -30° to +60° C (-22° to +140” F).
4L]
4.1 .3 RECEIVER
The receiver is a double-conversion type with
intermediate frequencies of 52.95 MHZ / 450 kHz.
Two helical bandpass filters reject the image, half IF,
injection, and other unwanted frequencies. A four-
pole crysz filter enhances receiver selectivity
4.1.4 TRANSMITTER
The transmitter produces a nominal RF power
output of 2W adjustable to 500 mW (AXXO) or 500
mW adjustable to 75 mW (with Low Power Kit). Fre-
quency modulation of the transmit signal occurs in the
synthesizer, Transmit audio processing circuitry is
contained in the customer~supplied equipment.
4.2 SYNTHESIZER
4.2. 1 INTRODUCTION
A block diagram of the synthesizer is shown in
Figure 4-1 and a block diagram of Synthesizer IC
U80] is shown in Figure 4-2. As stated previously,
the synthesizer output signal is produced by a VCO
(voltage controlled oscillator). The VCO frequency
is controlled by a DC voltage produced by the phase
detector in USO] . The phase detector senses the phase
and frequency of the two input signals and causes the
VCO control voltage to increase or decrease if they
are not the same. The VCO is then "locked" on fre-
quency.
Programming of the synthesizer provides the data
necessary for the internal prescnler and counters. One
input signal is the reference frequency. This frequency
is produced by the 17.5 MHz reference oscillator
(TCXO). Tire other input signal is the VCO
frequency.

The VCO is formed by Q850, several capacitors
and varactor diodes, and a ceramic resonator. lt oscil-
lates at the transmit frequency in transmit mode and
first injection frequency in the receive mode (approxi-
mately 450 MHZ in transmit and 500 MHz in receive)
Biasing of 0850 is provided by R862, R867 and
R868 An AC voltage divider formed by C859, C861
and C862 initiates and maintains oscillation and also
matches 0850 to the tank circuit. The ceramic resona»
tor is grounded at one end to provide shunt inductance
to the tank circuit.
The VCO frequency is controlled in part by DC
voltage across varactor diodes CR854, CRSSS, CR856
and CR85L As voltage across a reverse-biased varac-
tor diode increases, its capacitance decreases, There-
fore. VCO frequency increases as the control voltage
increases, CR854/CR855 and CR356/CR851 are par-
alleled varactors to divide the capacitance and
improve liniarity. The varactors are biased at 72V to
adjust to the voltage output of U80l. The control line
is isolated from tank circuit RF by choke L85l and
L854 and decoupling capacitor C854. The amount of
frequency change produced by CR854/CR855/CR856/
CR851 is controlled by series capacitor C853,

presents a very high impedance. The capacitive leg is
switched in when in transmit and out when in receive,
When 1201, pin 4 is high in receive, (2834 is
turned off, Q101 is tun-ted on and the collector voltage
goes low, A low on the base of Q102 turns the tran-
sistor on and the regulated +5.5V on the emitter is on
the collector for the receive circuitry. With a low on
the base of Q831 the transistor is off and the collector
is high. With a high on the collector of 0831 and a
low on the emitter of 0834, this reverse biases CR850
for a high impedance.
The capacitive leg is formed by C85], CRBSO,
C852 and C876. When 1201, pin 4 is low in transmit,
Q834 is turned on and a high is on the emitter, QIOl is
turned off and the collector voltage goes high. A high
on the base of Q102 turns the transistor off and the
regulated +5.5V is removed from the receive circuitry.
With a high on the base of Q831 the transistor is on
and the collector is low. With a low on the collector
on831 and a high on the emitter of Q834, this for-
ward biases CRSSO and provides an RF ground
through C851 and C852/C376 are effectively con‘
nected to the tank circuit. This decreases the resonant
frequency of the tank circuit.
4.2.x SYNTHESIZER INTEGRATED CIRCUIT

Inn'oduction
Synthesizer chip USO] is shown in Figure 4-2.
This device contains the following circuits: R (refer-
ence), Fractionalll, NM] and NMZ; phase and lock
detectors, prescaler and counter programming cir-
cuitry. The basic operation was described in Section
4.2. I .
Channelfmgmmming
Frequencies are selected by programming the R.
Fractional-N, NMl and NM2 in U801 to divide by a
certain number. These counters are programmed by a
user supplied programming circuit. More informa-
tion on programming is located in Section 3.
LIKL.LIA IILDL I\|r Il\l w
As previously stated, the counter divide numbers
are chosen so that when the VCO is oscillating on the
correct frequency, the VCO—derived input to the phase
detector is the same frequency as the reference oscilla-
tor-derived frequency.
The VCO frequency is divided by the internal
prescaler and the main divider to produce the input to
the phase detector.

