Patent attributes
A receiver includes a tuning circuit for picking up a reception signal having a desired frequency, a local oscillator for forming an oscillation signal, a first mixer for frequency-converting the reception signal into an IF signal by using the oscillation signal, an IF filter for deriving the IF signal from an output signal of the first mixer, a signal forming circuit for forming an AC signal having a frequency equal to a frequency of the IF signal, a second mixer to be supplied with the AC signal and the oscillation signal, a deriving circuit for deriving a signal having a desired frequency or an image frequency from an output of the second mixer, and a detector for detecting a level of the IF signal, wherein a self test is performed by supplying the signal derived from the deriving circuit to the tuning circuit and checking a detection output level of the detector.
