    Abstract: A television channel address system incorporates ten touch buttons for digitally addressing a tuner to select a desired television channel. The numerical channel command is converted into an analog tuning voltage for tuning an associated voltage controlled tuner. Automatic fine tuning voltage developed in the television receiver modifies the developed analog tuning voltage for precisely placing the tuner on the desired channel frequency.

    Abstract: AN ELECTRONICALLY CONTROLLED TUNER FOR A TELEVISION RECEIVER IS AUTOMATICALLY TUNED FROM ONE TO ANOTHER OF PRESELECTED CHANNELS. A CONTROL CIRCUIT FOR CHANNEL SELECTION IS ADAPTED TO ENERGIZE A PLURALITY OF TUNER CONTROL TERMINALS AND CHANNEL IDENTIFICATION TERMINALS EACH CORRESPONDING TO A PARTICULAR CHANNEL. THE CONTROL CIRCUIT IS ACTUATABLE TO AUTOMATICALLY CHANGE THE TUNING OF THE RECEIVER TO A SELECTED CHANNEL AND INCLUDES A COUNTER WHICH IS ENERGIZED BY AN OSCILLATOR. MEANS ARE RESPONSIVE TO SUCCESSIVE COUNTS PRODUCED BY THE COUNTER TO APPLY A CONTROL SIGNAL TO A DIFFERENT ONE OF SAID TUNER CONTROL AND CHANNEL IDENTIFICATION TERMINALS FOR CAUSING SAID RECEIVER TO BE TUNED FROM CHANNEL TO CHANNEL IN SUCCESSION WITH EACH CHANNEL BEING IDENTIFIED. THE MEANS ARE RESPONSIVE TO COUNTS CORRESPONDING TO CHANNELS WITHIN THE PRESELECTED GROUP FOR DISABLING THE OSCILLATOR EACH TIME THE COUNTER REACHES ONE OF THE COUNTS.

    Abstract: A television receiver includes automatic fine-tuning circuits which are coupled to a voltage responsive variable capacitance device in the heterodyne local oscillator resonant circuit to control the oscillator frequency. The automatic fine-tuning circuits include a tunable resonant discriminator circuit and provide an output voltage having a magnitude determined by the frequency deviation of the output signal from the television mixer stage from the resonant frequency of the discriminator circuit. The discriminator circuit is tuned over a band of frequencies by varying the voltage across a voltage-responsive variable capacitance device in the discriminator circuit.

    Abstract: A voltage controlled television tuner may be tuned to each of the available channels within its tuning range by providing first and second analog voltage generators responsive to digital channel commands for producing the requisite tuning voltages. The first analog voltage generator provides one or more output voltage ranges, each range corresponding to, for example, a decade of channel frequencies. The second analog voltage generator subdivides the voltages provided by the first generator into voltages corresponding to individual channels, providing thereby the tuning voltages for the voltage controlled tuner.

    Abstract: A television signal seeking system includes a UHF tuner driven by a bidirectional motor. The motor windings are energized through transistor switching circuits which are coupled to signal sensing circuits. Once the motor switch circuits are actuated the motor will drive the tuner through the television frequency spectrum until a stopping signal is applied to the motor switch circuits to deenergize the motor. The stopping signal is developed in response to (1) the presence of a train of horizontal sync pulses; (2) the presence of a predetermined level of automatic gain control voltage; and, (3) the presence of a change of automatic fine tuning correction voltage, when the tuning elements are driven into the pull-in range of the automatic fine tuning circuits.

    Abstract: Voltage from a reference supply is subdivided to provide a plurality of channel representative tuning voltages for a voltage controlled television tuner. A portion of an automatic fine tuning voltage developed in the television receiver is coupled to the reference voltage supply for providing a feedback voltage to maintain the television receiver on the desired channel frequency. Addition of the portion of the automatic fine tuning voltage and the reference supply voltage is such that the portion of the automatic fine tuning voltage provided to the higher frequency channels is greater than the portion thereof supplied to the lower frequency channels.

    Abstract: A television receiver having push buttons numerically labelled 0 through 9 for operatively selecting a television channel is switched on or off without the aid of a particularized manual onoff switch. Depression of channel selection push buttons activates the power to the main portion of the television receiver concurrently setting it to a desired television channel. Further depression of the push buttons selecting a particular number which does not correspond to any existent channel operatively switches the main portion of the television receiver off.
