DESCRIPTION
The M491B is a monolithic N-MOS LSI circuit including a Floating-gate Non-Volatile Memory for
storage of up to 16 stations. Tuning of the station
is performed with a 8192 step D/A converter, using
the principle of voltage synthesis. It is designed for
7-segment LED displays. Direct memory selection
is possible only from remote control while Up/Down
memory scanning is possible on the set and also
from remote control. An option input for 8 or 16
stations is available. The circuit also includes a
PCM remote control receiver operating in conjuncSeptember 1992
tion with the transmitter M708. The highly reliable
transmission code ensures error-free signal detection even in presence of high noise conditions.
Search of the station is possible in automatic or
manual modes. The circuit can operate with a
Digital or Linear AFT control. The Digital AFT mode
is necessary for automatic search and requires an
external circuit (TDA4433 or equivalent, e.g. dual
comparator plus TV station detector) to convert the
AFC-S-curve into an Up/Down command. Fine tuning (detuning) is also possible with different modes
of operation. The circuit is assembled in 40-pindual
in-line plastic package.

DESCRIPTION (All timings at fclock = 500kHz)
PIN 1 : VSS
The substrate of the IC is connectedto this pin. This
is the reference pin for all parameters of the IC.
PIN 2 : MEMORY SUPPLY VOLTAGE
A supply voltage of 25 ± 1 V has to be applied to
this pin during the modify and read cycles.
MODIFY CYCLE
A modify cycle consists of three steps :
1. All ”1”s are written in the bits of the selected word.
2. All bits of the selected word are erased (all ”0”s)
3. The new content is written.
Thus a constant aging of all the bits of the word is
4/16
obtained.
During both write and erase cycles the memory
status is checked continuously ; therefore after
each writeor erase pulsea read operationis carried
out. The write or the erase operations are stopped
as soon as the result of the read operation is valid.
WRITE CYCLE. The peak of the current flowing
through pin 2 during a write operation is shown in
fig. 1, while fig. 2 shows the envelope of the same
current.
The typical write time is 3-4 ms for the first cycles
and increases to about 30 ms after 1000 cycles.

ERASE CYCLE
Figure 3 shows the timing and the waveform of the
current flowing through Pin 2 during the erase
operation. The peak current is 7mA (max) during
the erase cycle and 6mA (max) during the read
cycle. The typical erase time is 10ms for a new
device and increases with the number of modify
operations up to 200ms after 1000 cycles.
In order to protect the memory in case of failure of
some bits the modify operation is stopped after
1sec.

PIN 3 : MEMORY TIMING OUTPUT
This output gives the timing for the pulses to be
applied at Pin 2 during the modify and read cycles.
The output consists of an open drain transistor.
PIN 4 : FINE TUNING D/A (see Figure 5)
A D/A converter with 16-step resolution and a frequency of 15kHz can be used to generate a voltage
which, if fed to a varicap diode in parallel to the AFC
discriminator, will detune the receiver by a small ∆f
while maintaining the action of the Digital AFT. This
output can be used in conjunction with both Linear
and Digital AFT modes of operations.
The Fine tuning function operates as follows :
- At the start of any automatic or manual search,
the output is set at the mid range.
- When the search has been completed it is possible to operate on FT ± commands.
The store command memorizes this information
together with the 13 tuning voltage bits and 2
information bits.
- Modification time of FT D/A is of 1 step every
200ms if issued locally or every 2 received signals
from Remote control transmitter.
PIN 5 : TUNING D/A (see Figure 6)
A 213 = 8192 step pulse modulated signal for the
tuning voltage is available on this pin.
Pulse modulation is implemented by combination
of a rate multiplier and pulse width principle.
With a tuning voltage increasing from zero, the
number of pulses increases continuously up to
28 = 256 ; starting from this point the number of
pulses remains the same but the pulses get larger
until they reach the maximum content of the internal counter. The output consists of an open drain
transistor which offers a low impedance to ground
when in the ON state.