When the synthesizer is locked on frequency, the
SY'NTH LOCK output ofU801, pin 18 (1201, pin 7) is
a high voltage. Then when the synthesizer is
unlocked, the output is a low voltage. Lock is defined
as a phase difference of less than 1 cycle of the
TCXO.
43 RECEIVER CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
4.3.1 HELICAL FILTER (ZZOI), RF AMPLIFIER
(Q201)
Capacitor C201 couples the receive signal from
the antenna switch to helical filter Z201. (The antenna
switch is described in Section 4.4.5.) Z201 is a band-
pass filter tuned to pass only a narrow band of fre-
quencies to the receiver. This attenuates the image
and other unwanted frequencies. The helicals are fac-
tory set and should not be tuned.
Impedance matching between the helical filter
and RF amplifier 0201 is provided by C203, C204
and L201, 0201 amplifies the receive signal to
recover filter losses and also to increase receiver sen-
sitivity. Biasing for (2201 is provided by R201, R202
and R203; and C208/C209 provide RF bypass. CR201
protects the base-emitterjunction of Q201 from exces-
sive negative voltages that may occur during high sig-
nal conditions. Additional filtering of the receive sig-
nal is provided by Z202. L202, and C205 provide
impedance matching between 0201 and 2202. Resis-
tor R204 is used to lower the Q of L202 to make it less
frequency selective.

Part No. 00l-3474-00l
Limiter/Amplifier
The output of 2241/1242 is applied to a limiter-
amplifier circuit in U24l. This circuit amplifies the
450 kHz signal and any noise present; then limits this
signal to a specific value. When the 450 kHz signal
level is high, noise pulses tend to get clipped off by
the limiter; however, when the 450 kHz signal level is
low, the noise passes through. C242, C243 decouple
the 450 kHz signal.
Quadrature Detector
From the limiter stage the signal is fed to the
quadrature detector. An external phase-shift network
connected to pin 8 shifts the phase of one of the detec-
tor inputs 90“ at 450 kHz (all other inputs are
unshifted in phase). When modulation occurs, the fre-
quency of the IF signal changes at an audio rate as
does the phase of the shifted input, The detector,
which has no output with a 90“ phase shifi, converts
this phase shift into an audio signal. L242 is tuned to
provide maximum undistorted output from the detec—
tor, R242 is used to lower the Q of L242. From the
detector the audio and data signal is fed out on pin 9.
Audio/Data Amplifier
The audio/data output of U241 on pin 9 is fed to
the audio amplifier U261. U261 amplifies the
detected audio/data signal and shifis the DC bias level
to 2.5V. The gain is set at approximately 1.5 by
R26l/R262. R263 and R264 provide a 1.9V DC ref-
erence bias voltage. The audio output of U261 is
applied to J201, pin 13.
Receive Si nal Stren h Indicator RSSI
U241, pin 13 is an output for the RSS] circuit
which provides a current proportional to the strength
of the 450 kHz IF signal. The voltage developed
across R241 is applied to 1201, pin 12.
4.4 TRANSMITTER CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
4.4.1 BUFFER (Q85 1)
The output signal is applied to a 50-ohm pad
formed by R851. R852, and R853. This pad provides
attenuation and isolation. Q851 provides amplifica-
CIRCL'I'I DLbCRII’I IUN
tion and also additional isolation between the VCO
and transmitter. BiaSing for this stage is provided by
R854, and decoupling of RF signals is provided by
C852 . Impedance matching with the transmitter is
provided by L501 and C502, and impedance matching
with the receiver is provided by L301, C302,
4.4.2 PRE-DRIVER (Q501), DRIVER (Q521)
Pro-driver Q501 is biased class A by R501 and
R502 and R506. L501 and C502 match Q501 to
0851. C520 and C508 bypass RF from the DC line,
and R503 provides supply voltage isolation. R507 ties
the +7.5V supply to the circuit for high power applica-
tions and R508 ties the circuit to +5V for low power
applications. Impedance matching between 0501
and 0521 is provided by L502, L503 and C511. R504
and C504 provide negative feedback to prevent
oscinllation.
Driver Q521 is biased nearly Class C by R52]
and R522. Impedance matching Willi 0541 is pro-
vided by L521 , C525, C527, L522 and C526.
4.4.3 -5V POWER CONTROL SUPPLY
The 17.5 MHz from the TCXO is coupled
through C902 to Q901. Bias for Q901 is provided by
R903, R904, R901, R902 and R905. C901 and C903
provide RF decoupling. The amplified sigial rectified
by CR901/CR902 to produce 6 -5V DC source. C909
stabilizes the voltage level and C910 and C91] pro-
vide RF decoupling. This -5V source is used in the
transmit power control circuit U542.
4.4.4 FINAL (0541), POWER CONTROL (U542)
Q541 is biased for Class C operation. The output
is matched to the low-pass filter by L541, C552, and
several capacitors. The supply voltage is isolated
from RF by ferrite bead EF541.
Power control is provided by U542. The 5.5V
transmit supply is passed by U542 to power adjust
R542. The other end of R542 is the rectified -5V from
Q901. This negative voltage is required when low
power is used to pinch off 0541 to the required out-
put.

