Overview

The STK311-050 is an RDS/RBDS demodulator hybrid IC for the Radio Data System (RDS) and the Radio Broadcast Data System (RBDS), or multiplexed FM broadcasting of various kinds of data, specified by the European Broadcasting Union (EBU) and US National Radio System Committee (NRSC), respectively. It demodulates the multiplexed data modulating signal to recover the RDS/RBDS signal and performs synchronization, error detection and error correction, Further, low-profile packaging is realized using Sanyo’s insulated metal substrate technology (IMST) for the base, SC system and photoresist technologies and folded board construction.

Features

• 57kHz BPF built-in for adjustment-free operation

• 4MHz ceramic oscillator element built-in

• Few external components required for a complete RDS/RBDS data demodulation system

• ARI-SK/DK decoder built-in

Applications

• Car stereos

• Home stereos
