GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The TDA9875A is a single-chip Digital TV Sound
Processor (DTVSP) for analog and digital multi-channel
sound systems in TV sets and satellite receivers.
2.1
Supported standards
The multistandard/multi-stereo capability of the
TDA9875A is mainly of interest in Europe, but also in
Hong Kong/Peoples Republic of China and
South East Asia. This includes B/G, D/K, I, M and L
standards. In other application areas there exists only
subsets of these standard combinations otherwise only
single standards are transmitted.
M standard is transmitted in Europe by the American
Forces Network (AFN) with European channel spacing
(7 MHz VHF and 8 MHz UHF) and monaural sound.
The AM sound of L/L accent standard is normally
demodulated in the first sound IF. The resulting AF signal
has to be entered into the mono audio input of the
TDA9875A. A second possibility is to use the internal
AM demodulator stage, however this gives limited
performance.
Korea has a stereo sound system similar to Europe and is
supported by the TDA9875A. The differences include
deviation, modulation contents and identification. It is
based on M standard.
An overview of the supported standards and sound
systems and their key parameters is given in Table 1.
The analog multi-channel sound systems (A2, A2+ and
A2*) are 2-Carrier Systems (2CS).
