Silicon Laboratories, Inc. introduces the Si474x automotive AM/FM radio receiver IC. Reported to be the smallest and most fully integrated, the receiver supports worldwide radio band requirements, including weather bands, short wave and long wave. External component count and the associated costs have been reduced 40%, according to reports.
 
With a printed circuit board (PCB) footprint less than 4 cm, the single-chip solution is packaged in a 4 mm by 4 mm package. It consumes less than 1/10th the power of standard tuner ICs, and automotive-grade quality is provided.
 
The product can support integrated algorithms, impulse noise event detection and blanking and advanced audio behavior in adverse radio environments. The features are programmable and can be customized for manufacturer and model specifications.
