Abstract:
1. A television receiver comprising: a receiver input coupled to an RF signal source; a first reference signal having a first operating frequency; a first mixer having a first input coupled to said receiver input and a second input coupled to said first reference signal; a bond-wire parallel Inductive Capacitive (LC) filter coupled to an output of said first mixer; the bond-wire parallel LC filter passing more than one channel and performing partial image rejection as well as limiting overall signal power levels to be processed by subsequent circuitry, wherein the more than one channel passed by the bond-wire parallel LC filter is attenuated; a first and a second phase locked loop providing reference inputs for a third phase locked loop; a second reference signal produced by said third phase locked loop having a second operating frequency; and an image rejection mixer having a first input coupled to an output of said bond-wire parallel LC filter and a second input coupled to said third phase locked loop to receive said second reference signal.