PIN 6 : DIGITAL AFT STATUS OUTPUT
(see Figure 7)
This output shows the status of the digital AFT. It is
low when the digital AFT is enabled and it can
directly drive a LED.
The output consists of an open drain transistor.
PINS 7 & 8 : OSCILLATOR INPUT/OUTPUT
(see Figure 8)
The frequency of the clock oscillator should be
between 445 and 510kHzusing a low-cost ceramic
resonator. In these conditions the value of the
reference frequency of the transmitter can be in the
same range. In other words the transmitter and the
receiver can operate with different reference frequencies.

PIN 9 : VDD
The supply voltage has to be comprised in the
range 4.75 to 5.25V. When it is applied an internal
power on reset of 0.5s is generated.
The memory position 1 is automatically read if the
mains on option input (Pin 25) is grounded.
PIN 10 : TEST
This pin is used for testing and has to be connected
to VSS.
PIN 11 : I.R. SIGNAL INPUT (see Figure 9)
The integrated receiver decodes signals transmitted by M708, address 9.
The minimum signal to be applied is 0.5V peak-topeak. (AC-coupled).
The receiver input section performs the following
tests on the incoming signal to achieve the necessary noise immunity :
- measurement of the pulse distance (time base
synchronization)
7/16
M491B
- check of the position of the received bits opening
window at the time bases
- check of the parity bit
- checkof the absenceof pulses between the parity
bit and the stop pulse
- checkof noise level ; the receiver checks parasitic
transients inside and outside the time windows.
If the above test conditions are not fulfilled, the
received word is rejected and not decoded. If the
received signal is acknowledged as a valid word it
is stored an decoded.
The end of transmission will be acknowledged by
receiving the end of transmission code or by means
of an internal timer if the transmission remains
interrupted for more than about 550ms.

M491 B Pin 13
TDA4433 Pin 6
L
H
L
H
These inputs have two different functions depending on whether the system is in the search or in
normal operation (AFT control).
The inputs have internal pull-up resistors of 30kΩ
typ.
A) Search mode : after depressing the Automatic
search or preset keys, the levels of the signals
coming from the TDA4433, applied to these
pins, control the search function and determine
when the search must stop, i.e. a TV stationhas
been recognized.
The circuit operates in the following sequence
(see Figure 10 for reference) :
1 - after pressing the search start key the
search occurs in the FAST UP mode.
2 - eventual transitions available on these
inputs are ignored during the first 15 search
steps if the system is in the UHF or CATV
bands.
If the system operates in VHF I and III bands,
the first 60 search steps are ignored. The
acceptance delay of 15 (60) search steps has
been introduced to prevent the system from
stopping at the previous station.
Aft er this time the FAST UP speed is
automatically reduced to half during each UP
signal (MEDIUM UP = FAST UP/2).
A DOWN signal preceded by at least an UP
signal will set the search to MEDIUM DOWN
mode (FAST UP/4).
3 - the next UP signal will switch the search to
SLOW UP speed (61Hz).
At this point the systems is in normal AFT
operation.

B) Digital AFT operation : when a station is
perfectly tuned, the input signals coming from
TDA4433 are at middle condition.
If the tuning moves lower than the threshold
below 38.9MHz, the Pin 12 is put H and Pin 13
is put L ; the 13 bit internal counter is moved
SLOW UP speed to increase the varicap
voltage.
When a detuning occurs in the opposite
direction the input 12 goes Low and 13 goes
High and the tuning voltage falls at VERY
SLOW DOWN speed (7.6Hz).
The increase or decrease of the tuning voltage
is stopped as soon as the input returns to
middle conditions.
Therefore during normal operation Pins 12 and
13 act as digital AFT control commands.
C) Recall from memory : when the digital AFT is
enabled and data is recalled from Memory, a
fixed value of 8 steps (≈ 31.2mV) is subtracted
from the tuning voltage.
This corresponds to a detuning of 0.6MHz
(UHF) and of 0.3MHz in VHF III into that part of
the IF response curve which corresponds to the
fully transmitted sideband.
At this point the AFT operation takes over as
described in point B above and the exact tuning
is achieved in about 0.2 sec.
This feature increases the AFT capture range
and fullfills the stability requirements of the
tu ne r, voltage refere nces and the D/A
converter.
If the Digital AFT is disabled (Pin 17 at VSS), the
memory content is read without any change.

PIN 15 : VOLUME D/A OUTPUT
This output delivers a square wave signal of 7.8
kHz and duty cycle variable in 63 steps. In case of
a continuous command for varying the volume, the
duty cycle is changed at the rate of the transmitted
signal (approximately every 102ms with fref =
500kHz) or every 112ms if issued locally.
Overflow and underflow protection are provided.
The volume output can be switched to VSS and
reset to the previous level by means of the Mute
On/Off command. It is also reset by the Volume
Up/Down and the Mains On/Off commands.
The volume is muted for about 1s at each mains
on and off command during the power on reset time
and program change (0.5s).
At the first power on reset of VDD the volume D/A
is set at the level 21/64. The last level is preserved
until VDD is not removed.

PIN 16 : LINEAR AFT DEFEAT OUTPUT
This output is normally High and goes Low when a
Manual Up/Down command is issued.
It returns High with a 1 second delay from the
release of the key, in order to give the user the
possibility of the tuning adjustment without the AFT
intervention. It goes Low for 0.5s during program
change.

PIN 17 : DIGITAL AFT ENABLE INPUT
If this input is connected to VSS (GND), the digital
AFT loop is always disabled. If pin 17 is left open
or is connected to VDD, the digital AFT is automatically enabled at power on. When a manual
up/down search commandis issued, the digitalAFT
loop is disabled and the digital AFT status output is
inhibited.
The digital AFT loop is restored by the commands:
Digital AFT on/Automaticsearch/Automatic preset.
PINS 18-19-20-21-22-23-24 :
KEYBOARD MATRIX (see Figure 13)
A command is accepted if the corresponding con-
tact has been closed for a minimum time of 30ms.
Local input commands and I.R. commands have
the same priority.
If a complete I.R. command has been received, the
local inputs are blocked until the command has
been executed and the ”end of transmission code”
generated.
Viceversa an I.R. signal cannot be decoded until
an issued local command has been executed.
MEMORY UP/DOWN
Depressing one of these two commands, the memory position is stepped in the UP or DOWN direction.
If the key is kept closed, the channels are stepped
UP/DOWN every 0.5 second or every 5 commands
from the transmitter.
The memory locations 9 to 16 are jumped if pin 31
is at GND level.
BAND SELECTION
The bands can be selected either directly or with a
step-by-step command in the following sequence :
VHF I
CATV
VHF III
UHF
VHF I and so on
Only one band change is performed at each accepted command.
Disabled bands are automatically skipped. A band
can be disabled connecting the corresponding output to VSS.

The tuning and band information can be stored
using the store/memory addressing command.
The search can be stopped by a memory selection
command.
b) AUTOMATIC PRESET. The search starts from
the lowest memory address, tuning voltage and
VHF I band as described in automatic search
mode.
When an active station is encountered, the corresponding tuning and band information is automatically stored in the Non-Volatile Memory.
Afterwards the system starts to search for the next
station. The cycle is repeated until all bands have
been scanned or the tuning information has been
stored into all address locations. After completing
this cycle the system reads out the tuning information of the lowest address.
c) MANUAL UP/DOWN WITH DIGITAL AND LINEAR AFT (pin 17 at VDD). Holding one of these
commands pressed, the tuning voltage is increased or decreased.
During this operation, the Digital AFT is automatically defeated and can only be reconnected with
the ”AFT on” command or by an Automatic search
or preset command.
The search speed is kept at minimum (there is no
increment with the time)
a) AUTOMATIC SEARCH. The search starts from
the actual tuning and band position. During the
search the tuning voltage is always changing from
lower to higher voltage levels. When the end of the
band is reached the search restarts from the beginning of the next band after a 480 ms interruption
with the sequence of step-by-step band selection.
Disabled bands are automaticallyskipped.
The search is stopped when the first station is
found or if a channel selection command is given.
Stop of the automatic search is determined by the
STOP/AFTinputs controlledby the TDA4433 which
converts the AFC-S-curve into an up/down command.
At the end of the search the up/down command
controls the correct tuning acting on the counter of
the voltage synthesizer (Digital AFT).
It is important to call the attention to the Digital AFT
capture range which is larger than the normallinear
AFT as shown in fig. 14.
Figure 14
Band
CAPTURE RANGE
DIGITAL AFT
CAPTURE RANGE
Additionally the use of the Digital AFT allows storage of the tuning information corresponding to the
zero point of the AFC-S-curve. This cannot be
guaranteed using the Linear AFT method only. The
latter is a cheaper system, because it does not
require the use of the TDA4433 but it cannot guarantee what described above.
As a result of the use of the Digital AFT, the requirements for stability of the tuner, of the reference
voltage source and of stability of the D/A converter
are less critical.
Tuning speed in automatic search, if no station is
found is :

