ABSTRACT:
A digital down-converter having a low spurious level and a high frequency precision without increasing power consumption of a local oscillator. A first mixer receives, as a first IF input signal, a digital signal obtained by sampling a received signal with an RF signal or an IF signal, and converts the first IF input signal to a second IF signal using the first local oscillator. A digital filter suppresses an outband signal of the second IF signal provided from the first mixer. A second mixer converts an output of the digital filter to a detection process frequency using the second local oscillator. An available frequency step of the first local oscillator is larger than an available frequency step of the second local oscillator.
