A television tuner includes: low band and high-band receiving units; a
mixer that frequency-converts low-band television signals from the
low-band receiving unit or high-band television signals from the
high-band receiving unit; first and second switching diodes that couple
the low-band or high-band receiving unit and the mixer to each other,
respectively; and a transistor which applies a bias voltage to one end of
each of the switching diodes. The emitter of the transistor is grounded
and the collector is pulled up to a power supply through a resistor.
ON/OFF of the switching diodes are switched to be opposite to each other.
The other end of each of the switching diodes is connected to the
collector through a first inductance element. The collector of the
transistor is connected to one end of a second inductance element, and
the other end of the second inductance element is grounded in a
high-frequency manner.
