SIGNAL

CIRCUIT

FM

Front-end

The

FM

front-end

of

this

set

uses

a

precision

frequency-linear

type

5-ganged

tuning

capacitor.

The

circuit

is

shown

in

Fig.

4-1.

The

antenna

input

is

made

an

unbalanced

(752)

by

an

M-

coupled

single-tuned

circuit.

The

RF

stage

uses

two

dual-gate

MOS

FETs

(Q,,

Q,)

having

superior

high-

frequency

characteristics.

The

interstage

tuning

circuits

are

C-coupled

double-tuned

for

improved

reception.

The

phase

characteristic,

spurious

interference

ratio,

and

IF

interference

ratio

are

especially

good.

A

dual-gate

MOS

FET

(Q;)

is

also

used

at

the

mixer

stage.

The

received

signal

is

applied

to

gate

1

and

the

local

oscillator

signal

is

input

at

gate

2.

The

converted

output

(10.7MHz)

is

taken

from

the

drain

and

applied

to

the

IF

amplifier

thru

an

IFT.

The

local

oscillator

(Q,)

is

modified

Clapp

circuit.

Its

output

is

fed

to

the

mixer.

D,

of

the

local

oscillator

is

a

vari-cap

diode

that

forms

part

of

the

tuning

capacitance.

A

vari-cap

diode

is

an

element

whose

capacitance

can

be

controlled

by

means

of

the

impressed

voltage,

and

is

designed

to

IF

Amplifier

This

tuner

employs

a

dual

IF

amplifier

consist-

ing

of

a

wide

band

IF

amplifier

designed

for

high

separation,

low

distortion

reproduction,

and

a

narrow

band

IF

amplifier

used

for

rejection

of

interference

signals

(Fig.

4-2).

The

wide

band

IF

amplifier

has

been

designed

with

the

minimum

number

of

frequency

selective

elements,

with

emphasis

being

placed

on

linear

phase

characteristics.

The

narrow

band

IF

amplifier

on

the

other

band,

has

been

designed

with

em-

phasis

on

selectivity.

The

When

are

biased

in

the

forward

direction

and

D,

An

IC

(PA1001-A)

developed

by

Pioneer

is

used

in

the

stereo

demodulation

circuit.

PA1001-A

contains

a

PLL

system

VCO

(Voltage

Controlled

Oscillator),

NFB

demodulator,

automatic

pilot

conceller,

and

stereo/mono

automatic

switch.

The

NFB

demodulator

and

automatic

pilot

can-

celler

are

special

features

of

this

IC.

The

NFB

demodulator

suppresses

distortion

caused

by

the

non-linearity

of

the

demodulation

circuit.

The

automatic

pilot

canceller

cancels

the

pilot

signal

(19kHz)

in

the

stereo

demodulation

signal.

This

circuit

cancels

the

pilot

signal

(19kHz)

in

the

stereo

demodulated

signal

by

applying

the

19kHz

from

the

VCO

synchronized

with

the

pilot

signal

(19kHz)

in

the

composite

signal

to

the

stereo

demodulated

signal

thru

an

AGC

amp.

Moreover,

since

the

cancel

signal

level

tracks

the

input

pilot

signal

level

by

means

of

the

AGC

amp.,

the

re-

jection

even

with

An

IC

contains

two

AF

amplifiers

for

L

and

R

channels,

together

with

a

muting

gate

circuit.

These

AF

circuit

is

electrically

connected

to

the

APC

CIRCUIT

The

APC

circuit

stablizes

the

receiving

state

by

suppressing

changes

in

the

FM

front-end

local

oscillator

frequency.

This

circuit

is

a

PLL

circuit

that

controls

the

frequency

of

the

local

oscillator

(VCO;

Voltage

Controlled

Oscillator)

by

comparing

the

phase

of

a

reference

frequency

produced

by

a

crystal

oscillator

and

the

phase

of

the

local

oscillator

frequency,

and

then

using

the

DC

voltage

corre-

sponding

to

their

to

control

the

local

on

M5S008P

from

an

When

Q;

is

CONTROL

CIRCUIT

NOTE:

The

control

circuit

is

operated

digitally.

Consequently,

voltage

changes

are

represented

by

“‘H”’

(high

level

volt-

age)

and

“‘L”’

(low

level

voltage)

in

the

description.

APC

Operation

Control

The

FET

switch

(Q;)

in

the

APC

circuit

is

turned

off

when

the

tuning

knob

is

touched.

During

this

time,

a

reference

voltage

(+8V)

is

applied

to

the

variable

capacitance

diode

in

the

FM

front-end

local

oscillator

to

permit

station

tuning

operations

with

the

APC

turned

off.

When

an

input

signal

whose

antenna

input

level

is

at

least

20dBf

(5.5uV)

is

tuned,

the

TUNE

indicator

LED

is

turned

on.

And

when

the

tuning

knob

is

then

released,

the

FET

switch

(Q;)

is

turned

on,

thereby

completing

the

APC

circuit

loop

to

“lock”

the

local

oscillator

frequency.

The

TUNE

indicator

LED

subsequently

turns

off,

and

the

LOCKED

indicator

LED

turns

on

instead.

These

operations

are

all

controlled

by

the

touch

sensor,

APC

beat

detector,

and

the

output

from

pin

no.12

of

the

IF

system

IC

(PA38001-A).

(See

Fig.

4-10).

When

the

tuning

knob

is

touched

by

hand,

noise

voltage

induced

by

the

human

body

is

detected

and

amplified

by

the

touch

sensor.

