  • Page 7: Safety Information

    This document includes useful information about RF exposure and helpful instructions on how to control RF exposures. Motorola radios are designed and tested to comply with a number of national and international standards and guidelines regarding human exposure to radio frequency electromagnetic energy. This radio complies with IEEE and ICNIRP exposure limits for occupational/controlled RF exposure environments at usage factors of up to 50% talk–50% listen.
  • Page 8 Keeping the radio at a proper distance is important since RF exposures decrease with distance from the antenna. For body-worn operation, always place the radio in a Motorola approved clip, holder, holster, case, or body harness for this product. Using Motorola non-approved accessories may result in exposure levels which exceed the occupational /controlled environment RF exposure limits.

  • Page 67: Chapter 2 Theory Of Operation

    Chapter 2 THEORY OF OPERATION Introduction This Chapter provides a detailed theory of operation for the VHF circuits in the radio. Schematic diagrams and board layout diagrams are included in Chapter 4 in this Section of the manual. VHF (146-174MHz) Receiver The VHF receiver covers the range of 146-174 MHz and provides switchable IF bandwidth for use with 20/25/30 kHz or 12.5 kHz channel spacing systems.
  • Page 68: Receiver Front-End

    THEORY OF OPERATION Receiver Front End Incoming RF signals from the antenna are first routed through the harmonic filter and antenna switch, part of the transmitter circuitry, before being applied to the receiver front end. The receiver front end consists of a preselector filter, RF amplifier, an interstage filter, and a double-balanced first mixer.
  • Page 69: Receiver Back-End

    VHF (146-174MHz) Receiver Receiver Back End The receiver back end is a dual conversion design. High IF selectivity is provided by FL51, a 4-pole fundamental mode 44.85 MHz crystal filter with a minimum 3 dB bandwidth of + 6.7 kHz, a maximum 20 dB bandwidth of ±12.5 kHz, and a maximum insertion loss of 3.5 dB.
  • Page 70: Vhf (146-174Mhz) Transmitter

    THEORY OF OPERATION VHF Transmitter The VHF transmitter covers the range of 146-174 MHz. Depending on model, the output power of the transmitter is either switchable on a per-channel basis between high power (5 watts) and low power (1 watt), or is factory preset to 2 watts. The transmitter is divided into four major blocks as shown in Figure 2-2.
  • Page 71: Harmonic Filter

    VHF Transmitter Harmonic Filter The harmonic filter consists of components C130-C136 and L130-L132. The harmonic filter is a seven-pole elliptical low-pass configuration, optimized for low insertion loss, with a 3 dB frequency of approximately 210 MHz and typically less than 0.8 dB insertion loss in the passband. Antenna Matching Network The harmonic filter presents a 50Ω...
  • Page 72: Vhf (146-174Mhz) Frequency Generation Circuitry

    THEORY OF OPERATION VHF Frequency Generation Circuitry The frequency generation system, shown in Figure 2-3, is composed of two circuit blocks, the Fractional-N synthesizer IC U201, the VCO/Buffer IC U251, and associated circuitry. Figure 2-4 shows the peripheral interconnect and support circuitry used in the synthesizer block, and Figure 2-5 details the internal circuitry of the VCOBIC and its interconnections to the surrounding components.
  • Page 73: Fractional-N Synthesizer

    VHF Frequency Generation Circuitry Fractional-N Synthesizer The Fractional-N synthesizer, shown in Figure 2-4, uses a 16.8 MHz crystal (Y201) to provide the reference frequency for the system. External components C201-C203, R202 and D201 are also part of the temperature-compensated oscillator circuit. The dc voltage applied to varactor D201 from U201 pin 25 is determined by a temperature-compensation algorithm within U201, and is specific to each crystal Y201, based on a unique code assigned to the crystal that identifies its temperature characteristics.
  • Page 74: Voltage Controlled Oscillator (Vco)

    THEORY OF OPERATION Voltage Controlled Oscillator (VCO) The VCOBIC (U251), shown in Figure 2-5, in conjunction with the Fractional-N synthesizer (U201) generates RF in both the receive and the transmit modes of operation. The TRB line (U251 pin 19) determines which oscillator and buffer are enabled. A sample of the RF signal from the enabled oscillator is routed from U251 pin 12 through a low pass filter, to the prescaler input of the synthesizer IC (U201 pin 32).

