DIFFERENCES WITH PREVIOUS CCR612 (AN94067).

This note, Diagrams and Performance, valid for CCR612 radio sample (version D) controlled by CCR610S or CCR612S software (the latter, also for CDC-changer control), differs mainly from the previous one (Version 1.0) by the following modifications and corrections.

Modifications and Improvements.

General:

Component numbering CCR612 radio sample. Unlike previous note, the electricalcomponent numbers of the PCB boards (Fig. 13b and Fig. 13d) do match with the electrical diagrams (Fig.4, Fig.7 and Fig.9), which belong to the CCR612 radio sample (Version D).

Main Board part 1a, 1b and 1c (pages 14, 15 and 16).

-A CDC-changer interface circuit has been introduced, using an extra TDA8579T and intended for CDC-changer SCC600, controlled by CCR612S software.

-Switched battery voltage circuit improved. Which delivers for external use a battery voltage only when the radio is in the Power On mode for; supplying the illumination of the detachable front and delivering a switched plus voltage for the line-out, motor antenna and CDC-changer.

-A telephone mute circuit between Connector Block and Micro Controller pins (AUMUTE and OPTROW) has been introduced. For this feature the former security contact is used. In general this is not a problem because the trend to use a security contact is decreasing by the use of detachable fronts.

-For part 1c only, the bleep input is moved from the source selector (HEF4052B) input to the Audio Pre Amplifier (TDA6320T) input.

Main Board part 2a and 2b (Page 17 and Page 18 ).

Philips Semiconductors

-Telephone mute circuit, between optrow (40) and Aumute (43) introduced.

-The use of one crystal (8.66 MHz) for both micro and RDS demodulator is not possible in this set. Because for improved RDS behaviour more 'speed' is needed which requires a crystal of 12 MHz for the micro and 8.66 MHz or 4.33 MHz for the RDS demodulator.

-For part 2b only, in the lines ON/OFF, DATA and SCL between detachable front and micro ESD protection circuits are introduced which consists of a few resistors, zener diode 5V6 (BZX79C) and 2 diodes (BAV99).

Key and Display panel SB1b (Page 21).

-Following a now a days trend the power switch, in the ON/OFF radio line,is moved to the detachable front. That means two extra contacts on both detachable front and radio are needed.

Diagram ICE Module (page 22).

-The diagram of the ICE module (Euro 1, standard) is modified, the "second" IC TEA6821 is replaced by the successor TEA6822.

-The diagram of the ICE module (Euro 1, standard) is modified, the "second" IC TEA6821 is replaced by the successor TEA6822.

PLL tuning principle

Manual tuning up / down

First one step, next after 0.5 seconds. Fast repetition at 12.5 times per second.

Local/Dx switching

The Local/Dx feature controls the search sensitivity. Default after switching on is always Dx. In the TEA6811 a tuner attenuator for the FM-band is incorporated.

Search tuning up / down

Sensitivity is controlled by Local/Dx. If after one complete band sweep in Local mode no station is found, the radio switches automatically to Dx. During search tuning the running frequency is displayed and the radio is muted.

Frequency Scan

Continuous automatic search tuning, pausing for 6 seconds on every station.

AST (Automatic Store Tuning) for FM and MW band

AST switches to FM-AST or MW-AST band, searches for the 6 strongest transmitters in the band and stores them in the AST programme preset memory. In FM, duplication of PI codes will be avoided.

Programme preset memory

For each band (FM1, FM2, MW, LW, SW (49m), FM-AST and MW-AST) 6 programme presets and a "manual" frequency are stored. In FM, additional RDS information is stored: PI code (Programme Identification), PS name (Programme Service), AF list (Alternative Frequencies) and AF follow mode on/off.

Whenever another band is selected, the radio reverts to the last frequency tuned to in the new band (this can be either a preset frequency or a manually tuned frequency).

Programme preset up / down control

Programme presets can be stored and recalled by two key control (up and down) or by 6 separate preset keys.

23

Philips Semiconductors

AF follow mode

When AF follow mode is on, the set will regularly measure the signal strength of alternative frequencies and compare it with the current station. If an alternative frequency offers better quality, the radio will switch over and update the alternative frequency list. The measuring scheme is designed to cause minimum noticeable disturbance for the listener. The interval time between two measurements depends on the signal quality.

