The 1 IF amplifier provides a typical gain of 7 dB to compensate for losses caused by a ceramic filter. The input
st
and output of the 1 IF amplifier is matched internally to 330 Ω, permitting direct connections to 330 Ω ceramic
filters. If filters with different impedances are used, an impedance matching network is required.
st
nd
A second filter can be connected between the 1 IF amplifier and the 2 IF amplifier/limiter to increase the
nd
receiver selectivity. Alternately, the RF mixer output can be directly connected to the 2 IF amplifier as shown
in Figure 7. A single ceramic filter can also be used to connect terminal 41 to terminal 39. In this case, a
dc-blocking capacitor of 0.1 µF should be used to connect terminal 44 to 42 to maximize receiver sensitivity.
