Philips Semiconductors
Car radio Digital Signal Processor (DSP)
Product specification
SAA7706H
• Noise generator allows for frequency response
measurements
• Boot-up ROM for fast start-up
• Signal level, noise and multipath detection for AM or FM
signal quality information
• AM co-channel and adjacent channel detection (not in
all rom_codes available).
2 APPLICATIONS
• High-end car radio systems.
3 GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The SAA7706H performs all the signal functions in front of
the power amplifiers and behind the car radio tuner
AM and FM outputs and the CD, tape and phone inputs.
These functions are:
• Interference absorption
• Stereo decoding for FM and AM (stereo)
• RDS-demodulation
• FM and AM weak signal processing (soft mute, sliding
stereo and high cut)
• Dolby-B tape noise reduction
• CD de-emphasis function
• Audio controls for volume, balance, fader, tone and
dynamics compression.
Some functions have been implemented in hardware
(FM stereo decoder, RDS-demodulator and
FM Interference Absorption Circuit (IAC) and are not freely
programmable.
Digital audio signals from external sources with the Philips
I2S-bus and the LSB-justified 16, 18, 20 and 24 bits format
or SPDIF format are accepted.
The big advantage of this SAA7706H device is the ‘dual
media support’; this enables independent front seat and
rear seat audio sources and control.
