A television receiving system is disclosed, comprising an input terminal, a down-converter, an amplifier, an analog-to-digital converter (ADC), a demodulator, and an isolation circuit. The input terminal receives an RF signal. The down*converter, coupled to the input terminal, converts the RF signal to an intermediate frequency (IF) signal. The amplifier, coupled to the down-converter, amplifies the IF signal. The analog-to-digital converter, coupled to the amplifier, converts the amplified IF signal to digital data. The demodulator, coupled to the ADC, processes the digital data to generate baseband data. The isolation circuit, coupled between the amplifier and ADC, isolates the amplified IF signal from being affected by interference induced by the ADC.

Television receiving system

An electronic system comprises an automatic power control (APC) unit, an adjustment unit, and a calibration unit. The automatic power control (APC) unit receives a first input signal and a second input signal and generates an output signal. An adjustment unit coupled to the first input terminal of the APC unit generates a voltage offset according to an adjustment signal. The calibration unit provides the adjustment signal with a series of values. The calibration unit monitors the output signal until the output signal changes states.
