The FM local oscillator consists of a transistor in
grounded collector configuration. The negative
resistance at the base of the transistor is generated by an
external capacitor connected between emitter FMOSCE
(Pin 5) and GNDRF (Pin 4) An other external capacitor
is connected between base FMOSCB (Pin 6) and emitter
FMOSCE (Pin 5) which increases the resistance at the
emitter and leads to a higher oscillator swing. The
negative resistance at FMOSCB is approximately 250 W.
Therefore, the resonant LO tank resistance of
approximately 5 kW (depends on Q-factor of the coil) is
transformed to this magnitude via a capacitor.
OSCOUT
8
The FM pre-amplifier input FMIN (Pin 28) consists of a
transistor grounded base circuit (T2) which provides
excellent noise performance and large signal behavior. It
is recommended to connect a source impedance of 100 W
in order to achieve optimal performance. The dc current
through the amplifying transitor is reduced by the internal
AGC. This means in the case of large input signals, the
input ac current is bypassed via the wideband AGC
transistor T1. A capacitor is connected between FMAGC
(Pin 2) and GNDRF (Pin 4). It shortens the transistor base
to GNDRF and it also serves for smoothing of the AGC
voltage. A tuned RF circuit is connected between FMRF
(Pin 3) and VS (Pin 27). The amplified RF signal is fed
internally to the mixer input.

AMOSC
The ceramic resonator of the stereo decoder PLL circuit
is used as a stop signal detector for AM signals. For this
purpose, the parallel resonance frequency of the
resonator, which is unloaded about 456 kHz, is reduced
by an internal load capacitor down to 455 kHz. Therefore,
the AM IF must be 455 kHz. The internal loading
capacitor is defined by the current through AMSADJ
(Pin 9) to GND. An external resistor is connected
between AMSADJ (Pin 9) and GND. It allows the
alignment of the stop signal center frequency. The width
of the stop window is typicaly 800 Hz. If AM searchmode is not activated, the pin is internally pulled to
ground.

mixer has to be loaded into external IF-tank circuits
refered to VREF (Pin 14). Q-factor of IF coils must not be
lower than 50.

The discriminator allows the connection of a ceramic

adjustment of center frequency versus temperature can
only be achieved by using a LC tank. This performs a

A capacitor is connected between AFSM (Pin 11) and
GND for smoothing of the FM-AF. This is necessary to
generate a modulation independent stop signal. (Because
the deviation of the FM signal (75 kHz) can be greater
than the stop signal window (25 kHz)). In the
AM-search-mode, the external capacitor smoothes the
demodulated AM-IF-signal.

This pin is driven by a current corresponding to the level
of the FM or AM-IF-signal. The required external load
consists of a resistor (100 to 150 kW) in parallel with an
external capacitor (e.g., 10 mF necessary to achieve a
good THD in AM mode and to supress AF influence in
FM mode). The voltage at this pin controls the high cut
and mono/ stereo blend function in the case of reception
mode. These functions can be affected by the designer by
choosing different values of the load resistor.
The signal at the output CTRLB (Pin 23) shows stereo or
mono reception. The stereo reception is indicated if the
voltage is higher than 1.2 V, otherwise it is mono.
Furthermore there is the possibility to force the receiver
circuit to mono by applying an external control voltage
<0.8 V at CTRLB. If the search mode is selected, the low
active stop signal appears at CTRLB. If the output
CTRLB is connected directly to the I/O-port of the microcontroller, the high level of CTRLB has to be adapted by
connecting a resistor between CTRLB and GND.
VREF
A internal voltage regulator generates a stable reference
voltage of 2.4 V which is needed for all function blocks
of the IC. An external capacitor has to be connected to
GND in order to achieve stability and noise suppression.

The reception mode, search mode, as well as mute
function and search sensitivity can be selected by
applying a control voltage at CTRLA (Pin 22). If the
control voltage is higher than 0.8 V, the receiver circuit
is in the reception mode, otherwise it is in search mode.
When reducing the control voltage between 1.3 and 0.8 V,
the AF level output at OUTR, OUTL (Pin 18, 19) is
reduced (mute function). In the search mode (0.7 to 0 V),
the voltage size determines the degree of the search
sensitivity.
Figure 17.
By applying a low voltage (<1.1 V) at AMFM (Pin 26),
the receiver circuit is switched to AM mode. If Pin
AMFM is open, the FM mode is selected. This switching
function can easily be performed by a microcontroller
with “open drain” I/O-ports. A capacitor has to be
connected between AMFM and GND for FM mode
operation. It serves for smoothing the control voltage of
the pilot canceller.

