Summary of FM radio using TEA5767 and PIC16F877A micro-controller
The article describes the TEA5767 single-chip FM stereo radio, highlighting its high sensitivity, integrated low-noise RF amplifier, and support for various FM bands including US, Europe, and Japan. It features an internal FM demodulator, PLL synthesizer tuning, I2C or 3-wire bus communication, soft mute, stereo noise cancelling, and autonomous search tuning. The chip operates with crystal or external frequency references and includes programmable ports and standby mode, making it ideal for compact FM radio projects when combined with microcontrollers like the PIC16F877A.
Parts used in the TEA5767 single-chip FM stereo radio:
- TEA5767 FM stereo radio IC
- Low-noise RF input amplifier (integrated in TEA5767)
- Oscillator crystal (32.768 kHz or 13 MHz)
- Fixed chip inductors (for LC tuner oscillator)
- Microcontroller (e.g., PIC16F877A)
- Power supply components
- Bus interface pins and connectors (I2C or 3-wire)
- External reference frequency source (6.5 MHz, optional)
