    146-174 MHz VHF Theory Of Operation: VHF Frequency Generation Circuitry 5-5
    Transmit modulation from the ASFICcmp (U451 pin 40) is applied to U201 pin 10 (MOD_IN). An 
    electronic attenuator in the ASFICcmp adjusts overall transmitter deviation by varying the audio level 
    applied to the synthesizer IC. Internally the audio is digitized by the Fractional-N synthesizer and 
    applied to the loop divider to provide the low-port modulation. The audio is also routed through an 
    internal attenuator for the purpose of balancing the low port and high port modulation and reducing 
    the deviation by 6 dB for 12.5 kHz channels, and is available at U201 pin 41 (VCO_MOD). This audio 
    signal is routed to the VCOs modulator.
    Figure 5-3.  VHF Frequency Generation Unit Block Diagram
    5.4.1 Fractional-N Synthesizer
    The Fractional-N synthesizer, shown in Figure 5-4, 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. Stability is better than 2.5 ppm over temperatures of -30 to 60 °C. Software-
    programmable electronic frequency adjustment is achieved by an internal DAC which provides a 
    frequency adjustment voltage from U201 pin 25 to varactor D201.
    The synthesizer IC U201 further divides the 16.8 MHz signal to 2.1 MHz, 2.225 MHz, or 2.4 MHz for 
    use as reference frequencies. It also provides a buffered 16.8 MHz signal at U201 pin 19 for use by 
    the ASFICcmp. 
    To achieve fast locking of the synthesizer, an internal adapt charge pump provides higher current at 
    U201 pin 45 to quickly force the synthesizer within lock range. The required frequency is then locked 
    by the normal mode charge pump at pin 43. A loop filter (C243-C245 and R243-R245) removes noise 
    and spurs from the steering voltage applied to the VCO varactors, with additional filtering located in 
    the VCO circuit. 
    Both the normal and adapt charge pumps get their supply from the capacitive voltage multiplier made 
    up of C221-C224 and D220-D221. Two 3 V square waves from U201 pins 14-15 provide the drive 
    signals for the voltage multiplier, which generates 12.1 V at U201 pin 47. This voltage is filtered by 
    C225-C228.

    5-6146-174 MHz VHF Theory Of Operation: VHF Frequency Generation Circuitry
    One of the auxiliary outputs of the synthesizer IC (AUX3, U201 pin 2) provides the TRB signal which 
    determines the operating mode of the VCO, either receive or transmit.
    Figure 5-4.  VHF Synthesizer Block Diagram
    5.4.2 Voltage Controlled Oscillator (VCO)
    The VCOBIC (U251), shown in Figure 5-5, 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). After frequency comparison in the synthesizer, a resultant DC control voltage is 
    used to steer the VCO frequency. When the PLL is locked on frequency, this voltage can vary 
    between 3 V and 9 V. L251 and C251 further attenuate noise and spurs on the steering line voltage.
    In the receive mode, the TRB line (U251 pin 19) is low. This activates the receive VCO and the 
    receive buffer of U251, which operate within the range of 190.85 to 218.85 MHz. The VCO frequency 
    is determined by tank inductor L254, C253-C257, and varactor D251. The buffered RF signal at U251 
    pin 8 is further amplified by Q280 and applied as RX_INJ to the low-pass injection filter in the receiver 
    front end circuit.
    In the transmit mode, U251-19 is driven high by U201 pin 2, enabling the transmit VCO and buffer. 
    The 146-174 MHz RF signal from U251 pin 10 is applied as TX_INJ to the input of the transmitter 
    circuit via matching network C290-C291 and L291. TX VCO frequency is determined by L264, C263-

    5.5 Keypad
    The keypad block diagram is shown in Figure 5-6. Pressing a key creates two distinct voltages 
    KEYPAD_ROW and KEYPAD_COL. These voltages are sent directly to the radio’s microprocessor 
    on the main board. The microprocessor then interprets the voltage for KEYPAD_ROW and 
    KEYPAD_COL for each key press.
