Background technology
Usually, tuner is driven with two kinds of translation types, for example, and single translation type and double conversion type.A single translation type tuner output intermediate frequency (IF) signal.Double conversion type tuner amplifies and synthesizes first intermediate frequency (IF) signal so that an IF conversion of signals is become the 2nd IF signal, carries out simultaneously and detects.These double conversion type tuners are classified as ground EH tunerE H and satellite electric wave tuner again.
Simultaneously, converting broadcast singal to the IF signal, to finish the trace routine of the IF signal that is converted simultaneously be the mode that a kind of quilt generally adopts, thereby improve the selectivity of frequency.
Fig. 1 is the block diagram of traditional double conversion type terrestrial tuner.
With reference to Fig. 1, double conversion type terrestrial tuner 1 comprises AGC (automatic gain controller) 2, tracking filter 3, RF amplifier 4, RF filter 5, the first frequency mixers 6, first local oscillator 7, the one PLL 8, the one IF filters 9, the one IF amplifiers 10, second frequency mixer 11, second local oscillator, 12, the two PLL, 13, the two IF filters 14.
At length, thus even AGC 2 automatic ride gains cause and radio frequency (RF) signal with frequency range of 44 to 860MHz of input is changed in size from antenna, the output of picture signal always is maintained on the constant level.
Tracking filter 3 is removed by what antenna received and is included in noise in the RF signal, and only allows the RF signal corresponding to the expected frequency wave band pass through.
4 pairs of RF signals through tracking filter 3 of RF amplifier amplify.
RF filter 5 is from being selected the RF component of expectation RF amplifier 4 amplifying signals.
First frequency mixer 6 will be in RF filter 5 frequency of oscillation that produces of selecteed RF component and first local oscillator 7 synthesize, thereby export an IF signal.When selecting a channel, first local oscillator 7 produces certain frequency of oscillation and the frequency of oscillation that produces is outputed to first frequency mixer 6 according to the control voltage of a PLL 8.If the backup channel data are arranged inside, a PLL (phase-locked loop) 8 outputs to first local oscillator 7 to control voltage according to external control.
The one IF filter 9 only makes the IF component of the expectation from an IF signal of first frequency mixer, 6 outputs pass through.
10 pairs of IF signals from 9 outputs of first filter of the one IF amplifier amplify.
The oscillation frequency signal that second frequency mixer 11 will be produced by an IF signal and second local oscillator 12 of an IF amplifier 10 amplifications synthesizes, thereby exports the 2nd IF signal.When selecting a channel, second local oscillator 12 relies on the 2nd PLL 13 to produce certain frequency of oscillation, simultaneously the frequency of oscillation that produces is outputed to second frequency mixer 11.If the backup channel data are arranged inside, the 2nd PLL relies on external control that control voltage is outputed to second local oscillator 12.
The 2nd IF filter 14 only allows the signal with desired bandwidth among the 2nd IF signal of second frequency mixer 11 output pass through.
Channel when the selection expectation in the earthwave signal of from antenna (ANT), introducing of aforesaid double conversion type tuner 1, the channel of expectation is selected by a PLL 8 controls, will be by the frequency of oscillation up conversion to IF corresponding to the signal of desired channel with 1038MHz through first frequency mixer 6 and an IF filter 9, simultaneously again by second frequency mixer 11 and the 2nd IF filter 14 to be converted to the IF of final 44MHz by the frequency of oscillation frequency reducing.
Simultaneously, double conversion type satellite electric wave tuner has identical structure with traditional ground EH tunerE H, but in the frequency inverted mode be used for being different from traditional ground EH tunerE H aspect the target frequency of frequency reducing frequency conversion.
Yet, if these traditional double conversion type ground EH tunerE Hs and satellite tuner are applied on the single equipment, just require to apply respectively the tuner separately that is suitable for ground EH tunerE H and satellite electric wave tuner, thereby having any problem aspect the reduction of manufacturing cost.
Simultaneously, continued on the electron waves receiver market of miniaturization because ground EH tunerE H and satellite electric wave tuner use respectively being positioned, thereby volume increases, this is a sizable problem.
