4 Functional description
4.1 Mixer 1, AGC and 1.IF
FM quadrature I/Q-mixer converts RF to IF1 of 10.7MHz. The mixer provides inherent image
rejection and wide dynamic range with low noise and large input signal performance. The
mixer1 tank can be adjusted by software (IF1T). For accurate image rejection the gain- and
phase-error generated as well in mixer as VCO stage can be compensated by software
(G,PH)
It is capable of tuning the US FM, US weather, Europe FM, Japan FM and East Europe FM
bands
●US FM = 87.9 to 107.9 MHz
●US weather = 162.4 to 162.55 MHz
●Europe FM = 87.5 to 108 MHz
●Japan FM = 76 to 91 MHz
●East Europe FM = 65.8 to 74 MHz
The AGC operates on different sensitivities and bandwidths in order to improve the input
sensitivity and dynamic range. AGC thresholds are programmable by software
(RFAGC,IFAGC,KAGC). The output signal is a controlled current for double pin diode
attenuator. Two 10.7 MHz programmable amplifiers (IFG1, IFG2) correct the IF ceramic
insertion loss and the costumer level plan application.
4.2 Mixer 2, limiter and demodulator
In this 2. mixer stage the first 10.7 MHz IF is converted into the second 450 kHz IF. A multistage limiter generates signals for the complete integrated demodulator without external
tank. MPX output DC offset versus noise DC level is correctable by software (DEM).
4.3 Quality detection and ISS
4.3.1 Fieldstrength
Parallel to mixer 2 input a 10.7 MHz limiter generates a signal for digital IF counter and a
fieldstrength output signal. This internal unweighted fieldstrength is used for keying AGC,
adjacent channel and multipath detection and is available at PIN14 (FSU) after +6dB buffer
stage. The behaviour of this output signal can be corrected for DC offset (SL) and slope
(SMSL). The internal generated unweighted fieldstrength is filtered at PIN35 and used for
softmute function and generation of ISS filter switching signal for weak input level (sm).
4.3.2 Adjacent channel detector
The input of the adjacent channel detector is AC coupled from internal unweighted
fieldstrength. A programmable highpass or bandpass (ACF) and amplifier (ACG) as well as
rectifier determines the influences. This voltage is compared with adjustable comparator1
thresholds (ACWTH, ACNTH). The output signal of this comparator generates a DC level at
PIN15 by programmable time constant. Time control (TISS) for a present adjacent channel
is made by charge and discharge current after comparator1 in an external capacitance. The
Doc ID 12668 Rev 217/45
Functional descriptionTDA7512F
charge current is fixed and the discharge current is controlled by I2C Bus. This level
produces digital signals (ac, ac+) in an additional comparator4. The adjacent channel
information is available as analog output signal after rectifier and +8 dB output buffer.
4.3.3 Multipath detector
The input of the multipath detector is AC coupled from internal unweighted fieldstrength. A
programmable bandpass (MPF) and amplifier (MPG) as well as rectifier determines the
influences. This voltage is compared with an adjustable comparator2 thresholds (MPTH).
The output signal of this comparator 2 is used for the "Milano" effect. In this case the
adjacent channel detection is switched off. The "Milano" effect is selectable by I
(MPOFF). The multipath information is available as analog output signal after rectifier and
+8 dB output buffer.
2
C bus
4.3.4 450 kHz IF narrow bandpass filter (ISS filter)
The device gets an additional second IF narrow bandpass filter for suppression of noise and
adjacent channel signal influences. This narrow filter has three switchable bandwidthes,
narrow range of 80 kHz, mid range of 120 kHz and 30 kHz for weather band information.
Without ISS filter the IF bandwidth (wide range) is defined only by ceramic filter chain. The
filter is switched in after mixer 2 before 450 kHz limiter stage. The centre frequency is
matching to the demodulator center frequency.
4.3.5 Deviation detector
In order to avoid distortion in audio output signal the narrow ISS filter is switched OFF for
present overdeviation. Hence the demodulator output signal is detected.
A lowpass filtering and peak rectifier generates a signal that is defined by software
controlled current (TDEV) in an external capacitance. This value is compared with a
programmable comparator3 thresholds (DWTH, DTH) and generates two digital signals
(dev, dev+). For weak signal condition deviation threshold is proportinal to FSU.
4.3.6 ISS switch logic
All digital signals coming from adjacent channel detector, deviation detector and softmute
are acting via switching matrix on ISS filter switch. The IF bandpass switch mode is
controlled by software (ISSON, ISS30, ISS80, CTLOFF).
The switch ON of the IF bandpass is also available by external manipulation of the voltage at
PIN15.
Two application modes are available (APPM). The conditions are described in table 34.
4.4 Soft Mute control
The external fieldstrength signal at PIN 35 is the reference for mute control. The startpoint
and mute depth are programmable (SMTH, SMD) in a wide range. The time constant is
defined by external capacitance. Additional adjacent channel mute function is supported.
A highpass filter with -3 dB threshold frequency of 100 kHz, amplifier and peak rectifier
generates an adjacent noise signal from MPX output with the same time constant for
18/45Doc ID 12668 Rev 2
TDA7512FFunctional description
softmute. This value is compared with comparator5 thresholds (ACM). For present strong
adjacent channel the MPX signal is additional attenuated (ACMD).
4.5 PLL and IF counter section
4.5.1 PLL frequency synthesizer block
This part contains a frequency synthesizer and a loop filter for the radio tuning system. Only
one VCO is required to build a complete PLL system for FM world tuning . For auto search
stop operation an IF counter system is available.
The counter works in a two stages configuration. The first stage is a swallow counter with a
two modulus (32/33) precounter. The second stage is an 11-bit programmable counter.
The circuit receives the scaling factors for the programmable counters and the values of the
reference frequencies via an I
2
C bus interface.The reference frequency is generated by an
adjustable internal (XTAL) oscillator followed by the reference divider. The main reference
and step-frequencies are free selectable (RC, PC).
Output signals of the phase detector are switching the programmable current sources. The
loop filter integrates their currents to a DC voltage.
The values of the current sources are programmable by 6 bits also received via the I
(A, B, CURRH).
To minimize the noise induced by the digital part of the system, a special guard
configuration is implemented. The loop gain can be set for different conditions by setting the
current values of the chargepump generator.
4.5.2 Frequency generation for phase comparison
The RF signals applies a two modulus counter (32/33) pre-scaler, which is controlled by a 5bit A-divider. The 5-bit register (PC0 to PC4) controls this divider. In parallel the output of the
prescaler connects to an 11-bit B-divider. The 11-bit PC register (PC5 to PC15) controls this
divider

