In electronic components, 'Demodulator' refers to an electronic device or circuit used to extract original information from a modulated signal. A modulated signal usually represents data transmitted from a high frequency or radio frequency signal, and can be either digital data or an analog signal.
The demodulator processes the modulated signal to restore or restore information. A modulated signal usually depends on the modulation scheme, and as such there are different types of demodulators. Some of the main demodulator types are:
AM Demodulator: Recovers the original modulated information from an amplitude modulated AM (Amplitude Modulation) signal. The AM demodulator detects changes in amplitude and extracts an informational signal.
FM Demodulator: Recovers the original modulated information from a frequency modulated FM (frequency modulation) signal. The FM demodulator detects changes in frequency and restores the information signal.
PM Demodulator: Recovers the original modulated information from a phase modulated PM (Phase Modulation) signal. The PM Demodulator detects the phase change and extracts the information signal.
Demodulators are used in a variety of applications including wireless communications, radio broadcasting, and television. They are used to recover and process audio, video, data, etc. by converting modulated signals into original information.
