  • Page 9: Theory Of Operation

    Chapter 2 THEORY OF OPERATION Introduction This chapter provides a detailed theory of operation for the radio RF circuits. Refer to the relevant section of this manual for details of the operation of the Controller Circuits. Lowband Transmitter (Refer to Figure 2-1 and the Lowband Transmitter schematic diagram) The Lowband transmitter consists of the following basic circuits : Power amplifier (PA).

  • Page 10: Antenna Switch

    THEORY OF OPERATION The LDMOS PA is capable of supplying an output power of 8W with an input signal of 0.3W. The current drain is typically 2000 mA while operating in the frequency range of 29.7 - 50 MHz. The final stage gate is bias by a voltage from PCIC pin 24.

  • Page 11: Lowband Receiver

    Lowband Receiver Lowband Receiver (Refer to Figure 2-2 and the Receiver Front End and Receiver Back End schematic diagrams) The Lowband receiver consists of a front end, back end, and automatic gain control circuits. Detailed descriptions of these stages are contained in the paragraphs that follow. Antenna Lowpass Lowpass...

  • Page 12: Receiver Back-End

    THEORY OF OPERATION Receiver Back-End (Refer to the Receiver Back End schematic diagram) The output of crystal filter FL301 is connected to the input of IF amplifier transistor U301. Components L303 and C348 and R301 form the termination for the crystal filter and the signal is coupled to one gate of U301 by C303.

  • Page 13: Frequency Generation Circuit

    Frequency Generation Circuit Frequency Generation Circuit (Refer to Figure 2-3, the Synthesizer and Voltage controlled Oscillator schematic diagrams) The frequency generation circuit is composed of Low Voltage Fractional-N synthesizer U205 and discrete RX VCO, TX VCO and buffers as well other supporting circuitry. The synthesizer block diagram illustrates the interconnect and support circuitry used in the region.

  • Page 14: Synthesizer

    THEORY OF OPERATION Synthesizer (Refer to Figure 2-4 and the Synthesizer schematic diagram) The Fractional-N synthesizer, shown in Figure 2-4, uses a 17.0 MHz crystal (Y201) to provide a reference for the system. Along with being used in the LVFracN, the 17.0 MHz signal is provided at pin 19 of U205 for use by the ASFIC and LVZIF.

  • Page 15: Voltage Control Oscillator (Vco)

    Frequency Generation Circuit Voltage Controlled Oscillator (VCO) (Refer to the Voltage Controlled Oscillator schematic diagram) 4.2.1 Receive VCO The receive VCO is a Colpitts type design and using two active devices in parallel, Q202 and Q204. The oscillator is powered off of the 4.3 volt super filter supply when the AUX3 line goes low. The oscillator operates from 139 to 152 MHz for range 1 and 145 to 160 MHz for range 2.
