3. Functional Description
The ATR4251 is an integrated AM/FM antenna impedance matching circuit. It compensates
cable losses between the antenna (for example windshield, roof, or bumper antennas) and the
car radio which is usually placed far away from the antenna.
AM refers to the long wave (LW), medium wave (MW) and short wave (SW) frequency bands
(150 kHz to 30 MHz) that are usually used for AM transmission, and FM means any of the fre-
quency bands used world-wide for FM radio broadcast (70 MHz to 110 MHz).
Two separate amplifiers are used for AM and FM due to the different operating frequencies and
requirements in the AM and FM band. This allows the use of separate antennas (for example,
windshield antennas) for AM and FM. Of course, both amplifiers can also be connected to one
antenna (for example, the roof antenna).
Both amplifiers have automatic gain control (AGC) circuits in order to avoid overdriving the
amplifiers under large-signal conditions. The two separate AGC circuits prevent strong AM sig-
nals from blocking FM stations, and vice versa.
3.1 AM Amplifier
Due to the long wavelength in AM bands, the antennas used for AM reception in automotive
applications must be short compared to the wavelength. Therefore these antennas do not pro-
vide 50Ω output impedance, but have an output impedance of some pF. If these (passive)
antennas are connected to the car radio by a long cable, the capacitive load of this cable (some
100 pF) dramatically reduces the signal level at the tuner input.
In order to overcome this problem, ATR4251 provides an AM buffer amplifier with low input
capacitance (less than 2.5 pF) and low output impedance (5Ω). The low input capacitance of the
amplifier reduces the capacitive load at the antenna, and the low impedance output driver is able
to drive the capacitive load of the cable. The voltage gain of the amplifier is close to 1 (0 dB), but
the insertion gain that is achieved when the buffer amplifier is inserted between antenna output
and cable may be much higher (35 dB). The actual value depends, of course, on antenna and
cable impedance.
The input of the amplifier is connected by an external 4.7 MΩ resistor to the bias voltage (pin 7,
SSO20) in order to achieve high input impedance and low noise voltage.
AM tuners in car radios usually use PIN diode attenuators at their input. These PIN diode atten-
uators attenuate the signal by reducing the input impedance of the tuner. Therefore, a series
resistor is used at the AM amplifier output in the standard application. This series resistor guar-
antees a well-defined source impedance for the radio tuner and protects the output of the AM
amplifier from short circuit by the PIN diode attenuator in the car radio.

3.2 AM AGC
The IC is equipped with an AM AGC capability to prevent overdriving of the amplifier in case the
amplifier operates near strong antenna signal level, for example, transmitters.
The AM amplifier output AMOUT1 is applied to a resistive voltage divider. This divided signal is
applied to the AGC level detector input pin AGCAMIN. The rectified signal is compared against
an internal reference. The threshold of the AGC can be adjusted by adjusting the divider ratio of
the external voltage divider. If the threshold is reached, pin AGCAM opens an external transistor
which controls PIN diode currents and limits the antenna signal and thereby prevents overdriv-
ing the AM amplifier IC.
3.3 FM Amplifier
The FM amplifier is realized with a single NPN transistor. This allows use of an amplifier config-
uration optimized on the requirements. For low-cost applications, the common emitter
configuration provides good performance at reasonable bills of materials (BOM) cost(1). For
high-end applications, common base configuration with lossless transformer feedback provides
a high IP3 and a low noise figure at reasonable current consumption(2). In both configurations,
gain, input, and output impedance can be adjusted by modification of external components.
The temperature compensated bias voltage (VREF1) for the base of the NPN transistor is
derived from an integrated band gap reference. The bias current of the FM amplifier is defined
by an external resistor.
Notes: 1. See test circuit (Figure 8-1 on page 11)
2. See application circuit (Figure 9-1 on page 12)
3.4 FM/TV AGC
The IC is equipped with an AGC capability to prevent overdriving the amplifier in cases when the
amplifier is operated with strong antenna signals (for example, near transmitters).
It is possible to realize an external TV antenna amplifier with integrated AGC and external RF
transistor. The bandwidth of the integrated AGC circuit is 900 MHz.
FM amplifier output FMOUT is connected to a capacitive voltage divider and the divided signal is
applied to the AGC level detector at pin AGCIN. This level detector input is optimized for low dis-
tortion. The rectified signal is compared against an internal reference. The threshold of the AGC
can be adjusted by adjusting the divider ratio of the external voltage divider. If the threshold is
reached, pin AGC1 opens an external transistor which controls the PIN diode current, this limits
the amplifier input signal level and prevents overdriving the FM amplifier.