The

sensor

output

is

then

rectified

and

employed

as

the

Schmitt

A

control

voltage.

When

an

APC

beat

signal

of

at

least

7kHz

appears

at

the

output

of

the

sampling

hold

circuit,

it

is

detected,

and

then

amplified

by

the

APC

beat

detector.

(APC

beat

signals

are

generated

at

the

sampling

hold

circuit

output

if

the

FM

front-end

local

oscillator

fails

APC-—PLL

Tx-9800

to

remain

at

an

integer

multiple

of

100kHz.

The

frequency

of

this

beat

signal

lies

within

the

DC

~

50kHz

range,

and

is

determined

by

the

phase

dif-

ference

between

the

sampling

pulse

and

the

oscil-

lator

frequency).

The

output

of

the

APC

beat

detector

is

rectified,

and

employed

as

the

Schmitt

B

control

voltage.

When

a

station

is

tuned

away

by

more

than

+65kHz,

or

if

the

antenna

input

level

is

below

20dBf,

a

DC

voltage

appears

at

pin

no.12

of

the

IF

system

IC

(PA3001-A),

this

also

being

used

to

control

Schmitt

B.

Consequently,

when

the

antenna

input

level

of

the

tuned

signal

exceeds

20dBf,

the

collector

volt-

age

of

Q;,

in

Schmitt

A

will

be

set

to

“‘L’’,

and

the

collector

voltage

of

Q33

set

to

‘‘H’’.

And

with

the

collector

voltage

of

Q3,

in

Schmitt

B

at

““H”’,

the

collector

voltage

of

Q3,

is

also

set

to

“H”

(by

the

Q3,.

collector

voltage).

The

base

voltage

of

Q3;

is

thereby

increased,

resulting

in

this

transistor

being

turned

on

to

light

up

the

TUNE

indicator.

Since

Q34

remains

off

because

of

a

low

base

voltage,

the

LOCKED

indicator

does

not

light

up

at

this

time.

And

since

Q3,

has

already

been

turned

on

by

the

collector

voltage

of

Q37,

the

gate

voltage

of

the

APC

circuit

FET

switch

(Q;)

will

be

low,

which

means

this

switch

will

also

remain

off.

When

the

tuning

knob

is

then

released,

the

col-

lector

voltages

of

Schmitt

A

Q3,

and

Qs3;,

and

Schmitt

B

Q3,

will

all

be

inverted,

resulting

in

Q3;

(TUNE

indicator

LED)

being

turned

off,

and

Q3,4

(LOCKED

indicator

LED)

being

turned

on.

Qa.

is

also

turned

off

to

turn

the

FET

switch

(Q;)

on.

Circuit

This

is

designed

to

delay

the

lighting

up

of

the

indicator

LEDs

(TUNE,

LOCKED,

STE-

REO)

when

the

power

is

switched

on,

and

to

turn

them

off

immediately

when

the

power

is

switched

off

again.

(See

Fig.

4-10).

When

the

power

is

switched

on,

Q2.

is

turned

off

immediately

by

a

negative

voltage

applied

via

D,.-

The

base

voltage

of

Q,,

is

thereby

increased

gradually,

the

increase

being

controlled

by

the

Rii3/C1;3

time

constant.

Once

the

voltage

reaches

+1.2V

(approx.),

Q,7

and

Q.,

are

both

turned

on,

thereby

tuming

on

all

relevant

indicator

LEDs.

When

the

power

is

switched

off

again,

the

negative

voltage

applied

via

D,,

is

cut

immediately,

resulting

in

being

turned

C,,3;

therefore

discharges

directly

via

Q..

to

turn

Q,7

and

Q2,

off.

All

indicator

LEDs

will

consequently

turn

off

immediately.

This

same

result

is

also

achieved

when

the

FUNCTION

selector

is

in

the

AM

posi-

tion.

This

is

due

to

the

fact

that

the

base

of

Q,,

is

connected

to

ground

by

the

FUNCTION

selector,

thereby

turning

Q,7

and

Q»,

off.

Re-lock

Trigger

Circuit

When

the

power

is

switched

on,

this

re-lock

trigger

circuit

activates

a

sweep

of

the

local

oscil-

lator

frequency,

covering

a

range

of

up

to

100kHz

both

sides

of

the

frequency

indicated

by

the

dial

pointer

at

the

time.

If

a

signal

of

antenna

input

level

in

excess

of

20dBf

is

detected

in

this

range,

the

frequency

is

automatically

re-locked

by

the

APC

circuit.

(See

Fig.

4-11).

In

this

case,

when

the

power

is

switched

on

Q.3

is

turned

off

immediately

by

the

negative

volt-

age

applied

via

D,,,

resulting

in

the

voltage

changes

at

different

places

describing

different

curves

as

shown

in

Fig.

4-12.

The

voltage

applied

to

the

variable

capacitance

diode

in

the

local

oscillator

is

represented

by

curve

(e),

thereby

causing

the

local

oscillator

frequency

to

change,

or

‘“‘sweep”

within

a

limited

range.

If

an

input

signal

whose

antenna

input

level

exceeds

20dBf

is

detected

during

this

sweep,

the

APC

circuit

FET

switch

is

turned

and

an

IC

(HA1197).

The

IF

stage

includes

a

‘‘wide

stage

(for

improved

quality

of

sound)

and

a

“nar-

IF

amplifier”

stage

(for

better

selectivity).

(See

Fig.

The

WIDE

and

NARROW

positions

are

switched

by

switching

the