Intelligent preset programme recall

If an FM programme preset with a known PI code is recalled, the primary frequency and all alternative frequencies stored in the programme preset memory are examined. The frequency with the best signal quality broadcasting the correct PI code will be selected. Only when the programme is not found on one of the AFs, after 6 seconds a search is started for a station with a proper PI code.

TA mode

In TA mode the radio only searches for transmitters that transmit the RDS traffic programme on the same station or on EON linked stations. The radio will automatically start a search when switching TA mode on and the current station is not a traffic station.

PTY scan mode

In PTY scan mode the radio searches for transmitters that transmit the user-selected PTY code. Dependent on the factory option USA/Europe the RBDS PTY-table or the RDS PTY-table is used. Only English PTY messages are available.

Last status memory: band, frequency, PI code, AF follow mode on/off status and TA mode on/off status are stored in memory. This status is recalled during switch on.

RDS

Bit, block and group synchronisation. (inclusive RBDS E-block detection).

Data collection and decoding of:

AF follow mode using PI and AF (see also Tuning).

Display of the programme service name in 8 alpha-numeric characters (PS name).

Display of AF, TP, TA, PTY, EON and Regional mode status via icons.

Regional mode on/off switching. When Regional mode is on, the radio will, during AF switching, only switch over to stations with exactly the same PI-code. When Regional mode is off, the radio will also

4 CCR612S PINNING AND INTERFACING

CCR612S is accommodated in a P83CE528 microcontroller in a 44-pins Quad Flat Package. It is manufactured in CMOS technology and is a derivative of the 80C51 microcontroller family. It contains 32 kbytes of ROM and 512 bytes of RAM.

For electrical characteristics of I/O pins, see the P83CE528 data sheet.

4.1Pinning overview

When the radio is equipped with a detachable keyboard, pins KEYB5_FSDA & KEYB6_FSCL (pins 23 & 24) are used as I2C-bus lines to the detachable keyboard. Otherwise pin 23 and pin 24 are used as scan lines for the fixed keyboard.

Figure 4 Pinning of CCR612S

In case of conventional audio sound control circuitry, pin SEL0_SOLND and SEL1_PAUSE are used to select between the various audio sources (radio, CD-changer, cassette, external output) by means of a dual 4 channel analogue multiplexer (e.g. HEF4052B). If a TEA632x is installed these pins can be used for respectively solenoid control and AMS pause input control.

4.5Power stabilizer interface.

For switching the radio on and off, the microcontroller is linked with the voltage stabilizer circuit TDA3602. The pins involved in this interface are RESET, ON and HOLD.

Figure 8 shows a circuit diagram of the reset circuitry and the voltage stabilizer interface.

The TDA3602 has a number of different states, which are selected by the voltage on the state control input Vsc on pin 4. The following states are used:

To switch the radio on, the voltage stabilizer must be brought in reset state. It generates a reset pulse for the microcontroller with its reset output pin. The microcontroller program starts, and decides whether the radio must stay on or must switch off again. When it must stay on, output pin "ON" is pulled low, bringing the TDA3602 in the "ON" state. Else, the stabilizer stays in reset state, or returns to coma state eventually.

42

Philips Semiconductors

The reset pulse for the microcontroller must be at least 20 msec. wide, measured at the threshold level (max. 3.5 V).

After the end of the reset pulse the power key is sensed and the "KEYB0" output is pulled low to keep the stabilizer into the reset mode.

When the radio should stay on, (see switching on and off, paragraph 6.1), the "ON" output is pulled low after the check of the option diodes and when the power key is released.

After approximately 400 msec., the microcontroller tests the HOLD input. If it is low, something is wrong and the set is switched off, but internally a reset will be generated and the set will try to switch on again. Else it is continuously monitored for supply voltage failure e.g. starting the cars engine.

The power key is a momentary push-button, closed only as long as it is pressed down.

The PTY scan is started by pressing the PTY key for 2 seconds (until the radio bleeps). A search is started for the selected PTY code.

When a PTY code is received the PTY icon is on.

When a PTY search is busy, the PTY icon is blinking.

51

Philips Semiconductors

When TA mode is on, and a traffic announcement is transmitted:

-If the radio is muted, it will be de-muted for the duration of the traffic announcement.

