Abstract
A double super-heterodyne tuner provided with an up-converting section and a down-converting section, and including an input filter constituted by single tuning to be supplied with an input signal, an RF amplifier for amplifying the signal passing through the input filter, and an inter-stage tuning circuit constituted by single tuning connected to an output end of the RF amplifier and provided at an input portion of the up-converting section. The input filter and the inter-stage tuning circuit are supplied with a tuning voltage different from that supplied to a first local oscillator so as to alter its filter characteristics for simplification of the circuit construction and improvement of NF (noise factor).
