Picardy 2020
============
A reinterpretation of the [Picardy 2m SSB transceiver](http://f6feo.homebuilder.free.fr/transceiver_PICARDY.html) by F6FEO
combined with the [Anglian 3L transverter](http://www.g4ddk.com/Products.html).
* Designed in KiCad
* Meant to be used with a microwave transverter
* But also stand-alone 28MHz and 144MHz (The IF bands)
* Using a STM32F103C8T6 controller
* Si5351 clock source (generates 3 clocks)
* An LCD display
* Discarded ideas
* Include a Lars Widenius GPSDO originally published on [eevblog](https://www.eevblog.com/forum/projects/lars-diy-gpsdo-with-arduino-and-1ns-resolution-tic/?all)
* Offer a 10MHz output refclk for a transverter
* Instead, have a 25MHz ref input, and use a LeoBodnar reference
TODO before ordering the PCB
============================
* Microphone input
* Verify microphone pinout for MH-42
* CW
* Does the trick with the DC bias to leak the LO work ?
* Not tested, but plan B done (J306)
* Use an additional PWM output for plan B?
* Put sidetone volume setting before RV303?
* Hook up to LM375 BYPASS?
* Si5153
* Check desired frequencies can be achieved:
* LO1 = 28 - 4.9152 + VFO
* BFO = 4.91521
* VHF-LO = 144 + 28 and 144 - 28
PCB Assembly Plan
=================
1. DCDC converter for 8V and LDOs
* Check output voltages
* Check drop under load
2. STM32F103C8T6
* Programming
* Sidetone low-pass
* Probably need to do a UI proto already
3. Si5153
* Check I2C works
4. 8V and 5V relay
* Check switching with microcontroller and validate resistors
5. Baseband
1. Crystal filter shape
2. RX and TX filter shape
3. Receive path: IF mixer, crystal filter relay, IF AGC, BFO mixer, AGC measure, AF amp, SPKR
* Verify LO levels into SA602A: at least 200mVpp
4. Transmit path: Mic amp
6. Anglian
1. LO filter shape
2. LO amp. Mixer needs +7dBm
3. All passives
* Verify correct voltages for amplifiers
* Verify PIN currents (Between 20mA and 60mA, below 0.8V)
* Verify filter shapes
4. IF amplifiers, both RX and TX
5. VHF amplifiers
6. VHF bandpass filter
7. Mixer
7. External switching relay
