The oscillating unit 11 generates a signal having a frequency of n*f, i.e., n times a target frequency f. The control voltage generation circuit 21 compares the phase difference between a divided signal of a signal generated in the oscillating unit 11 and the reference signal, and outputs a DC control voltage according to the phase difference to the oscillating unit 11, thereby controlling an oscillation frequency. The divider circuit 22 converts a signal generated in the oscillating unit 11 to the target frequency f, by dividing the aforementioned signal into n equal units. By setting the oscillation frequency of the oscillating unit at n times the target frequency, the inductance and the capacitors can be formed on a semiconductor integrated circuit board.

A feeble signal extracting circuit with a simple structure for extracting a feeble signal such as a pilot signal. A pilot signal extracting circuit 22 comprises a band elimination filter (BEF) 30, an analog subtracter 31, an amplifier 32, and a voltage comparator 33. The band elimination filter 30 removes only the frequency components at and near 19 kHz corresponding to the pilot signal and passes the other frequency components. The analog subtracter 31 receives a stereo composite signal inputted from an FM detection circuit 18 and the signal produced by removing the pilot signal from the stereo composite signal by passing the stereo composite signal through the band elimination filter 30, outputs the differential signal of the two signals, and thus extracts only the pilot signal.
摘要:
There are included an LPF (3) and an HPF (4) that are connected in parallel to the output of a pre-emphasis circuit (2). There is also included a gain adjusting circuit (6) that performs a gain adjustment of low-pass filter with respect to the frequency band to be passed through the HPF (4). The low frequency components of the frequency band of baseband signals outputted from the pre-emphasis circuit (2) pass through the LPF (3), while the high frequency components pass through the HPF (4). As to the outputs from the HPF (4), the gain of especially the higher part of the frequency band components to be passed through the HPF (4) is suppressed by the gain adjusting circuit (6), whereby the amplitudes of the baseband signals can be limited only for the high frequency range without using a limiter and further the peak values of the baseband signals can be inhibited from exceeding the maximum frequency deviation.

It is an object of the present invention to provide a variable gain amplifier circuit operable with a low power supply voltage and with less noise generated inside the circuit. In the variable gain amplifier circuit, a third MOS transistor is connected between the respective sources of two MOS transistors constituting a differential amplifier circuit and to the gate of the third MOS transistor, and a DC bias voltage for operating the third MOS transistor in a non-saturated region is supplied. If the output voltage of an AM intermediate frequency variable gain amplifier circuit increases, a control voltage for reducing the resistance between the source and drain of the third MOS transistor is applied to reduce the gain of the AM intermediate frequency variable gain amplifier circuit.

A pilot detection signal voltage is input to a differential amplifier circuit 16 and a reference voltage generated by a reference signal generation circuit 17 is input to a differential amplifier circuit 19.
