The U2510B is an integrated bipolar one-chip AM/FM
radio circuit. It contains an FM front end with
preamplifier, FM IF and demodulator, a complete AM
Features
Superior FM strong signal behavior by using RF AGC
receiver, an AF amplifier and a mode switch for AM, FM
and tape. This circuit is designed for clock radios and
portable radio-cassette recorders.
DC mode control: AM, FM and tape
U2510B
Soft mute and HCC for decreasing interstation noise
in FM mode
Excellent AFC performance (level controlled, both
polarities available)
Level indicator (LED drive) for AM and FM
