Therefore pay attention when connecting the standard ceramic filter used between IMOUT and this pin. The reference point of the filter has to be free of any ac signal.

The current of the pin diode is this current multiplied by the current gain of the external PNP transistor. The dc voltage at the pin may vary from 2 V to VS, therefore you can easily use this pin as an indicator of the AGC regulation state. The parallel input resistance is 1.2 k.

In order to set the threshold to smaller levels the resistance value should be up to a few hundred k. 4 (23) Reference voltage: The internal temperature compensated reference voltage is 3.9 V. It is used as bias voltage for most blocks, so the electrical characteristics of the U4065B are widely independent of the supply voltage. The internal output resistance of the reference voltage is less than 10 . To avoid internal coupling across this pin external capacitors are required. The maximum output current is Iref = 5 mA. Rev.

A new design philosophy enables to build up tuners with superior behavior. This philosophy is based on the fact that the sensitivity of state of the art designs is at the physical border and cannot be enhanced any more. On the other hand, the spectral power density in the FM-band increases. An improvement of reception can only be achieved by increasing the dynamic range of the receiver. This description is to give the designer an introduction to get familiar with this new product and its philosophy. 1. The Signal Path The U4065B offers the complete signal path of an FMfrontend including a highly linear mixer and two IF preamplifiers. The mixer is a double balanced high current Gilbert Cell. A high transit frequency of the internal transistors enables the use of the emitter grounded circuit with its favorable noise behavior. The full balanced output offers LO carrier reduction. The following IF preamplifier has a dB-linear gain adjustment by dc means. Thus different ceramic filter losses can be compensated and the overall tuner gain can be adapted to the individual requirements. The low noise design suppresses post stage noise in the signal path. Input- and output resistance is 330 to support standard ceramic filters. This was achieved without feedback, which would cause different input impedances when varying the output impedance. The second IF preamplifier enables the use of three ceramic filters with real 330 input- and output termination. Feedthrough of signals is kept low. The high level of output compression is necessary to keep up a high dynamic range. Beneath the signal path the local oscillator part and the AGC signal generation can be found on chip. The local oscillator uses the collector grounded colpitts type. A low phase noise is achieved with this access. A mutual coupling in the oscillator coil is not necessary. 2. The AGC Concept Special care was taken to design a unique AGC concept. It offers 3 AGC loops for different kinds of reception conditions. The most important loop is the interference sensor part. In today's high end car radios, the FM AGC is state of the art. It is necessary to reduce the influence of 3rd and higher order intermodulation to sustain reception in the presence of strong signals in the band. On one hand, it makes a sense to reduce the desired signal level by AGC as few as possible to keep up stereo reception, on the other 6 (23) hand two or more strong out of channel signals may interfere and generate an intermodulation signal on the desired frequency. By introducing input attenuation, the level of the intermod signal decreases by a higher order, whereas the level of the desired signal shows only a linear dependency on the input attenuation. Therefore input attenuation by pin diodes may keep up reception in the presence of strong signals. The standard solution to generate the pin diode current is to pick up the RF-signal in front of the mixer. Because the bandwidth at that point is about 1.5 MHz, this is called wideband AGC. The threshold of AGC start is a critical parameter. A low threshold does not allow any intermodulation but has the disadvantage of blocking if there is only one strong station on the band or if the intermod signals do not cover the desired channel. A higher AGC threshold may tolerate a certain ground floor of intermodulation. This avoids blocking, but it has the disadvantage, that no reception is possible, if the interfering signals do generate an intermod signal inside the desired channel. This contradiction could not be overcome in the past. With the new U4065B IC, a unique access to this problem appears. This product has an interference sensor on chip. Thus an input signal attenuation is only performed, if the interfering signals do generate an intermod signal inside the desired channel. If they do not, the still existing wideband AGC is yet active but at up to 20 dB higher levels. The optimum AGC state is always generated. The figures 1 to 4 illustrate the situation. In figure 1 the AGC threshold of a standard tuner is high to avoid blocking. But then the intermod signal suppresses the desired signal. The interference sensor of the U4065B takes care that in this case the AGC threshold is kept low as illustrated in figure 2. In figure 3 the situation is vice versa. The AGC threshold of a standard tuner is kept low to avoid intermod problems. But then blocking makes the desired signal level drop below the necessary stereo level. In this case, the higher wideband AGC level of the U4065B enables perfect stereo reception. By principle, this interference sensor is an element with a third order characteristic. For input levels of zero, the output level is zero, too. With increasing input level, the output level is increased with the power of three, thus preferring intermod signals compared to linear signals. At the same time, a down conversion to the IF level of 10.7 MHz is performed. If a corresponding 10.7 MHz IF filter selects the intermod signals, an output is only generated, if an intermod signal inside the 10.7 MHz channel is present. Rev. A4, 06-Mar-01 U4065B The circuit blocks interference sensor and IF & detector build up a second IF chain. In an FM system, the max deviation of a 3rd order intermod signal is the triple max deviation of the desired signal. Therefore the ceramic IF BPF between Pin 11 and Pin 9 may be a large bandwidth type. This external part is the only additional amount for Level 94 8820 this unique feature. A further narrow band AGC avoids overriding the second IF amplifier. The amplitude information of the channel is not compressed in order to maintain multipath detection in the IF part of the receiver.

A4, 06-Mar-01 U4065B Ozone Depleting Substances Policy Statement It is the policy of Atmel Germany 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. Atmel Germany GmbH 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. Atmel Germany GmbH 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 Atmel Wireless & Microcontrollers products for any unintended or unauthorized application, the buyer shall indemnify Atmel Wireless & Microcontrollers 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.
