GENERAL DESCRIPTION
This device is a programmable 3-band mixer oscillator and
synthesizer intended for LOW, MID and HIGH band TV
and VCR tuners. It has three double balanced mixers and
three oscillators for the LOW, MID and HIGH band
respectively, a PLL synthesizer, and an IF amplifier. There
are four package variants: TDA6508, TDA6509,
TDA6508A and TDA6509A. Versions TDA6508; TDA6509
have a symmetrical IF amplifier; versions TDA6508A;
TDA6509A have an asymmetrical IF amplifier, (see Fig.1).
The common output of all three mixers can be connected,
via two output pins, to an external IF filter to enable
shunted IF bandpass and/or serial filtering for improved
signal handling. Two input pins are available for
connecting the output of the external filter to the input of
the IF amplifier. The mixer output has an impedance
of 300
Ω.
The IF amplifier input has an impedance
of 2.5 kΩ (5 pF).
The overall gain of the tuner can be increased at low signal
amplitude conditions to improve TV reception by activating
a weak signal booster via the I
2
C-bus.
There are five open-drain PMOS output ports; each port
has a different drive capability. I
2
C-bus bit P0 enables
port P0 (20 mA drain current) and the LOW band mixer
oscillator. Bit P1 enables port P1 (20 mA drain current)
and the MID band mixer oscillator. When ports P0 and P1
are both disabled, the HIGH band mixer oscillator is
enabled. Bit P2 enables port P2 (20 mA drain current).
Bit P3 enables port P3 (5 mA drain current) for general
use, and bit P4 enables port P4 (5 mA drain current) for
general use, and is also combined with the ADC input.
When the ports are used, the sum of the drain currents
must be limited to 30 mA.
The PLL synthesizer comprises a 15-bit programmable
divider, a crystal oscillator, programmable reference
divider, phase comparator (phase/frequency detector)
combined with a charge-pump which drives an internal
tuning amplifier and an output at pin CP. The CP signal
current can be integrated by connecting an external RC

loop filter between pin CP and pin VTUNE as shown in
Fig.27. The tuning amplifier can supply up to 33 V (max.)
at pin VT for controlling any of the internal oscillators via
external tank circuits. The phase comparator can operate
at 62.5, 50 or 31.25 kHz with a 4 MHz crystal, depending
on the reference divider ratio of either 64, 80 or 128; see
Table 4. An externally sourced signal having a frequency
between 3.58 MHz and 4.43 MHz can be used as a
reference frequency for the internal crystal oscillator at any
of the reference divider ratios.
In test mode, port P3 will output either half the crystal
reference frequency (

) or half the reference divider
frequency (

); see Table 5.
The device can be controlled according to the I

format; see Table 1. The in-lock flag bit FL is set to logic 1
when the PLL is locked. This flag is read from the status
byte on pin SDA during a READ operation; see Table 6
and Table 7.

Automatic frequency control is provided using an internal
Analog-to-Digital Converter controlled by the voltage on
pin ADC. The ADC code is read during a READ operation;
see Table 8.
The device requires to be addressed by five sequential
serial bytes (including the address byte) via the I
2
C-bus to
set the crystal oscillator frequency, program the five ports
and to set the charge-pump current; see Table 1. The
address byte can have one of four possible device
addresses which are selected by applying a specific
voltage to pin AS; see Table 3.