-If the radio was in cassette or external mode, it will switch temporarily to radio mode.

-Temporary switch over to an EON linked station when EON detects a traffic announcement on that other station.

-If the volume setting was very low, it will be raised temporarily. If the user does not change the volume setting, it will return to the original value at the end of the traffic announcement.

-The TA icon (and the EON icon in case of EON TA) will blink.

The current traffic announcement can be cancelled by pressing the TA key, the TA mode will not be switched off. This can be useful to cancel for example an unwanted EON traffic announcement.

The radio will automatically start a search when switching on TA mode and the current station is not a traffic station.

52

Philips Semiconductors

The state of the AF follow mode is displayed by the AF Icon:

When AF follow mode is on, the radio will from time to time measure the signal strength of the alternative frequencies that come with the RDS data. The interval between measurements depends on the signal strength of the current station, in the order of 1 minute for strong stations to a few seconds for weak stations. When the radio finds an alternative frequency that is - in several successive measurements - stronger than the current frequency, it switches over to that frequency.

53

Philips Semiconductors

The fader function is only available if the 2/4 loudspeakers option in the user programmable options was set to "4 SPKRS".

By default, the VOL-UP and VOL-DOWN keys operate on volume. When none of the keys select, VOL-UP or VOL-DOWN is pressed within 6 seconds, or when any other key is pressed, the default function volume is restored. This key function is disabled if no digital sound control chip is installed.

54

Philips Semiconductors

In this mode the user can select the next options: - 2-Loudspeakers / 4-Loudspeakers,

(in 2-speaker mode, the fader function is not available). (This option is skipped when no digital sound control chip is installed).

- Loudness on/off,

(alternative for the loudness key, if loudness option is available). - TA volume (A selection can be made of 5 different sound levels for

traffic news and PTY alarm messages This option is skipped when no digital sound control chip is installed).

6 FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION

6.1Switching on / off

To switch the radio on, a reset pulse must be applied to the microcontroller. The software will then perform a number of checks, and may either turn on all voltages, or switch the radio off again.

With a bad battery, the voltage may drop so far that the "HOLD" output of the voltage stabilizer goes low, e.g. during starting of the cars engine, and the radio switches off. The radio will switch on immediately when the voltage returns to a normal value.

If the radio was previously switched off by turning the ignition off, it will switch on when the ignition key is turned on again.

The radio can also be switched on with the power key while ignition is off. In that case a sleep timer is started that turns the radio off after 60 minutes unless ignition is switched on in the mean time.

The table below shows the differences between the static on/off switch and the momentary power key.

57

6.2Tuning

6.2.1Band switching

Band switching can be done with the AST and BAND keys (see Figure 12). In the AST bands, the AST icon is on. Band switching is only accessible in Radio Mode.

Figure 12 Band selection

6.2.2Manual/search tuning

Figure 13 shows how to switch between the tuning modes. In preset mode, a preset number is shown on the display. In other modes, no preset number is shown. When leaving preset mode, any update of preset data (current frequency, PS name, AF list, AF follow mode bit) is stored in NVM. Switching of tuning mode may be done either by pressing FREQ-UP and FREQ-DOWN keys together, or by pressing the AUTO / MANUAL key. When pressing AUTO / MANUAL or FREQ-UP / FREQ-DOWN, a message "AUTO" or "MANUAL" is shown on the display to indicate the new state.

When key FREQ-UP or FREQ-DOWN is pressed, the radio will make one frequency step. When the key is pressed longer than 0.5 seconds, the frequency will start to run with a repetition rate of 12.5 steps per second.

Figure 13 Tuning modes

In search tuning mode, after pressing the FREQ-UP / FREQ-DOWN key, the frequency starts running and will stop on either a new frequency or at the frequency from which the search was started. For this search action two criteria are taken into account:

-search sensitivity Local (high signal level) or Dx (low signal level).

-Ta mode on, the search will only stop at traffic programmes.

When the radio is in Local mode and after one band sweep no station was found, the search sensitivity is switched to Dx. If still no valid station can be found, the radio returns to the frequency from which the search was started.

Depending on these criteria a maximum of two band sweeps will be made, trying to offer a frequency fulfilling the search criteria.

