2.1 Power On/Off

7
The mobile radio can be powered on/off through any of the following methods:
1) Power On/Off key
2) Ignition sense or Power On/Off key
3) Emergency
2.1.1 Power On/Off key
After the user presses the front panel Power On/Off key, R944 is grounded, and Q910 and Q905 are
turned on, causing the power management IC U902 and Q920 to start working. Then the processor
U302 will execute user routines, and can identify power on/off signals if low level is detected from Q914,
using the level PWR_CTRL to maintain or cut off the connection with the power system.
2.1.2 Ignition Signal
When voltage of ignition signal exceeds 7V, Q1 will be turned on through charging by C933, R955 and
R956, and the PNP transistor of Q905 will be further turned on to supply power. Q401 will also be turned
on. If signal is detected from Q401, U302 can identify ignition signals and then will generate the level
PWR_CTRL.
2.1.3 Emergency Alarm
When the emergency alarm pin is at low level, R940 is grounded, and Q906 is turned on to supply power.
Q908 is also turned on. When low level is detected from Q908 but the radio is powered off, U302 will
output the level PWR_CTRL and send emergency signal. If the radio is powered on then, U302 will only
output emergency signal.
2.1.4 Power-up Process
1) Turn on the radio through any of the methods mentioned above, and ensure enough time for
U900, U902, U903 and U919 to be turned on.
2) U917 will generate reset signal and remain low level for 1.25 seconds. Then the processor
starts to work.
3) Each method will generate and send a specific power-up signal to the processor.
4) After the signal is received, the processor will generate the level PWR_CTRL, and finish
power-up procedures.

Figure 10 Block Diagram of Audio Path Connection
2.4.1 RX Audio Path
U302 sends digital audio to the audio processor codec via the SSI bus of interface MCBSP1. The bus is
composed of CLKX, FSX, DX and DR. It sends the demodulated PCM audio signal to codec, and adjusts
the signal to appropriate amplitude according to the volume (RMS should be 80mv when frequency is 1k
and deviation is 3k). Then the codec converts PCM data into analog audio data via DAC. U231 provides
two outputs SPK1 and SPK2. SPK1 is amplified by U238 and then is fed to the PA U201, to derive two
outputs of received audio, which will be applied to the front panel speaker and further development
interface respectively. SPK2 is amplified and divided into the four paths of signal HANDSET_AUDIO,
RX_AUDIO, PUB_ADDESS1 and PUB_ADDESS2. The first two paths are amplified by U235, and the
last two paths are amplified by U236. Output of HANDSET_AUDIO, PUB_ADDESS1 and
PUB_ADDESS2 are controlled by Q231, Q235 and Q233 respectively.
2.4.2 TX Audio Path
There are two mic inputs applied to the audio processor U231. The internal mic is connected to the
interface MICIN_HND of U231, and is combined with AUX1 to provide differential input. After 9.3V is
divided by R255 and R264, a bias voltage of about 7V is provided to the front panel mic. The external
mic is connected to the interface MIC_HED of codec, featured as single-ended input . Q232 controls
switch between both mics. When internal mic is active, EXT_MIC_EN is at low level, bias voltage of
external mic is disconnected, and the ADC in U231 senses voltage at pin MICIN_HND. When external

