Describes in detail the semiconductor components of the electronic tuner of televisions and VCRs. Covers voltage-variable capacitance diodes band-switch diodes dual-gate FETs and others including their performance as mediators of tuning and amplification. Emphasizes coverage of the analysis of distortion characteristics of tuning diodes and FETs. Also covers design and fabrication processes best suited for mass production. |Semiconductor Devices for Electronic Tuners | Physics
