3-2-3 MULTIPLIER AND DRIVER CIRCUITS
1. VHP Circuit
The RF signal from the PLL UNIT is amplified by IC1 on the
VHF PA UNIT to obtain 25W, and the output from pin 4on
IC1 is fed to the ANT switching circuit. In the transmit mode
D2 and D4 in the T/R switching circuit are turned ON, and L2
and C2 become aparallel resonant circuit. The output power
from pin 4on IC1 is fed to the antenna terminal through the
bandpass filter.
2. UHF Circuit
The RF signal from the PLL UNIT is amplified by IC2 on the
UHF PA UNIT to obtain 25W, and the output from pin 5on
IC2 is fed to the ANT switching circuit. In the transmit mode,
D5 and D7 in the T/R switching circuit are turned ON, and
LI 5and C41 become aparallel resonant circuit. The output
power from pin 5on IC2 is fed to the antenna terminal
through the bandpass filter.
3. VHF/UHF ALC (Automatic Levei Control) Circuit
(PA UNiTS AND MAIN UNIT)
This circuit stabilizes the output power even when the power
supply voltage or the antenna impedance is fluctuating. The
varying current from the power amplifier at R1 (VHF) and R6
and R1 1(UHF) is amplified by the IC2B (VHF) or IC2A (UHF)
differential amplifiers on the MAIN UNIT. The output voltage
is fed to 01 (VHF) or 03 (UHF) which control the current to
the module’s driver stage, maintaining constant RF power.
4. VHF/UHF RF Meter Circuit
(PA UNITS AND MAIN UNIT)
Asample of the RF output power is fed to D3 (VHF) or D6
(UHF) through 09 (VHF) or 027 (UHF), is rectified, and is
passed to the module’s driver stage to maintain constant RF
power.
5. Power Supply Circuit (MAIN UNIT)
The 13.8V from the DC connector is applied to 104 on the
MAIN UNIT through filters consisting of L22, 097, and R89.
This causes 9V to be fed to the MAIN and PLL-YGR UNITS.
3-3 PLL (PHASE-LOCKED LOOP)
CIRCUITS
3-3-1 PLL
The PLL is designed so that the desired frequency is
generated directly by the VCO using adual modulation
prescaler system, and is composed of the IC2 prescaler IC
and the IC1 PLL 10. The PLL circuit is fed “divided-by-N”
DATA from the CPU to determine the operating frequency.
N-DATA is the ratio of the desired frequency (the transmit
frequency in transmit mode and the first local oscillator
frequency in receive mode) and the reference frequency.
_Desired frequency
Reference frequency
Crystal XI oscillates in Q1 and its output signal is divided by
adividing circuit in 101 that obtains areference frequency of
5kHz for the IC-3200A (6.25kHz for the IC-3200E version).
The signal from the VCO that is buffer-amplified at Q6 is
divided Ntimes at 102 and 101 .The signal inside 101 is phase
detected and the detected signal is output from pin 11on
101. The output signal is applied to the TX D1 and TX D2
varactor diodes (or RX D1 and RX D2) in the VCO and is
passed through the Q2-Q3 loop filter to control the VCO
frequency.
3-3-2 VCO/FM MODULATION CIRCUITS
The VCO is composed of the following circuits: VHF RX,
UHF RX, VHF TX, and UHF TX. APD signal from the PLL is
fed to the varactor diode connected to each drain of the
FETs to control the VCO frequency.
1. Dual Modulus Prescaler
102 is adual modulus prescaler that divides the signal
generated by the VCO by either 64 or 65. The VHF receive
range is 102.125~119.125MHz and the transmit range is
140.00—
150.00MHz. The UHF receive range is
409.
125—
419. 125MHz and the transmit range is
440.00—
450.00MHz. 101 is aCMOS LSI chip designed for
use asafrequency synthesizer. It incorporates a6-bit
swallow counter, an 11 -bit programmable counter, aphase
comparator, acharge pump, and afrequency divider for the
reference frequency. The reference frequency from Q1 is fed
to pin 15 on 101. Here the frequency is divided by 1024, the
reference frequency becomes 5kHz (6.25kHz for the
IC-3200E version), and the frequency is fed to pin 2on 101
.
2. VHF/UHF RX VCO Circuit
The RX VCO is aClapp oscillator circuit which oscillates in
the VHF range 107.125—119.125MHz or in the UHF range
409.125—
419.125MHz. The frequency is controlled by the
DC voltage from VRXC on 103. The drains of 01 (VHF) and
Q4 (UHF) receive apositive 9V while the tranceiver is in the
receive mode and 02 (VHF) or 04 (UHF) are turned ON.
Thus the frequency is generated when the FET source is at
ground level.
3. VHF/UHF TX VCO Circuit
The TX VCO is aClapp oscillator circuit. The frequency is
controlled by the DC voltage from V-VCO-C or U-VCO-C
from IC3. When the drains of 06 (VHF) or 03 (UHF) receives
positive 9V, 04 (VHF) or 03 (UHF) turns ON. The VHF
oscillator frequency (140—150MHz) is fed out through C17
and the UHF oscillator frequency (440—450MHz) is fed out
through the 02 multiplier amplifier.
4. Low-pass Filter Circuit
The local oscillator signal from the RX VCO (VHF:
102.125—
119.125, UHF: 409.125MHz) is divided by 2by the
02 multiplier amplifier. The VHF local oscillator signal is fed
to J2 on the MAIN UNIT through D13 and alow-pass filter
consisting of L12, L13, C99, C100 and C101. The UHF local
oscillator signal is fed to J4 on the MAIN UNIT through D12
and alow-pass filter consisting of L10, L11, C94, C95, and
C96.

