Wireless: FM Tuner

Freescale, as the worldwide market leader for portable digital media technologies, enables companies to bring to market unique flash and hard drive based portable media players through patented semiconductor and software solutions. Freescale’s integration and support allows customers to develop devices with the longest battery life, smallest form factors, fastest time-to-market, and lowest system design costs in the market.

Developed with an optimized radio architecture, the STFM1000 FM tuner is a highly integrated, low power, single chip solution designed to provide FM radio capabilities when combined with Freescale’s SigmaTel product line portable media player SoCs.

The optimized radio architecture is designed to offer low power consumption, minimal external components for small form factor, and low cost through an optimum system partitioning and integrated automatic channel selectivity, demodulation, and stereo decoding. In addition, a complrehensive software development environment is available as part of Freescale’s world class software development kit for portable media players.