For FM, a Local / Dx switch is incorporated in the TEA6811. Putting the radio in Local mode results in an attenuation of the aerial signal with 15 dB. For AM, the signal levels read back from the TEA6822 are used to create the Local /Dx functionality. In AM mode, the search stop level for Local is set 22 dB higher than when the radio is in Dx-mode.

During a tuning action - manual or automatic - the display will show the running frequency at any time.

59

Philips Semiconductors

6.2.3Frequency scan

The frequency scan mode enables the user to listen to all stations transmitted in the selected band (FM, MW, LW or SW). The radio pauses for 6 seconds on every station found before search is started again. During frequency scan, TA mode is included in the stop criteria in the same way as during normal search. EON traffic announcements are skipped during frequency scan mode.

Frequency scan is cancelled by every other tuning function. The radio will switch to the last valid station when the cancelling takes place during search. Frequency scan mode is only accessible when the radio is in Radio Mode.

6.2.4Selecting preset stations

In each band, there are 6 presets. To select a preset station:

If the radio is equipped with 6 preset selection keys (P1 - P6) - Press short on the key of the desired station.

If the radio is equipped only with PRE-UP / PRE-DOWN keys

- Press either PRE-UP or PRE-DOWN repeatedly until the desired station is selected. (Do not hold down the key, because then the preset store function will be executed).

If initially no preset number was displayed, the first preset selected will be the last preset number used in the band.

Selecting preset stations is only accessible in Radio Mode.

6.2.5Storing stations in preset memory

If the radio is equipped with 6 preset selection keys (P1 - P6)

-Press key of the preset number to be stored until the radio bleeps (2 seconds). The station is now stored.

If the radio is equipped only with PRE-UP / PRE-DOWN keys

-If the current preset number is the desired preset number:

-Press either the PRE-UP or PRE-DOWN key until the radio bleeps (2 seconds). The station is now stored.

-If the current preset number is not the desired preset number:

-Press keys PRE-UP and PRE-DOWN at the same time. The preset number will start to blink.

-Press either PRE-UP or PRE-DOWN repeatedly until the desired preset number is displayed. (The tuned frequency does not change).

-Press either the PRE-UP or PRE-DOWN key until the radio bleeps (2 seconds). The station is now stored. The preset number stops blinking.

The preset store mode is cancelled when the PRE-UP and PRE-DOWN are pressed again together, when an other key is pressed or when no key is pressed for 6 seconds.

Storing stations in preset memory is only accessible in Radio Mode.

6.2.6AST search

To start an AST (Automatic Store Tuning) search, press the AST key until the radio bleeps (2 seconds). Now, the following actions are taken:

1. If the radio is not in an AST band, it switches to the relevant AST band

AST is not available in the LW and SW bands.

2.The 6 strongest stations will be stored in the NVM, ignoring TA mode. The whole band is scanned for transmitters, a maximum of two sweeps will be made, one in Local mode and if necessary one in Dx mode). If less than 6 stations were found, the last preset memory locations are not replaced.

3.Preset-1 is selected.

During the whole process, the radio is muted and the message "STORE" is shown on the display unless the radio is in CD-changer / External / Cassette Mode.

6.2.7The LOCAL/DX key

The user can control the search sensitivity of the radio via the so called Local/Dx feature. In Local mode, the radio will only stop at strong stations. In Dx mode, a search action will also stop at weaker stations. The Local/Dx status is displayed via an icon. After power on, the radio will always go in Dx mode.

When the radio is in search tuning mode the tuner Local/Dx status depends on the Local/Dx setting. As soon as the radio is in stable tuning condition the tuner attenuator status will be Dx.

6.3CD-Changer, Cassette and external source interface

CCR612 is equipped with five different audio sources (radio, CD-changer, cassette, external plug and bleep) each source is associated with a corresponding mode. Only one source can be selected at a time. Source selection is accomplished by the sofac or by source select pins in case no sofac is installed. Source switching can be invoked in two ways. The first way is pushing the MODE key, this will result in toggling through all available sources(Radio, CD-changer, Cassette, External plug, Radio). Furthermore an external event can invoke the source switching ( see Figure 14). The following external events are possible: insert cassette, eject cassette, insert external plug and remove external plug.

Automatic selections can be overruled by the MODE key.

When the radio is switched off, the source select state is stored in NVM. The same state is selected again when the radio is switched on.

