Abstract: A thick film multilayer substrate using a green ceramic sheet is constructed such that at least three conductor layers and at least two dielectric layers are alternately arranged in turn on the green ceramic sheet substrate, a power supply line being formed in the second conductor layer and thus interposed between the first and third conductor layers in which grounded conductors are formed.

Abstract: A high-frequency input circuit suitable for use in a television receiver, which includes a tuning circuit which can operate with a reduced loss and can be tuned to signals in, for example, the VHF and UHF bands at the same time. The high-frequency input circuit provides an integrated tuner capable of receiving all the signals within the range from the VHF band to the UHF band.

Abstract: A self-oscillating mixer circuit to operate mainly at SHF band comprises a single-gate FET and a micro strip line. The gate or source terminal of the FET is connected to a radio frequency signal input line. A feedback path is provided between the drain terminal and the gate or source terminal. An intermediate frequency output line is connected to the drain electrode of the FET. A dielectric resonator is coupled to the radio frequency signal input line to improve the stability of an oscillator frequency and to suppress leakage of a local oscillator signal.

Abstract: A self-oscillating mixer circuit suitable for a television receiver is provided using characteristically a single or two switching diodes. During VHF receiving, the mixer circuit operates in a self-oscillating mixing mode under an optimum bias condition, while, during UHF receiving, it operates under an optimum bias condition for intermediate frequency amplification, ceasing its local oscillation.
