AMPLIFIER SUBSYSTEM
PRELIMINARY PRODUCT BRIEF
The MT1120 is a highly integrated
and complete RF amplifier
subsystem for active AM/FM
antennas
MT1120 High Performance Automotive AM/FM
Amplifier Subsystem
The MT1120 is an advanced, low-
power, highly integrated single-chip
amplifier IC specifically designed for
automotive AM/FM antenna systems
requiring low noise and very low
distortion. Additionally, the MT1120
integrates two true-RMS power
detectors and two uncommitted
op-amps in order to realize an AGC
function for AM and FM by simply
adding external PIN diodes. The
thresholds of the AM and FM AGC
function are variable and can be set
according to the application
requirements. The on-chip 2.5V
temperature compensated reference
generator and high output voltage
op-amp combine to form a low-cost,
reliable, automotive-capable power
supply which can be directly derived
from the car battery.
The MT1120 is capable of
amplifying signals with frequencies
in the 0.15 MHz to 30 MHz range for
AM and 76 MHz to 162.4 MHz range
for FM. External components
determine the gain of the AM and
FM amplifiers and can also be
modified to extend the operating
frequency of the MT1120.
The AM amplifier uses a highly
sophisticated design technology in
order to reach low noise, very low
distortion, high input impedance and
its capability to drive very low output
impedance. The FM amplifier is
matched to 50 ohms and is specially
designed to perform with very low
noise and distortion.
The small 28-pin QFN package
of the MT1120 and the requirement
for minimal external components
enables a compact, cost-effective
solution fulfilling automotive
requirements.
