Abstract:
A double frequency-conversion receiving circuit used for a radio-frequency SIM card, including a low-noise amplifier (01), a high-medium-frequency mixer (02), a low-medium-frequency mixer (03), a local oscillator (04), a quadrature I/Q circuit (05), and a low-medium-frequency processing circuit (07), characterized in that it also includes a frequency divider (06) that performs N frequency dividing to a high-local-oscillation signal generated by the local oscillator (04), wherein the divided low-local-oscillation signal is inputted into the quadrature I/Q circuit (05), the outputted I/Q local-oscillation signal is inputted into the low-medium-frequency mixer (03) to obtain, after mixing, a low-medium-frequency signal, and the low-medium-frequency signal is further processed by the low-medium-frequency processing circuit (07) to output the signal needed, which has gone through the double frequency-conversion. The scheme described in this invention can improve the signal image frequency to approximately 3 GHz through smart frequency distribution without using an external image rejection filter. This effectively solves the image rejection problem when the radio-frequency SIM card is used in the 2.4 GHz ISM frequency band, and reduces power consumption of the chip.
