VXA-150 Circuit Description Vertex Standard Co., Ltd. 1 VXA-150 VXA-150 VXA-150 VXA-150 CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION CIRCUIT DESCRIPTIONCIRCUIT DESCRIPTION CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION Receive Signal Path Receive Signal PathReceive Signal Path Receive Signal Path Incoming RF from the antenna jack is passed through a low-pass filter and high- pass filter consisting of coils L1022, L1024, L1026, L1027, L1030 & L1031, capacitors C1237, C1239, C1242, C1245, C1247, C1248, C1249, C1250, C1251, C1252, C1255 & C1257 and antenna switching diodes D1037 and D1039 (both RLS135) to the receiver front end section. Signals within the frequency range of the transceiver is applied to the receiver front end which contains RF amplifier Q1058 (2SC5226) and varactor-tuned band-pass filter consisting of coils L1013, L1017, L1020, L1021, L1028 & L1029, capacitors C1198, C1204, C1205, C1212, C1216, C1217, C1222, C1228, C1232, C1243 & C1253, and diodes D1032, D1034, D1036 & D1042 (all HVC350), then applied to the 1st mixer Q1056 (2SC5226). Buffered output from the VCO is amplified by Q1029 (2SC5226) to provide a pure 1st local signal between 143.4 and 172.4 MHz for injection to the 1st mixer. The 35.4 MHz 1st mixer product then passes through monolithic crystal filter XF1001 (35S15A, 7.5 kHz BW) which strips away all but the desired signal, which is then amplified by mixer post-amp Q1050 (2SC4215Y). The amplified 1st IF signal is applied to the AM/FM IF subsystem IC Q1049 (TK10931V), which contains the 2nd mixer, limiter amplifier, and AM/FM detector. A 2nd local signal is generated by PLL reference/2nd local oscillator Q1045 (2SC4116GR) from the 17.475 MHz crystal X1002. The 17.47 MHz signal is doubled by Q1048 (2SC4116GR) to produce the 450 kHz 2nd IF when mixed with the 1st IF signal within Q1049. The 2nd IF then passes through the ceramic filter CF1001 (ALFYM450F=K) to strip away unwanted mixer products. In the FM mode, a 2nd IF signal from the ceramic filter CF1001 applied to the limiter amplifier section of Q1049, which removes amplitude variations in the 450 kHz IF before detection of the speech by the ceramic discriminator CD 1001 (CDBM450C24T). Detected audio from Q1049 is passed through the de-emphasis, consisting of the resistors R1089, R1095, R1100 & R1149, capacitors C1104, C1105, VXA-150 Circuit Description Vertex Standard Co., Ltd. 2 C1107 & C1151, and Q1028 (NJM2904V). In the AM mode, detected audio from Q1049 is passed through the audio amplifier Q1028 and ANL circuit, then applied to the AF amplifier Q1028. When ANL is on, the ANL MUTE gate Q1027 (UMG2) goes high, the low-pass filter/limiter consisting of capacitor C1124, resistors R1105, R1111, R1112, R1115 & R1119 and diode D1023 (BAS316) is activate, thus reducing the noises when impulse noise received. The processed audio signal from Q1028 passes through the audio mute gate Q1008 (DTC143ZUA) and the volume control to the audio power amplifier Q1009 (TDA72330), providing up to 0.4 Watts to the headphone jack or 8 Ω loudspeaker. A portion of the AF signal from the AM/FM IF subsystem Q1049 converted into DC voltage within the IC, and then passes through the AGC amplifier Q1054 (2SA1602A) and Q1055 (UMW1) to the inversion amplifiers Q1051 and Q1057 (both 2SC5226). These amplifier reduce the amplifier gain of the IF amplifier Q1050 and the RF amplifier Q1058 while receiving a strong signal. Squelch Control Squelch ControlSquelch Control Squelch Control When a signal is received, a DC squelch control voltage appears at pin 15 of AM/FM IF subsystem Q1049 according to the receiving signal strength. This DC is applied to pin 2 of microprocessor Q1014. The DC squelch control voltage is compared with the SQL threshold level by the microprocessor Q1014. If the DC squelch control voltage is higher, pin 49 of Q1014 goes low. This signal disable the AF MUTE gate Q1008 (DTC143ZUA), thus activating the AF audio. Also, the microprocessor stops scanning, if active, and allows audio to pass through the AF MUTE gate Q1008. Transmit Signal Path Transmit Signal PathTransmit Signal Path Transmit Signal Path Speech input from the microphone is passed through the microphone sensitivity potentiometer VR1001 and microphone amplifier Q1005-3 (NJM2902V), then applied VXA-150 Circuit Description Vertex Standard Co., Ltd. 3 to the ALC amplifier Q1007 (AN6123MS). The amplified speech signal is passed through the high-pass filter Q1005-1 (NJM2902V) and low-pass filter Q1005-2 (NJM2904V), then applied to the power amplifier Q1052 (2SK2974) which AM modulate the Tx frequency with speech signal. When using the optional headset, the SIDETONE signal from Q1011 (UMG2) becomes “HIGH”, turning Q1012 (2SC4116GR) on, therefore a portion of the speech signal applied to the AF power amplifier Q1009 as a monitor signal. The carrier signal from the VCO Q1023 (2SC5226) passes through the buffer amplifier Q1029 (2SC5226) and TX/RX switch D1031 (MC2848), then amplified by Q1043 (2SC3356) and Q1047 (2SK2973), then applied to the power amplifier Q1052 which increases the signal level up to 5 watts output power. The transmit signal then passes through the antenna switch D1037 (RLS135), and is low-pass filtered to suppress away harmonic spurious radiation before delivery to the antenna. Automatic Transmit Power Control Automatic Transmit Power ControlAutomatic Transmit Power Control Automatic Transmit Power Control RF power output from the final amplifier is sampled by C1241/C1244 and is rectified by D1040 (HSM88WA). The resulting DC voltage passes through the Automatic Power Controller Q1005 (NJM2902V) to the APC attenuator D1015 (RN739F) and final amplifier Q1052, so as to control the power output. Transmit Inhibit Transmit InhibitTransmit Inhibit Transmit Inhibit When the transmit PLL is unlocked, pin 7 of PLL chip Q1032 (MB15A01PFV1) goes to a logic low.

