High performance low power mixer FM IF system
with high-speed RSSI
SA627
DESCRIPTION
PIN CONFIGURATION
The SA627 has faster RSSI rise and fall times. The SA627 is a high
performance monolithic low-power FM IF system incorporating a
mixer/oscillator, two limiting intermediate frequency amplifiers,
quadrature detector, muting, logarithmic received signal strength
indicator (RSSI) with fast rise and fall time, voltage regulator and
frequency check/limiter out (–). The SA627 also has an extra limiter
output. This signal is buffered from the output of the limiter and
provides a negative (–) limiter output. This can be used to provide a
frequency check function. The SA627 is available in 20-lead SOL
(surface-mounted miniature package) and 20-lead SSOP (shrink
small outline package).
