    摘要: A frequency synthesizer device comprising a PLL circuit (9) and a frequency-division ratio control circuit (5). The PLL circuit (9) includes a phase comparator (1), a low-pass filter (2), a voltage-controlled oscillator (3), and a variable frequency divider (4). The frequency-division ratio control circuit (5) controls the variable frequency divider (4) such that a frequency division ratio of the variable frequency divider (4) is changed in time and a time average value of the frequency division ratio contains a value below a decimal point. Two different signals of an output signal fdiv of the variable frequency divider (4) and an output fdiv2 obtained via a delay element (10) are used as clocks of an accumulator portion (81) in the frequency-division ratio control circuit (5). The variation in the substrate potential and the variation in the power supply voltage generated by the operation of the frequency-division ratio control circuit (5) can be reduced, and the degradation of C/N of the frequency synthesizer can be suppressed.

    摘要: In a direction conversion receiver, a quadrature demodulator produces differential signals in a baseband on the basis of a local signal of a frequency synthesizer, with the differential signals being inputted through a first low pass filter, a gain control amplifier and an amplifier to a control unit and a direct current component between the differential signals being extracted in a second low pass filter. In addition, an offset compensating section reduces an offset voltage while the control unit outputs a control signal for the control of the gain control amplifier. The second low pass filter includes a time constant circuit for determining a time constant through the use of resistors and a capacitor, and a time constant changing section. A time constant control unit controls the time constant changing section for a predetermined period of time after the control unit outputs data for the change of a frequency of the local signal so that the time constant of the time constant circuit decreases. This shortens the time needed for the settlement of automatic gain control and prevents the deterioration of demodulation accuracy during a call.

    摘要: An object of the invention is to provide wideband modulator using a PLL synthesizer which can match the frequency characteristic and prevent degradation in modulation accuracy even in the presence of a variation in the manufacture of circuit components. In a wideband modulator which modulates the division ratio of a frequency divider by using a modulating signal generated by a modulating signal generator and outputs a modulated carrier signal from a VCO, first and second calibration data from a calibration data generator are input via a selector. The amplitude value of an ac component of each modulating signal appearing on the output of a loop filter or the amplitude value of an ac component of each modulating signal demodulated by a demodulator is converted to a digital value by way of an AID converter. The difference between the two is detected by error detection means and a control signal FCR to eliminate the difference is generated by frequency characteristic correction means in order to correct the frequency characteristic of a PLL or a pre-distortion filter.

    摘要: A frequency synthesizer is provided with a prescaler 2 and a counter 3, which output a signal having a frequency generated by frequency-dividing an output signal of a VCO 1; a reference frequency divider 5 for frequency-dividing a frequency of a reference signal of a reference signal source 4; a frequency adjusting meas 9 operated in such that a frequency error between the output signal of the counter 5 and the output signal of the reference frequency divider 5 is detected, and in response to this detection result, such a signal is outputted by which either a capacitor value or an inductor value employed in a resonant circuit of the VCO 1 is switched; and also a bias control means for applying an arbitrary voltage V1 to a control voltage terminal of the VCO 1 so as to bring an output signal of a charge pump 7 into a high impedance state when the frequency adjusting means 9 is operated. Since the resonant frequency of the resonant circuit is changed in response to an actual oscillation frequency of the VCO 1, the frequency synthesizer can be phase-locked at a desirable frequency. Also, since the VCO can be manufactured in the IC form, the compact VCO can be made in low cost.

    摘要: A fraction part control circuit of a frequency synthesizer apparatus including a PLL circuit is of a plural-n-th-order delta-sigma modulator circuit for controlling a fraction part of a number of frequency division to a variable frequency divider of the PLL circuit. An adder adds data of the fraction part to an output data from a multiplier and outputs the resultant data to a quantizer through a second-order integrator. The quantizer quantizes input data with a quantization step and outputs the quantized data to the multiplier through a feedback circuit. The quantized data is used as data of the controlled fraction part. The multiplier multiplies data from the feedback circuit by the quantization step and outputs the resultant data to the adder. The fraction part control circuit periodically changes the data of the fraction part, thereby setting a frequency of an output signal from a VCO according to an average value of the period.
