restricted to the conditions as specified in the operational sections of this data sheet. Exposure beyond recommended
operating conditions for extended periods may affect device reliability.
2. The Si4704/05 devices are high-performance RF integrated circuits with certain pins having an ESD rating of < 2 kV
HBM. Handling and assembly of these devices should be done only at ESD-protected workstations.
3. For input pins SCLK, SEN, SDIO, RST, RCLK, DCLK, DFS, GPO1, GPO2, and GPO3.

Important Notes:
1. When selecting 2-wire mode, the user must ensure that a 2-wire start condition (falling edge of SDIO while SCLK is
high) does not occur within 300 ns before the rising edge of RST.
2. When selecting 2-wire mode, the user must ensure that SCLK is high during the rising edge of RST, and stays high until
after the first start condition.
3. When selecting 3-wire or SPI modes, the user must ensure that a rising edge of SCLK does not occur within 300 ns
before the rising edge of RST.
4. If GPO1 and GPO2 are actively driven by the user, then minimum tSRST is only 30 ns. If GPO1 or GPO2 is high
impedance, then minimum tSRST is 100 µs to provide time for on-chip 1 M devices (active while RST is low) to pull
GPO1 high and GPO2 low.

Notes:
1. When VIO = 0 V, SCLK and SDIO are low impedance.
2. When selecting 2-wire mode, the user must ensure that a 2-wire start condition (falling edge of SDIO while SCLK is
high) does not occur within 300 ns before the rising edge of RST.
3. When selecting 2-wire mode, the user must ensure that SCLK is high during the rising edge of RST, and stays high
until after the first start condition.
4. The Si4704/05 delays SDIO by a minimum of 300 ns from the VIH threshold of SCLK to comply with the minimum
tHD:DAT specification.
5. The maximum tHD:DAT has only to be met when fSCL = 400 kHz. At frequencies below 400 KHz, tHD:DAT may be
violated as long as all other timing parameters are met.

