4-5 OTHER CIRCUITS
4-5-1 COMPANDER CIRCUIT (MAIN UNIT)
IC-F610 series have compander circuit which can improve S/
N ratio and become wide dynamic range. The circuit is com-
posed in the compander IC (IC14).
(1) IN CASE OF RECEIVING
The demodulated AF signals from the FM IF IC (IC1, pin
9) are applied to the amplifi er section in the compander IC
(IC14, pin 3), and then pass through the low-pass fi lter and
high-pass fi lter sections to suppress unwanted signals. The
fi ltered signals are applied to the expander circuit to expand
AF signals.
The output signals from the compander IC (IC14, pin 38) is
applied to the AF amplifi er circuit after amplifi ed at the ampli-
fi er section.
(2) IN CASE OF TRANSMITTING
The audio signals from the microphone amplifier (FRONT
UNIT; IC2) are applied to the compander IC (IC14, pin 12)
via the D/A converter (IC6, pins 9, 10). The signals are am-
plified at the amplifier section, and are then applied to the
compressor circuit to compress the audio signals. The sig-
nals are pass through the low-pass fi lter and high-pass fi lter
sections and are then applied to the limiter amplifi er section
after being passed through the high-pass fi lter section.
The filtered signals pass through the splatter filter section,
and are then applied to the modulation circuit (D18) via the
PM/FM switch (IC15, pins 1, 6, 7) and D/A converter (IC6,
pins 21, 22).
