Phase-shifting multiplication type FM signal demodulation circuit

摘要

A phase-shifting multiplication type FM demodulation circuits comprises a gate circuit including a first and a second switching circuit adapted to be switched for an FM intermediate frequency signal, a resonance circuit and a phase-shifting element. The FM intermediate frequency signal is phase-shifted for about pi /2 (or 90 DEG ) and the phase-shifted signal (frequency) is fed to the second switching circuit of the gate circuit after the phase-conversion of the phase-shifted FM signal by means of a phase-shifter device. The demodulation circuit further includes a bias resistor for the second switching circuit which resistor serves also as a resonance resistor of the resonance circuit, a substraction circuit for detecting output signal from the gate circuit, an output resistor for determining magnitude of the output signal from the subtraction circuit, and a lowpass filter for eliminating higher harmonics from the output signal appearing across the output resistor thereby producing a demodulated output.
