SANYO LA1780

Ordering number : ENN5724A
Monolithic Linear IC
LA1780M
Single-Chip Tuner IC for Car Radios
Overview
The LA1780M integrates all six blocks required in a car
radio tuner on a single chip. The LA1780M is based on
the LA1888NM, and features improvements to each of the
blocks; improvements designed to provide improved noise
characteristics, especially for noise related to multipath,
three-signal intermodulation distortion, and two-signal
suppression.
Functions
• FM front end
• FM IF
• Noise canceller
• Multiplex
• AM up-conversion
• FM/AM switch
• MRC
Features
• Improved noise reduction methods
— The FM front end provides excellent 3-signal
characteristics equivalent to those of the LA1193M.
— Superlative listenability due to improved medium and
weak field noise canceller characteristics.
— Improved separation characteristics
— Anti-birdie filter
— Improved AM and FM thermal characteristics
— Excellent FM signal meter linearity
— Modified N.C. circuit for improved noise rejection
• Double conversion AM tuner (up conversion)
Reduces the number of external components required as
compared to earlier double conversion tuners, in
particular, no crystal is required (when used in
conjunction with the LC72144).
• Sample-to-sample variation reduction circuit built into
the FM IF circuit.
(Fixed resistors are used for the SD, keyed AGC, mute
on adjustment, ATT, SNC, and HCC functions.)
• Since the LA1780M retains the block structure of the
LA1888NM, products using that IC can be easily
converted, allowing further end product miniaturization.

• Noise canceller notes
The characteristics of the noise canceller have been
improved by implementing the circuit that determines the
gate time in logic. In earlier noise canceller circuits, since
the time constant was determined with an RC circuit such
as the one shown in figure 5, the rise time was influenced
by the RC circuit time constant as show in figure 6. This
meant that the rise was delayed and the associated
switching delay resulted in a reduction of the circuit’s
ability to exclude noise.
Figure 5
In the LA1780M, the rise time is made shorter by
implementing the circuit that determines the gate time in
logic. This allows the LA1780M to eliminate noise
reliably.
