Si473x-B20 4 Rev. 0.5 1. Product Overview The Si473x receivers are the industry's first fully-integrated multiband radio receiver ICs from antenna input to audio output. They require minimal external components with no factory alignment. The Si473x receivers reduce the receiver footprint by >90% versus traditional AM/FM solutions. The Si473x also offer best-in-class performance with the most features. The high integration and complete system production test simplifies design-in, increases system quality, and improves manufacturability. The Si473x receivers include advanced seek algorithms,...
