2.5.3 VSWR Overload
The VSWR
overload
circuit
protects the
VT-3/150
Amplifier
from
excessive
antenna
VSWR by
reducing the
amplifier's
gain (output power) when an
overload
condition
occurs. The VSWR
overload
circuit
(R14,
R37, R39, R40,
U2a, and Q6) is an extension of the VSWR sense
circuit
and
operates the same as the VSWR sense open
collector
circuit.
The VSWR Overload
Adjust
potentiometer
(R37) reduces the
voltage
level
of the VSWR
Alarm
Setpoint.
The
voltage
set by
R37 is the
compared
to the output power
alarm
setpoint
by op-amp U2a
which
then
drives
transistor Q6. When transistor Q6 turns on,
signaling
an
over
load
condition,
resistor R14 is
grounded
which
reduces the output power
setpoint.
Reducing the output power
setpoint
lowers the
VT-3/150
Amplifier's
gain and protects the
amplifiers
from
excessive
current draw resulting from
high
antenna
VSWR.
The VSWR overload
circuit's
range of
adjustment
depends on the
setting
of the VSWR
Alarm
Adjust
potentiometer
(R36). The VSWR
overload
transistor Q6 can be
activated
at the same point
at
which
the VSWR
alarm
becomes
active
or the VSWR
overload
circuit
can be disabled by turning
R37
completely
counterclockwise.