4.5.3 Three state phase comparator

between f

and f
. This phase error signal drives the charge pump current generator.

4.5.4 Charge pump current generator
This system generators signed pulses of current. The phase error signal decides the
duration and polarity of those pulses. The current absolute values are programmable by A
register for high current and B register for low current.
Doc ID 12668 Rev 219/45
Functional descriptionTDA7512F
4.5.5 Inlock detector
Switching the chargepump in low current mode can be done either via software or
automatically by the inlock detector, by setting bit LDENA to "1".
After reaching a phase difference about lower than 40nsec the chargepump is forced in low
current mode. A new PLL divider alternation by I
high current mode.
4.5.6 Low noise CMOS op-amp
An internal voltage divider at pin VREF2 connects the positive input of the low noise opamp. The charge pump output connects the negative input. This internal amplifier in
cooperation with external components can provide an active filter.
While the high current mode is activated LPHC output is switched on.
4.5.7 IF counter block
The aim of IF counter is to measure the intermediate frequency of the tuner. The input signal
is the 10.7MHz IF level after limiter.
The grade of integration is adjustable by eight different measuring cycle times. The
tolerance of the accepted count value is adjustable, to reach an optimum compromise for
search speed and precision of the evaluation.
4.5.8 Sampling timer
A sampling timer generates the gate signal for the main counter. The basically sampling
time are in FM mode 6.25kHz (t

4.5.9 Intermediate frequency main counter
This counter is a 11 - 21-bit synchronous autoreload down counter. Five bits (CF) are
programmable to have the possibility for an adjust to the centre frequency of the IF-filter.
The counter length is automatic adjusted to the chosen sampling time.
At the start the counter will be loaded with a defined value which is an equivalent to the
divider value (t

If a correct frequency is applied to the IF counter frequency input at the end of the sampling
time the main counter is changing its state from 0h to 1FFFFFh.
This is detected by a control logic and an external search stop output is changing from LOW
to HIGH. The frequency range inside which a successful count result is adjustable by the
EW bits.