The Si4704/05 device leverages Silicon Laboratories’
highly successful and proven Si4700/01/02/03 FM
receiver, and offers unmatched integration and
performance. The Si4704/05 offers additional features,
such as EN55020 compliance, embedded antenna
support, and a digital audio interface. The Si4704/05 is
layout compatible with Silicon Laboratories’ Si4710/11
FM Transmitter, Si4720/21 FM Transceiver, and
Si4730/31 AM/FM Receiver. The Si4704/05 is the first
FM radio receiver integrated circuit to support a short
PCB trace or wire antenna, which can be integrated into
the enclosure or PCB.
The Si4704/05’s digital integration reduces the required
external components of traditional offerings, resulting in
a solution requiring only an external inductor and
bypass capacitor, and occupying board space of
approximately 15 mm2. Other advantages of the
Si4704/05 include highly reliable device manufacturing,
excellent quality, and ease of use to design-in and
program.
The Si4704/05 includes line outputs from the on-chip
digital-to-analog converters (DAC), digital audio mixers,
a programmable reference clock input, and a
configurable digital audio interface with the Si4705. The
chip supports an I2C-compliant 2-wire interface, an
Si4700/01/02/03 backwards compatible 3-wire control
interface, and an SPI control interface.
18
The Si4704/05 performs much of the FM demodulation
digitally to achieve high fidelity, optimal performance
versus power consumption, and flexibility of design. The
on-board DSP provides unmatched pilot rejection,
selectivity, and optimum sound quality. The Si4704/05
offers both the manufacturer and the end-user
unmatched programmability and flexibility in the
listening experience.
The Si4705 incorporates on-board processing capability
for the European Radio Data System (RDS) and the US
Radio Broadcast Data System (RBDS) including all the
symbol encoding/decoding, block synchronization, error
detection, and error correction functions. RDS allows
digital information sent from the broadcaster to be
displayed, such as station ID, song name, and music
category. In Europe, alternate frequency (AF)
information is also provided to automatically change
stations in areas where broadcasters use multiple
frequencies.
The Si4704/05 has two separate RF inputs. FMI is the
input for use with a traditional FM antenna. The LPI
input is for use with a short PCB trace or wire antenna
that may be integrated into the system enclosure. There
is a clocking mode to choose to clock the Si4704/05
from a reference clock or crystal. On the Si4705, there
is an audio output mode to choose between an analog
and/or digital audio output.
Rev. 1.0
Si4704/05-C40
In the analog audio output mode, pin 13 is ROUT, pin 14
is LOUT, and pin 17 is GPO3. In the digital audio mode,
pin 15 is DOUT, pin 16 is DFS, and pin 17 is DCLK.
Concurrent analog/digital audio output mode requires
pins 13, 14, 15, 16, and 17.
The digital audio interface operates in slave mode and
supports a variety of MSB-first audio data formats
including I2S and left-justified modes. The interface has
three pins: digital data input (DIN), digital frame
synchronization input (DFS), and a digital bit
synchronization input clock (DCLK). The Si4704/05
supports a number of industry-standard sampling rates
including 32, 40, 44.1, and 48 kHz. The digital audio
interface enables low-power operation by eliminating
the need for redundant DACs and ADCs on the audio
baseband processor.
The Si4704/05 is reset by applying a logic low on RST
signal. This causes all register values to be reset to their
default values. The digital output interface supply (VIO)
provides voltage to the RST, SEN, SDIO, RCLK, DOUT,
DFS, and DCLK pins and can be connected to the audio
baseband processor's supply voltage to save power and
remove the need for voltage level translators. RCLK is
not required for register operation.
The Si4704/05 reference clock is programmable,
supporting many RCLK inputs as shown in Table 11.
4.2. Application Schematics and Operating
Modes
The application schematic for the Si4704/05 is shown in
Section "2. Typical Application Schematic" on page 16.
The Si4704/05 supports selectable analog, digital, or
concurrent analog and digital audio output modes. In
the analog output mode, pin 13 is ROUT, pin 14 is
LOUT, and pin 17 is GPO3. In the digital output mode,
pin 15 is DOUT, pin 16 is DFS, and pin 17 is DCLK.
Concurrent analog and digital audio output mode
requires pins 13, 14, 15, 16, and 17. In addition to
output mode, there is a clocking mode to clock the
Si4704/05 from a reference clock or crystal oscillator.
The user sets the operating modes with commands as
described in Section "5. Commands and Properties" on
page 25.
The quadrature mixer output is amplified, filtered, and
digitized with high resolution analog-to-digital
converters (ADCs). This advanced architecture allows
the Si4704/05 to perform channel selection, FM
demodulation, and stereo audio processing to achieve
superior performance compared to traditional analog
architectures.
4.4. Digital Audio Interface (Si4705 Only)
The digital audio interface operates in slave mode and
supports three different audio data formats:
I2S
 Left-Justified
 DSP Mode

