Temperature compensation method to improve frequency stability of variable capacitance diode frequency modulation circuit Temperature compensation method to improve frequency stability of variable capacitance diode frequency modulation circuit In variable capacitance diode frequency modulation circuit, the instability of carrier frequency is mainly caused by factors such as temperature change, power supply voltage change, load impedance change, etc. The frequency stability can be improved by reducing the change of external factors, such as using a high-stability DC regulated power supply to reduce the change of power supply voltage, using a metal shield to reduce the change of external electromagnetic field, or improving the standardization of the resonant circuit, such as using a loop inductor and capacitor with stable parameters, using temperature compensation method, improving the installation process, and weakening the coupling between the oscillator tube and the resonant circuit. Among the above measures, the temperature compensation method has been widely used. Especially in military products, in order to meet the working performance requirements of products in high and low temperature environments, the temperature compensation method is often used to reduce the influence of temperature on various product indicators. In the variable capacitance diode frequency modulation circuit, a slight change in the reverse voltage of the control variable capacitance diode will cause frequency deviation. In circuit design, the carrier frequency is affected by temperature changes. The general rule is that the frequency becomes higher when the temperature rises, and the carrier frequency instantaneous starting frequency is lower when the temperature decreases. How to take into account the frequency offset at high and low temperatures? This article provides a simple compensation circuit to solve this problem well. [pic] Theoretical analysis and model of temperature compensation ● Analysis of variable capacitance diode frequency modulation circuit The variable capacitance diode frequency modulation circuit is shown in Figure 1. In the circuit, the carrier frequency is affected by temperature. The general rule is a negative temperature coefficient, that is, the frequency decreases when the temperature rises. It can be compensated by a capacitor with a negative temperature coefficient. The compensation capacitors are C6, C12, and C18, and the temperature coefficient group used is group C. C9, C10, and C11 have a greater impact on the distortion. A certain temperature coefficient capacitor can be selected to perform temperature compensation on the distortion. Due to the high frequency and large dispersion, there is no more accurate rule to follow. It is generally determined by experiments. The change range should not be too large. It is better to increase or decrease one gear. Some capacitors can be changed to two gears. Inductors L2, L3, and L4 are made of inductor coils with small temperature coefficient, low loss, and high Q value, which are made by sintering silver on a high-frequency ceramic skeleton. The Q value is greater than 200, and the temperature coefficient can reach (1 to 5) × 10-7...
