Application
General
The U2510B is a bipolar monolithic IC for use in radio One of the general advantages of using the U2510B is the
sets, for example, headphone receivers, radio recorders fact that all receiver functions (including the options) are
and clock radios. The IC contains all AM, FM, AF and integrated and tested on a system level. Therefore, two
switching function blocks necessary to construct these additional cost-savings are achieved by:
kinds of radio receivers using only few components 1. Shorter development time through less technical
around the IC. In the design, special efforts were made to problems and
get good performance for all AM bands (short and long
2. Higher reproductivity and low reject level in the set
wave).
production line.
The implementation of enhanced functions (options) Another advantage, due to the technology of the
makes it possible to improve the radio’s performance and U2510B, is the wide operating voltage range, espe-
to produce radios with interesting features. In this case cially the upper limit (13 V). This feature allows the
few (external) parts have to be changed or added. By use of soft power supply for line powered radios

different types or classes of radios can be designed to the
customer ’s requirements with the same IC.

Rev. A3, 23-Feb-01 9 (15)

U2510B
Circuit Example
Figure 17 shows a circuit diagram for low end AM/AF
radios using the U2510B. Figure 18 shows a circuit
diagram of AM/AF radio for higher class designs using all
possible options of the U2510B. The layout of the PC
board, shown in figure 19, is suitable for both the circuit
example shown in figure 17 and the circuit example
shown in figure 18. The associated coil, varicon and filter
specifications are listed in the table: COIL DATA and
SPECIAL COMPONENT PARTS. The circuit diagram
(figure 18), has the following options compared to the
circuit diagram (figure 17) (the additional parts, which
have to be provided, are listed in parentheses):
a) Soft mute and high cut control in FM mode (1 cap.)
b) Electronic treble control in AM, FM and TAPE mode
(1 pot.)
c) On-chip mode control for TAPE application
d) RF AGC in FM mode (1 capacitor)
e) AFC, adjustable to the correct polarity and slope
(1 cap.)
f) Tuning indication using LED as an indicator
(1 LED, 1 cap.)
Option a) reduces the interstation noise by the two
functions: soft mute and HCC. Both are controlled by the
mute voltage (Pin 1). The soft mute reduces the loudness
only, while the HCC reduces the high-end audio cut-off
frequency of the audio preamplifier, when the signal level
falls below a given threshold. This signal level threshold
as well as the mute depth can be reduced by adding a
resistor (R3) or by increasing the FM front–end gain.
Option b) allows the treble control for all operating modes
without the need of an additional capacitor. This concept
leads to a smooth and correct treble control behavior
which is an improvement compared to the controlled RC
network normally used.
Option c) is very useful for application in radio
cassette-recorders, for instance. In TAPE mode, the
AM/FM receiver blocks are completely switched off and
the signal from the tape recorder can be fed to the audio
amplifier ’s input directly. This saves quiescent current
and makes the TAPE switching easy. However, to
minimize switching noise by the mode switch, the
following switch sequence should be chosen: AM, FM,
TAPE.
Option d) improves the strong signal behavior by
protecting the FM mixer against overload. This is
provided by the integrated broad-band-width RF AGC. If
necessary, the AGC threshold can be decreased by a
resistor, loading Pin 11 to GND (not shown).
10 (15)
Option e) improves the tuning behavior substantially. The
special design of the on-chip AFC function means that
common disadvantages such as asymmetrical slope,
(chip-) temperature effects and unlimited holding range
are avoided. As mentioned in the “Pinning Description
Table”, the AFC slope has to be inverted when the local
oscillator (LO) frequency has to be below the receiving
frequency. This can be achieved by connecting Pin 21 to
the potential of Pin 8. In addition to the options described
above, the following proposals are implemented in the
circuit diagram (figure 18), too:

An FM IFT is applied. This improves the channel
selectivity and minimizes substantially the spurious
responses caused by the FM ceramic filter (CF2). With
the choice of the winding ratio of this IFT, the FM
front end gain can be matched to other values if neces-
sary.