  • Page 113: Chapter 2 Theory Of Operation

    Chapter 2 THEORY OF OPERATION Introduction This Chapter provides a detailed theory of operation for the UHF1 circuits in the radio. Schematic diagrams and board layout diagrams are included in Chapter 4 in this Section of the manual. UHF (403-440MHz) Receiver The UHF receiver covers the range of 403-440 MHz and provides switchable IF bandwidth for use with 20/25/30 kHz or 12.5 kHz channel spacing systems.
  • Page 114: Receiver Front-End

    THEORY OF OPERATION Receiver Front End Incoming RF signals from the antenna are first routed through the harmonic filter and antenna switch, part of the transmitter circuitry, before being applied to the receiver front end. The receiver front end consists of a preselector filter, RF amplifier, an interstage filter, and a double-balanced first mixer.
  • Page 115: Receiver Back-End

    UHF (403-440MHz) Receiver Receiver Back End The receiver back end is a dual conversion design. High IF selectivity is provided by FL51, a 4-pole fundamental mode 44.85 MHz crystal filter with a minimum 3 dB bandwidth of ±6.7 kHz, a maximum 20 dB bandwidth of + 12.5 kHz, and a maximum insertion loss of 3.5 dB.
  • Page 116: Transmitter Power Amplifier

    THEORY OF OPERATION UHF Transmitter The UHF transmitter covers the range of 403-440 MHz. Depending on model, the output power of the transmitter is either switchable on a per-channel basis between high power (4 watts) and low power (1 watt), or is factory preset to 2 watts. The transmitter is divided into four major blocks as shown in Figure 2-2.
  • Page 117: Harmonic Filter

    UHF Transmitter Harmonic Filter The harmonic filter consists of components C122, C136 and L130-L132. The harmonic filter is a seven-pole Chebychev low-pass configuration, optimized for low insertion loss, with a 3 dB frequency of approximately 600 MHz and typically less than 0.8 dB insertion loss in the passband. Antenna Matching Network The harmonic filter presents a 50Ω...
  • Page 118 THEORY OF OPERATION UHF Frequency Generation Circuitry The frequency generation system, shown in Figure 2-3, is composed of two circuit blocks, the Fractional-N synthesizer IC U201, the VCO/Buffer IC U251, and associated circuitry. Figure 2-4 shows the peripheral interconnect and support circuitry used in the synthesizer block, and Figure 2-5 details the internal circuitry of the VCOBIC and its interconnections to the surrounding components.
  • Page 119: Fractional-N Synthesizer

    UHF Frequency Generation Circuitry Fractional-N Synthesizer The Fractional-N synthesizer, shown in Figure 2-4, uses a 16.8 MHz crystal (Y201) to provide the reference frequency for the system. External components C201-C203, R202 and D201 are also part of the temperature-compensated oscillator circuit. The dc voltage applied to varactor D201 from U201 pin 25 is determined by a temperature-compensation algorithm within U201, and is specific to each crystal Y201, based on a unique code assigned to the crystal that identifies its temperature characteristics.
  • Page 120: Voltage Controlled Oscillator (Vco)

    THEORY OF OPERATION Voltage Controlled Oscillator (VCO) The VCOBIC (U251), shown in Figure 2-5, in conjunction with the Fractional-N synthesizer (U201) generates RF in both the receive and the transmit modes of operation. The TRB line (U251 pin 19) determines which oscillator and buffer are enabled. A sample of the RF signal from the enabled oscillator is routed from U251 pin 12 through a low pass filter, to the prescaler input of the synthesizer IC (U201 pin 32).

    Chapter 3 TROUBLESHOOTING TABLES This section contains detailed troubleshooting tables. These tables should be used as a guide in determining the problem areas. They are not a substitute for knowledge of circuit operation and astute troubleshooting techniques. It is advisable to refer to the related detailed circuit descriptions in the theory of operation sections prior to troubleshooting a radio.
