This paper describes the design and the implementation of a DSP-based digital IF (Intermediate Frequency) radio receiver in a low-power 0.18µm CMOS technology. Thanks to an advanced System-on-Chip mixed analog and digital solution, the proposed device performs the demodulation of both AM and FM stereo signals, digitized at the IF by means of a high dynamic range ??? bandpass analog to digital converter. Nowadays, in the AM/FM radio receiver scenario the general trend aims at the software radio, a fully digital solution encompassing RF digitization and signal processing in a DSP. The block diagram of the proposed high-performance radio receiver is shown in Fig. 2. The relevant features of this device are listed below. the device either operates as a stand-alone AM/FM stereo radio receiver or it is used in an array system for high-end dual tuner diversity applications. Analog Blocks. This module generates all the clocks and synchronization signals for the device and the reference VCO clock for the tuner. The quartz-driven 74.1MHz oscillator works at the 3 rd overtone. In order to guarantee maximum performance of the IF-ADC, the oscillator has been designed with less than 15ps rms frequency-jitter; in addition, high frequency stability over temperature is obtained exploiting a constant-gm circuit. In slave-mode the oscillator behaves as a buffer, and an external clock drives the chip. The AM/FM detector is a programmable DSP peripheral used to detect the phase, amplitude and frequency information of the input complex signal (I/Q signals).
