Why do we need a diode in an AM demodulation circuit?
The incoming signal is a modulated carrier wave, right? If we only apply a low-pass filter to it, we will get an AC signal that can be passed to a speaker directly, right?
Using a diode, we end up ...

Synchronous demodulation
In the analog switch-based synchronous demodulation of a signal, say 1 MHz, how does the turn-on and turn-off time of the switch impact the demodulated and filtered DC output (demodulation here is ...

Frequency demodulation circuit
This is how I designed the frequency modulation circuit, but I cannot perform the demodulation process. It can be done with a PLL but I couldn't install it. How can I demodulate?

Reading a spectrum analyser in MATLAB
When demodulating an AM waveform why is there a frequency spike on the spectrum analyser of exactly two times the carrier frequency with an upper and lower sideband. It is past the cut off frequency ...

What Exactly Is Meant by a 2nd Order Phase Locked Loop?
I'm teaching myself about polyphase clock sync for demodulation of OQPSK. An article from gnuradio.org entitled "Polyphase Clock Sync" makes references to a 2nd order loop. The context seems ...

How can I design a beta modulator block
I am simulating a block beta modulator, but the problem is to switch uses in that block. What component do I have to use in place of U3? I did not find this type of any component in LTspice library ...

Simple detection of a transient FM frequency shift
I have an application with a 2D array of inductive sensors for position detection of an object on a plane. I have experimented with inductance to digital converters (https://www.ti.com/product/LDC1314)...

Simple envelope detector
I demodulated a signal using this simple envelope detector. When I checked the output, the amplitude was decreased - it was not the same as the original signal that was modulated (from the forward ...

FM demodulation circuit
I'm doing an FM demodulator circuit. I am copying the circuit from LTspice in the first image) to Multsim (the second image.)
Is what I did in Multisim correct? How can I get a graph from Multisim ...

Name of RF demodulation technique using a demultiplexer
I can't remember the name of a demodulation technique I read the whitepaper on. My memory is not exact but I remember the following vaugely:
Core to it is a 1:4 demultiplexer run at 4x the desired ...

What is the motivation behind ADA2200-style half-wave synchronous demodulator?
I came across an interesting IC that contains most components of a little lock-in amplifier (except output LPF) - ADA2200. I am curious however why they opted for such a design where instead of ...

BPSK demodulation on scilab
I have a csv file which contains the time and magnitude of the BPSK modulated waveform. I now want to demodulate this. Its bitrate is fc/128 (~106 kbit/s) and the carrier frequency is fc/16 (~847 kHz)....

Analog television: What is the difference between the first IF and second (demodulated) IF?
I am trying to understand what kind of changes occur to a signal in the chips which sit between the tuner and, for example the FM audio demodulator.
Take the attached example - the TDA2546A. It takes ...
