4-3 FREQUENCY SYNTHESIZER CIRCUITS
VCO
While transmitting, the VCO (Q21, 22, D20–23) oscillating
frequency is determined by the value of D22, D23, L22, C26
and C27, and the frequency modulation is carried out by
adding modulation signals to D20.
While receiving, D21 is turned ON and C28 is connected to
the GND to shift the oscillation frequency lower.
The oscillated signals are output via the buffers (Q23, 24).

PLL
IC1 is a PLL IC which contains prescaler, programmable
counter, phase comparator and charge pump in its package.
The 21.25 MHz reference frequency signal is fed from X1.
The loop fi lter for the VCO is composed by R8, R10, R22,
C11, C13 and C24.