13
mic is active, EXT_MIC_EN is at high level, Q232 is turned on, bias voltage is connected, and the ADC
in U231 senses only audio data at pin MICIN_HED.
Audio signals input from MMP interface or the accessory jack, are fed to the codec (gain of codec is
programmable via the CPS) and then are converted by the ADC into 16-bit PCM digital audio, which will
be fed to U302 via the interface SSI.
When the radio is set to operate in loudspeaker mode, audio signal is generated by the internal mic, and
then is fed to U231, and finally is output via SPK2. The output audio signal is amplified, and then is
output as the two paths of audio PUB_ADDRESS1 and PUB_ADDRESS2.
3. Working Principle of RF Section
3.1 UHF1 (400-470 MHz) Transmitter Circuit (5W-45W)
The transmitter section includes power amplifier circuit and power control circuit. The PA circuit is used
for signal amplification, so as to amplify VCO signal to the required output power level. The power
control circuit is used to maintain output power at the required level, and to protect the PA from heating,
and protect the driver PA Q801 (RD07MUS2B), pre-driver PA Q805 (RD01MUS1) and final PA
(PD85035S-E) from damage caused by antenna mismatch, or high/low voltage.
Figure 11 Block Diagram of Transmitter
3.1.1 Power Amplifier
The power amplifier comprises of four-stage amplifier circuits, to amplify VCO signal to the required
output power level. The first is the buffer amplifier circuit (BFG540W) with fixed gain, the second is the
pre-driver power amplifier circuit LDMOS (Lateral Double Diffuse MOS) (RD01MUS1) with variable gain,
the third is the driver power amplifier circuit LDMOS (RD01MVS1) with variable gain, and the last is the
final power amplifier circuit LDMOS (PD85035STR1-E) with fixed gain. The TX power amplifier circuit

14
also includes TX/RX switch and low pass filter.
3.1.2 TX Buffer Amplifier
The buffer amplifier BFG540W (Q801) provides about 16dB power gain, and adjusts the bias circuit to
get quiescent bias current of 28mA for Q801. Power supply for the switching transistor Q810 is
controlled by TX signal (antenna switch enable signal), so as to connect or cut off the power supply for
the whole circuit.
3.1.3 Pre-driver Power Amplifier
The pre-driver power amplifier comprises of LDMOS RD01MUS1 (Q805), with gain controlled by voltage
VGG. The input matching circuit is composed of C826, L826, L814, C843 and R824.
3.1.4 Driver Power Amplifier
The driver power amplifier comprises of LDMOS RD07MVS1 (Q804), with gain controlled by voltage
VGG. The maximum output power is 38.5dBm, and the maximum gain is above 11dB.
3.1.5 Final Power Amplifier
The final power amplifier comprises of two LDMOS PD85035STR1-E (Q802 and Q803), with the
maximum output power of 48.5dBm, and the maximum gain of above 10dB. The input matching circuit is
composed of C815, C839, R804, R806, R807, R813, R818 and R861. And the power combining circuit
comprises of C820, C8330, C831, C819, C812, C841 and C842.
3.1.6 Antenna Switch
The antenna switch is used to switch between the transmitter circuit and the receiver circuit. In TX mode,
the switching transistor Q810 is controlled by TX signal, so as to supply 9V 3A to the PIN diodes D801
and D802. Quiescent bias current of the PIN diode is controlled by the resistors R821 and R825. In TX
mode, D801 and D802 are turned on, and RF signals are applied to the low pass filter (C871, C816,
C836, C837, C838, L809, L813, and L810) and then transmitted via the antenna port.
In RX mode, TX signal controls the switching transistor Q810, to further control the power supply for the
PIN diodes D801 and D802, which has no DC bias current. When the two diodes are turned off, signals
are fed into the low pass filter (L871, C852, C862) and then passed to the RX path.
3.1.7 Low Pass Filter
The low pass filter comprises of inductors L809, L813 and L810, and capacitors C836, C837, C830 and
C838, and is used for attenuation of harmonic energy from the transmitter.
3.1.8 Directional Coupler
The directional coupler is comprised of the Microstrip Directional Coupler, D803, D804 and etc, and is

