NTE744
Integrated Circuit
RF/IF Amp
Description:
The NTE744 is a monolithic silicon integrated circuit that provides an rf amplifier, if amplifier, mixer,
oscillator, AGC detector, and voltage regulator on a single chip. It is intended for use in super鈥揾etero-
dyne AM radio receiver applications particularly in automobiles. The NTE744 is supplied in a 14鈥搇ead
dual鈥搃n鈥搇ine plastic package and operates over the temperature range of 鈥?5擄 to 125擄C.
Features:
D
Low鈥搉oise, low鈥揜
b
, rf stage in cascode connection鈥揺liminates Miller鈥揈ffect regeneration and
allows controlled power rise by the choice of external components.
D
Mixer鈥搊scillator stage with internal feedback鈥揺liminates need for tapped or multi鈥搘inding os-
cillator coils
D
Cascode if amplifier with controlled output impedance and negligible Miller Effect鈥揺liminates
regeneration and selectivity skewing
D
Frequency鈥揷ounter AGC circuit鈥揳llows control of AGC response by selection of the coupling
capacitor.
D
Integral regulation with built鈥搃n surge protection
D
Separately accessible amplifiers
