The FMMPX input is the input for the MPX signal from the
tuner. The input gain can be selected in three settings to
match the input to the RF front-end circuit. A fourth setting
is used for weather band mode, which may require a gain
of 23.5 dB.
A low-pass filter provides the necessary signal delay for
FM noise blanking and suppression of high frequency
interferences into the stereo decoder input. The output
signalofthisfilterisfedtotheroll-offcorrectioncircuit.This
circuit compensates the frequency response caused by
the low-pass characteristic of the tuner circuit with its
IF filters. The roll-off correction circuit is adjustable in four

settings to compensate different frequency responses of
the tuner part.
The MPX signal is decoded in the stereo decoder part.
A PLL is used for the regeneration of the 38 kHz
subcarrier. The fully integrated oscillator is adjusted by a
digitalauxiliaryPLLintothecapturerangeofthemain PLL.
The auxiliary PLL needs an external reference frequency
(75.4 kHz) which is provided by the tuner ICs of the NICE
family(TEA684x). The required 19 and 38 kHz signals are
generated by division of the oscillator output signal in a
logic circuit. The 19 kHz quadrature phase signal is fed to
the 19 kHz phase detector, where it is compared with the
incoming pilot tone. The DC output signal of the phase
detector controls the oscillator (PLL).

The pilot detector is driven by an internally generated
in-phase 19 kHz signal. Its pilot dependent voltage
activates the stereo indicator bit and sets the stereo
decoder to stereo mode. The same voltage is used to
controlthe amplitude of an anti-phase internally generated
19 kHz signal. In the pilot canceller, the pilot tone is
compensated by this anti-phase 19 kHz signal.
The signal is then decoded in the decoder part. The side
signal is demodulated and combined with the main signal
to the left and right audio channels. A fine adjustment of
the roll-off compensation is done by adjusting the gain of
the L-R signal in 16 steps. A smooth mono to stereo
takeover is achieved by controlling the efficiency of the
matrix by the FMSNC signal from the weak signal
processing block.
7.2FM and AM noise blanker
The FM/AM switch selects the output signal of the stereo
decoder (FM mode) or the signal from the AM input for the
noise blanker block. In FM mode the noise blanker
operates as a sample and hold circuit, while in AM mode it
mutes the audio signal during the interference pulse. The
blanking pulse which triggers the noise blanker is
generated in the noise detector block.
7.3High cut control and de-emphasis
The High Cut Control (HCC) part is a low-pass filter circuit
with eight different static roll-off response curves. The
cut-offfrequenciesofthesefiltercurvescanbeselectedby
I2C-bus to match different application requirements. The
HCC circuit also provides a dynamic control of the filter
response. This function is controlled by the AMFMHCC
signal from the weak signal processing.
The signal passes the de-emphasis block with two
de-emphasisvalues(50and75 µs), which can be selected
via I2C-bus, and is fed to the input selector.
7.4Noise detector
7.4.1FM NOISE DETECTOR
Thetrigger signal for the FMnoise detector is derived from
the MPXRDS input signal and the LEVEL signal. In the
MPXRDS path a four pole high-pass filter (100 kHz)
separates the noise spikes from the wanted MPX signal.
Another detector circuit triggers on noise spikes on the
level voltage. The signals of both detectors are combined
to achieve a reliable trigger signal for the noise blanker.
AGC circuits in the detector part control the gain
depending on the average noise in the signals to prevent
false triggering. The sensitivity of the triggering from the
MPXRDS signal can be adjusted in four steps, the
triggering from the LEVEL signal in three steps.
7.4.2AM NOISE DETECTOR
The trigger pulse for the AM noise blanker is derived from
the AM audio signal. The noise spikes are detected by a
slew rate detector, which detects excessive slew rates
which do not occur in normal audio signals. The sensitivity
of the AM noise blanker can be adjusted in four steps.
7.5Multipath/weak signal processing
The multipath (MPH)/weak signal processing block
detectsqualitydegradationsintheincomingFMsignaland
controls the processing of the audio signal accordingly.
There are three different quality criteria:
• The average value of the level voltage
• The AM components on the level voltage
[Wideband AM (WAM)]
• The high frequency components in the MPX signal
[Ultrasonic Noise (USN)].
The level voltage is converted to a digital value by an 8-bit
analog-to-digital converter. A digital filter circuit (WAM
filter) derives the wideband AM components from the level
signal.ThehighfrequencycomponentsintheMPXsignals
are measured with an analog-to-digital converter (USN
ADC) at the output of the 100 kHz high-pass filter in the
MPXRDS path.
The values of these three signals are externally available
via the I2C-bus.
In the weak signal processing block the three digital
signals are combined in a specific way and used for the
generation of control signals for soft mute, stereo blend
(stereo noise control, FMSNC) and high cut control
(AMFMHCC).
The sensitivities of the detector circuits (WAM and USN)
are adjustable via the I2C-bus.
Alsothestartvaluesandtheslopesofthecontrolfunctions
soft mute, stereo blend and high cut control can be set via
the I2C-bus.
Soft mute, stereo blend and HCC are set on hold during
the AF updating (quality check of alternative frequency) to
avoid an influence of the tuning procedure on the weak
signal processing conditions.
In AM mode the soft mute and high cut control are
available too, the weak signal block is controlled by the
average value of the level voltage.

