1. PM1000 FM TRANSMITTER
1.1 GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The PM1000 is a complete FM broadcasting transmitter with continuously adjustable output power,
0 to 1050W. Made with MOSFET technology, can be used as stand-alone complete transmitter or
as driver for high power amplifiers.
On the PM1000 the use of MOSFET allows:
- Higher efficiency ( 85%);
- High gain (high transconductance and low internal reactive capacitance);
- High thermal stability (negative coefficient for drain current).
The output frequency range is between 87.5 and 108 MHz. Frequency setting is made using internal
dip switches or external selectors (/C option). The minimum frequency step is 10 kHz.
The transmitter has high frequency stability, due to the use of the Digital Phase Locked Loop
system and a very low drift reference quartz.
4 /101
DB
An internal deviation limiter controls the maximum frequency deviation, thus avoiding adjacent
channel interference in case of accidental over modulation. In order to limit over modulation, it is
necessary to insert the jumper jp6 in the modulation board to enable the limiter.
Valuable characteristics of PM1000 include intelligent protections. Circuits to protec from load
mismatching (VSWR) and overtemperature (TEMP) allow to otain a very high reliability in all
conditions. Every alarm condition is monitored by means of front panel leds.
The front panel led bar enable the full, easy and fast verification of the main parameters and
condition of operation. The output power, the reflected power, the voltage supply of the power
amplifier, the frequency deviation, L&R audio level, and MPX are continuously monitored.
It is possible, using the front panel adjustments, to control the following settings: output power
(PWR adj.), frequency deviation (DEV adj.), transmitting frequency (option /C), manual/remote
control selection (option /R) and the mono/stereo selection (option /S).
An output 10th order elliptic LP filter ensures a pure RF spectrum, compatible with the most
stringent international requirements. As well, a high efficiency switching mode power supply
reduces the power consumption, and ensures reliable operation.

3. INSTALLATION
To install the PM1000:
1. Connect an antenna or a dummy load to the RF output connector.
2. Verify the correct main supply voltage (230 VAC or 115 VAC).
3. Control that the main ON/OFF switch on the rear panel is in the OFF position (labelled 0).
4. Connect the transmitter to the main power supply using the power cord included.
5. Switching ON the transmitter: on the front panel (Fig. 1.1) you will see the MAINS led ON.
6. Control that the LOCK led (Fig. 1.1) on the front panel lights up a few seconds after the power
is turned on.
7. Select the FWD setting, using the Measure select button (Fig. 1.1).
Adjust, looking at the front panel meter, the output power by means of the PWR potentiometer
on the front panel (Fig. 1.1).
WARNING: The transmitter can work properly within 10 % of the nominal main supply voltage
and is designed to support main supply spikes, although it is preferable to use the main voltage
stabilisers to reduce the risk of damage.
13 /101
DB
3. If the transmitter has internal frequency setting, to change frequency open the cover of the Sintel
96 modulator board (see Fig. 1.4) and use the internal dip-switches. The weight of the internal dipswitches is indicated on the next page. To find the correct dip-switches configuration corresponding
to the needed FM channel, please refer to the following example with 98 MHz frequency.
4 - Put every dip-switches in the ON position.
5 - Select the OFF position for the dip-switch with the maximum weight, lower than or equal to the
frequency wanted (for example f0 = 98 MHz put on OFF the 81.92 MHz switch).
6 - Select 98 - 81.92=16.08 MHz, the minimum weight, lower than or equal to 16.08 MHz, is 10.24
MHz; now put off the corresponding switch.
7 - Select 16.08 - 10.24 = 5.84 MHz, the minimum weight, lower than or equal to 5.84 MHz, is 5.12
MHz, now put off the corresponding switch.
8 - Select 5.84 - 5.12 = 0.72 MHz, the minimum weight, lower than or equal to 0.72 MHz, is 0.64
MHz, then put off the corresponding switch.
14 /101
DB
9 - Select 0.72 - 0.64 = 0.08 MHz, there is a weight equal to 0.08 MHz, so put in OFF position the
corresponding switch to complete the setting.
The final configuration is:
10 - Adjust the desired output power using the PWR front panel potentiometer.

