    摘要: Digital-to-analog converters (282, 292, 310, 340, or 370) produce intentionally nonlinear outputs. When outputs of a plurality of lower bits are replaced by a next higher bit, a downward step (281 or 330) is produced in an output voltage (276, 332, or 336). Each of the downward steps (281 or 330) results in production of substantially equal output voltages in response to two different digital numbers being inputted. The digital-to-analog converters (282, 292, 310, 340, or 370) of the present invention are useful in frequency-hopping oscillators (72, 136, 170, or 190), in phase-locked oscillators (10, 74, 152, 172, and 196), and in other electronic systems that include a learning path (222, 224, or 226) with a digital-to-analog converter.

    摘要: Signal processing apparatus (410) includes a phase-locked oscillator (200, 236, 310, 330, 390), having a closed loop with both forward (204) and feedback (206) paths, that is a part of a larger closed loop (438). The larger loop (438) is phase locked to the phase-locked oscillator (200, 236, 310, 330, 390) by a signal derived from the larger closed loop (438) that modulates the feedback path (206), and by an output frequency of the phase-locked oscillator (200, 236, 310, 330, 390) that is delivered to the larger loop (438). Modulating the feedback path (206) either adds pulses to the feedback path (206) or removes pulses, thereby causing irregularities in the flow of pulses. A low-pass filter (210) in the feedback path (206) obviates these irregularities, thereby also obviating incidental frequency modulation (IFM) in the output of the phase-locked oscillator (200, 236, 310, 330, 390). Frequency response limitation caused by the low-pass filter (210) is obviated by using the derived signal to modulate the forward path (204) substantially simultaneously with modulation of the feedback path (206).

    摘要: A D.C. modulated phase locked oscillator (60, 80, 100, 140, 160, 190, 220, 264, or 290) includes a phase locking oscillator (70, 90, 128, 180, 192, 222, 266, or 292) and a D.C. modulator (72, 92, 130, 156, 182, 194, 224, 268, or 294). Both a forward path (14) and a feedback path (16) are D.C. modulated. D.C. modulation of the feedback path (16) optionally includes changing the frequency in the feedback path (16) as a function of the frequency of a modulation oscillator (64), changing the frequency in the feedback path (16) by a plurality of pulses for each cycle of the modulation oscillator (64), removing pulses from the feedback path (16), adding pulses to the feedback path (16), dividing the frequency in the feedback path (16) by higher and lower dividing ratios, preventing one cycle in the feedback path (16) from developing a "high" in the feedback path (16), holding a "high" in the feedback path ( 16) between two adjacent pulses, mixing quadrature frequencies with the feedback frequency in the feedback path (16), changing one input to a variable modulus divider (48) by means of a parallel adder (272), and using logic elements (148) to remove pulses from the feedback path (16).

    摘要: Apparatus (70, 80, 90) and method are provided for selectively proportioning, or hot-switching, rf power to a plurality of rf outputs. The method includes: splitting a single rf signal into a plurality of split rf signals using power splitters (12, 36, 38A, 38B); separately power amplifying the split rf signals into the plurality of rf power outputs in solid-state current devices (Q1, Q2, Q3, Q4); selectively proportioning gains of the power amplifying steps; and maintaining a total rf power substantially constant during the selectively proportioning step. Preferably, the method includes series connecting the solid-state current devices (Q1, Q2, Q3, Q4) in series between a dc source-voltage (VDC) and a lower dc voltage; and performing the separate amplifying steps in the series-connected solid-state current devices (Q1, Q2, Q3, Q4). The selective proportioning step includes adjusting gate voltages of the solid-state current devices (Q1, Q2, Q3).
