THE CIRCUIT


Here is the schematic diagram of the mini - antenna array. The PIN diodes are SMT devices with two diodes ( series connected ) per device. Aside from the addition of 50 ohm SMT load resistors for each antenna, the schematic is almost identical to that of the original antenna board, although ( obviously ) several component values and part numbers have changed.

CIRCUIT DETAILS


Some of the circuits must be "hand wired" for reason previously explained. In the schematic shown above, these circuits are identified with BOLD wires and CIRCLED components. Surface mount devices are indicated with a "bull's eye" symbol.