15
used for detecting forward power and reverse power of the transmitter. The forward power is coupled
with the diode D803, and the voltage is applied to the power control circuit (U801). Then the output
voltage VGG is applied to control the gate voltage of pre-driver and driver PA, for the purpose of stable
power output.
The directional coupler is not only the TX power adjustment circuit, but also a part of the VSWR
detection circuit. The reverse power is coupled with D804. The voltage is applied to U802 and then is fed
into U302 for judgment.
3.1.9 Output Power Control
The TX power is controlled via the power control IC U801. The forward power is applied to the directional
coupler, to output a voltage that can represent the forward power. The voltage together with the preset
voltage are fed into U801 to output a voltage VGG, which can control both gate voltage and gain of Q804
and Q805, for the purpose of stable power output.
3.1.10 Heating and Over-voltage Protections
The circuit comprises of thermistor RT804 and resistor R884. The output voltage is proportional to the
detected temperature. Both the voltage used for temperature detection and the threshold voltage are fed
into the operational amplifier U803, to output a voltage signal that is in proportional to the detected
temperature. The voltage is applied to software judgment, and then the preset voltage will be
subsequently changed to lower TX power, and to protect the PA from over-heating.
3.1.11 Pressure Pad Switch
The power control circuit includes a pressure pad switch SW1, which is controlled by the conductive
rubber part mounted on the top cover. When the switch is off, the power control voltage VGG is pulled
low, and the PA gives no power output. When the top cover is secured to the base, the switch will be
turned on and the PA will work normally. This mechanism will help to protect the PA from damage due to
improper installation.
3.2 UHF1 (400-470 MHz) Receiver Circuit
The receiver utilizes double conversion superheterodyne techniques. The first IF is 73.35MHz and the
second IF is 2.25MHz. The first local oscillator signal is supplied by the PLL circuit U100. And the second
local oscillator signal (71.1MHz) is generated by the PLL circuit U701. The main units are BPF and LNA,
mixer, IF filter, IF amplifier and IF processor.

Figure 12 Block Diagram of Receiver
3.2.1 Front-end Circuit
RF signals are fed into the low pass filter to remove signals above 550MHz, and are applied to the
two-stage band pass filter to select the wanted signal. TV can realize 400-470M bandwidth adjustment.
After passing through the BPF and LNA (Q6102), the RF signals together with the first local oscillator
signal are fed into the mixer for the first time frequency conversion, to generate the first IF signal
(73.35MHz). The passive diode mixer provides good dynamic range and port isolation. The local
oscillator signal (3-5dBm) supplied by the VCO is fed into Q6103, to get the required gain of 17dB. The
first local oscillator signal (73.35MHz) is applied to the crystal filter (Z6100) to remove out-of-band
spurious signal, and then is fed into the two-stage IF amplifier circuit composed of Q6133 and Q6134,
and finally goes to the IF processor AD9864.

The IF signal (73.35MHz) goes into AD9864 via pin 47 for the second time mixing, to generate the
second IF signal (2.25MHz). Digital I/Q signal output from the SSI pin is fed into U302 (OMAP5912) to be
demodulated. AD9864 employs reference frequency of 19.2MHz and shares the crystal with OMAP. The

17
second local oscillator VCO comprises of external transistor, varactor and some other components, to
generate the second local oscillator signal. The 18MHz clock frequency is generated by LC resonance
loop (D702, L715, C745).
The 16-bit 20K audio signal output from AD9864 (U701) is applied to the DSP pin (U302C), and then is
applied to U302 to output 8K data signal, which will be fed into TLV320AIC29IRGZR (U231) and PIN44
(SSI_DI) for DAC. The output analog audio signal will be subject to gain control, and then will be output
to the speaker.

Figure 14 Block Diagram of PLL IC (U100)
The 19.2MHz frequency generated by the reference crystal (X100) is fed into the PLL IC (U100), to
generate the reference frequency. Frequency obtained from the PLL IC (U100) is fed into the phase
comparator, and is then converted to DC CV voltage via the loop filter, to control and lock the frequency.
3.3.4 VCO
VCO is comprised of transistors (Q100, Q103, Q106, Q110), varactors and four Colpitts Oscillators, with
two transistors (Q100 and Q103) as the source of excitation signal for TX, and the other two (Q106 and
Q110) as the source of local oscillator signal for RX. U302 controls the operating frequency of the VCO.
