Abstract: A tuner part of a digital satellite broadcasting receiver includes an IF signal demodulator part and an I/Q signal demodulator part. These demodulator parts are formed on different substrates, and covered with different chassis respectively. Low-pass filters are provided between an amplifier circuit of the IF signal demodulator part and an output terminal and between an IF signal input terminal of the I/Q signal demodulator part and a baseband converter circuit respectively. Further, an AGC detector circuit for detecting the level of an IF signal for the baseband converter circuit is provided for controlling the amplifier circuit of the IF signal demodulator part by its AGC voltage.

Abstract: There is provided a low-cost satellite broadcast tuner capable of receiving and processing both a QPSK modulation signal and an FM signal while assuring simple connection of an LNB (low noise block) to the tuner. A single front-end section including an RF stage, a mixer, a local oscillator circuit, an IF stage, an AGC loop is used for both an FM detector and an I/Q quadrature detector, so that both the FM signal and the QPSK modulation signal are received and processed in the single front-end section. In the above case, power supplied to the FM detector for detecting the FM signal, and power supplied to a local oscillator circuit required for detecting the QPSK modulation signal is turned off when receiving the FM signal.
