Disclosed herein is a receiver for down-conversion of a dual band. The receiver can down convert radio frequency signals of two different bands into a desired IF signal using only one voltage controlled oscillator (VCO), by dividing the output of the VCO into a predetermined ratio with a divider. The VCO outputs a desired oscillating frequency for conversion of the first-band RF signal into the IF signal, and the divider divides the desired oscillating frequency in a predetermined ratio to output a frequency for conversion of the second-band RF signal into the IF signal. Thus, the receiver can be formed on one silicon substrate.

Disclosed herein are a terrestrial digital multimedia broadcasting (DMB) tuner of a low intermediate frequency (IF) structure which is applied to a mobile communication terminal, such as a mobile phone, and an image rejection mixer applied thereto. In order to improve inter-channel attenuation characteristics, the image rejection mixer locates an oscillation frequency above or beneath the frequency of a target signal to include an image signal of the target signal in a terrestrial DMB band, mixes a radio frequency (RF) signal with the oscillation frequency, and outputs the resulting IF signals to a polyphase filter in a selected arrangement. Because the image signal of the target signal is included in the terrestrial DMB band, the image rejection mixer can satisfy the inter-channel attenuation characteristics without a troublesome or complex design.