SECTION 5 SERVICING
5.1 GENERAL
5.1.1 PERIODIC CHECKS
This transceiver should he put on a regular main-
tenance schedule and an accurate performance record
maintained. Important checks are receiver sensitivity
and transmitter frequency, modulation, and power out-
put. A procedure for these and other tests is located in
Section 6. It is recommended that transceiver perfor-
mance be checked annually even though periodic
checks are not required by the FCC. During the first
year, make an additional check or two to ensure no
TCXO frequency drifting has occurred.
5.1 .2 SURFACEMOUNTED COMPONENTS
A large number of the components used on the
transceiver board are the surface-mounted type. Since
these components are relatively small in size and are
soldered directly to the PC hoard, care must be used
when they are replaced to prevent damage to the com-
ponent or PC board, Surface—mounted components
should not be reused because they may be damaged by
the unsoldering process.
5.1.3 SCHEMATIC DIAGRAMS AND COMPO-
NENT LAYOUTS
Schematic diagrams and component layouts of
the PC boards used in this transceiver are located in
Section 8. A component Iocator guide is also pro
vided to aid in component location.
5] A REPLACEMENT PARTS LIST
A replacement pans list with all the parts used in
this transceiver is located in Section 7. Parts are listed
alphanumerically according to designator. For infor—
mation on ordering parts, refer to Section 1.8.
5.l.5 TCXO MODULE NOT SERVICEABLE
The 115 PPM TCXO module is not field ser-
viceable. Pan changes require a factory recalibration
to ensure that the oscillator stays within its 11.5 PPM
tolerance.

5.2 SYNTHESIZER SERVICING
5.2.l INTRODUCTION
When there is a synthesizer malfunction, the
VCO is not locked on frequency. When an unlocked
VCO is detected by the lock detector circuit, USOI,
pin l8 goes low (OV).
NOTE.“ The user-supplied circuitry must disabIe the
transmitter and receiver when an out-af-luck condi-
lion is indicated.
When the VCO is unlocked, the fR and fv inputs
to the phase detector are usually not in phase (see Sec-
tion 4.1.2). The phase detector in USOl then causes
the VCO control voltage to go to the high or low end
of its operating range. This in turn causes the VCO to
oscillate at the high or low end of its frequency range.
As shown in Figure 4-1, a loop is formed by
vco 0850, amplifier (2851/0352, and the RF [N of
U801. Therefore, if any of these components begin to
malfunction, improper signals appear throughout the
loop. However, correct operation of the counters can
still be verified by measuring the input and output fre—
quencies to check the divide number.
Proceed as follows to check the synthesizer I/O
signals to determine if it is operating properly.
5.2.2 REFERENCE OSCILLATOR
Check the signal at USOl, pin 8. It should be
17.5 MHz at a level ofapproximately 1.5V P-P. lfthe
TCXO module is defective, it is not serviceable and
must be replaced with a new module as described in
Section 5.1.5.
5.2.3 VCO
Output Level
The output level of Q853 can be measured with
an RF voltmeter or some other type of high impedance
meter. The minimum level afier a power splitter at
RSSI should be -10 dBm.

