The TDA7479 recovers the additional inaudible
RDS information which is transmitted by FM radio
broadcasting stations and operates in accordance
with the EBU (European Broadcasting Union)
specifications.
Table 1.Device summary
TDA7479
SO16
TSSOP16
The device is made up of two sections: a
cascaded antialiasing + switched capacitors 8
bandpass filter for precise RDS band selection
and a demodulating section that performs the
extraction od RDS data stream (RDDA) and clock
(RDCL), to be further processed by a suitable
RDS decoder.
Outputs for RDS signal quality and ARI indication
are also present.

TDA7479Output timing
3 Output timing
The RDS (1187.5Hz) output clock on RDCL line is synchronized to the incoming data. According
to the internal PLL lock condition data change can result on the falling or on the rising clock edge
(see Figure 3). Whichever clock edge is used by the decoder (rising or falling edge) the data will
remain valid for 416.7

Oscillator controls (FSEL, OSEL)TDA7479
4 Oscillator controls (FSEL, OSEL)
Three different crystal frequencies can be used. The adoption of the internal clock divider to
the external crystal is achieved via the input pin FSEL. See the following table for reference:
Table 6.Crystal frequencies
CrystalFSEL (pin configuration)
4.332MHz
8.664MHz
17.328MHz
A special mode is introduced to reduce EMI. With pin OSEL connected to GND the internal
oscillator is switched off and an external sinusoidal frequency could be applied on OSCIN.
The peak to peak voltage of this signal can be reduced down to 60mV.
In this mode the frequency selection via FSEL is still active.
Suggested values of C1 and C2 are shown in the following table:
