    摘要: In a channel selecting apparatus for a television receiver having a tuner with a voltage-controlled, variablereactance device as its tuning element, and in which such tuning element has a non-linear relation between its control voltage and the resulting receiving frequency; a sweep pulse generator is operable for producing sweep pulses, a counter counts the sweep pulses for producing progressively changing binary codes corresponding to the changing counts of the counter and which represent respective control voltages for the variable reactance device, a digital-to-analog converter receives the binary codes and converts the same into the respective control voltages for the variable reactance device, and a circuit is provided for varying the period of the sweep pulses so that the rate of change of the receiving frequency is substantially uniform over the range of the progressively changing binary codes. Such circuit for varying the period of the sweep pulses is preferably operable by the binary codes so as to respond to the changes in the latter.

    摘要: A method of and apparatus for tuning an electronic tuner of the type having a voltage-controlled tuning element to which a selected control voltage is applied, thereby tuning the electronic tuner to a corresponding frequency, the tuner additionally including an automatic fine tuning circuit which is operable even when a control voltage first is applied to the voltage-controlled tuning element. When the control voltage first is applied, generally it experiences a gradual increase in magnitude until its predetermined control voltage level is attained. The automatic fine tuning circuit may pull in a frequency corresponding to the instantaneous level of the control voltage during the gradual increase in magnitude thereof. To avoid tuning the electronic tuner to this pulled-in frequency, the selected control voltage is re-applied to the tuning element at a predetermined time subsequent to the initial application of such control voltage.In a preferred embodiment, the electronic tuner is a programmable tuner provided with a storage device wherein representations, such as digital representations, of desired frequencies are stored. The tuner is tuned to one of these frequencies by reading out a selected representation, converting the representation to a corresponding control voltage and then applying this voltage to the voltage-controlled tuning element. The automatic fine tuning operation serves to modify the read-out representation, and thus the converted control voltage, to correspond to a pulled-in frequency. The selected control voltage is re-applied to the tuning element by reading out once again the selected representation from the storage device.

    摘要: A method of and apparatus for converting a plural-bit digital signal to a pulse width modulated signal which, thereafter, can be filtered to derive an analog signal level corresponding to the value of the digital signal. A periodic timing signal is produced and each period thereof is divided into predetermined sections. The value of the digital signal is divided by a factor equal to the number of predetermined sections, and the divided digital signal is converted into a corresponding pulse width modulated signal during each of the timing sections. The pulse width of the pulse width modulated signal in selected ones of the timing sections is selectively increased by a predetermined amount in the event that the divided digital value is not an integral number. In particular, the number of such timimg sections wherein the pulse width of the pulse width modulated signal is increased is equal to the remainder obtained after the value of the digital signal is divided.
