CXA3555N
Description of Functions
The CXA3555N is an analog terrestrial TV broadcasting tuner IC which converts frequencies to IF in order to
tune and detect only the desired reception frequency of VHF and UHF band signals.
In addition to the mixer, local oscillation and IF amplifier circuits required for frequency conversion to IF, this IC
also integrates a PLL circuit for local oscillation frequency control onto a single chip.
The functions of the various circuits are described below.
1. Mixer circuit
This circuit outputs the frequency difference between the signal input to VHFIN or UHFIN and the local
oscillation signal.
2. Local oscillation circuit
A VCO is f ormed by externally connecting an LC resonance circuit composed of a varicap diode and inductance.
3. IF amplifier circuit
This circuit amplifies the mixer IF output, and consists of an amplifier stage and low impedance output stage.
4. PLL circuit
This PLL circuit fixes the local oscillation frequency to the desired frequency. It consists of a programmable
divider, reference divider, phase comparator, charge pump and reference oscillator. The control format
supports the I2C bus format.
The frequency steps of 31.25, 50 or 62.5kHz can be selected by the I2C bus data-based reference divider
frequency division setting value.
5. Band switch circuit
The CXA3555N has four sets of built-in PNP transistors for switching between the VL, VH and UHF bands
and for switching the FM trap, etc. These PNP transistors can be controlled by the bus data.
The emitters for these PNP transistors are connected to the power supply pin (VCC), and are ON and output
5V when the bus data is "1 (H)".

Description of Analog Block Operation (See the Electrical Characteristics Measurement Circuit.)
VHF-Low oscillator circuit
• This is a completely balanced oscillator circuit. The oscillation frequency is varied by connecting an LC parallel
resonance circuit including a varicap between Pins 16 and 18 via coupled capacitance and controlling the
voltage applied to the varicap.
VHF-High oscillator circuit
• This is a completely balanced oscillator circuit. The oscillation frequency is varied by connecting an LC parallel
resonance circuit including a varicap between Pins 17 and 19 via coupled capacitance and controlling the voltage
applied to the varicap.
VHF mixer circuit
• The mixer circuit employs a double balanced mixer with little local oscillation signal leakage.
The input format is base input type, with Pin 12 grounded either directly or via a capacitor and the RF signal
input to Pin 11.
(Pin 12 can also be used to switch the IC gain according to the applied DC voltage value. When switching the
gain with Pin 12, the GC bit of the PLL data must be set to "0".)
• The RF signal is fed from the oscillator, converted to IF frequency and output from Pins 8 and 9. Pins 8 and
9 are open collectors, so external power feed is necessary. Also, connect single-tuned filters to Pins 8 and 9.
UHF oscillator circuit
• The oscillator circuit is designed so that two collector ground type Colpitts oscillators perform differential
oscillation operation via an LC resonance circuit including a varicap.
• Resonance capacitance is connected between Pins 20 and 21, Pins 21 and 22, and Pins 22 and 23, and an
LC resonance circuit including a varicap is connected between Pins 20 and 23.
UHF mixer circuit
• This circuit employs a double balanced mixer like the VHF mixer circuit.
The input format is base input type, with Pins 14 and 15 as the RF input pins. The input method can be
selected from balanced input consisting of differential input to Pins 14 and 15 or unbalanced input consisting
of grounding Pin 14 via a capacitor and input to Pin 15.
• Pins 8 and 9 are the mixer outputs. Pins 8 and 9 are open collectors, so external power feed is necessary.
Also, connect single-tuned filters to Pins 8 and 9.
IF amplifier circuit
• Pins 5 and 6 are the IF amplifier inputs, and the input impedance is approximately 1.6kΩ.
• The signals frequency converted by the mixer are output from Pins 8 and 9, and Pins 8 and 9 are connected
to Pins 5 and 6 via capacitors. (An adjacent channel trap circuit can be formed by connecting LC parallel
circuits in place of capacitors.)
• The signal amplified by the IF amplifier is output from Pin 30. The output impedance is approximately 10Ω.

Description of PLL Block
This IC is controlled by the I2C bus.
The PLL of this IC performs high-speed phase comparison, providing low reference leak and quick lock-up
time characteristics.
During power on, the power-on reset circuit operates to initialize the frequency data to all "0" and the band
data to all "OFF". Power-on reset is performed when VCC≥ 3.2V at room temperature (Ta = 25°C).
1) Address setting
Up to four addresses can be selected by the hardware bit settings, so that multiple PLL can exist within one
system.
The responding address can be set according to the ADSW pin voltage.

2) Frequency data setting
The VCO lock frequency is obtained according to the following formula.
fosc = 2 × fref × (32M + S)
fosc: local oscillator frequency
fref: phase comparison frequency
M:main divider frequency division ratio
S:swallow counter frequency division ratio
The variable frequency division ranges of M and S are as follows, and are set as binary.
S < M ≤ 1023
0 ≤ S ≤ 31
– 16 –
Page 17
CXA3555N
3) Control format
When performing control for this IC, byte 1 contains the address data, bytes 2 and 3 contain the frequency
data, byte 4 contains the control data, and byte 5 contains the band switch data.
These data are latch transferred in the manner of byte 1, byte 2 + byte 3, and byte 4 + byte 5.
When the correct address is received and acknowledged, the data is recognized as frequency data if the
first bit of the next byte is "0", and as control data and band switch data if this bit is "1".
Also, when data transmission is stopped part-way, the previously programmed data is valid. Therefore, once
the control and band switch data have been programmed, 3-byte commands consisting of the address and
frequency data are possible.
Further, even if the I2C bus stop conditions are not met, data can be input by sending the start conditions
and the new address.
The control format is as shown in the table below.
