TX AMPLIFIER CIRCUITS (VHF BAND)The output signal of VHF VCO (Q111, D145–148) is passedthrough the LO SW (D155), LPF and ATT, then applied tothe drive AMP (Q25) via the limiter (D29), to obtain adequateinput level for the power AMP (power MOS-FET module;IC3).The amplifi ed TX signal is power-amplifi ed to 50 W (approx.;25 W for [TPE] ver.) of output power (max.) by the powerAMP (IC3).The power-amplified TX signal is passed through the LPFwhich attenuates harmonic components to prescribed level,then applied to the antenna connector via the power detector(D39, 47, 1005), TX/RX SW (D59, 68, 75, 77) and two LPFs.APC CIRCUITS (VHF BAND)A portion of the TX signal from IC3 is rectifi ed at the powerdetector (D39, 47, 1005), and converted into the DC voltagewhich is in proportion to the RF power, and applied to theoperational amplifi er (IC4, pin 6). IC4 is an APC amplifi er forboth of V/UHF bands. The TX power setting voltage “PCON_V” from the D/A converter (IC1) is applied to the pin 5 asa reference. IC4 is rolled as a differential amplifier whichoutputs voltage in inverse proportion to rectifi ed one.When the TX power increased, the rectified voltage alsoincreased, that causes the decrease of output voltage ofdifferential amplifier. The decrease of output voltage ofdifferential amplifi er causes the drop of the gate voltage ofIC3, Thus the TX power maintained to keep stable level.TX AMPLIFIERS (UHF BAND)The output signal of UHF VCO (Q73, D87, 91, 92) is passedthrough the LO SW (D103), HPF and ATT, then applied tothe pre-drive AMP (Q22). The amplifi ed TX signal is appliedto the drive AMP (Q26) via the limiter (D25) and amplifi ed toobtain adequate input level for the power AMP (power MOS-FET module; IC2).The amplifi ed TX signal is power-amplifi ed to 50 W (approx.;25 W for [TPE] ver.) of output power by the power AMP (IC2).The power-amplified TX signal is passed through the LPFwhich attenuates harmonic components to prescribed level,then applied to the antenna connector via the power detector(D42, 52, 1006), TX/RX SW (D30, 53, 61, 62, 177), HPF andLPF.APC CIRCUITS (UHF BAND)A portion of the TX signal from IC2 is rectifi ed at the powerdetector (D42, 52, 1006), and converted into the DC voltagewhich is in proportion to the RF power, and applied to theoperational amplifi er (IC4, pin 2). IC4 is an APC amplifi er forboth of V/UHF bands. The TX power setting voltage “PCON_U” from the D/A converter (IC1) is applied to the pin 3 asa reference. IC4 is rolled as a differential amplifier whichoutputs voltage in inverse proportion to rectifi ed one.When the TX power increased, the rectified voltage alsoincreased, that causes the decrease of output voltage ofdifferential amplifier. The decrease of output voltage ofdifferential amplifi er causes the drop of the gate voltage ofIC2, Thus the TX power maintained to keep stable level.• TX AMPLIFIER AND APC CIRCUITSVHF band TX signal ->D155LO SWLPFATTD29LIMITERQ25DRIVEAMPPWRAM PIC3LPFD39,D47,D1005PWRDETD59,68,75,77TX/RXSWLPFLPFFrom the frequency synthesizercircuitsPREDRIVEQ22D25LIMITERDRIVEAMPQ26PWRAM PIC2LPFD42,52,1006PWRDETD30,53,61,62,177TX/RXSWHPFUHF TX signal ->D103LO SWHPFATTTIC4APCCTRLPCON_UPCON_VTo VHF RX circuitsTo UHF RX circuits4 - 5
