Description
The CXA3125N is a TV tuner IC which integrates
local oscillator and mixer circuits for VHF band, local
oscillator and mixer circuits for UHF band, and an IF
amplifier onto a single chip. This IC adopts a 16-pin
SSOP package and is suitable for miniaturizing
voltage synthesizer tuner.
Features
• Low noise figure
• Superior cross modulation
• Low power consumption (5 V, 43 mA typ.)
• IF output can be selected from symmetrical or
asymmetrical
• SSOP 16-pin package
Applications
• TV tuners
• VCR tuners
• CATV tuners
Structure
Bipolar silicon monolithic IC
All Band TV Tuner IC (VHF-CATV-UHF)

Power supply.
Mixer outputs and IF amplifier
inputs. These pins are output
with open collector, and they
must be connected to power
supply via load.
GND.
VHF inputs.
Normally a capacitor is
connected at Pin 5 to GND and
Pin 6 is used for input.
UHF inputs. Symmetrical input
to Pins 7 and 8 or a capacitor
is connected at Pin 8 to GND
and Pin 7 is used for input.
External resonance circuit
connection for VHF oscillators.

Symmetrical/asymmetrical
selection of IF output.
Asymmetrical output is selected

When used as an asymmetrical
output, connect to GND with a
capacitor.
External resonance circuit

Band switching.
UHF operation when 3 V or
more voltage is applied
externally, and VHF operation
when 0.5 V or less voltage is
applied.
IF outputs during symmetrical
output. The reverse phase
signal to Pin 16 is output
during symmetrical output.
When asymmetrical output is
selected, the signal is not
output.
