General Description
The NXP TEF6686 and TEF6688 are single-chip radio ICs that
include an AM/FM radio tuner and software-defined radio signal
processing. These low-IF, high-performance ICs extend NXP’s
broad, industry-proven portfolio for single-tuner car radios,
and offer outstanding radio performance. The wide range of
features and state-of-the-art software algorithms let designers
optimize system costs in high-end premium applications.
Both devices are available in HVQFN packages that save PCB
space and support dual- and multi-layer PCBs. The radio
receiver includes an AM/FM front-end, a tuning synthesizer,
channel filtering, FM channel equalization, FM multipath
improvement, demodulation, FM stereo decoding, weak-signal
processing, noise blanking, and RDS, and has an interface to a
DARC demodulator/decoder.
Both devices provide stereo audio in digital format on an I2S
output and an audio DAC output. When used with the NXP
radio coprocessor SAF356x or SAF360x, the TEF6688 supports
the digital radio standards HD Radio and Digital Radio
Mondiale (DRM).
