Abstract :
A 0.35 μm SiGe BiCMOS single-chip RF tuner for DAB and DMB receives DAB signals in both L-Band and Band 3, and FM broadcast signals on Band 2. The chip contains a VCO, integer-N PLL, multi-band LNA with an AGC, quadrature mixer, IF filter, IF AGC amplifier and supply regulators. The 2.5mm×2.5mm die has a sensitivity of -100dBm in Band 3, is packaged in a 5mm×5mm QFN-32, and consumes 150mW from a 3V supply.