(Q221)
Refer to the schematic diagram for signal levels
and test points for measuring levels,
5.3.4 RF AND IF AMPLIFIERS, FIRST MIXER
Check the DC voltages shown on the schematic
diagram. If they are normal, inject a signal at the
input and output of each stage using a .01 uF coupling
capacitor. If the stage is producing gain, the injection
level on the input of a stage should be less than that
required on the output to produce the same SINAD at
the receive output.

Camouflage
Check the DC voltage at C815 with a channel
near the center of the band. If the VCO is locked on
frequency, this should be a steady DC voltage near
3V. If it is not locked on frequency, it should be near
the lower or upper end of its range (CV or 5.5V).
QutpuLquueuqt
Check the VCO frequency at R85 1. If the VCO
is locked on frequency, it should be stable on the
transmit channel frequency. If the VCO is not locked
on frequency, the VCO control voltage is probably
near OV or 5.5Vi

CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The low-pass filter consists of L561, C561, L562,
C562, L563, C563 and L564. The filter attenuates
spurious frequencies occurring above the transmit fre-
quency band. The transmit signal is then fed through
the antenna switch to antenna jack JSOl.
4.4.5 ANTENNA SWITCH (CR561, CR562)
The antenna switching circuit switches the
antenna to the receiver in the receive mode and the
transmitter in the transmit mode. In the transmit
mode, +7.5V is applied to L565 and current flows
through diode CR561, L566, diode CR562, and R562/
R563. When a diode is forward biased, it presents a
low impedance to the RF signal; conversely, when it is
reverse biased (or not conducting), it presents a high
impedance (small capacitance) Therefore, when
January 1996
Pan No. 001-3474-001
4-8
CR561 is forward biased, the transmit signal has a
low-impedance path to the antenna through coupling
capacitor C5684
C567, L566. and C570 form a discrete quarter—
wave line. When CR561 is forward biased, this quar-
ter—wave line is effectively AC grounded on one end
by C570, When a quaner-wave line is grounded on
one end, the other end presents a high impedance to
the quarter-wave frequency. This blocks the transmit
signal from the receiver. C569 matches the antenna to
50 ohms in transmit and receive.
ln the receive mode, no power is applied to L565,
so all the diodes are "017“. The receive signal then has
a high-impedance path into the transmitter and a low-
impedance path into the receiver because the quarter-
wave line is not grounded.
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
4.3.2 MIXER (U221), FIRST LO AMPLIFIER
(0301)
First mixer U221 mixes the receive frequency
with the first injection frequency to produce the 52.95
MHz filst IF. Since high-side injection is used, the
injection frequency is 52.95 MHz above the receive
frequency. The RF signal is coupled to the mixer
through C21 1.
The first injection frequency from the VCO is
coupled to the first local oscillator amplifier Q301
through C301. L301 and C302 match 0301 to the
VCO. Bias for 0301 is provided by 1601, R302 and
R303, and C303 decouples RF signals. Impedance
matching to the mixer is provided by L302, R304 and
C304.
4.3.3 AMPLIFIER (Q222), CRYSTAL FILTER
(Z221/Z222), IF AMP (0221)
The output of U221 is coupled to buffer 0222.
C222, R229 and Q222 match the 50 ohm output of
U221. Bias for Q222 is provided by R228 and R229.
The output onZZZ is matched to crystal filter Z221
via L222, C223 and R230. This filter presents a low
impedance to 52.95 MHZ and attenuates the receive,
injection, and other frequencies outside the 52.95
MHz passband.
2221 and 2222 form a Z-section, 4-pole crystal
filter with a center frequency cf52.95 MHz and a -3
dB passband of8 kHz (12.5 kHz BW) or 15 kHz (20/
25 kHz BW). This filter establishes the receiver selec-
tivity by attenuating the adjacent channel and other
signals close to the receive frequency. C232, C224,
and L223 adjust the coupling ofthe filter. L224, C225
and C227 provide impedance matching between the
filter and Q221.
lF amplifier 0221 amplifies the 52.95 MHz IF
signal to recover filter losses and improves receiver
sensitivity. Biasing for Q221 is provided by R222.
R223, R225 and R226 and C228, C229 decouple RF
signals. The output of 0221 Is coupled to the detector
by 12230.

