ULN3809A phase-locked loop decoder demodulates standard composite FM stereo input signals within the range of 0.25 to 1.7 V pp without the use of tuning coils. Integrated circuit design allows tuning with a single resistive adjustment. The decoder automatically switches between stereo and monaural operation by detection and evaluation of the 19-kHz pilot carrier signal.
Type ULN-3809A exhibits 35 dB suppression of the 19-kHz pilot and 45 dB rejection of the regenerated 38-kHz subcarrier at demodulator output terminals. Stereo channel separation is typically 47dB. With a composite input signal of 850 mV, the total harmonic distortion for the unit is typically 0.06%. Type ULN-3809A is designed to work within a range of supply voltages from 4.5 to 16V.
