V. Explanation of invention (2). The first local oscillator 1 450 operates between 1 200 and 2100 MHz. Its output signal is mixed with the RF signal in the first mixer 1 408 to generate a first intermediate frequency signal. The carrier frequency is 1 200 MHz. . Due to the mixing of images and harmonics, this processing method can minimize distortion. The harmonic components of the first IF signal are band-limited by the first mixer 1 0 08, and the 0 intermediate frequency signal (1 200 MHz) is approximately filtered, and then the second mixer 1 41 0 and the second mixer The output signal of the local oscillator 1 4 1 2 is mixed to generate a second intermediate frequency 4 Lu No. 'The second mixer 1 4 1 0 is an image rejection mixer (Image-rejection mixer), the second The output frequency of the local oscillator 1412 is 11 80 MHz, and the carrier frequency of the second intermediate frequency signal is 20 MHz. The input RF signal is lower in frequency than the oscillating signal. In this way, the frequency mixing effect is produced. ° However, in the above-mentioned TV tuner, the radio frequency t-surface acoustic wave filter of the out-of-band signal unit is eliminated, such as: surface acoustic wave driving that requires linearization and energy consumption.