4.3.4 SECOND LO AMP/TRIPLER (0401), SEC-
OND IF FILTER (Q901)
The input frequency to 0401 is 17.5 MHz from
TCXO Y801 coupled through C402. Bias for Q401 is
provided by R401. R402, R403 and R404, C403,
C404 decouple RF from the amplifier. L401, L402,
C405, C406 and C407 pass the third harmonic of the
input (52.5 MHz) to U241, pin 1. The output of the
amplifier is coupled to U241, pin 1 by C241, and
C410 and L404 provided low frequency decoupling.
4.3.5 SECOND MIXER/DETECTOR (U241)
Oscillator and Mixer
As shown in Figure 4-3, U241 contains the sec-
ond oscillator, second mixer, limiter, detector, and
squelch circuitry. The 52.95 MHz IF signal is mixed
with a 52.5 lVfl-lz signal produced by second LO
amplifier (3401 from TCXO Y801.

Second IF Filter
The output of the internal double-balanced mixer
is the difference between 52.95 MHz and 52.5 MHz
which is 450 kHz, This 450 kHz signal is fed out on
pin 3 and applied to second IF filters D41 and 2242.
These filters have passbands of 9 kHz (12.5 kHz BW),
15 kHz (20 kHz BW) or 20 kHz (25 kHz BW) at the
-6 dB points and are used to attenuate wideband noise.
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The -2V applied to the VCO is derived from the
TCXO frequency that is amplified by Q833, rectified
by CRSBl and filtered by C844, C845, C846 and
C847 on the RF board.
The VCO frequency is modulated using a similar
method. The transmit audio/data signal is applied
across varactor diode CRSSZ which varies the VCO
fi'equency at an audio rate. Series capacitors C856/
C870 set the amount of deviation produced along with
CR853 and C858. R854 provides a DC ground on the
anodes of CRSSZ/CR853, and isolation is provided by
R852 and C855.
The DC voltage across CR853 provides compen-
sation to keep modulation relatively flat over the
entire bandwidth of the VCO. This compensation is
required because modulation tends to increase as the
VCO frequency gets higher (capacitance of CR854/
CRSSS/CRSSG/CRSSI gets lower). CR853 also bal-
ances the modulation signals applied to the VCO and
TCXO. An external voltage from 1201, pin 14 can
also adjust the modulation
The DC voltage applied across CR853 comes
Ii'om the modulation adjust control R810. R811
applies a DC biasing voltage to CR852; C814 pro
vides DC blocking; and C818 attenuates AC signals
applied through R81 l. RF isolation is provided by
C858, R853, C817 and R812.
4.2.3 VCO AND REFERENCE OSCILLATOR
MODULATION
Both the VCO and reference oscillator (TCXO)
are modulated in order to achieve the required fre-
quency response. If only the VCO was modulated, the
phase detector in U801 would sense the frequency
change and increase or decrease the VCO control volt»
age to counteract the change (especially at the lower
audio frequencies), If only the reference oscillator
frequency is modulated. the VCO frequency would
not change fast enough (especially at the higher audio
frequencies). Modulating both VCO and reference
oscillators produces a flat audio response. Potentiom-
eter R810 sets the VCO modulation sensitivity so that
it is equal to the reference oscillator modulation
sensitivity