ON led: It shows the on/off state of the transmitter, thus the presence of a main power supply.
OVERHEAT led: It indicates that the overtemperature protection is on. This protection does
not need a RESET because it restores the normal working conditions automatically when the
temperature goes back to normal values.
VSWR led: It shows that the VSWR protection is active. This intelligent protection is
characterised by an automatic reset delayed by about 2-3 seconds to avoid the risk of accidental
intervention. This autoreset tries to resume to normal operation only 3-4 times, then turns off the
transmitter definitively.
REMOTE SHUT-DOWN led: It is enable if the amplifier has the /R option.
When it is light on, shown that power output has zero worth because of a remote external
impulse.
UNBAL led: It shows the unbalancing between the two AMP300 amplifier modules, thus an
equipment malfunction.
17 /101
DB
Ipa measure displays the absorbed current of final transistors (f.s. 60A).
DEV measure displays the peak deviation of modulated carrier (f.s. 200KHz).
L/R measure displays the input audio level. (the meter bar is split in two parts, one for each
audio channel).
LOCK led: shows the correct lock of the frequency synthesis circuit (PLL) on the modulator
board.
STEREO led: shows the use of the internal stereo generator board (if present). This led is
related to the switch (Fig. 1.1) labelled STEREO/MONO which allows selection of the type of
signal to be modulated. The mono signal is obtained by a semi-sum of the left and the right
signals for the PM1000. If the internal stereo generator board is not present, the switch
mentioned above and the corresponding LED are unused.
REMOTE led: indicates if the operation of the transmitter can be remote controlled. This
selection is made using the switch REMOTE/MANUAL. This switch and the relative led will
be unused if the transmitter is not equipped with the remote control board option.

4. AMPLIFIER SECTION
4.1 GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The PM1000 amplifier stage is realised with a preamplifier/driver module (Fig. 4.2) and four 300 W
RF MOSFET amplifier modules (see Fig. 12.1). The input signal from the Sintel 96 is amplified to
about 24 W (through the AMP30 module) and then splitted (through a splitter board) in four equal
parts for driving the four AMP300 FM MOSFET amplifier modules. The output power of the four
AMP300 (about 250W) is then coupled (through a coupler board) and filtered by means of an
appropriate low pass filter.
At the output of the low pass filter there is a directional coupler for forward and reflected power
monitoring.

1 mains switching board delivering 45V/60A in continuous operation. This module gives the
correct voltage to supply the MOSFET power amplifiers (DB 9812_001).
2 switching modules capable of 12 VDC (6A max) and +24 VDC (10A max) to power supply
the Protection and control boards, meter stage, Sintel 96 modulator board, AMP30 Driver stage
and all optional boards present.
The switching-mode power supply provides:
1. the efficiency is 80% higher hence provides a considerable reduction of the internal heating, thus
simplifying the cooling system;
2. a lower thermal and mechanical stress for associated components, such as transformer, diodes,
rectifier bridges is inflicted;
3. the power supply voltages at the output of the switching regulators are constant even in case of
wide main fluctuations ( 15 %).

6. MODULATOR STAGE
6.1 GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The new modulator board SINTEL 96 allows a high quality direct carrier modulation accepting a
composite stereo (MPX) or a mono input signal with up to 3 SCA subcarriers (for example RDS,
ARI, ...).
The mono input signal is filtered by a 7th order elliptic filter with a very flat response (20Hz to
15kHz with 0.25 dB) and an optimum out of band attenuation (>50 dB for frequencies higher than
19 kHz), then the signal is amplified (or attenuated) and passed to the VCO oscillator for the FM
carrier modulation. The VCO is controlled by a digital PLL circuit with a high stability quartz
reference to obtain a very stable synthesised oscillation: the frequency setting is customisable using
on board dip-switches (the minimum step size is 10 kHz).
The composite stereo signal and the SCA subcarriers are just amplified or attenuated by the correct
modulation depth adjustment before going through the VCO stage: the stereo performances of
SINTEL 96 are excellent, (stereo separation >60 dB from 20Hz to 15 kHz, SNR > 80 dB).
Before the VCO stage, an adjustable and bypassable deviation limiter prevents the FM carrier from
an excessive modulation depth and adjacent channel interference according to all the international
standards (CCIR, FCC).
Furthermore, an automatic locking circuit enables the output modulated signal of SINTEL 96 only
when the internal PLL is locked properly, in order to avoid unwanted emissions.