In the FM RF input section, the low cost antenna filter
(L5, C15) is replaced by a special band pass filter
(PFWE8). Such a BPF protects the FM front end
against the out-off-band interference signals (TV
channels, etc.) which could disturb the FM reception.
Design Hints
The value of the power supply blocking capacitor C13
should not be below 470 F. In addition, this capacitor
should be placed near Pin 26. This will help to avoid
unacceptable noise generated by noise-radiation from the
audio amplifier via the bar-antenna. In designs, where the
supply voltage goes below 2.5 V, the value of the blocking
capacitor (C7) should be chosen as 47 F or even higher.
To achieve a high rejection of short wave reception in
medium wave operation, the LO amplitude at Pin 5
should not exceed approximately 200 mV. This LO
amplitude depends on the LO transformer’s Q and its
turns ratio. For the LO transformer type described in the
“Coil Data Table”, a resistor R4 (2.2 k for example) in
parallel to the secondary side of the AM LO transformer
T2 is recommended. To minimize feedback effects in the
RF/IF part in FM mode, the capacitor C6 should be placed
as near to Pins 8 and 20 as possible.
As shown in the application circuit diagrams (figures 17
and 18), in FM mode ceramic filter devices are used for
channel selection (CF2) while for FM, demodulation in
LC-discriminator circuit (T4, C24, C25) is used instead of
a ceramic discriminator device.
Such an LC discriminator circuit can be easily matched
to the FM IF selectivity block by its alignment. The zero-
crossing of the discriminator can be detected at the
demodulator output (Pin 23). The zero-crossing voltage
is equal to half of the regulated voltage at Pin 8.
Rev. A3, 23-Feb-01

The alignment of the LC-discriminator circuit should be
done with little or no effect on the AFC function. This can
be realized by:
– switching Pin 21 to open-circuit
– connecting Pin 1 to a voltage source of 2 V
– using a low signal level for alignment.
U2510B
In general, ceramic discriminator devices can be used,
too. In this case, the effect of unavoidable spreads in the
frequency characteristics of these case ceramic devices in
conjunction with the IC characteristic has to be consid-
ered. For example, mismatches of the characteristics
between selectivity block and FM discriminator will lead
to an increased signal-to-noise ratio at low signal level as
well as to a higher demodulation distortion level or to an
asymmetrical AFC.

Ozone Depleting Substances Policy Statement

It is the policy of Atmel Germany GmbH to

1. Meet all present and future national and international statutory requirements.

2. Regularly and continuously improve the performance of our products, processes, distribution and operating systems
with respect to their impact on the health and safety of our employees and the public, as well as their impact on
the environment.

It is particular concern to control or eliminate releases of those substances into the atmosphere which are known as
ozone depleting substances (ODSs).

The Montreal Protocol (1987) and its London Amendments (1990) intend to severely restrict the use of ODSs and forbid
their use within the next ten years. Various national and international initiatives are pressing for an earlier ban on these
substances.

Atmel Germany GmbH has been able to use its policy of continuous improvements to eliminate the use of ODSs listed
in the following documents.

1. Annex A, B and list of transitional substances of the Montreal Protocol and the London Amendments respectively

2. Class I and II ozone depleting substances in the Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990 by the Environmental
Protection Agency (EPA) in the USA

3. Council Decision 88/540/EEC and 91/690/EEC Annex A, B and C (transitional substances) respectively.

Atmel Germany GmbH can certify that our semiconductors are not manufactured with ozone depleting substances
and do not contain such substances.

We reserve the right to make changes to improve technical design and may do so without further notice.
Parameters can vary in different applications. All operating parameters must be validated for each customer
application by the customer. Should the buyer use Atmel Wireless & Microcontrollers products for any unintended
or unauthorized application, the buyer shall indemnify Atmel Wireless & Microcontrollers against all claims,
costs, damages, and expenses, arising out of, directly or indirectly, any claim of personal damage, injury or death
associated with such unintended or unauthorized use.