4.4.1. Audio Data Formats
In I2S mode, by default the MSB is captured on the
second rising edge of DCLK following each DFS
transition. The remaining bits of the word are sent in
order, down to the LSB. The left channel is transferred
first when the DFS is low, and the right channel is
transferred when the DFS is high.
In Left-Justified mode, by default the MSB is captured
on the first rising edge of DCLK following each DFS
transition. The remaining bits of the word are sent in
order, down to the LSB. The left channel is transferred
first when the DFS is high, and the right channel is
transferred when the DFS is low.
In DSP mode, the DFS becomes a pulse with a width of
1DCLK period. The left channel is transferred first,
followed right away by the right channel. There are two
options in transferring the digital audio data in DSP
mode: the MSB of the left channel can be transferred on
the first rising edge of DCLK following the DFS pulse or
on the second rising edge.
In all audio formats, depending on the word size, DCLK
frequency, and sample rates, there may be unused
DCLK cycles after the LSB of each word before the next
DFS transition and MSB of the next word. In addition, if
preferred, the user can configure the MSB to be
captured on the falling edge of DCLK via properties.
The number of audio bits can be configured for 8, 16,
20, or 24 bits.
4.3. FM Receiver
4.4.2. Audio Sample Rates
The Si4704/05 FM receiver is based on the proven
Si4700/01 FM tuner. The receiver uses a digital low-IF
architecture allowing the elimination of external
components and factory adjustments. The Si4704/05
integrates a low noise amplifier (LNA) supporting the
worldwide FM broadcast band (64 to 108 MHz). An
AGC circuit controls the gain of the LNA to optimize
sensitivity and rejection of strong interferers. An imagereject mixer downconverts the RF signal to low-IF.
The device supports a number of industry-standard
sampling rates including 32, 40, 44.1, and 48 kHz. The
digital audio interface enables low-power operation by
eliminating the need for redundant DACs on the audio
baseband processor.

4.6. De-emphasis
The output of the FM demodulator is a stereo
multiplexed (MPX) signal. The MPX standard was
developed in 1961, and is used worldwide. Today's
MPX signal format consists of left + right (L+R) audio,
left – right (L–R) audio, a 19 kHz pilot tone, and
RDS/RBDS data as shown in Figure 13 below.
Pre-emphasis and de-emphasis is a technique used by
FM broadcasters to improve the signal-to-noise ratio of
FM receivers by reducing the effects of high-frequency
interference and noise. When the FM signal is
transmitted, a pre-emphasis filter is applied to
accentuate the high audio frequencies. The Si4704/05
incorporates a de-emphasis filter which attenuates high
frequencies to restore a flat frequency response. Two
time constants are used in various regions. The deemphasis time constant is programmable to 50 or 75 µs
and is set by the FM_DEEMPHASIS property.

pins. The audio output may be muted. Volume is

4.8. Soft Mute
Figure 13. MPX Signal Spectrum
4.5.1. Stereo Decoder
The
Si4704/05's
integrated
stereo
decoder
automatically decodes the MPX signal using DSP
techniques. The 0 to 15 kHz (L+R) signal is the mono
output of the FM tuner. Stereo is generated from the
(L+R), (L–R), and a 19 kHz pilot tone. The pilot tone is
used as a reference to recover the (L–R) signal. Output
left and right channels are obtained by adding and
subtracting the (L+R) and (L–R) signals respectively.
The Si4705 uses frequency information from the 19 kHz
stereo pilot to recover the 57 kHz RDS/RBDS signal.
4.5.2. Stereo-Mono Blending
Adaptive noise suppression is employed to gradually
combine the stereo left and right audio channels to a
mono (L+R) audio signal as the signal quality degrades
to maintain optimum sound fidelity under varying
reception conditions. Stereo/mono status can be
monitored with the FM_RSQ_STATUS command. Mono
operation
can
be
forced
with
the
FM_BLEND_MONO_THRESHOLD property.
The soft mute feature is available to attenuate the audio
outputs and minimize audible noise in very weak signal
conditions. The softmute attenuation level is adjustable
using the FM_SOFT_MUTE_MAX_ATTENUATION
property.
4.9. RDS/RBDS Processor (Si4705 Only)
The Si4705 implements an RDS/RBDS* processor for
symbol decoding, block synchronization, error
detection, and error correction.
The Si4705 device is user configurable and provides an
optional interrupt when RDS is synchronized, loses
synchronization, and/or the user configurable RDS
FIFO threshold has been met.
The Si4705 reports RDS decoder synchronization
status and detailed bit errors in the information word for
each RDS block with the FM_RDS_STATUS command.
The range of reportable block errors is 0, 1–2, 3–5, or
6+. More than six errors indicates that the
corresponding block information word contains six or
more non-correctable errors or that the block checkword
contains errors.
*Note: RDS/RBDS is referred to only as RDS throughout the
remainder of this document.

