ICs for FM/AM Tuner
■ Overview
The AN7243S is an FM front-end IC designed for DTS
except RF amp. of car radio. It is built-in local oscillation
frequency buffer output and PIN diode (ADX) driver for
antenna damping.
■ Features
•
High sensitivity · High S/N ratio
•
Good IM characteristics at strong input
•
Timing for AGC input level is variable.
•
Built-in pre-IF-Amp. having negative (positive) temper-
ature characteristics to RF amp.
