except FM, and triple conversion in FM reception
mode. (Fg.1)

The receiver frequency in SSB mode is given bythe
following equation when the receiver tone produced
by the input frequency (fl~)from the antenna is zero
beat (whenan SSB signal with a carrier point of
IN is
zeroed in):
IN = ILOI - f~oz - CAR
Since all these frequencies are generated by the
PLL circuit, as shown in Figure 2 (PLL frequency con-
figuration), the receiver frequency is determined only
by the reference frequency,
~STD, and the PLL divide
ratio. This means, the accuracy of the reference fre-
quency determines the accuracy of the operating fre-
quency of thetransceiver.
The accuracy ofthe referencecrystal oscillator used
in the TS-GOS is 10 ppm (-1 0 to +50°C). The accuracy
of theoptional temperature-compensatedcrystaloscil-
lator (TCXO, SO-2)is 0.5 ppm (-1 0 to +50°C).
In SSB transmission mode or in other modes, the
frequency is determined by the reference frequency
(~STD) and the PLL divide ratio. Table 1 liststhedisplay
frequencies inthe various modes.
The pitchof the incomingsignal in CW modecan be
varied in 50-Hz steps inthe range 400 to 1000Hzwith-
out changing the center frequency of the
IF filter (vari-
able CW pitch system).
FMtransmission iscarried out by applyingthe audio
signalfromthe microphonetothe 62.35-MHzVCOand
modulating f~oz.

PLL CircuitConfiguration
The TS-60s PLL circuit uses a reference frequency
of 20MHz. and covers 40 to 6OMHz
(K), 50 to 54MHz
(E) in 5- to 200-Hz steps, depending on how fast the
encoder is turned. Figure 2 shows the frequency con-
figuration of the PLLcircuit. Figure3 isa PLLblock dia-
gram.

1. Referenceoscillatorcircuit
The referencefrequency (~STD) for frequency control
is generated by the 20-MHz crystal oscillator, XI and
Q12 (2SC2714(Y)). The reference frequencies for
other circuits are produced bydividing
~STD bytwoand
byfive by IC2 (pPD74HC390G).
~STD is divided bytwo
to produce a 10-MHz
PLL reference signal, whichgoes
to lCll (CXD1225M)and lClOl (CXD1225M).
It is in-
put tothe CAR oscillator section toproduce a 10.695-
MHz signal. The 4-MHz signal produced by dividing
fSTD by five goes to IC4 (SN16913P).
The crystal oscillator circuit can be replaced by an
optional TCXO (SO-2). The TS-60s can beswitchedto
the TCXO by removing a shorting jumper (WlN2).

CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
2. LO2 (PLLloop)
The VCO of IC10 (KCH14) generates a signal of
62.35MHz. The 10-MHz reference frequency is ap-
plied to pin 5 of IC101 (CXD1225M), and is divided by
200 (800inFMmode)toproduce a50-kHz(12.5-kHz in
FM mode) comparison frequency. The output from
the VCO isappliedtopin 11 of IC101, and isdivided by
1247(4988in FMmode). Itisthen comparedwith the
50-kHz (12.5-kHz in FMmode) reference signal by the
phase comparator to lock the VCO frequency. Divide
ratio data is supplied bythe digital unit.
The output is amplified byamplifier Q18 (2SC2954)
and passes through a low-pass filter. The VCO is
modulated in FMmode.

The 10-MHz reference signal is input to pin 5 of
lCl1 (CXD1225M) and is divided by 20 to produce a
500-kHz comparison frequency. The output signal
from the VCO is mixed with a 75.045-to 75.545-MHz
signal from the PLL (described later)to producea38.0-
to 57.5-MHz signal. It is input to pin 11 of IC11, di-
vided, and compared with the 500-kHz signal by the
phase comparator, and the VCO frequency is locked.
Divide ratiodata is supplied bythe digital unit.
The 20-MHz reference signal is input to DDSl (X58-
4020-OO), and the output signal is mixed with a 4-MHz
signal byIC4togenerateasignal of 4.455
to4.955MHz

MHz signal (4x 20-MHz reference frequency) by IC5

(in 5-or 200-Hz steps).

The 20-MHz reference signal is input to DDS2 (X58-
4020-OO), and the output signal is mixed by IC7 (SN
16913P)with the 10MHzsignal divided by IC2 to pro
duce a 10.695-MHzsignal. This signal passes through
the band-passfilter and amplifier and is outputfor local
oscillation and detection.

The DDS is the same as that used inthe TS-50.

Transmitter CircuitConfiguration
The audio signal from the microphone enters CN15
of the TX-RX unit. The signal then goes to 038
(2SC3722K) of the microphone amplifier, and is split
and directed tothe SSB and FMsystems. In the SSB
system, the signal, itsgain properlyadjusted byVR7, is
amplified by
Q40 (2SC2712(Y)),balance-modulated
with the CAR signal (10695MHz)input from CN1l by
IC8 (KPC~O~~HA),passed through 042 (2SC2712(Y)).
and sent to the ciystal filter in the X48-3110-00 unit.
The SSB signal passing through the filter is amplified
by Q43 (3SK131M).
The62.35-MHz LO2signal fromthe PLL unit is input
from CN3 of the TX-RX unit, and mixed with the
10.695-MHz signal amplified by Q43. 046, and 047
(3SK131(M))toproduce a 73.045-MHz signal. The LO1
signalfromthe PLL unit isinputfrom CN2 of theTX-RX
unit, and mixed with the 73.045-MHz signal by 048
and 049 (3SK184(R))to generate the desired signal.
The signal passes through the band-pass filter and is
amplified by 050(2SC2954) to produce the drive out-
put, which goes tothe final unit from CN19.
The signal is amplified to the appropriate power
level for the type by the final unit. Harmonic compo-
nents are attenuated by the filter unit, and the signal is
output from the antenna connector.
In FM mode, the audio signal amplified by micro-
phone amplifier Q38 and Q39 is input to CN1 of the
PLL unit, and passes through the pre-emphasis and
IDC circuit ofIC201 to modulate LO2 (6235MHr).
InAMmode, the signal is generated by unbalancing
the carrier of SSB balance modulator IC8.
In CW mode, Q59 of the TX-RX unit isswitched by
the key, and the signal is input to IC1 of the digital unit.
The sidetone monitorsignal is generated by X59-4000-
00 inthe TX-RX unit, and output fromthe speaker. The
CWcontrol signal is output from IC1 of the digital unit,
and input from CN17 of the TX-RX unit to switch 046
and 047and generate the CW signal. (Fig. 10)
