Since then, until quite recently, the Superhet design has been at the heart of a majority of commercial radio receivers. Direct Conversion Receivers were devised around 1930, but required ...

We’d say there are several common architectures for receivers and one of the most common is the superheterodyne. But what does that mean exactly? [Technology Connection] has a casual explanation ...

The carrier frequencies for AM operate from 530 kHz to 1610 kHz. Many superheterodyne AM radios use a demodulation circuit designed for 455 kHz. When the listener tunes in a station, an oscillator ...

The acronym “IF” as applied to superheterodyne receivers stands for “intermediate frequency” and so the above title is, to be a purist, an absurdity in referencing a “frequency frequency” but I've ...

the homodyne receiver was one of the earlier methods of building radios, both of which were superseded by the superheterodyne approach. See superheterodyne receiver. THIS DEFINITION IS FOR ...

The AD-FMCOMMS6-EBZ incorporates an I/Q demodulator to implement a direct conversion or zero IF architecture in which just one frequency translation is required, compared to a super-heterodyne ...
