PRODUCT PREVIEW
TQFP44
ORDERING NUMBER: TDA7515
AM/FM - DSP carradios with 10.7MHz - IF sampling.
It contains mixer and IF amplifiers for AM and FM,
VCO and PLL synthesizer on a single chip.
Use of BICMOS technology allows the implementa-
tion of several tuning function s and a minimum of external components.
