Two different amplifier stages are used as the load of the mixer TUA2017 or MTl13006 (products developed by Siemens Co.). The LQ frequency is fixed at 483 MHz, because a commercial SAW oscillator at 483 MHz can be used as a local oscillator. If the RF frequency is swept from 433 to 633 MHz, then the IF frequency also is swept from 0 to 200 MHz. Compared to a passively loaded mixer, this combination of mixer and differential amplifiers exhibits excellent performance. The relative amplitude (amplitude difference between the fundamental frequency and the largest distortion frequency) is typically at least 50 dB. But it is only 30 dB (or less) in the case of a passive load mixer. Resistors R4, R5, R11, and R12 are used as the shunt feedback to obtain the flat output amplitude when the RE frequency is swept. The amplitude ripple with the IF bandwidth (0 to 200 MHz) is less than 0.5 dB. (View)

Current-limiting resistors are used in series with sections of DG300 dual analog switch to limit contact currents to 30 mA continuous or 100 mA pulsed for less than 1 ms. Values of limiting resistors depend on supply voltage used and are therefore determined by experimentation. Technique is suitable for applications in which DG300 serves for charging and discharging capacitor.- Analog Switches and Their Applications, Siliconix, Santa Clara, CA, 1976, p 7-81. (View)

Circuit provides change-over function when only single pair of contacts is available. With switch open, input A goes to output. With switch closed, input B goes to out-put and signal of input A is inverted by opamp so as to cancel direct signal A. Gain is unity for both output signals. Switch can be replaced by FET as in lower diagram; here, capacitor pre vents FET from cutting off during positive half-cycle above about 100 Hz. In multichangeover applications, opamp could be section of programmable opamp.-M. J. Sells, Electronic Changeover Switching, Wireless World, Dec.1974, p 503. (View)

Simple level-shifting driver provides analog switching. Input of logic 1 makes emitter and collector current flow in input PNP transistor, for shifting from logic to -15 V. This current makes NPN transistor turn on so its collector is -15 V, diode is forward-biased, and FET gate is about -14.3 V. At logic 0, both transistors are off and driver output is at +15 V. Diode is now reverse-biased, turning FET on to provide desired switching action between outputs 1 and 2.-J.

DG200 CMOS analog switch is driven through pair of NAND gates connected for logic inputs. With inputs normally low, both switches are held in predetermined states. When either input receives high command pulse, switches assume states given in truth table. Both switches are off when both inputs are held high; after release of high commands, last input to go low determines states of switches.- Analog Switches and Their Applications, Siliconix, Santa Clara, CA, 1976, p 7-69.

Transformer provides isolated base drive for high-speed high-power TRW SVT6062 power Darlington Q2. When 12-V secondary switches positive, C1 charges rapidly, after which base drive current is maintained at level determined by base-emitter voltage of Q2 and value of R1. During turnoff, transformer secondary goes to zero due to shorting of transformer primary by O3 and Q4. Base of Q1 is then forward-biased by capacitor and turned on, discharging C1 through base-emitter path of Q2-D.
