1200 TX-RX Unit Frequency Configuration

The 1200 MHZ unit incorporates a digital variable
frequency oscillator (VFO) thatfreely can selecta channel
step of 10. 12.5, 20,or 25 kHz with a PLL synthesizer
system.

The frequency in the receive signal channel is mixed
with a frequency of 12003 to 1240.20 MHZ obtained
when a first local oscillation frequency of 600.15 to
620.145 MHz is multiplied by 2 to produce a fist

intermediate frequency of 59.7 MHz. This frequency is
then mixed with a second local oscillation frequency of
59.245 MHz to produce a second intermediate
frequency of 455 kHz. This is called a double-conversion
system.

The signal in the transmission channel is oscillated
and frequency-divided by a PLL circuit,then multiples
the frequency of 630 to 649.995 MHz by two to
produce a frequency of 1260 to 1299.99 MHz. This
signal is amplified by a straight amplifier. then

1200 TX-RX Unit Receive Signal Channel

0 Outline

The received signal from an antenna is passed
through a low-pass filter in the transmission final stage
and sent through a transmission/reception selection
diode switch to the receiving front end. The signal is
then amplified to high frequencies by a microwave
GaAs (gallium arsenidel FET and sent to a dielectric
filter. The unwanted components of the signal are
eliminated by a microwave transistor in another stage
and the dielectric filter. The resultant signal is input to
the first mixer. The front end block is matched by a
microstrip line to ensure high sensitivity and high
reliability. A GaAs FET is used in the first mixer to
obtain a good two-signal characteristic. This signal is
mixed with the first local signal froma PLL circuit
by the first mixer and converted to a first intermediate
frequency of 59.7 MHZ. The unwanted near-by signal
components are eliminated by a two-stage MCF. The

resultant signal is produced as a first intermediate-
frequency signal.

The first intermediate-frequency signal is amplified
and input to FM IF HlC lC2 (KCD04). This signal is then
mixed with a second local oscillation frequency of
59.245 kHz to produce a second intermediate
frequency of 455 kHz. The intermediate-frequency
signal is passed through a ceramic filter to obtain
a sharp characteristic. The signal is then input to an
HlC again. amplified, then demodulated and output
from the HIC.

0 Signal-strength meter
The signal-strength meter output voltage of FM lF
HIC IC2 (KCD04) is supplied to the control unit.

I Shift-register circuit

The F8, CK, and DT serial data from the control unit
are sent to |C5 (BU4094BF) to perform the control
operation outlined in the following table:

DIGITAL CONTROL UNIT
0 OUTLINE

The digital control unit consists of the panel unit which
comprises the keys, rotary encoder circuit and display
circuit, as well as the control unit which comprises the
reset backup circuit, the DTMF circuit, the microphone
key input circuit, the dimmer circuit, etc.

- DATA COMMUNICATION CIRCUIT OF THE PANEL
CONTROL UNIT
Figure 26 shows the data communication circuit of
the panel control unit, So is the serial data output, SI is
the serial data input, and an inverter is located between
them to protect the ports of the microprocessor.
The data communication system is asynchronous,
and a communication rate of 31250bps is realized.
Since the connection is checked once every 0.5 ser
condby the microprocessor of the control unit side, the
power turns OFF when the panel unit is removed.

INITIALIZATION
- SYSTEM RESET
The POWER ON CLEAR function works automatical-
ly and all logics are initialized in this lC (S-SEZOCF) when
the power is turned ON. The system is reset because the
POWER ON CLEAR bit (D2 of the CNT2 register) is stuck

at "1".

o SYSTEM RESET

All logics are initialized when the SYSCR bit is set to
"1". When cancelling the reset, SCK falls down after
the build-up of CS, as shown in Figure 27.