The MPX signal is applied to MPXIN (Pin 24). It is fed
to the stereo decoder. The input resistance into Pin 24 is
approximately 10 kW. It is recommended to align the
channel separation by an RC network between MPXIN
and MPXOUT (Pin 25) due to the tolerances in group
delay of the IF filter.

VREF
A ceramic resonator of 456 kHz parallel resonance
frequency (at 30 pF chip internal load capacitance) is
connected between CRES (Pin 20) and GND (necessary
for the pilot regeneration). It should be mounted very
close to Pin 20 in order to avoid spurios radiation. In the
AM (V26 < 1.1 V) search (V22 < 0.8 V) mode, the
resonator is used for stop signal generation. The parallel
resonance frequency is then reduced down to 455 kHz by
adjusting the current into Pin 9 AMSADJ.

mode (depending on the signal level).

The open collector output of OUTR/OUTL (Pin 18/19)
requires an external resistor of about 4.7 kW to ground.
The de-emphasis may be achieved by an additional

Functional Description
Search Mode
FM
The search-mode is selected by applying a control voltage
less than 0.7 V at pin CTRLA.
A tuned RF circuit on the collector is necessary for
amplifying and filtering of the FM signal which is fed
internally to the mixer. It consists of a double balanced
Gilbert Cell.
The LO signal is generated by an integrated oscillator.
The buffered LO signal is used to drive a PLL. The
IF-signal (10.7 MHz) is coupled out at the mixers output
and fed via a ceramic filter to the demodulator. The
demodulated AF signal is available at MPXOUT.
50
40
VANT ( dB m V )
The antenna signal is fed via a tuned RF-circuit to the
integrated pre-stage which consists of a transistor
grounded base circuit. To protect the prestage against
overload, an automatic gain control (AGC) is included on
the chip. Additional there is the possibility to extend the
AGC control range by use of an external pin diode. For
economic applications a hybrid-band pass filter can be
used instead of a tuned RF-circuit.

The antenna signal is fed directly to the mixer. In order to
ensure the level control which is necessary in the case of
large signals, the generator resistance has to be higher
than 25 kW. The LO signal is generated by an integrated
oscillator. The buffered LO signal is used to drive the
PLL. If the AM-search mode is required, the IF must be
455 kHz. The IF output signal is fed via a ceramic filter
to the demodulator. The demodulated AF signal is
available at MPXOUT.
CTRLA
The search sensitivity can be chosen by varying of the
control voltage in the range of 0 to 0.7 V. If the control
voltage is 0 V, the highest sensitivity is achieved.
Reception Mode
In the reception-mode there is a possibility for muting by
varying the control voltage in the range of 1.3 to 0.8 V. If
the control voltage is 0.8 V, the highest mute depth is
achieved.
By applying a control voltage at pin CTRLA the mode of
the receiver can be selected.

Ozone Depleting Substances Policy Statement
It is the policy of TEMIC TELEFUNKEN microelectronic GmbH to
1. Meet all present and future national and international statutory requirements.
2. Regularly and continuously improve the performance of our products, processes, distribution and operating systems
with respect to their impact on the health and safety of our employees and the public, as well as their impact on
the environment.
It is particular concern to control or eliminate releases of those substances into the atmosphere which are known as
ozone depleting substances ( ODSs).
The Montreal Protocol ( 1987) and its London Amendments ( 1990) intend to severely restrict the use of ODSs and
forbid their use within the next ten years. Various national and international initiatives are pressing for an earlier ban
on these substances.
TEMIC TELEFUNKEN microelectronic GmbH semiconductor division has been able to use its policy of
continuous improvements to eliminate the use of ODSs listed in the following documents.
1. Annex A, B and list of transitional substances of the Montreal Protocol and the London Amendments respectively
2 . Class I and II ozone depleting substances in the Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990 by the Environmental
Protection Agency ( EPA) in the USA
3. Council Decision 88/540/EEC and 91/690/EEC Annex A, B and C ( transitional substances ) respectively.
TEMIC can certify that our semiconductors are not manufactured with ozone depleting substances and do not contain
such substances.
We reserve the right to make changes to improve technical design and may do so without further notice.
Parameters can vary in different applications. All operating parameters must be validated for each customer
application by the customer. Should the buyer use TEMIC products for any unintended or unauthorized
application, the buyer shall indemnify TEMIC against all claims, costs, damages, and expenses, arising out of,
directly or indirectly, any claim of personal damage, injury or death associated with such unintended or
unauthorized use.