5. Tone Circuit
IC-32D0A Version:
TheCTCSStorectrcuit is composed of iC7 and IC8. When a
tone number is selected, data is sent to IC7 from the CPU.
IC7 carries out aeriai/parallei conversion on the data from
the CPU and the results are fed to tCS, IC8 divides the X2
frequency (3,579545MHz) by an amount related to the data
from the CPU^ and the output is fed from pi n1.The CTCSS
tone output level is controfled by R42, then the signal is fed
to the TX VCO UNIT.
IC-3200E Version:
The 1750Hz tone-burst circuit iscomposed of 3CS, Q23, and
Q24. ICS is preset for 1750Hz and outputs the tone signal
from pin 1. When the [TONE] SWITCH on either the
microphone or front panel of the IC-3200E Is pushed, ICS
generates atone and 024 simultaneously makes aSEND
line to ground level, putting thetransceiver in transmit mode.
The 17S0Hz tone output Jevel is conIrolSed by R42 and the
signal Is then fed to the TX VCO UNIT.

6. Voltage Regulator CircutI
{PLL-YGR UNIT)
The supply voltage for the PLL-YGR UNIT includes 10
different values: 13.3V, common 9V, 6V, VR8V, UR8V, VT8V,
UT8V, +8V, UT13.8V, and J8V. These voltages are supplied
to each unit. Acommon 9V from IC4 on the MAIN UNIT is
supplied to the PLL-YGR UNIT. This 9V is connected to the
emitters of Q14 (VT8V), Q13 (UT8V). QIO (VRSV), and Q9
(VRBV). 13.8V isconnected to theemittersofQII (VT13.8V)
and 012 (VT13.SV). Q9, QIO, Oil, Q12, Q13, and Q14 are
PNP transistors which turn ON when their bases are
grounded. The voltage is fed out from the collectors of each
transistor. The bases of 09^ 014 are controlled by lC4and
IC3. IC4 has seven inverter transistors so that when aHIGH
level is applied to IC4 from IC3, the output voltage is LOW.
IC3 is composed of two decoders and ademultipiexer,
IC3 produces a4-bit binary output with two inputs (A and B).
This input is controlled by three signals; SEND (RX: HIGH,
TX: LOW), TX (RX; LOW, TX: HIGH) and BAND A/B (VHP;
LOW. UHF; HIGH), When the PLL is out of lock, the ENABLE
TERMINAL of ICS is HIGH, and all output terminals are
LOW.
3-4 LOGIC CIRCUITS
3-4-1 CPU
The CPU on the LOGIC BUNIT is a4-bit CMOS CPU with an
LCD driver. The initialization matrix on the LOGIC BUNIT
selects the version of the transceiver, and the main matrix on
the LOGIC Aand LOGIC BUNITS controls the functions of
the transceiver.
The CPU controls the PLL, CTCSS and speech synthesizer
ci rcuit by means of serial data through IC4 Dand IG4E on the
LOGIC BUNIT.
1. Memory Backup for CPU

