Circuit Description
PLL Frequency Synthesizer
PLL IC Q1019 on the RF-UNIT consists of a data shift
register, reference frequency divider, phase comparator,
charge pump, "intermittent operation" circuit, and band
selector switch. Serial PLL data from the CPU is convert-
ed into parallel data by the shift register in the PLL IC
and is latched into the comparative frequency divider and
reference frequency divider to set a frequency dividing
ratio for each. An 11.7-MHz reference signal produced
by X1001 is fed to "REF" pin 1 of the PLL IC. The internal
reference frequency divider divides the 11.7-MHz refer-
ence by 2,050 (or 1,640) to obtain a reference frequency of
5 kHz (or 6.25 kHz), which is applied to the phase com-
parator. Meanwhile, a sample of the output of VHF VCO
Q4004 or UHF VCO Q4002 or 50 MHz VCO Q4005 on the
VCO-UNIT, buffered by Q4006, is fed to the PLL IC, where
it is divided by the internal comparative frequency divid-
er to produce a comparative frequency which also is ap-
plied to the phase comparator. The phase comparator com-
pares the phase between the reference frequency and com-
parative frequency to output a pulse corresponding to the
phase difference between them. This pulse is fed to the
charge pump, and the output from the charge pump pass-
es through a loop filter composed of L1044, R1089, C1175,
and either R1090, C1192, R1103 and C1195 for VHF, or
R1086, C1189, R1102 and C1194 for UHF, or R1091, C1193,
R1104 and C1196 for 50 MHz, which convert the pulse
into a corresponding smoothed varactor control voltage
(VCV). The VCV is applied to varactors D4004 and D4013
(
1SV325
) in the VHF VCO tank circuit, or to varactor
D4001 (
HVC355B
) in the UHF VCO tank circuit, or to
varactors D4007 and D4008 (
1SV325
) in the 50 MHz VCO,
to eliminate any phase difference between the reference
frequency and comparative frequency, thus locking the
VCO oscillation frequency to the reference crystal. The
VCO frequency is determined by the frequency-dividing
ratio sent from the CPU to the PLL IC. During receiver
power save operation, the PLL circuit operates intermit-
tently to reduce current consumption, for which the "in-
termittent operation" control circuit reduces the lock-up
time.
