Commonly used intermediate frequencies
  • 110 kHz was used in Long wavebroadcast receivers. [1]
  • Analoguetelevision receivers using system M: 41.25 MHz (audio) and 45.75 MHz (video). Note, the channel is flipped over in the conversion process in anintercarriersystem, so the audio IF frequency is lower than the video IF frequency. Also, there is no audio local oscillator, the injected video carrier serves that purpose.
  • Analoguetelevision receivers using system B and similar systems: 33.4 MHz. for aural and 38.9 MHz. for visual signal. (The discussion about the frequency conversion is the same as in system M)
  • FM radioreceivers: 262 kHz, 455 kHz, 1.6 MHz, 5.5 MHz, 10.7 MHz, 10.8 MHz, 11.2 MHz, 11.7 MHz, 11.8 MHz, 21.4 MHz, 75 MHz and 98 MHz. In double-conversion superheterodyne receivers, a first intermediate frequency of 10.7 MHz is often used, followed by a second intermediate frequency of 470 kHz. There are triple conversion designs used in police scanner receivers, high-end communications receivers, and many point-to-point microwave systems.
  • AM radioreceivers: 450 kHz, 455 kHz, 460 kHz, 465 kHz, 470 kHz, 475 kHz, 480 kHz
  • Satellite uplink-downlinkequipment: 70 MHz, 950-1450 Downlink first IF
  • Terrestrial microwaveequipment: 250 MHz, 70 MHz or 75 MHz
  • Radar: 30 MHz
  • RF Test Equipment: 310.7 MHz, 160 MHz, 21.4 MHz

What are the frequency determining components in a phase shift oscillator?

The frequency determining components in a phase shift oscillator are the series of resistive/capacitive filters on the output of the inverting amplifier. See accompanying link.


What is the purpose of determining frequency response?

frequency response curve helps us to find the bandwidth of particular amplifier circuit. Bandwidth is the range of frequency at which the amplifier works better....


What is the low frequency gain in operational amplifier?

low frequency gain will be 20log(Vo/Vin)


What radios contain intermediate frequency transformers?

AM (amplified modulation) radio contain the intermediate frequency transformer.it has IF to mixed the carrier signal into local oscillator signal in a process called heterodyning, resulting in a signal at the difference or beat frequency. Intermediate frequency are used in superheterodyne radio recievers, in which an incoming signals is shifted to an IF for amplication before final destination is done.


What is the difference between a Superheterodyne and a Neutrodyne radio receiver?

The superheterodyne converts the desired incoming signal frequency to an (usually lower) intermediate frequency before demodulating it and extracting the audio signal (or video/data, etc).The neutrodyne is a tuned radio frequency design where all amplifying stages operate at the incoming signal frequency. This was the commonest design up to the 1930s. The triode amplifiers used suffered from signal feedback, where a signal from the amplifier's output was coupled back to its input. This could cause the amplifier to act like a transmitter and to oscillate. Neutralization (with capacitors) was invented to prevent this problem and the circuit was named the "neutrodyne".

Tell you what an intermediate frequency amplifier do?

The intermediate frequency (IF) amplifier lies between the mixer and the demodulator. The mixer shifts the input radio frequency (RF) signal into the range of the IF amplifier. The IF amplifer is a band pass amplifier, so only RF signals that are the IF frequency distance away from the local oscillator in the mixer can pass through to the demodulator. This process is called the superhetrodyne process.

What is the typical centre frequency of intermediate frequency amplifier?

I've seen 455kHz, 10.7MHz and 70MHz intermediate frequencies. There is, however, no law that dictates the IF you run...some very sensitive receivers even use multiple IF stages.

What is a direct coupled amplifier?

Quite simply, it's an amplifier wherein the stages as set up so that the output of one stage is coupled directly into the input of the next stage without any wave shaping or tuninig components between them. This makes for fairly flat frequency response. A link is provided to the Wikipedia article on direct coupling.

What is intermediate transformer?

I suspect you mean an "Intermediate Frequency transformer", or IF transformer. Superheterodyne (Or superhet) receivers convert the frequency of an incoming signal to a special frequency called the "Intermediate Frequency" or "IF". Most of the amplification takes place in the IF Amplifier which usually has several stages. Each of these stages is coupled to the next stage by a tuned transformer called an IF transformer. For AM receivers, the Intermediate frequency is usually 455 KHz, and for FM receivers it is usually 10.7 MHz. These transformers are usually about 20 turns of Litz wire on a plastic former with a dust-iron adjustable core. It sits in a little metal shield can.


What is amplifier roll off?

A practical amplifier will contain several components of a "shunt" capacitance inherent in the transistor and physical wiring of the amplifier circuit. As the frequency of the input signal increases, the reactance of these shunt-capacitances will decrease until, at a frequency determined by the value of the shunt-capacitance and the circuit impedance, signal attenuation begins to take place. Thus the shunt capacitances limit the high-frequency response of the amplifier (note that the transistor itself also has inherent limits to it's high frequency amplifying capability). In the case of operational amplifiers, many operational amplifiers are internally compensated by a small capacitor (e.g. about 30pf for a 741). The internal frequency compensation capacitor prevents the operational amplifier from oscillating with resistive feedback.
