4. CIRCUIT
DESCRIPTIONS
4.1 FM
TUNER
Front
End
The FM front end of SX-3800 includes
a 3
gangedtuning capacitor, a dual-gateMOS FET-
equipped L-stageRF amplifier, and a modified
Clapp circuit local oscillator. This oscillator is a
voltage controled oscillator employing a vari-cap
(variable
capacitancediode). Whenthe quartz-lock
system (refer to "Quartz-lock system") is not in
operation, a constant voltage is applied to the
diode.
lF AmplifierandDetector
Theseemploy 3 ICs and 3 dual-elementceramic
filten. The IC (HA1201) of the first 2 stagecon-
stitutes a single-stagedifferential amplifier current-
limiting limiter. The IC (PA3007-A) in the third
stage,an
improvementon the former IF system
IC
(PA3001-A), includes an IF limiter amplifier,
quadrature detector, meter drive, and other cir-
cuits. Performance in terms of distortion, S/N
ratio, delay characteristics,and other parameters,
shows a marked improvement in comparison to
thePA3001-4.
MultiplexDecoder
The recently developed multiplex decoder IC
(PA4006-A)
combines
MPX decodingwith muting
functions in a single IC, thereby handling the
functions of the more conventional MPX IC
(PA1-001-A)
and
AF MUTING IC (PA1002-A).
Distortion ratings and SIN ratio have been
further improved by incorporating a chopper type
MPX decoder.The chopper type switchingcircuit
(see Fig. 4-1) operates by switching the signal
either to ground or to the through circuit, thereby
eliminating the generation of unwanted noise or
distortion. Furthermore, sincethe PA4006-A fea-
tures DC direct-coupledswitchingwith the detec-

system
The quartz-lock

employingacrystal
resonator.
Any displacement
in
the intermediate
frequency(iF) isdetectedasaDC
voltage by the discriminator (equipped with a
crystal resonator),resulting in the local oscillator
frequency being corrected and subsequently
locked. This extremely stable frequency servo-
control systemthusensuresthat tunedfrequencies

for aslongas
required.
Whenthe IF signal
appears
at pin no.l? of the
IF system IC (PA300?-A), it is amplified and
applied to crystal detector (seeFig. 4'2) which
consistsof diodesconnected
in parallel

circuit equipped with a crystal resona-
tor. The resonance
frequency is the same

frequency
(10.?MHz),

in the output
beingreduced

stage
(C) is reduced,
and the reactance
of the in-
ductance stage (L) increased,
resulting in AM
detection
by D2 which leaves
the positive
portion
of tlieIF signal.
If theinput frequency
decreases,
L
stagereactance
is decreased
and C stage
reactance
increased,
resulting
in AiVl
detection
by D1 which
leaves
the negative
portion of the IF signal.TheL
stage
and C stage
reactances
increase
asthe deglee
of detuning in the respective
directions is in-
creased,
resulting in a subsequent
increase
in the
detector output. By thus attaining S-curve
charac-
teristics,FM detection
becomes
possible.
Since
the
IF signalis an FIvI
signal
frequency deviation due
to modulationwill besymmetrical
aboutacentral
axis, And if the central frequency is equalto the
resonance
frequency,
the detector
output DClevel
will be zero.If, however,
there
is
anydisplacement
in the central frequency,frequency deviation in
respect
to the detector
will become
asymmetrical,
resultingin the generation
of a DC voltage.
This
DC voltage
ispassed
throughLPF1 (IF filter) and
LPF2 (AC filter) to form a correction voltage
which is applied
to the variable
capacitance
diode
in tlre iocal oscillator, thereby correcting the
oscillator frequency
to obtain a constanttF (i.e.
aconstant
tuned
frequency).
Sincethe central frequency of the crystaldetec-
tor is regulated
by the crystalresonator,
tuned fre-
quencies
of extremelyhigh stability are
obtained.
r Limiting the Locking Range
If lhe quartz-lock range is too wide, it will
overiapwith strong adjacentbroadcasting
frequen-
ciesand result in considerable
tuning difficulties.
A DC amplifier is therelore used as a limiter
(limiter actionby NFB circuitzener
diodes)
which
restrictsthe voltageappliedto the variablecapaci-
tance
diode,
therebylimiting thequartz-lock
range.
A DC voltageappea$ at pin no.L3 of the IF
system IC (PA3007-A) when the antenna
input
level drops below 5pV, or when the tuned fre-
quency
hasbeen
detuned
by more than r100kHz.
This DC voltage(FM muting signal)
is applied
to
the gate
of Q2 (fET) via a Schmittcircuit, result-
ing in the FET beingturned on, and the quartz-
Iockcircuitbeing
turnedoff.

4.2 AM TUNER
The AM tuner section consists of a 2-ganged
tuning capacitor
plusan IC (HA119Z) which con-
tains a l-stage RF amplifier, converter,2-stage
IF
amplifier,
detector,
andAGCcircuit.
The AM STEREO OUT terminal on the rear
panel is for connecting to an AM stereo broadcast
decoder adaptor. The signal appearing at this ter-
minal is the converter output passed
via a buffer
(
emitterf
ollower) stage.
4,3 DISPLAY
CIRCUIT
Frequency
Display
Frequencies
received by the SX-9800 are dis-
playedin digital form by fluorescent
indicator tube
(FL tube). Eachdigit employs up to ? segments
(a
- e) (see
Fig.4-3) to display
all numerals
from
0 to 9 (with the exception
of the left handdigit
whichemploys
only 2segments
b and
c).

fi'
Fig.4-3
7-segment

display
The signal
source
during both AM and FM recep-
tion is the local oscillator. The signal
is passed
via
a buffer amplifier (FET) to the prescalar IC
(M54451P) where it issubjected
to frequencydivi-
sion (1/8 for AM and L/80 for FM) beforebeing
rFRlied to the frequency counter IC (pDb0Og).
This IC is responsible
for the dynamic driveof the
?-segment
S-digit display (eachdigit being turned
on according
to time-shared
sequential
scanning).
An outline of the composition of pDb009 is
given in block diagramform in Fig. 4-b. With the
FL tube a- g segments
(anode)for each
digit con-
nected in parallel,the D1 - Db time divisionpulse
signals(see Fig. 4-6) apptied to each grid (inde-
pendent grid for each digit) result in the digik

val. Pin no.? of PD5009
is the brightness
selector
terminal. The time division pulse width is set to
8009s for H level input signals,and to 200psfor
L level signals,thereby varying the degree
of FL
tube brightness(by varying the segmentlighting
period). Note that sincethe pov.er indicator FL
tube is driven by static drive, the degree
of bright-
ness
may bevaried
by changingthe gridvoltage.
The 5.12MHz crystal oscillator generates
the
basic signai used in the preparation of the time
division pulse signaland the counter gate circuit
control signal.
TerminalsS1
- S4 (pin nos.3
- 6) areusedin
designating reception mode. The 2 reception
modesemployedin the SX-3800
(see
Table1) are
designatedby varying the combination of input
levels
(H and L). The 3 different IFs during FM
mode are required in coping with IF offset in the
IF ceramic filter stage, 53 and 54 being preset
during FM mode according to the ceramic filter
characteristics.
Although the SX-3800 FM stagequartz-lock
system
is capableof locking any frequency within
the FM band,the L0kHz digit (digit in thesecond
decimal place)in the FM frequency
displaywill
appear
only as5 or 0.
The frequencydisplayFL tube alsoincorporates
the TUNING and SIGNAL indicators. And al-
though the segments
(anode)
for theseindicators
are static driven by the correspondingdrive cir-
cuits, the edd is driven accordingto the D3 time