4.6 I2C bus interface
The TDA7512F supports the I2C bus protocol. This protocol defines any device that sends
data onto the bus as a transmitter, and the receiving device as the receiver. The device that
controls the transfer is a master and device being controlled is the slave. The master will
always initiate data transfer and provide the clock to transmit or receive operations.
4.6.1 Data transition
Data transition on the SDA line must only occur when the clock SCL is LOW. SDA transitions
while SCL is HIGH will be interpreted as START or STOP condition.
4.6.2 Start condition
A start condition is defined by a HIGH to LOW transition of the SDA line while SCL is at a
stable HIGH level. This "START" condition must precede any command and initiate a data
transfer onto the bus.
The device continuously monitors the SDA and SCL lines for a valid START and will not
response to any command if this condition has not been met.
4.6.3 Stop condition
A STOP condition is defined by a LOW to HIGH transition of the SDA while the SCL line is at
a stable HIGH level. This condition terminates the communication between the devices and
forces the bus-interface of the device into the initial condition.
4.6.4 Acknowledge
Indicates a successful data transfer. The transmitter will release the bus after sending 8 bits
of data. During the 9

4.6.5 Data transfer
During data transfer the device samples the SDA line on the leading edge of the SCL clock.
Therefore, for proper device operation the SDA line must be stable during the SCL LOW to
HIGH transition.
4.6.6 Device addressing
To start the communication between two devices, the bus master must initiate a start
instruction sequence, followed by an eight bit word corresponding to the address of the
device it is addressing.
The most significant 6 bits of the slave address are the device type identifier.
The TDA7512F device type is fixed as "110001".
The next significant bit is used to address a particular device of the previous defined type
connected to the bus.
The state of the hardwired PIN 41 defines the state of this address bit. So up to two devices
could be connected on the same bus. When PIN 41 is connected to VCC2 the address bit
“1” is selected. When PIN 41 is left open the address bit “0” is selected. Therefor a double
FM tuner concept is possible.
The last bit of the start instruction defines the type of operation to be performed:
–When set to "1", a read operation is selected
–When set to "0", a write operation is selected
The TDA7512F connected to the bus will compare their own hardwired address with the
slave address being transmitted, after detecting a START condition. After this comparison,
the TDA7512F will generate an "acknowledge" on the SDA line and will do either a read or a
write operation according to the state of R/W bit.
4.6.7 Write operation
Following a START condition the master sends a slave address word with the R/W bit set to
"0". The device will generate an "acknowledge" after this first transmission and will wait for a
second word (the word address field). This 8-bit address field provides an access to any of
the 32 internal addresses.
Upon receipt of the word address the TDA7512F slave device will respond with an
"acknowledge". At this time, all the following words transmitted to the TDA7512F will be
considered as Data.
The internal address will be automatically incremented. After each word receipt the
TDA7512F will answer with an "acknowledge".
4.6.8 Read operation
If the master sends a slave address word with the R/W bit set to "1", the TDA7512F will
transit one 8-bit data word. This data word includes the following informations:

TDA7512FApplication notes
Appendix B Application notes
Following items are important to get highest performance of TDA7512F in application:
1.In order to avoid leakage current from PLL loop filter input to ground a guardring is
recommended around loop filter PIN’s with PLL reference voltage potential.
2. Distance between Xtal and VCO input PIN 18 should be far as possible and Xtal
package should get a shield versus ground.
3. Blocking of VCO supply should be near at PIN 16 and PIN 17.
4. Wire lenght to FM mixer1 input and output should be symetrically and short.
5. FM demodulator capacitance at PIN 44 should be sense connected as short as
possible versus demodulator ground at PIN 47.
6. With respect to THD capacitive coupling from PIN 20 to VCO should be avoided.
Capacitance at PIN 20 has be connected versus VCC2 ground.
