A downconverter capable of being normally operated even in the case where a universal dual downconverter is made up by use of multiple downconverter circuits. The downconverter includes first and second downconverter circuits, and an amplification unit having at least a first amplifier LNA for receiving a horizontally polarized wave signal, and a second amplifier LNA for receiving a vertically polarized wave signal. If a Tone/Pola signal is a signal indicating a power-saving mode, a control circuit of the first downconverter circuit causes both a local oscillator and a frequency converter to be in a non-operating state, controlling a bias circuit such that power is supplied to the first amplifier LNA. |
