Antenna damping circuit and high frequency receiver employing same

摘要

An antenna damping circuit in which the frequency characteristics of damping amount can be made substantially flat by providing a resistor (Ra) between PIN diodes (D1, D2) having a resistance varying upon application of a control voltage (Vc) and a capacitive dummy antenna circuit (10), and setting its resistance high enough to neglect the capacity of the dummy antenna circuit (10) sufficiently when the dummy antenna circuit (10) is viewed from the side of the PIN diodes (D1, D2) thereby substantially eliminating the influence of capacity of the dummy antenna circuit (10).
