There is provided a tuner capable of improving reliability thereof with reduced power consumption and reduced heat generation. In the tuner, one wideband amplifier circuit including one transistor constitutes a buffer amplifier. The wideband amplifier circuit is coupled with a first local oscillator circuit in a DC coupling style. With the above-mentioned arrangement, the buffer amplifier is allowed to have a simplified circuit construction and reduce noises. Since the amplifier circuit and the local oscillator circuit are coupled with each other in a DC coupling style, reduced power consumption can be achieved. |