4.10. Tuning
4.13. Control Interface
The tuning frequency can be directly programmed using
the FM_TUNE_FREQ command. The Si4704/05
supports channel spacing steps of 10 kHz in FM mode.
A serial port slave interface is provided, which allows an
external controller to send commands to the Si4704/05
and receive responses from the device. The serial port
can operate in three bus modes: 2-wire mode, 3-wire
mode, or SPI mode. The Si4704/05 selects the bus
mode by sampling the state of the GPO1 and GPO2
pins on the rising edge of RST. The GPO1 pin includes
an internal pull-up resistor, which is connected while
RST is low, and the GPO2 pin includes an internal pulldown resistor, which is connected while RST is low.
Therefore, it is only necessary for the user to actively
drive pins which differ from these states. See Table 12.
4.11. Seek
Seek tuning will search up or down for a valid channel.
Valid channels are found when the receive signal
strength indicator (RSSI) and the signal-to-noise ratio
(SNR) values exceed the set threshold. Using the SNR
qualifier rather than solely relying on the more
traditional RSSI qualifier can reduce false stops and
increase the number of valid stations detected. Seek is
initiated using the FM_SEEK_START command. The
RSSI and SNR threshold settings are adjustable using
properties (see Table 14).
Table 12. Bus Mode Select on Rising Edge of
RST
4.12. Reference Clock
The Si4704/05 reference clock is programmable,
supporting RCLK frequencies in Table 11. Refer to
Table 3, “DC Characteristics,” on page 5 for switching
voltage
levels
and
Table 9,
“FM
Receiver
Characteristics,” on page 12 for frequency tolerance
information.
An onboard crystal oscillator is available to generate the
32.768 kHz reference when an external crystal and load
capacitors are provided. Refer to "2. Typical Application
Schematic" on page 16. This mode is enabled using the
POWER_UP command. Refer to Table 13, “Selected
Si4704/05 Commands,” on page 25.
The Si4704/05 performance may be affected by data
activity on the SDIO bus when using the integrated
internal oscillator. SDIO activity results from polling the
tuner for status or communicating with other devices
that share the SDIO bus. If there is SDIO bus activity
while the Si4704/05 is performing the seek/tune
function, the crystal oscillator may experience jitter,
which may result in mistunes, false stops, and/or lower
SNR.
For best seek/tune results, Silicon Laboratories
recommends that all SDIO data traffic be suspended
during Si4704/05 seek and tune operations. This is
achieved by keeping the bus quiet for all other devices
on the bus, and delaying tuner polling until the tune or
seek operation is complete. The seek/tune complete
(STC) interrupt should be used instead of polling to
determine when a seek/tune operation is complete.

