VX-4500/-4600 Series VHF FM Transceiver Service Manual
1. Circuit Configuration by Frequency
The receiver is a double-conversion superheterodyne with a first
intermediate frequency (IF) of 50.85 MHz and a second IF of
450 kHz. Incoming signal from the antenna is mixed with the
local signal from the VCO/PLL to produce the first IF of 50.85
MHz. This is then mixed with the 50.4 MHz second local oscil-
lator output to produce the 450 kHz second IF. This is detected
to give the demodulated signal. The transmit signal frequency
is generated by the PLL VCO and modulated by the signal from
the microphone. It is then amplified and sent to the antenna.
2. Receiver System
2-1. Front-end RF amplifier
Incoming RF signal from the antenna is delivered to the RF
Unit and passes through the Low-pass filter, Undesired frequen-
cies are removed by the varactor diode tuned band-pass filter
consisting of diodes
D1013 , D1015 , D1022 , & D1023
(
all
HVC327C
) and Coils L1012 & L1013, and capacitors C1090,
C1095, C1105, C1107, C1116, & C1117. The passed signal is
amplified by
Q1021 (
2SC3356
) and moreover cuts animage
frequency with the band pass filter consisting of Coils L1012,
L1015, L1018, & L1033, and capacitors C1130, C1135, C1151,
C1156, C1173, C1181, C1182, C1197, C1205, C1217, & C1233.
The filtered RF signal is then delivered to the first Mixer.
2-2. First Mixer
The 1st mixer consists of Q1040
(
AK1220
)
. Buffered output
from the VCO is amplified by Q1026 (
2SC5226
) to provide a
pure first local signal between 184.85 and 224.85 MHz for in-
jection to the first mixer. The output IF signal is sent to the
crystal filter. The IF signal then passes through monolithic crystal
filter XF1001 (± 5.5 kHz BW) to strip away all but the desired
signal.
2-3. IF Amplifier
The first IF signal is amplified by Q1049 (
2SC5226
) . The
amplified first IF signal is applied to FM IF subsystem IC Q1054
(
NJM2591V
) which contains the second mixer, second local
oscillator, limiter amplifier, noise amplifier, and S-meter am-
plifier. The signal from reference oscillator X1002 is multiplied
3 times in
Q1054
(
NJM2591V
)
. It is mixed with the first IF
signal and becomes the second IF signal of 450 kHz. The sec-
ond IF then passes through the ceramic filter CF1002 (for wide
channels) or CF1001 and CF1003 (for narrow channels) to strip
away unwanted mixer products and remove amplitude varia-
tions in the 450 kHz IF before detection of the speech by the
ceramic discriminator CD1001.
Circuit Description
2-4. Audio amplifier
Detected signal from Q1054 (
NJM2591V
) is delivered to
Q1010
(
FQ0801
)
and is output by Q1010
(
FQ0801
)
pin 17
through the band pass filter. When the optional unit is installed,
Q1010
(
FQ0801
)
is made "OFF" and the AF signal from Q1010
(
FQ0801
) pin 21 goes to the optional unit and returns to Q1010
(
FQ0801
)
pin 20 from the optional unit. When the optional
unit is not installed, Q1010 (
FQ0801
) is made "ON" and the
signal goes through Q1010
(
FQ0801
)
pin 20/21. The signal is
stored in the AF volume via AF mute and the de-emphasis in-
side
Q1010
(
FQ0801
)
. The AF volume is controlling Q1010
(
FQ0801
) by the CPU. After that, it enters AF power amplifier
Q1003
(
TDA1519CTH
)
after passing AF volume. The output
of Q1003 (
TDA1519CTH
) drives a speaker (it chooses the
external SP or internal SP in J1001).
2-5. Squelch Circuit
There are 16 levels of squelch setting from 0 to 15. The level 0
means open squelch. The level 1 means the threshold setting
Level and level 15 means tight squelch. From 1 to 14 is estab-
lished in the middle of threshold and tight. The bigger figure is
nearer the tight setting. The level 16 becomes setting of carrier
squelch.
2-5-1. Noise Squelch
The noise squelch circuit is composed of the band pass filter of
Q1054
(
NJM2591V
)
, noise amplifier Q1060
(
2SC4617
)
, and
noise detector D1048 , D1052 ( both
DA221
) . When a carrier
isn't received, the noise ingredient which goes out of the de-
modulator
Q1054 (
NJM2591V
) is amplified in Q1060
(
2SC4617
)
through the band pass filter Q1054
(
NJM2591V
)
,
is detected to DC voltage with D1048 and D1052 ( both
DA221
) ,
and is inputted to pin 15 the A/D port of the Q1041
(
LC88F52H0A
) CPU. When a carrier is received, the DC volt-
age becomes "LOW" because the noise is compressed. When
the detected voltage to CPU is "HIGH", the CPU stops AF out-
put with
Q1010
(
FQ0801
)
"OFF". When the detected voltage
is low, the CPU makes Q1010 (
FQ0801
) "ON" and the AF
signal is output.
2-5-2. Carrier Squelch
Pin 14 (A/D port) of Q1047 (
NJM2904V
) CPU detects RSSI
voltage output from pin 12 of Q1054
(
NJM2591V
)
, and con-
trols AF output. The RSSI output voltage changes according to
the signal strength of carrier. The stronger signal causes the
RSSI voltage to be higher voltage. The process of the AF signal
control is the same as Noise Squelch. The shipping data is ad-
justed 3 dB higher than squelch tight sensitivity.
