5. Frequency Synthesizer Unit
5-1. Frequency synthesizer
The frequency synthesizer consists of the VCXO (X1), VCO
(A1), PLL IC(IC14) and buffer amplifiers.
The VCXO generates 16.8MHz. The frequency stability is
1.5ppm within the temperature range of -30 to +60˚C. The
frequency tuning and modulation of the VCXO are done to
apply a voltage to pin 1 of the VCXO. The output of the VCXO
is applied to pin 8 of the PLL IC.
The TK-285’s VCO consists of 2VCO and covers a dual
range of the 261.85~294.85MHz (K,E), 284.85~314.85MHz
((N)M) and the 218~250MHz (K,E), 240~270MHz ((N)M).
T h e V C O g e n e r a t e s 2 6 1 . 8 5 ~ 2 9 4 . 8 5 M H z ( K , E ) ,
284.85~314.85MHz ((N)M) for providing to the first local signal
in receive. In TX, the pin 3 of the VCO goes low and the VCO
generates 218~250MHz (K,E), 240~270MHz ((N)M).
The output of the VCO is amplified by the buffer amplifier
(Q16) and routed to the pin 5 of the PLL IC. Also the output of
the VCO is amplified by the buffer amplifier (Q18) and routed
to the next stage according to T/R switch (D9, D23).
The PLL IC consists of a prescaler, fractional divider,
reference divider, phase comparator, charge pump. This PLL
IC is fractional-N type synthesizer and performs in the 40, 50
or 60kHz reference signal which is eighth of the channel step
(6.25kHz). The input signal from the pins 5 and 8 of the PLL IC
is divided down to the 50kHz and compared at phase
comparator. The pulsed output signal of the phase comparator
is applied to the charge pump and transformed into DC signal
in the loop filter (LPF). The DC signal is applied to the pin 1 of
the VCO and locked to keep the VCO frequency constant.
PLL data is output from DT (pin 75). CP (pin 19) and EP
(pin 47) of the microprocessor (IC19). The data are input to
the PLL IC when the channel is changed or when transmission
is changed to reception and vice versa.

The output signal from the summing amplifier passes
through the D/A converter (IC8) again and goes to the VCO
modulation input.
The other output signal from the summing amplifier passes
through the D/A converter (IC8) again for the BAL adjustment,
and the buffer amplifier (IC1 : 2/2), and goes to the VCXO
modulation input.

4-2. Drive and Final amplifier
The signal from the T/R switch (D9 is on) is amplified by
drive amplifier (Q20) to 30mW.
The output of the drive amplifier is amplified by the RF power
amplifier (IC100) to 5.0W (1W when the power is low). The RF
power amplifier consists of two stages MOS FET transistor.
The output of the RF power amplifier is then passed through
the harmonic filter (LPF) and antenna switch (D12 and D401
is on) and applied to the antenna terminal.
4-3. APC circuit
The APC circuit always monitors the current flowing through
the RF power amplifier (IC100) and keeps a constant current.
The voltage drop at R244, R246 and R248 is caused by the
current flowing through the RF power amplifier and this voltage
is applied to the differential amplifier (IC23 1/2).
IC23(2/2) compares the output voltage of IC23(1/2) with the
reference voltage from IC8, and the output of IC23(2/2) controls
the VGG of the RF power amplifier to make the both voltages
to same voltage.
The change of power high/low is carried out by the change
of the reference voltage. Q22,23 and 25 are turned on in
transmit and the APC circuit is active.
