Abstract

630,321. Valve circuits for radio reception. PHILIPS LAMPS, Ltd. Nov. 8, 1946, No. 33291. Convention date,. May 3, 1943. [Class 40 (v)] The output of the I.F. amplifier valve 1 of a superheterodyne receiver is coupled to an inductor 3 in the input circuit of an amplifier valve 4. This input circuit or a second input circuit of the amplifier also includes a highlyselective tuned circuit 5 tuned to the carrier frequency and arranged such that the I.F. signal applied to valve 4 is not affected thereby. The tuned circuit is regeneratively coupled to the output of the amplifier to increase the selectivility of the circuit and the output from the amplifier which is applied to demodulator 11 consists of a carrier exalted signal, the level of the sidebands relative to each other being unchanged. Circuit 5 is automatically maintained in tune with the carrier by means of a coil 8, having a magnetic core whose permeability is controlled by the anode current of valve 17 flowing through coil 18. This current is controlled by a control voltage obtained from an error detector comprising diodes 13, 14, to which the I.F. signal is fed in push-pull via coil 12 coupled to coil 2 and the selected carrier is fed in parallel from coil 16 coupled to the anode circuit of the amplifier. Asymmetry of the frequency response of the filter due to the capacity to earth from coil 3 and to the capacity between the final I.F. stage 1 and coil 3 is corrected by means of condensers 19 and 20. Stability of the damping reduction is obtained by negative feedback resistor 9 in the cathode of valve 4.
