Abstract

See full text

An AFC switch circuit is controlled by an select input logic signal for providing a selected output signal to control the local oscillator in a miniature FM receiver. The output signal has a voltage equal to either an AFC signal voltage for AFC operation of the receiver, or a reference voltage for synthesized operation of the receiver. The AFC switch circuitry employs bipolar transistors in current mirror configurations to minimize voltage offset and to enhance isolation between the unselected input and the output while operating on a power supply voltage less than 3 volts.
