Principles of Operation
The OSMAC BaseOSMAC Base is a multi-functional unit which can be used to communicate between the built-in
speaker/microphone, pagers, two-way radios and the telephone interface. The internal circuitry is comprised of
numerous elements as shown on the block diagram below. These include radio transceiver, telephone interface,
microprocessor, front panel I/O, DTMF encoder/decoder, CTCSS encoder/decoder, speech synthesizer (DAC),
microphone amplifier, speaker amplifier, analog filters, limiting amplifier and analog switch matrix. The
microprocessor controls all circuitry as needed for the desired communication function. The encoders generate
needed audio signals and the decoders detect incoming control signals on the received audio. Analog switches
route the analog signals within the unit.
