Tuners

Being too close to the truth got Jon Xiong's mother killed. While searching for answers, a murderous cult shows up at his door. A secretive organization called the Tuners comes to his aide and teaches him about his rare ability to travel between worlds called tuning. He grapples with his new superpower and is stuck between those who would maintain order in the multiverse and those who would destroy it. Jon must avoid the same gruesome fate as his mom and figure out what happened to his family.

This tract describes in detail the semiconductor components of the high-frequency front end-the electronic tuner-of televisions and VCRs. These high-frequency components substantially determine performance, including clarity of reception, and thus their quality is crucial to the success of electronic tuners. The semiconductor devices involved-voltage-variable capacitance diodes, band-switch diodes, dual-gate FETs, and others-are discussed in this book, as is their performance as mediators of tuning and amplification. Special emphasis is put on the analysis of distortion characteristics of tuning diodes and FETs, which are essential in providing tuners with high endurance against interfering signals. Design and fabrication processes well suited for mass production are also described. The content will be most informative not only to those involved in R&D and production of semiconductor devices, but also to high-frequency systems designers.

Capacitive screw, waveguide tuners are commonly used in microwave measurement systems and as devices for adjusting the impedance of various waveguide terminations. The design of a broadband tuner of this type has been a problem in the past. This paper describes a method for designing tuners which will work effectively for relatively wide ranges of frequencies.

Banished, disgraced and discriminated against, Raiden cannot catch a break. While trying to salvage what little of his former persona he can, he encounters Kurama, a nine-tailed fox yokai known as a kyuubi, informing him that he is one of seven Resonators, destined to bring peace to the land of Orasträdd. Unfortunately, belonging to a segregated society can lead to irresponsible decisions with one such decision leading Raiden down a chaotic path. Joined by Kurama & fellow Resonators Kalin, Haruka, Daichi and Ayase, a journey of redemption and self-discovery awaits Raiden on this dark and riveting adventure.