VXA-150 Alignment Vertex Standard Co., Ltd. 1 Introduction IntroductionIntroduction Introduction The VXA-150 is carefully aligned at the factory for the specified performance across the Aircraft and Weather bands. Realignment should therefore not be necessary except in the event of a component failure. The following procedures cover the adjustments that are not normally required once the transceiver has left the factory. However, if damage occurs and some parts subsequently are replaced, realignment may be required. If a sudden problem occurs during normal operation, it is likely due to component failure; realignment should not be done until after the faulty component has been replaced. We recommend that servicing be performed only by authorized Vertex Standard service technicians who are experienced with the circuitry and fully equipped for repair and alignment. If a fault is suspected, contact the dealer from whom the transceiver was purchased for instructions regarding repair. Under no circumstances should any alignment be attempted unless the normal function and operation of the transceiver are clearly understood, the cause of the malfunction has been clearly pinpointed and any faulty components replaced, and realignment determined to be absolutely necessary. Problems caused by unauthorized attempts at realignment are not covered by the warranty policy Vertex Standard reserves the right to change circuits and alignment procedures, in the interest of improved performance, without notifying owners. The following test equipment (and familiarity with its use) is necessary for complete realignment. While most steps do not require all of the equipment listed, the interactions of some adjustments may require that more complex adjustments be performed afterwards. Do not attempt to perform only a signal step unless it is clearly isolated electrically from all other steps. Have all test equipment ready before beginning, and follow all of the steps in a section in the order presented. Correction of problems caused by misalignment resulting from use of improper test equipment is not covered under the warranty policy. Note: Signal levels in dB refereed to in this procedure are based on 0 dBμ = 0.5 μV (closed circuit). VXA-150 Alignment Vertex Standard Co., Ltd. 2 Required Test Equipment Required Test EquipmentRequired Test Equipment Required Test Equipment R Radio Tester with calibrated output level at 200 MHz R In-line Wattmeter with 5% accuracy at 200 MHz R 50-Ω, 10-W RF Dummy Load R Regulated DC Power Supply adjustable from 3 to 15 VDC, 2A R Frequency Counter: ±0.2 ppm accuracy at 200 MHz R AF Signal Generator R AC Voltmeter R DC Voltmeter: high impedance R VHF Sampling Coupler Alignment Preparation & Precautions Alignment Preparation & PrecautionsAlignment Preparation & Precautions Alignment Preparation & Precautions A 50-Ω RF load and in-line wattmeter must be connected to the main antenna jack in all procedures that call for transmission, except where specified otherwise. Correct alignment is not possible with an antenna. After completing one step, read the next step to see if the same test equipment is required. If not, remove the test equipment (except dummy load and wattmeter, if connected) before proceeding. Correct alignment requires that the ambient temperature be the same as that of the transceiver and test equipment, and that this temperature be held constant between 20~30 °C (68-86 °F). When the transceiver is brought into the shop from hot or cold air, it should be allowed some time to come to room temperature before alignment. Whenever possible, alignments should be made with oscillator shields and circuit boards firmly affixed in place. Also, the test equipment must be thoroughly warmed up before beginning. Set up the test equipment as shown below for transceiver alignment, apply 7.2 VDC power to the transceiver. Refer to the drawings for Alignment Points. PLL Reference Frequency PLL Reference FrequencyPLL Reference Frequency PLL Reference Frequency R Connect the wattmeter, dummy load and frequency counter connected to the antenna jack, and tune the transceiver to 120.000 MHz.
