Circuit Description
The
VX-2R
consists of a MAIN-UNIT, a FILTER-UNIT, a
SW-UNIT, and a VCO-UNIT. The MAIN-UNIT contains
the receiver front end, IF circuit, PLL circuit, the CPU,
audio ICs, and the power circuitry for the LCD. The FIL-
TER-UNIT contains the CTCSS/DCS Encoder/Decoder cir-
cuit. The SW-UNIT contains the TX power amplifier cir-
cuit and power switching circuits. The VCO-UNIT con-
tains the transmit/receive local signal oscillator and trans-
mit modulator circuit.
Receiver Signal Flow
The
VX-2R
includes four receiver front ends, each opti-
mized for a particular frequency range and mode combi-
nation.
(1) Triplexer
Signals between 0.5 and 540 MHz received at the antenna
terminal pass through a first low-pass filter composed of
L1053, L1056, C1300, and C1302.
Received 430-MHz signals, after passing through a low-
pass filter, are fed to the UHF T/R switch circuit composed
of diode switch
D1057
(
RLS135
) and
D1059
(
1SV307
).
Received 145-MHz signals, after passing through a low-
pass filter, are fed to the VHF T/R switch circuit composed
of diode switch
D1058
(
RLS135
) and
D1060
(
1SV307
).
(2) 145-MHz Band and 76-300MHz Reception
Received signals between 140 and 150 MHz pass through
the Triplexer circuit, a low-pass filter/high-pass filter cir-
cuit, VHF T/R switch circuit, and protector diode
D1002
(
1SS362
) before additional filtering by a band-pass filter
prior to application to RF amplifier
Q1005
(
2SC5555
). The
amplified RF signal is passed through a band-pass filter
to first mixer
Q1014
(
2SC5555
). Meanwhile, the first lo-
cal signal for the VHF band from the VCO-UNIT is am-
plified by
Q1025
(
2SC5374
) and applied through diode
T/R switch
D1041
(
DAN222M
) to mixer
Q1014
(
2SC5555
)
as the first local signal.
The 47.25-MHz intermediate frequency product of the
mixer is delivered to the IF circuit.
The TUNE voltage from the CPU is amplified by DC am-
plifier
Q1016
(
NJU7007
) and applied to varactors
D1020
(
1SV325
),
D1021
(
1SV325
),
D1022
(
HVC369
),
D1023
(
1SV325
),
D1024
(
1SV325
),
D1025
(
HVC369
),
D1034
(
1SV325
), and
D1035
(
1SV325
) in the variable frequency
band-pass filters. By changing the electrostatic capacitance
of the varactors, optimum filter characteristics are pro-
vided for each specific operating frequency.
(3) 435-MHz Band and 300-540MHz Reception
Received signals between 430 and 450 MHz pass through
the Triplexer circuit, a low-pass filter/high-pass filter cir-
cuit, UHF T/R switch circuit, and protector diode
D1001
(
1SS362
) before additional filtering by a band-pass filter
prior to application to RF amplifier
Q1004
(
2SC5555
). The
amplified RF signal is passed through a band-pass filter,
RF amplifier
Q1008
(
2SC5555
), and another band-pass
filter to first mixer
Q1013
(
2SC5555
). Meanwhile, the first
local signal for the UHF band from the VCO-UNIT is
amplified by
Q1024
(
2SC5374
) and applied through di-
ode T/R switch
D1040
(
HN2D01FU
) to mixer
Q1013
(
2SC5555
) as the first local signal.
The 47.25-MHz intermediate frequency product of the
mixer is delivered to the IF circuit.
The TUNE voltage from the CPU is amplified by DC am-
plifier
Q1016
(
NJU7007
) and applied to varactors
D1018
,
D1019
,
D1032
, and
D1033
(all
HVC358
) in the variable
frequency band-pass filters. By changing the electrostatic
capacitance of the varactors, optimum filter characteris-
tics are provided for each specific operating frequency.
(4) 0.5-76 MHz Reception
Received signals between 0.5 and 76 MHz pass through
the Triplexer circuit, a low-pass filter circuit, T/R switch
circuit, and protector diode
D1003
(
1SV307
) before addi-
tional filtering by a band-pass filter prior to application to
RF amplifier
Q1009
(
2SC5555
). The amplified RF signal
is passed through the band-pass filter to first mixer
Q1015
(
2SC5555
). Meanwhile, the first local signal for the BC/
SW band from the VCO-UNIT is amplified by
Q1026
(
2SC5374
) and fed to mixer
Q1015
(
2SC5555
) as the first
local signal.
The 47.25-MHz intermediate frequency product of the
mixer is delivered to the IF circuit.
The TUNE voltage from the CPU is amplified by DC am-
plifier
Q1016
(
NJU7007
)
and applied to varactors
D1026
(
HVR100
) in the variable frequency band-pass filters. By
changing the electrostatic capacitance of the varactors, op-
timum filter characteristics are provided for each specific
operating frequency.
(5) 540 - 999 MHz Reception
Received signals between 540 and 999 MHz pass through
a high-pass filter circuit and T/R switch
D1005
(
1SV271
)
prior to application to RF amplifier
Q1002
(
2SC5277
). The
amplified RF signal is passed through a band-pass filter
to first mixer
Q1012
(
2SC5277
). Meanwhile, the first lo-
cal signal for the UHF band from the VCO-UNIT is am-
plified by
Q1024
(
2SC5374
) and applied through diode
T/R switch
D1040
(
HN2D01FU
) to mixer
Q1012
(
