LA1837 Overview
EN5688C LA1837 Monolithic Linear IC For Home Stereo IC with Electronic Tuning Support Single-Chip IC Overview The LA1837 is a single-chip AM/FM IF and MPX IC that supports electronic tuning and was developed for use in home stereo systems. It is optimal for use in automatic station selection systems that use the SD and IF counting techniques.
LA1837 Key Features
- On-chip MPX VCO (no external ponents required)
- Adjacent channel interference rejection function (third and fifth order)
- Supports both the SD and the IF counting techniques
- The AM and FM SD sensitivities can be set independently
- The AM and FM output levels can be set independently
- Improved AM practical sensitivity and high-input distortion characteristics
- AM : RF amplifier, mixer, oscillator, IF amplifier, detector AGC, oscillator buffer, S-meter, narrowband SD, IF buffer
- FM-IF : IF amplifier, quadrature detector, S-meter, Scurve detector, IF buffer output
