Kelkhoff Manager, Product Safety THEORY OF OPERATION AND CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION MODEL TCTX120 2 FUNCTION, REMOTE CONTROL TRANSMITTER (Please refer to enclosed schematic drawing) The TCTX120 transmitter consists of a low power RF oscillator which doubles as a square-law detector (Q2 and associated components), a digital encoder (U1 and associated components), a switch-mode boost voltage converter (L1, Q1, and associated components), and on/off switches. The RF oscillator, Q2, is of the grounded base type. C6, C7, C8, C9, and the copper loop set the center frequency of the oscillator at 390 MHz. C4 and C5, along with the internal capacitance of Q2, establish feedback levels and harmonic suppression. R5 and R6 establish dc operating conditions. U1 and related components generate a digital code. This code is used in the companion receiver to identify a particular transmitter or function. When transmitting a radio code, the unit generates a 9 volt power supply for the RF circuit from its 3V source through the switching voltage converter formed by L1, Q1, and associated components. Q1 is periodically switched on, causing current to flow through L1 at a rate, which increases linearly. When Q1 is switched off, a high voltage is generated across L1 due to the instantaneous change in inductor current. This voltage is transferred across D1 and stored in C2. 1. EXPOSITORY STATEMENT 2.
