Receiver IF circuit, RX part of CRFRT
The receiver part of CRFRT consists of an AGC amplifier of 57 dB gain, a
mixer and a buffer amplifier for the last IF. The mixer of the circuit down
converts the received signal to the last IF frequency. After external filtering
the signal is amplified and fed to baseband circuitry. The supply current
can be switched OFF by an internal switch, when the RX is OFF.
