摘要:
Various embodiments of a direct digital amplitude modulator (DDAM) for modulating radio frequency (RF) or intermediate frequency (IF) or baseband signal with the invented interpolation technique are disclosed. The interpolation technique greatly reduces the amplitudes of alias signals without using an analog filter. The embodiments therefore are significant for various communication transmitters to achieve simple structure, good linearity and high power efficiency.

A method is performed for influencing the signal shape of an output signal of an RF power resonance amplifier and an RF excitation arrangement including an RF power resonance amplifier. A basic signal of a basic frequency is amplified and modulated with a modulation signal, and an output oscillating circuit of the RF power resonance amplifier is tuned to a frequency in the range of the basic frequency, and is excited with the basic signal during normal operation. At times that are or can be predetermined, the output oscillating circuit is driven with a driving signal that differs from the basic signal, for a time period that is or can be predetermined. This reduces the dying down time of the output oscillating circuit and increases the steepness of the output signal edges.

An amplitude modulator is provided, which has a first supply connection for supplying a supply potential and a second supply connection for supplying a ground potential. An amplifier stage with a push-pull output stage has a signal input for supplying a signal, and has a single-pole output for emitting a single-ended signal. In order to supply the push-pull output stage, the amplifier stage is connected in a supply path between the first and the second supply connection. A first controllable voltage source and a second controllable voltage source are also provided, whose control inputs are connected to a connection for control purposes by means of a differential modulation signal, and are connected between the amplifier stage and the first supply connection, or the amplifier stage and the second supply connection. Amplitude modulation is thus achieved by modulation of the supply voltage or of the supply current to the push-pull output stage.

A method for modulating the amplitude of an antenna signal applied to an inductive-type antenna circuit by a control circuit having binary ports that can be set to high impedance and with a non-zero internal resistor. The signal providing the electric power supply of the antenna circuit is delivered by at least two ports of the control circuit, and the amplitude of the antenna signal is modulated by changing the output state of at least one of the ports. Particularly applied to contactless smart card readers.

A frequency oscillator tuning process at the manufacturing stage is replaced with an adjustment of a resonant circuit in the frequency oscillator during an operation of the oscillator. The adjustment utilizes a crystal oscillator, a frequency oscillator such as a voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO), and a trimmer in a phase-locked loop configuration to determine a correction voltage required for an untrimmed VCO to operate at a nominally specified frequency by adjusting an input tuning voltage for a resonant circuit.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a power supply modulator for a radio transmitter having apportioned input impedance and buffered switching of power modules. A series arrangement of power supply modules, conventionally disposed in a diode cascade, includes individual inductors to apportion the input impedance of the switching power supplies. The switching sequence of the power supplies is controlled by a FIFO buffer, with the sequentially adjacent power supplies being disposed physically remote so that current transients and thermal loads are more uniformly distributed.
