1. Description
The ATR2732N1 is a front-end monolithic integrated circuit, manufactured using
Atmel®’s silicon-germanium BiCMOS process (SiGMOS).
The ATR2732N1 carries out all functions of RF and IF processing, as well as the
clock-signal generation for these functions. Therefore, there is an integrated fractional
PLL, which, equivalent to most of the other functions, can be controlled via an external
digital bus. The RF functions include LNA, down-conversion mixing, amplifying, detec-
tion, and gain control. An external SAW filter is required in the signal path after the RF
functions. Additional amplifiers with detection and control functions are integrated IF
functions.
The device offers several tuning support functions, and was created to simplify the
design and manufacturing process. To this end, the number of external components
are minimal.
The part fits perfectly to Atmel’s DAB baseband processor ATR2740.
