<p> K63 One-Chip AM Radio Lab</p><p>Name: ______Date: ______</p><p>Up until now we have been using very simplistic circuits to construct an AM transmitter and receiver. We now want to explore a more in-depth radio receiver system. </p><p>Lab Worth: 50 points</p><p>2 to 3 people per group</p><p>Objective: this lab will demonstrate proper assembly of a complex AM receiver circuit. The students will de able to define, AGC, Sensitivity, and read a technical data sheet of a receiver system.</p><p>Following the instructions provided on the handout for this lab, carefully construct the receiver.</p><p>Complete the following questions and commands.</p><p>Working with your read, first read the handout on the K63 one-chip AM Radio.</p><p>Working together carefully assemble the receiver.</p><p>Instructor signature of completed project. ______(22 points)</p><p>Question 1: Draw a simplified block diagram of this circuit. Describe each section of what is happening. (6 points)</p><p>Question 2: Go onto a web browser and download the specifications for the ICMK484 chip. Attach to end of this lab. (2 points)</p><p>Question 3: What is the sensitivity for this chip. Hint, detail the various sensitivity issues contained in the data sheet. (4 points) Question 4: What is AGC? Define it. (4 points)</p><p>Question 5: The ICMK484 chip cannot actually amplify the RF signal directly, what happens to allow us to receive the audio data from the RF portion of the signal? (4 points)</p><p>Question 6: Why is there a ferrite bar to and coil of wire in this circuit? (4 points)</p><p>Question 7: Why are we concerned with sensitivity when we receive an RF signal?
