Here we show block diagrams for typical superheterodyne receivers for AM and FM broadcast respectively. This particular FM design uses a modern phase locked loop detector, unlike the frequency discriminator or ratio detector used in earlier FM receivers. A schematic of a simple superhet broadcast FM receiver.
A 5-tube superheterodyne receiver manufactured by Toshiba circa 1955 Superheterodyne transistor radio circuit circa 1975. A superheterodyne receiver, often shortened to superhet, is a type of radio receiver that uses frequency mixing to convert a received signal to a fixed intermediate frequency (IF) which can be more conveniently processed than the original carrier frequency.
Block diagram of a crystal radio receiver Circuit diagram of a simple crystal radio. A crystal radio can be thought of as a radio receiver reduced to its essentials. [3] [39] It consists of at least these components: [22] [40] [41] An antenna in which electric currents are induced by electromagnetic radiation.
The receiver records the Morse code on paper tape Generic block diagram of an unamplified radio receiver from the wireless telegraphy era [25] Example of transatlantic radiotelegraph message recorded on paper tape by a siphon recorder at RCA's New York receiving center in 1920. The translation of the Morse code is given below the tape.
Block diagram of a superheterodyne receiver. The RF front end consists of the components on the left colored red. In a radio receiver circuit, the RF front end, short for radio frequency front end, is a generic term for all the circuitry between a receiver's antenna input up to and including the mixer stage. [1]
English: Block diagram of a single conversion superheterodyne radio receiver. Invented by Edwin Armstrong in 1918 during World War 1, the superheterodyne is the design used in almost all modern radio receivers.
English: Block diagram of a crystal radio, the simplest type of radio receiver which was invented in the early 1900s and widely used until vacuum tube receivers replaced it.
English: Block diagram of a simple reflex radio receiver, an unusual type of radio receiver invented by Marius Latour and William Preiss in 1917 that was used to a limited extent in the 1920s. The distinguishing feature of the reflex circuit is that the amplifier is used to amplify both the radio frequency (RF) and audio frequency (AF) signals ...
