AM receiver circuit TDA1072A
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The TDA1072A integrated AM receiver circuit performs the active and part of the filtering functions of an AM radio
receiver. It is intended for use in mains-fed home receivers and car radios. The circuit can be used for oscillator
frequencies up to 50 MHz and can handle r.f. signals up to 500 mV. R.F. radiation and sensitivity to interference are
minimized by an almost symmetrical design. The voltage-controlled oscillator provides signals with extremely low
distortion and high spectral purity over the whole frequency range even when tuning with variable capacitance diodes.
If required, band switching diodes can easily be applied. Selectivity is obtained using a block filter before the i.f. amplifier.

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
Gain-controlled r.f. stage and mixer
The differential amplifier in the r.f. stage employs an a.g.c. negative feedback network to provide a wide dynamic range.
Very good cross-modulation behaviour is achieved by a.g.c. delays at the various signal stages. Large signals are
handled with low distortion and the S/N ratio of small signals is improved. Low noise working is achieved in the differential
amplifier by using transistors with low base resistance.
A double balanced mixer provides the i.f. output signal to pin 1.
Oscillator
The differential amplifier oscillator is temperature compensated and is suitable for simple coil connection. The oscillator
is voltage-controlled and has little distortion or spurious radiation. It is specially suitable for electronic tuning using
variable capacitance diodes. Band switching diodes can easily be applied using the stabilized voltage V11-16. An extra
buffered oscillator output (pin 10) is available for driving a synthesizer. If this is not needed, resistor RL(10) can be omitted.
Gain-controlled i.f. amplifier
This amplifier comprises two cascaded, variable-gain differential amplifier stages coupled by a band-pass filter. Both
stages are gain-controlled by the a.g.c. negative feedback network.
Detector
The full-wave, balanced envelope detector has very low distortion over a wide dynamic range. Residual i.f. carrier is
blocked from the signal path by an internal low-pass filter.
A.F. preamplifier
This stage preamplifies the audio frequency output signal. The amplifier output has an emitter follower with a series
resistor which, together with an external capacitor, yields the required low-pass for a.f. filtering.
A.G.C. amplifier
The a.g.c. amplifier provides a control voltage which is proportional to the carrier amplitude. Second-order filtering of the
a.g.c. voltage achieves signals with very little distortion, even at low audio frequencies. This method of filtering also gives
fast a.g.c. settling time which is advantageous for electronic search tuning. The a.g.c. settling time can be further reduced
by using capacitors of smaller value in the external filter (C16 and C17). The a.g.c. voltage is fed to the r.f. and i.f. stages
via suitable a.g.c. delays. The capacitor at pin 7 can be omitted for low-cost applications.
Field strength indicator output
A buffered voltage source provides a high-level field strength output signal which has good linearity for logarithmic input
signals over the whole dynamic range. If the field strength information is not needed, RL(9) can be omitted.
Standby switch
This switch is primarily intended for AM/FM band switching. During standby mode the oscillator, mixer and a.f.
preamplifier are switched off.
Short-circuit protection
All pins have short-circuit protection to ground.

SOLDERING
Introduction
There is no soldering method that is ideal for all IC packages. Wave soldering is often preferred when through-hole and
surface mounted components are mixed on one printed-circuit board. However, wave soldering is not always suitable for
surface mounted ICs, or for printed-circuits with high population densities. In these situations reflow soldering is often
used.
This text gives a very brief insight to a complex technology. A more in-depth account of soldering ICs can be found in our
“IC Package Databook”
(order code 9398 652 90011).
Soldering by dipping or by wave
The maximum permissible temperature of the solder is 260 °C; solder at this temperature must not be in contact with the
joint for more than 5 seconds. The total contact time of successive solder waves must not exceed 5 seconds.
The device may be mounted up to the seating plane, but the temperature of the plastic body must not exceed the
specified maximum storage temperature (Tstg max). If the printed-circuit board has been pre-heated, forced cooling may
be necessary immediately after soldering to keep the temperature within the permissible limit.
Repairing soldered joints
Apply a low voltage soldering iron (less than 24 V) to the lead(s) of the package, below the seating plane or not more
than 2 mm above it. If the temperature of the soldering iron bit is less than 300 °C it may remain in contact for up to
10 seconds. If the bit temperature is between 300 and 400 °C, contact may be up to 5 seconds.
