    摘要: A single chip superhetrodyne AM receiver is disclosed herein. To compensate for process variations in the implementation of the IC, bias currents setting the operating conditions for various amplifiers and other components in the system are adjusted based on frequency control signals in a PLL circuit in the local oscillator. Since the magnitude of the control signal reflects the process variations, the bias currents are adjusted based on the control signal to offset these variations in other portions of the receiver. To further improve the signal to noise ratio of the receiver, the IF filter is tuned within a range so as not to include any integer multiple or integer divisor of the timing reference frequency. Various techniques are described for enabling a complete superhetrodyne AM receiver to be implemented on a single chip which receives an antenna input signal and outputs a digital data signal.

    摘要: A single chip receiver is disclosed herein. The chip only requires an external antenna for operation. A decoder is formed on chip for performing logical operations on demodulated digital data. A baseband filter is controlled by external control signals to have one of a plurality of discrete frequency response bandwidths depending on the type of signal to be received. To compensate for process variations in the implementation of the IC, bias currents setting the operating conditions for various amplifiers and other components in the system are adjusted based on frequency control signals in a PLL circuit in the local oscillator. Since the magnitude of the control signal reflects the process variations, the bias currents are adjusted based on the control signal to offset these variations in other portions of the receiver. To further improve the signal to noise ratio of the receiver, the IF filter is tuned within a range so as not to include any integer multiple or integer divisor of the timing reference frequency. Various techniques are described for enabling a complete receiver to be implemented on a single chip which receives an antenna input signal and outputs a digital data signal.

    摘要: The present invention relates to a device for comparison CMP, which is designed to emit a control signal Vcnt, which is representative of a difference which exists between the input signal frequencies Vdiv and Vref. The device according to the invention includes a phase/frequency comparator PD, which supplies a regulation signal Tun, which is subjected to pulse width modulation according to the difference observed. The device also includes a current source, which is designed to emit a charge current Ics, with a value which is controlled by the regulation signal Tun. The device further includes a capacitive element Cs, which is designed to generate the control signal Vcnt, under the effect of the charge current Ics. By means of a regulation signal Tun, which has a frequency which is virtually constant, the invention makes it possible to impose high-frequency variations on the control signal Vcnt.

    摘要: A frequency divider DIV/4 composed of memory cells (DL1 . . . DL4) realized in ECL technology, whose data paths constitute a loop, the data output Q4 of the last memory cell DL4 being cross-connected to the data input D1 of the first memory cell DL1. The clock inputs Ck of the memory cells DL1, DL3 of the odd rank are connected to the input IN of the frequency divider circuit DIV/4, while the others are cross-connected to said input. Such a frequency divider generates a noise having a unique frequency which is twice the frequency of the input signal, irrespective of the division ratio obtained.

    摘要: The output frequency of a PLL frequency synthesizer and the output frequency of a fixed oscillator are mixed together in a mixer to produce sum and difference frequencies. The sum frequency is used as a local frequency, and the difference frequency is fed back to the PLL frequency synthesizer. In addition, the output frequency of the fixed oscillator is divided in a predetermined ratio to use it as a local frequency for the second or other subsequent frequency converting stage on the receiver or transmitter side.
