PTT OUTPUT?
« on: 09. February 2018, 23:21:36 »

I have been looking at the Schematic and the the new 2.8.0 firmware for any clue on how to have a PTT output when transmitting to key those small 50 to 100 watt amplifiers. Anyone know how to get a 0 volt to 5 volt transition when in TX mode?

Best regards

Richard WM0I

You already have a plug called "acc" at your mcHF. This can b used for external keying. Unfortunately the element which is used originally (and by all known clones) is a simple optocoupler whichs characteristic is not very good for those switching purposes. A much better choice would have been a semiconductor relais which is available in MOS technology. You can swap it by yourself.

Here is a solution (DF5LI's diagram) which works perfectly fine:

Following thread entries also describe the somehow better solution in replacing the optocoupler with a semiconductor relais PANASONIC AQV255GSX like Andreas mentioned above.
Unfortunately the thread requires Google translator

But all this solutions are mor or less open collector-switcher to ground. A transition from zero to 5 volt in transmit mode is not so easy to manage. If you are looking at the schematic, you can find pin 1 at U7 (72HTC02), which will have the desired behavior. But be careful, this pin cannot deliver much current...

And your problem is not firmware-related.
