CXA3250AN
Description of Functions
The CXA3250AN is a ground wave broadcast tuner IC which converts frequencies to IF in order to tune and
detect only the desired reception frequency of VHF, CATV and UHF band signals.
In addition to the mixer, local oscillation and IF amplifier circuits required for frequency conversion to IF, this
IC also integrates a PLL circuit for local oscillation frequency control onto a single chip.
The functions of the various circuits are described below.
1. Mixer circuit
This circuit outputs the frequency difference between the signal input to VHFIN or UHFIN and the local
oscillation signal.
2. Local oscillation circuit
A VCO is formed by externally connecting an LC resonance circuit composed of a varicap diode and
inductance.
3. IF amplifier circuit
This circuit amplifies the mixer IF output, and consists of an amplifier stage and low impedance output
stage.
4. PLL circuit
This PLL circuit fixes the local oscillation frequency to the desired frequency. It consists of a programmable
divider, reference divider, phase comparator, charge pump and reference oscillator. The control format
supports both the I2C bus and 3-wire bus formats.
During I2C bus control, the frequency steps of 31.25, 50 or 62.5 kHz can be selected by the data-based
reference divider frequency division setting value.
During 3-wire bus control, these frequency steps can be selected by the combination of the communication
word length (18 or 19 bits) and the voltage applied to the BYP/MS pin.
5. Band switch circuit
The CXA3250AN has four sets of built-in PNP transistors for switching between the VL, VH and UHF bands
and for switching the FM trap, etc. These PNP transistors can be controlled by the bus data.
The emitters for these PNP transistors are connected to an independent power supply pin (VCC3) from the
oscillator, mixer and PLL circuits, and support either 5 V or 9 V as the RF amplifier power supply.

CXA3250AN
Description of Analog Block Operation
(See the Electrical Characteristics Measurement Circuit.)
VHF oscillator circuit
• This circuit is a differential amplifier type oscillator circuit. Pin 18 is the output and Pin 16 is the input.
Oscillation is performed by connecting an LC resonance circuit including a varicap to Pin 18 via coupled
capacitance, inputting to Pin 16 with feedback capacitance, and applying positive feedback.
• The amplifier between Pins 16 and 18 has an extremely high gain. Therefore, care should be taken to
avoid creating parasitic capacitance, resistance or other feedback loops as this may produce abnormal
oscillation.
VHF mixer circuit
• The mixer circuit employs a double balanced mixer with little local oscillation signal leakage.
The input format is base input type, with Pin 12 grounded via a capacitor and the RF signal input to Pin
13. (Pin 12 can also be used to switch the PLL mode according to the applied DC voltage value.)
• The RF signal is fed from the oscillator, converted to IF frequency and output from Pins 9 and 10.
UHF oscillator circuit
• This oscillator circuit is designed so that two collector ground type Colpitts oscillators perform differential
oscillation operation via an LC resonance circuit including a varicap.
• Resonance capacitance is connected between Pins 19 and 20, Pins 20 and 21, and Pins 21 and 22, and
an LC resonance circuit including a varicap is connected between Pins 19 and 22.
UHF mixer circuit
• This circuit employs a double balanced mixer like the VHF mixer circuit.
The input format is base input type, with Pins 14 and 15 as the RF input pins. The input method can be
selected from balanced input consisting of differential input to Pins 14 and 15 or unbalanced input
consisting of grounding Pin 14 via a capacitor and input to Pin 15.
• Pins 9 and 10 are the mixer outputs.
IF amplifier circuit
• The signals frequency converted by the mixer are output from Pins 9 and 10, and at the same time are
AC coupled inside the IC and input to the IF amplifier.
• Single-tuned filters are connected to Pins 9 and 10 in order to improve the interference characteristics of
the IF amplifier.
• The signal amplified by the IF amplifier is output from Pin 25.
The output impedance is approximately 75 Ω.

Description of PLL Block
This IC supports both I2C bus and 3-wire bus control.
The I2C bus conforms to the standard I2C bus format, and bidirectional bus control is possible consisting of a
write mode in which various data are received and a read mode in which various data are sent.
The 3-wire bus is equipped with an 18- or 19-bit auto identify function, and the frequency step can be
switched according to the voltage applied to the BYP/MS pin.
The PLL of this IC does not have a fixed frequency division circuit and performs high-speed phase
comparison, providing low reference leak and quick lock-up time characteristics.
During power-on (VCC2), the power-on reset circuit operates to initialize the frequency data to all “0” and the
band data to all “OFF”. Power-on reset is performed when Vcc2=2.5 V at room temperature (Ta=25 °C).

2.) Programming
The VCO lock frequency is obtained according to the following formula.
fosc=fref × (32 M + S)
fosc : local oscillator frequency
fref : phase comparison frequency
M : main divider frequency division ratio
S : swallow counter frequency division ratio
The variable frequency division ranges of M and S are as follows, and are set as binary.
S < M ≤ 1023 (S < M ≤ 511 during 18-bit transfer)
0 ≤ S ≤ 31
3.) I2C Bus Control
This IC conforms to the standard I2C bus format, and bidirectional bus control is possible consisting of a
write mode in which various data are received and a read mode in which various data are sent. Write and
read modes are recognized according to the setting of the final bit (R/W bit) of the address byte. Write
mode is set when the R/W bit is “0” and read mode is set when the R/W bit is “1”.

3-2) Write mode
Write mode is used to receive various data. In this mode, byte 1 contains the address data, bytes 2 and
3 contain the frequency data, byte 4 contains the control data, and byte 5 contains the band switch data.
These data are latch transferred in the manner of byte 1, byte 2 + byte 3, and byte 4 + byte 5.
When the correct address is received and acknowledged, the data is recognized as frequency data if the
first bit of the next byte is “0”, and as control data and band switch data if this bit is “1”.
Also, when data transmission is stopped part-way, the previously programmed data is valid. Therefore,
once the control and band switch data have been programmed, 3-byte commands consisting of the
address and frequency data are possible.
Further, even if the I 2C bus stop conditions are not met, data can be input by sending the start
conditions and the new address.
