Audio Logic Board Appendix A - UHF Circuit Descriptions
• Gateway operational software to obey command protocol from the DSP. DSP
sends commands to set up RF characteristics, modulation etc.
• PA power control software and temperature sensing. Fan control.
• Debug software to allow control through the PC terminal program.
• Alarm points and monitors alarms and takes corrective action
• Controls interfaces with Exciter for frequency setting and PTT indication
• Controls EEPROM reading and writing from various modules. Allows it to be
controlled from the Debug point initially. Later DSP can select.
• Configuration data, serial number etc. Plug and play system for all modules.
Reads config data from all modules.
• Other operational software.
A.5 Audio Logic Board
A.5.1 General Description
The Audio Logic board is the main controller for the base station.
It sends and receives serial control to the Controller using a defined protocol.
It communicates data with the Ethernet link receiving and sending data to its
network.
The TX data encoding, modulation shaping, RX clock recovery, demodulation etc
is done by the hardware and programming.
The TX modulation data is sent synchronously through the I2SCLK, I2SDAT,
ISFRM lines to the Exciter through the Controller board.
The RX modulation is through 90 MHz IF ports, main and diversity.
A.5.2 Schematic Description
The OMAP operates all external interfaces and the three serial communication
devices. It also interfaces with the Controller board through a MCBSP BUS and
UART.
