Abstract
First and second rectangular signals which are 90.degree. out of phase with each other are derived by comparators and an RS flip-flop from a symmetrical triangular wave signal. The first rectangular signal is halved in frequency by a frequency divider, the output of which is supplied to an adder. The second rectangular wave signal is also delivered to the adder. An output from the adder is converted by a bandpass filter into a sine-wave subcarrier signal in synchronism with a stereo pilot signal in an FM stereo tuner. The first and second rectangular signals may be derived by a pair of D-type flip-flops from a pulse signal.
