The converted frequencies can calculate as follow. F(x)=X-1001 (X is above 1305 MHz, below 2306 MHz) F(x)=X-2002 (X is above 2306 MHz, below 3305 MHz) NOTE: F(x) is converted frequency X is receiving frequency (Calculate example) • Convert into 599 MHz when receiving 1600 MHz. • Convert into 798 MHz when receiving 2800 MHz. The RF signals from the limiter (D68) are applied to the DOWNCONV board via the J1, pin 8 on the DOWNCONV board. The signals pass through the band switch (DOWNCONV board; D1) and high-pass filter (DOWNCONV board; L1, L2, C2-C4, C41 and C42), and are then amplified at the RF amplifier (DOWNCONV board; IC2, pin 1). The signals are mixed with 1001 MHz or 2002 MHz LO signal at the mixer (DOWNCONV board; IC3, pin 1). The converted signals output from pin 6, and pass through the band switch (DOWNCONV board; D2). The converted signals are applied to the RF unit via J1, pin 1 on the board. According to converted frequency, the signals are applied to the each matched RF circuit. 4-1-4 1ST MIXER AND 1ST IF CIRCUITS (RF UNIT) The 1st mixer circuit converts the received RF signals to a fixed frequency of the 1st IF signal with a PLL output frequency. By changing the PLL frequency, only the desired frequency will pass through the bandpass filters at the next stage of the 1st mixer. • A-BAND CIRCUIT The RF signals from the band switch (D25, D29, D34 and D72) are amplified at the RF amplifier (IC19, pins 1, 4), and are mixed with 1st LO signals at the 1st mixer circuit (IC1, pin 1) to produce a 429.1 MHz 1st IF signal. The 1st IF signal is output from pin 6, and passed through the bandpass filter (FI4) to suppress unwanted harmonic components. The filtered 1st IF signal is applied to the 2nd mixer circuit. The 1st LO signals are generated at the 1st A_VCO circuit and are applied to the 1st mixer (IC1, pin 3) directly. 4 - 2
