Designing high-end consumer and professional audio equipment requires considerable audio application expertise and state-of-the art components. To achieve the highest possible performance, some audio designers rely on discrete components to create their AM/FM receiver designs. However, this hand-crafted, discrete-intensive approach results in higher system cost, limited configurability and design risks. Fortunately, highly integrated AM/FM receivers are now available to help designers reduce system cost and design complexity. This white paper explores how feature-rich, single-chip AM/FM receivers address key requirements and performance considerations for high-end audio equipment including: sensitivity, third-order inter-modulation (IP3), selectivity and dynamic bandwidth control, and multipath handling.