4.2.4 CASCODE AMPLIFIERS (Q85I/0852)
The output signal on the collector of Q850 is cou-
pled by L861/C864 to buffer amplifier QSS 1/0852.
This is a shared-bias amplifier which provides ampli-
fication and also isolation between the VCO and the
stages which follow. The signal is direct coupled
from the collector of QSSZ to the emitter of QBSI.
The resistors in this circuit provide biasing and stabili—
zation, and C865 and C866 are bypass capacitors,
4.2.5 AMPLIFIER (0853)
Amplifier Q853 provides amplification and isola-
tion between the VCO and receiver and transmitter.
C868 provides matching between the amplifiers.
Bias for 0853 is provided by R87] , R872 and R874.
Inductor L856 and capacitor C873 provide impedance
matching on the output.
4.2.6 VOLTAGE FILTER (Q832)
Q832 is a capacitance multiplier to provide filter-
ing of the 4.6V supply to the VCO. R836 provides
transistor bias and C834 provides the capacitance that
is multiplied. If a noise pulse or other voltage change
appears on the collector. the base voltage does not
change significantly because of C834. Therefore,
base current does not change and transistor current
remains constant. CR832 decreases the charge time of
C834 when power is turned on. This shortens the
startup time ofthe VCO. C841, C840 and C855 are
RF decoupling capacitors.
4.2.7 VCO FREQUENCY SHIFT (0831)
The VCO must be capable of producing frequen-
cies from approximately 403-56495 MHz to produce
the required receive injection and transmit frequen»
cies. Iftl‘us large ofa shift was achieved by varying
the VCO control voltage, the VCO gain would be
undesirably high. Therefore, capacitance is switched
in and out of the tank circuit to provide a coarse shift
in frequency.
This switching is controlled by the T/R pin shift
on1201, pin 4, Q8] l/Q834 and pin diode CR850.
When a pin diode is forward biased, it presents a vary

PROGRAMMING
3.3 RECEIVE T0 TRANSMIT SEQUENCE
Refer to Figure 3-5.
1. Synthesizer is loaded (B and A 24-Bit words or one
long 32-bit A-Word).
2. The state ofthe SRCL line does not have to be
changed until the last bit is sent, However, RX will
cease as soon as it is changed.
3 The SYNTH ENABLE line should be held HIGH
for 2 to 3 milliseconds afier the last word is sent.
This puts the frequency synthesizer in a SPEEDUP
MODE and slightly improves lock times.
4, Afier the last word is strobed in, 7 milliseconds
(worst case) should elapse before 75 TX is turned
ON. This allows the synthesizer to come within 1
kHz of the desired frequency.

Dekey is a length of time to allow the TX to
power down while the synfltesizer is still in look. This
is needed to meet ETS] (European Telecommunica—
tions Standards Institute) adjacent power specifica-
tions Dekey is approximately 3 ms in length. The
75 TX should be ramped or optimally filtered in such
a way as to reduce the Sinx/x power spreading.
Speedup will slightly improve lock times and is l to
2 ms,
3.4 TRANSMIT TO RECEIVE SEQUENCE
Refer to Figure 3-6.
L 7.5 TX is turned OFF For best TX adjacent chan-
nel power performance this could be shaped.
2. The synthesizer load process could begin slightly
before, but when the last bit is strobed in the synthe-
sizer it will become unlocked. For ETSI specs, the
TX should be turned OFF "on-Ii'equency".
3. The SRCL line should switch from low to high
AFTER the 75 TX is switched. The SRCL not only
turns the RX circuits on but also Pin Shifis the
VCO,
4. For quickest lock times the SYNTH ENABLE line
on the last load word should be held high for 2 to 3
milliseconds It MUST NOT be lefi high as the syn-
thesizer in the SPEEDUP mode has poor noise per-
formance and would degrade the RX performance.

IlVIPORTAN T
If the receiver is to be operated at 510-512 MHz (-810), a spurious condition may occur to degrade the
receiver sensitivity 2 to 3 dB. Iflhis degradation IS unacceptable, the synthesizer can be reprogrammed to a com-
parison frequency (FCM) of31l25 kHz (so that a multiple of this would not be 52.95 MHz) and a modulus
(FMOD/ of 5 with a reference divide (NR) of 5 60 These parameters place the spurious at harmonics 0/3125 kHz
(instead of 50 kHz) outside the passband nflhe IF fillers where the sensitivity is not degraded

PROGRAMMING
The Fractional-N increment (NF) is a 3-bit word
that is channel dependent. NF is used to program the
sub-channels below the 50 kHz Loop Reference fre-
quency. FCM = 50 kHz and if FMOD = 8, then the
Fractional-N increment is: 50 kHz + 8 = 6.25 kHz
To program an 1875 kHz channel:
NF = l8.75 kHz+ 6.25 kHz
NF=3
NMI and NM2 are calculated as follows:
N=(NMl +2)x64+NM2x65
Where:
N = total division ratio
NM] = Number of main divider cycles when
prescaler modulus equals 64
NM2 = Number of main divider cycles when
prescaler modulus equals 65

Example:
Calculate NMl and NM2 to Receive 454.500 MHz