7.6Tone/volume control
The tone/volume control part consists of the following
stages:
• Input selector
• Loudness control
• Volume/balance control with muting
• Treble control
• Bass control
• Fader and output mute
• Beep generator
• NAV input
• Output mixer.
The settings of all stages are controlled via the I2C-bus.
The stages input selector, loudness, volume/balance,
bass, and fader/output mute include the Audio Step
Interpolation (ASI) function. This minimizes pops by
smoothing the transitions in the audio signal during the
switching of the controls. The transition time of the ASI
function is programmable by I2C-bus in four steps.
7.6.1INPUT SELECTOR
7.6.4TREBLE
The signal is then fed to the treble control stage. The
control range is between +14 and −14 dB in steps of 2 dB.
Figure 20 shows the control characteristic. Four different
filter frequencies can be selected.
7.6.5BASS
The characteristic of the bass attenuation curves can be
set to shelve or band-pass. Four different frequencies can
be selected as centre frequency of the band-pass curve.
Figures 21 and 22show the bass curves with a band-pass
filter frequency of 60 Hz. The control range is between
+14 and −14 dB in steps of 2 dB.
7.6.6FADER/MUTE
The four fader/mute blocks are located at the end of the
tone/volume chain. The control range of these attenuators
is 0 to −59 dB. The step size is:
• 1 dB between 0 and −15 dB
• 2.5 dB between −15 and −45 dB
• 3 dB between −45 and −51 dB
• 4 dB between −51 and −59 dB.
The input selector selects one of four input sources:
• Two external stereo inputs (CD and TAPE)
• One external mono input (PHONE)
• One internal stereo input (AM/FM).
7.6.2LOUDNESS
The output of the input selector is fed into the loudness
circuit. Four different loudness curves can be selected via
the I2C-bus. The control range is between 0 and −20 dB
with a step size of 1 dB; see Figs 16 to 19.
7.6.3VOLUME/BALANCE
Thevolume/balance control is used for volumesetting and
also for balance adjustment. The control range of the
volume/balance control is between +20 and −59 dB in
steps of 1 dB.
Thecombination of loudness and volume/balance realizes
an overall control range of +20 to −79 dB.
7.6.7BEEP GENERATOR AND NAVINPUT WITH OUTPUT
MIXER
The output mixer circuit can add anadditional audio signal
to any of the four outputs together with the main signal or
instead of the main signal.
The additional signal can be generated internally by the
beep generator with four different audio frequencies or
applied to the NAV input, for instance a navigation voice
signal.
