5. Base-Band Signal Processing Part
The base-band circuit is located on unit X53-413. This
circuit enables the selection of the Analog Signal Processing
mode and the Digital Signal Processing mode, and adjusts
the level of the base-band signals in each mode. This circuit
consists of IC2, IC3, IC5, IC8, IC9, IC12, IC14, IC19, IC20
and IC21.
The type of input modulation signals are local microphone
terminal, low-speed data (LSD), high-speed data (HSD), ex-
ternal audio input (TA), and external data input (TD), and also
the type of output demodulation signals are receiving audio
output (RA), and receiving data output (RD).
The multiplexer (IC2, IC3, IC14) selects the signal path,
the electronic volume (IC8) adjusts the signal level, and the
operational amplifiers (IC5, IC9, IC12, IC19, IC20, and IC21)
amplify and sum various signals.
5-1. Demodulation circuit
(Analog/NXDN signal processing)
In case of the Analog Signal Processing mode, the de-
tected audio signal obtained from the IF SYSTEM IC (X55-307
IC8) is amplified by IC5 (A/2), input into the AINR terminal
of CODEC IC (IC4), and then processed as an audio signal
by the DSP (IC37). The processed audio signal from the
AOUTR terminal of IC4 is amplified to a sufficient level by
IC12 (A/2), and is then passed through the anti-aliasing filter
at IC12 (B/2).
In case of the NXDN Signal Processing mode, the de-
tected audio/data signal obtained from the IF SYSTEM IC
(X55-307 IC7) is input into the ADC (X53-414 IC312). Re-
ceiving signal processing is performed by RX_DSP (X53-414
IC323), and voice decode processing is performed by TX_
VOCODER DSP (X53-414 IC324). The processed audio sig-
nal from the AOUTL terminal of CODEC IC (X53-414 IC309)
is amplified to a sufficient level by IC20 (D/4), and is then
passed through the anti-aliasing filter at IC20 (C/4).
The audio signal path is selected by multiplexer (IC14)
depending on the Analog mode (IC14 is setting Y=Y0) or
the NXDN mode (IC14 is setting Y=Y1). The audio signal
is then routed through an electronic volume (IC8) V3/V4 to
multiplexer IC (IC25), and is amplified to a sufficient level to
drive the loudspeaker using an audio power amplifier (IC29).
5-2. Audio amplifier aircuit
The audio amplifier circuit is located in the control section
of the Control unit (X53-413).
The 3W output audio power is available from the pin15
test connector “SPO, SPG” on the rear panel to the external
speaker in the case of a 13.8V power supply voltage and 4
ohm load.
5-3. Microphone circuit
The signal from the microphone is passed through the
AGC circuit located in the DISPLAY circuit (X56-312 B/3)
so that it may not saturate. This circuit consists of IC926,
D933, D934 Q931, and Q932. The AGC controls the ampli-
fier gains using the detected audio signal depending on the
positive and negative peaks of the signal amplitude. The
audio signal goes to the control section of the Control unit
(X53-413) from the DISPLAY circuit (X56-312 B/3).
5-4. Modulation circuit
(Analog/NXDN signal processing)
The transmitting audio signal goes to the input terminal of
the multiplexer IC (IC3) for microphone muting.
In case of the Analog Signal Processing mode (multiplexer
IC3 is setting X=X0), the audio signal is amplified by IC9 (A/4),
input to the AINL terminal of the CODEC IC (IC4), and audio
processed by the DSP (IC37). The processed audio signal
from the the AOUTL terminal of IC4 is amplified to a suf-
ficient level by IC9 (B/4), and is then passed through an anti-
aliasing filter at IC9 (C/4), and amplified by the summing (TD)
amplifier IC9 (D/4).
On the other hand, in the case of the NXDN Signal Pro-
cessing mode (multiplexer IC3 is setting X=X1), the audio
signal is amplified by IC20 (A/4), input to the AINL terminal
of the CODEC IC (X53-414 IC309), and processed by the
TX_VOCODER DSP (X53-414 IC324). The processed audio
signal from the AOUTR terminal of IC309 passes through
the anti-aliasing filter at IC19 (B/2).
6. Control Circuit
The control circuit consists of two units, X53-413 and
X53-414.
Unit X53-413 mainly has the power supply circuit, base-
band signal path selection circuit (level adjustment is in-
cluded), analog mode voice codec circuit, and RF controller
circuit.
Unit X53-414 has the mode selection (analog or NXDN)
circuit, NXDN mode communication processing circuit, LAN
interface circuit, and Compact Flash interface circuit.

■RF control MPU
The IC34 RF control MPU is a 16-bit single chip micropro-
cessor incorporating 256Kbite of ROM and 20Kbite of RAM.
This MPU controls the Flash ROM, DSP, receiver unit,
transmitter unit, and EEPROM of each unit, and the display
circuit, and has communication I/F with external devices.
■DSP
The DSP circuit is in charge of the filtering of transmitting
and receiving signals, and the encoding and decoding of
sub-audible signals (encode: QT, DQT, DTMF, decode : QT,
DQT, DTMF).
This circuit consists of IC37, IC30, IC31, IC4, IC5, IC9,
and IC12.
The receiving signal, DET is converted from analog to
digital by IC4 with a sampling frequency of 16.128kHz. The
digitized audio signal is sent to the DSP (IC37) to process
the sub-audible signal and audio signal. The processed digi-
tal audio signal is applied to CODEC IC4, and is converted
from digital to analog. The analog signal is output from
pin16 (AOUTR). The audio signal is then amplified by IC12
(A/2), passes through the low-pass filter at IC12 (B/2), is se-
lected by the multiplexer IC14 (Y0=Y) and is then input into
an electronic volume IC8.
