Si4740/41/42/43/44/45
Automotive AM/FM Radio Receiver
Description
The Si474x receiver family applies 100% RF CMOS
technology to bring digital low-IF radio technology to the
automotive receiver market. The Si474x receiver family
builds on Silicon Laboratories’ hi ghly successful broadcast
audio radio products, offering design simplicity, unmatched
integration, programmability, and automotive quality and
reliability.
The Si474x receiver family supports world-wide FM bands
from 64–108 MHz and AM band s from 520–17 10 kHz. The
Si474x supports AM/FM, weather band, shortwave, and
longwave radio bands. All odd-numbered part numbers in
the family support international RDS/RBDS protocols.
The Si474x family levera ges Silico n Laboratories’ patente d
digital architecture, delivering superior RF performance
and interference rejection. The proven digital radio
technology provides excellent sensitivity in weak signal
environments, and superb selectivity and inter-modulation
immunity in strong signal environments.
The solution offers programmable AM/FM channel spacing
and filters, auto-calibrated digital tuning, and proven
AM/FM seek functionality based on multiple signal quality
and band parameters. The family offers highly flexible and
advanced audio features such as noise blanking,
programmable soft mute, and multi-path detection and
mitigation.
The Si474x receiver system has a minimal bil l of materials
requiring a small a mount of board space. The high level of
integration provides a complete, tested broadcast audio
receiver that is ideal for primary automotive radio receivers.