After the rising edge of RST, the pins GPO1 and GPO2
are used as general purpose output (O) pins as
described in Section “4.14. GPO Outputs”. In any bus
mode, commands may only be sent after VIO and VDD
supplies are applied.
In any bus mode, before sending a command or reading
a response, the user must first read the status byte to
ensure that the device is ready (CTS bit is high).
4.13.1. 2-Wire Control Interface Mode
When selecting 2-wire mode, the user must ensure that
SCLK is high during the rising edge of RST, and stays
high until after the first start condition. Also, a start
condition must not occur within 300 ns before the rising
edge of RST.
The 2-wire bus mode uses only the SCLK and SDIO
pins for signaling. A transaction begins with the START
condition, which occurs when SDIO falls while SCLK is
high. Next, the user drives an 8-bit control word serially
on SDIO, which is captured by the device on rising
edges of SCLK. The control word consists of a 7-bit
device address, followed by a read/write bit (read = 1,
write = 0). The Si4704/05 acknowledges the control
word by driving SDIO low on the next falling edge of
SCLK.
Rev. 1.0
Si4704/05-C40
Although the Si4704/05 will respond to only a single
device address, this address can be changed with the
SEN pin (note that the SEN pin is not used for signaling
in 2-wire mode). When SEN = 0, the 7-bit device
address is 0010001b. When SEN = 1, the address is
1100011b.
For write operations, the user then sends an 8-bit data
byte on SDIO, which is captured by the device on rising
edges of SCLK. The Si4704/05 acknowledges each
data byte by driving SDIO low for one cycle, on the next
falling edge of SCLK. The user may write up to 8 data
bytes in a single 2-wire transaction. The first byte is a
command, and the next seven bytes are arguments.
For read operations, after the Si4704/05 has
acknowledged the control byte, it will drive an 8-bit data
byte on SDIO, changing the state of SDIO on the falling
edge of SCLK. The user acknowledges each data byte
by driving SDIO low for one cycle, on the next falling
edge of SCLK. If a data byte is not acknowledged, the
transaction will end. The user may read up to 16 data
bytes in a single 2-wire transaction. These bytes contain
the response data from the Si4704/05.
A 2-wire transaction ends with the STOP condition,
which occurs when SDIO rises while SCLK is high. For
details on timing specifications and diagrams, refer to
Table 5, “2-Wire Control Interface Characteristics” on
page 7; Figure 2, “2-Wire Control Interface Read and
Write Timing Parameters,” on page 8, and Figure 3, “2Wire Control Interface Read and Write Timing Diagram,”
on page 8.
4.13.2. 3-Wire Control Interface Mode
When selecting 3-wire mode, the user must ensure that
a rising edge of SCLK does not occur within 300 ns
before the rising edge of RST.
The 3-wire bus mode uses the SCLK, SDIO, and SEN_
pins. A transaction begins when the user drives SEN
low. Next, the user drives a 9-bit control word on SDIO,
which is captured by the device on rising edges of
SCLK. The control word consists of a 3-bit device
address (A7:A5 = 101b), a read/write bit (read = 1, write
= 0), and a 5-bit register address (A4:A0).
For write operations, the control word is followed by a
16-bit data word, which is captured by the device on
rising edges of SCLK.
For read operations, the control word is followed by a
delay of one-half SCLK cycle for bus turn-around. Next,
the Si4704/05 will drive the 16-bit read data word
serially on SDIO, changing the state of SDIO on each
rising edge of SCLK.
A transaction ends when the user sets SEN high, then
pulses SCLK high and low one final time. SCLK may
either stop or continue to toggle while SEN is high.
In 3-wire mode, commands are sent by first writing each
argument to register(s) 0xA1–0xA3, then writing the
command word to register 0xA0. A response is
retrieved by reading registers 0xA8–0xAF.
For details on timing specifications and diagrams, refer
to Table 6, “3-Wire Control Interface Characteristics,” on
page 9; Figure 4, “3-Wire Control Interface Write Timing
Parameters,” on page 9, and Figure 5, “3-Wire Control
Interface Read Timing Parameters,” on page 9.
4.13.3. SPI Control Interface Mode
When selecting SPI mode, the user must ensure that a
rising edge of SCLK does not occur within 300 ns
before the rising edge of RST.
SPI bus mode uses the SCLK, SDIO, and SEN pins for
read/write operations. The system controller can
choose to receive read data from the device on either
SDIO or GPO1. A transaction begins when the system
controller drives SEN = 0. The system controller then
pulses SCLK eight times, while driving an 8-bit control
byte serially on SDIO. The device captures the data on
rising edges of SCLK. The control byte must have one
of five values:

0x48 = write a command (controller drives 8
additional bytes on SDIO).
 0x80 = read a response (device drives one
additional byte on SDIO).
 0xC0 = read a response (device drives 16 additional
bytes on SDIO).
 0xA0 = read a response (device drives one
additional byte on GPO1).
 0xE0 = read a response (device drives 16 additional
bytes on GPO1).
For write operations, the system controller must drive
exactly eight data bytes (a command and seven
arguments) on SDIO after the control byte. The data is
captured by the device on the rising edge of SCLK.
For read operations, the controller must read exactly 1
byte (STATUS) after the control byte or exactly 16 data
bytes (STATUS and RESP1–RESP15) after the control
byte. The device changes the state of SDIO (or GPO1, if
specified) on the falling edge of SCLK. Data must be
captured by the system controller on the rising edge of
SCLK.
Rev. 1.0
23
Si4704/05-C40
Keep SEN low until all bytes have transferred. A
transaction may be aborted at any time by setting SEN
high and toggling SCLK high and then low. Commands
will be ignored by the device if the transaction is
aborted.
For details on timing specifications and diagrams, refer
to Figure 6 and Figure 7 on page 10.
4.14. GPO Outputs
The Si4704/05 provides three general-purpose output
pins. The GPO pins can be configured to output a
constant low, constant high, or high-impedance. The
GPO pins can be reconfigured as specialized functions.
GPO2/INT can be configured to provide interrupts and
GPO3 can be configured to provide external crystal
support or as DCLK in digital audio output mode.
4.15. Reset, Powerup, and Powerdown
Setting the RST pin low will disable analog and digital
circuitry, reset the registers to their default settings, and
disable the bus. Setting the RST pin high will bring the
device out of reset.
A powerdown mode is available to reduce power
consumption when the part is idle. Putting the device in
powerdown mode will disable analog and digital circuitry
while keeping the bus active.
24
4.16. Programming with Commands
To ease development time and offer maximum
customization, the Si4704/05 provides a simple yet
powerful software interface to program the receiver. The
device is programmed using commands, arguments,
properties, and responses.
To perform an action, the user writes a command byte
and associated arguments, causing the chip to execute
the given command. Commands control an action such
as powerup the device, shut down the device, or tune to
a station. Arguments are specific to a given command
and are used to modify the command. A partial list of
commands is available in Table 13, “Selected Si4704/05
Commands,” on page 25.
Properties are a special command argument used to
modify the default chip operation and are generally
configured immediately after powerup. Examples of
properties are de-emphasis level, RSSI seek threshold,
and soft mute attenuation threshold. A partial list of
properties is available in Table 14, “Selected Si4704/05
Properties,” on page 26.
Responses provide the user information and are
echoed after a command and associated arguments are
issued. All commands provide a one-byte status update
indicating interrupt and clear-to-send status information.
For a detailed description of the commands and
properties for the Si4704/05, see “AN332: Universal
Programming Guide.”

Notes: General
1. All dimensions shown are in millimeters (mm) unless otherwise noted.
2. Dimensioning and Tolerancing is per the ANSI Y14.5M-1994 specification.
3. This Land Pattern Design is based on IPC-SM-782 guidelines.
4. All dimensions shown are at Maximum Material Condition (MMC). Least Material
Condition (LMC) is calculated based on a Fabrication Allowance of 0.05 mm.
Notes: Solder Mask Design
1. All metal pads are to be non-solder mask defined (NSMD). Clearance between the
solder mask and the metal pad is to be 60 µm minimum, all the way around the pad.
Notes: Stencil Design
1. A stainless steel, laser-cut, and electro-polished stencil with trapezoidal walls should
be used to assure good solder paste release.
2. The stencil thickness should be 0.125 mm (5 mils).
3. The ratio of stencil aperture to land pad size should be 1:1 for the perimeter pads.
4. A 1.45 x 1.45 mm square aperture should be used for the center pad. This provides
approximately 70% solder paste coverage on the pad, which is optimum to assure
correct component stand-off.
Notes: Card Assembly
1. A No-Clean, Type-3 solder paste is recommended.
2. The recommended card reflow profile is per the JEDEC/IPC J-STD-020 specification
for Small Body Components.