In case of command received from remote control,
the counter is increased/decreased every two received commands.
No band switching is provided at the upper or lower
tuning positions.
The volume is automatically muted 3 second after
the key pressure is immediately restored at the
release of the key.
d) MANUAL UP/DOWN WITH LINEAR AFT (pin 17
at VSS). When this control is used the Digital AFT
is disabled.
The Linear AFT output goes low after an up or down
command is issued and remains Low for 1 second
after the release of the key.

STORE COMMANDS
2 modes of operations are available.
a)store
b)memory addressing
In order to protect the memory, the store function
is internally disabled after one store cycle.
It is enabled after a program change or a tuning
operation (it is not disabled by the Digital AFT
control).
a) STORE. The tuning information (Tuning D/A,
Fine tuning D/A and band) is stored in a previously
selected memory address when this command is
issued.
b) MEMORY ADDRESSING. The tuning information can also be stored with this command followed
by the memory position selection.
When this command is accepted all the memory
LEDs are blanked.
Selection of the memory position initiates the store
operations and restores the display.
MUTE ON/OFF
See description of pin 15.
PIN 25 : MAINS ON OPTION INPUT
If connected to VSS (GND) the Mains output is
automatically switched on when VDD is applied and
memory 1 is read.
If it is connected to VDD the circuit goes in stand by
condition.
PIN 26 : MAINS ON/OFF OUTPUT
Switch on of the set is controlled by the Mains on
command issued for more than 0.3 s. The output
transistor is set in the off condition to drive through
an integrated pull-up resistor, an external NPN
transistor.
491B-06.TBL

Figure 15
At each Mains on command a memory read out
occurs. AVPP (+ 25 V) is required for this operation,
a 1 second delay starts when the mains output is
switched off. For a correct reading of the memory
the VPP supply voltage must reach the value of 25
V within 1 second after a Mains on command.
In case of automatic switch on at power on caused
by pin 25 at GND, the total delay is of 1.13 second
(0.13s for VDD power on reset plus 1 second for
mains on).
The Mains on/off command, if repeated, will switch
the output on (set off).
The last address information is preserved until VDD
is present.
Next Mains on command will switch the set at the
previously selected memory address and a read
operation will be performed.
PINS 27-28-29-30-33-34-35-36:
MEMORY ADDRESS OUTPUT
These pins operate as output only for display of the
selected memory location. Max drive capability is
of 15 mA/1.2 V with the exception of pin 36 that is
of 30 mA/1.5 V.
Direct memory selection is only possible by remote
control. A local memory up/down command is available in case of emergency.
Pin 32 must be grounded.
If pin 31 is grounded, the memory position 9 to 16
are skipped in case of memory up/down commands.
For normal operation pin 31 can be left open or,
better, connected to VDD.
PINS 31-32
See description of pins 27 to 30 and 33 to 36.
PINS 37-38-39-40 : BAND INPUT/OUTPUT
These outputs are provided to select up to 4 bands
via external PNPs.
If one or more bands have to be skipped, the
corresponding outputs have to be short-circuited to
VSS.