The stop circuit consists of tC3B, iC4B, IC5B, Q7. Q6, arid
DIO. IC3B, Q7, and Q8 function as aNOR gate. D5 and R29
function as an OR gate. IC5B is aSchmitt trigger ci rcuit that
uses the junction voltage of D1 as areference voltage.
Therefore, if the 5V line on the LOGIC AUNIT is more than
4V, IC5B feeds Out aHIGH level and the one shot circuit
consisting of IC4C, C5, and R28 feeds apulse to the INTO
port on the CPU to cancel the CPU mode.
The cathode of Dll is connected to the LCD mute port on
the CPU. When the CPU is in the stop mode, the mute port is
HIGH but when the stop mode is cancelled, the mute port is
LOW. Also, the output levef from the IC3, Q7, and Q3 NOR
gate is LOW. ICABisabufferampiifier which drivesQZ. if the
supplied voltage to 1C5 on the LOGIC AUNIT drops below
3.8V, the output level from 105 will be LOW and the output
level from IC3B will be HIGH. Therefore, the CPU will
activate the stop mode. When the CPU is in the stop mode,
the LCD mute port on the CPU is HIGH, and the outputfrom
JC3B is LOW,

TX/RX Switching Circuit
When the PTT SWITCH on the microphone is pushed, pin 5
of J1 becomes LOW and thecolfectorof Q4 becomes HIGH.
Q3 reverses this signal to supply the transmit mode signal to
the SEND port on the CPU.
3. TX Control
Pin 13on IC3A is connected to the MUTE port on the CPU to
eliminate unwanted signals from being transmitted. If an
out-of-barid frequency is selected, the output level from
ICSAStays LOW to mute the transmit signal when the PTT
SWITCH on the microphone is pressed.
4. Power ON Reset Circuit
When the transceiver is turned ON, asignal from IC4C is
Supplied to IC3C and the main matrix on the LOGIC AUNIT.
If the FUNCTION SWITCH is pressed when the transceiver
is being switched ON, IC3 sends areset signal to the CPU.
5. Scan Stop Circuit
When the SQL Ssignal from the MAIN UNIT is HIGH, it turns
ONOBand passes thesignal to the SCAN STOP port on the
CPU. Also, 06 controls the D13 receive LED.
a. Mic UP/DOWN Circuit
When the UP/DOWN SWITCH on the microphone is
pressed, asignal is supplied to the MIC CK port on the GPU.
When the UP SWITCH is pushed, the collector of ICS
becomes HIGH. When the DOWN SWITCH is pushed, the
collectorof IC5 becomes LOW. The CPU receives this signal
from the U/D port on the CPU to control the microphone
scanning function
3-4-3 LOGIC BUNIT
1. Initial Matrix CircuUs
IC1, the BCD-To-Decimal Decoder on the LOGIC BUNIT,
decodes the initial matrix signal generated by the following
diodes on each lC-3200 version:
(4) Q5 -A1 (Ax)
This matrix sets the frequency step and the reference
frequency of the PLL circuit on BAND B. When the
matrix (especially Q5 —At) is ON, areference
frequency of 6.25kHz is selected; when Q5 At is OFF, a
reference frequency of 5kHz is selected.
Q5 Ax (REFERENCE 3}
This matrix sets the frequency step on BAND B.
(5) Q6->^A2(OWA)
This matrix setstheoffset frequency in duplex mode on
BAND Awhen transceiver power is turned ON. When
the matrix Q6 A1 is ON, ani offset frequency of 600kHz is
selected.
(6) Q7 -A1(A4KOWB)
This matrix sets the offset frequency in duplex mode on
BAND Bwhen transceiver power is turned ON. When
the matrix Q7 A4 is ON, an offset frequency of 5.0MHz is
selected. When both Q7 A1 and Q7 A4 are ON, an offset
frequency of 7.6MHz is selected for the IC-3200E
version.
(7) 09 A1 (VOICE SYNTHESIZER ON/OFF}
This matrix setsthe ON or OFF condition forthe signals
of the voice synthesizerunit, When the matrix is OFF. no
data signals for the voice synthesizer are output. When
the matrix is ON, the data signals are output.

2. Matrix Switch
The matrix data from the LOGIC B UNIT are fed to B1, B2,
and B4 on the CPU through SI to activate the scan speed,
the scan timer, and the memory lock functions.
3. Busy Matrix for the Speech Synthesizer
When the speech synthesizer is activated, it sends abusy
signal to D3, and turns ON D1 B2 on the main matrix by
means of 01 .This alerts the CPU that the synthesizer is
activated. The CPU waits until the busy signal is LOW before
continuing.
4. BEEP Circuit
The BEEP circuit is aphase oscillator consisting of IC3D, R5,
R6, R7, C9, Cl 0, and Cl 1which feeds out a signal to 01 3on