61

Figure 14 Source selection by external event.

6.3.1The MODE key

Automatic source selection can be overruled by using the MODE key. Each time the MODE key is pressed, the next source is selected in the order:

Radio -> CD-changer -> Cassette -> External.

Cassette mode can be selected only if a tape is present in the cassette deck.

External mode can be selected only if a connector is present in the external audio jack.

6.3.2CD-changer mode

The presence of a CD-changer is asserted during the power-on phase of the radio. The CD-changer can only be selected if the CD-changer was present during power-on. The CD-changer mode can only be selected with the MODE key.

While in CD-changer mode the following key mapping applies:

6.3.3Cassette functions

The cassette interface is based on a mechanical tape deck. When a cassette is playing, the display will show the text "PLAY >" or "PLAY <" indicating the play direction. During fast winding, no direction information is available. The display will show "CAS WIND". When fast winding for more than 4 seconds, the set will temporarily switch to radio mode.

While in cassette mode, the keys P-4, P-5/PRE-UP and P-6/PRE-DOWN control the functions AMS (Automatic Music Search), MTL (Metal/Chromium) and Dolby respectively. The keys toggle the corresponding output pins, the function itself is executed by the cassette deck circuitry. When a function is not available in the cassette deck, the corresponding pin must be connected to ground.

The state of the AMS, ME/CR and Dolby functions is displayed by icons. If a TEA632x is installed the cassette solenoid and AMS pause function are available. The solenoid function takes care of playing in the correct direction after switching to cassette mode and together with the AMS pause function, it takes care of controlling the AMS function. Search (in both directions) for the next music piece by detecting a blank area on the tape. If no TEA632x is installed (potentiometer sound control) the AMS function and the solenoid function are not available. If the cassette drive does not have the AMS function the CAMS pin must be connected to ground.

6.3.4External audio source

An external audio input is available to connect e.g. a CD player. The external input jack has a switch to sense whether a connector is inserted. While the radio is in external mode, the text "EXTERNAL" is shown on the display. When no external audio selection is available the EXSTAT pin must be connected to Ground.

6.4Audio control

Most of the audio control facilities are available only if a digital sound and fader control chip (Sofac) is installed. If no digital sound control chip is used, the following signals should be used in combination with potentiometer control:

The volume at power on is limited to -10 dB when digital sound control is available.

6.4.1The SELECT key

By default, the VOL-UP and VOL-DOWN keys control the volume. To select other functions, press the select key short until the desired function is shown on the display. Figure 15 shows how control functions are selected using the select key. If the 2-speaker option is selected in the user programmable options, the fader function is not available and the fader setting is always mid-range. This function is disabled if no digital sound control chip is installed.

VOLU ME S E L E C T

Figure 15 Selection of sound control functions

6.4.2Changing a setting

To change a setting, press the VOL-UP or VOL-DOWN key until the desired level is reached. As long as a key is pressed, the bass and treble function changes with 4 steps per second and the volume, balance and fader function will change with 8 steps per second. The table below shows the control range and step size for the audio control functions.

The volume setting is not shown on the display. Other functions are shown on the display(e.g. BASS +6).

6.4.3The LOUD key / RESET function

Loudness is switched on/off by pressing the LOUD key short. When loudness is on, bass and treble are added to the audio signal, depending on the volume level. The loudness function is carried out by the TEA632x. If no TEA632x is installed the loudness function is carried out by external loudness circuitry controlled by the LOUDN pin. The loudness on off status is displayed via an icon. When the loudness key is pressed for 4 seconds (until the radio bleeps), the reset function is executed. This function sets bass,

64

Philips Semiconductors

treble, balance and fader to mid-range and will switch loudness off. The display shows the text "RESET" for 2 seconds.

6.4.4The MUTE key

When the mute key is pressed, all audio output is suppressed, and the display will show the text "MUTE". Any keypress will cancel the mute state. The audio control settings are not altered. When TA mode is on and a traffic announcement or a PTY alarm message is broadcast, the mute state is temporarily suspended.

6.4.5Phone mute

When pin Aumute is pulled to ground externally by a connected car phone, the car radio sound is muted and the display will show "PHONE".

6.4.6Power ampli??er diagnostics control

CCR612 can be equipped with power amplifiers with a diagnostics interface. This interface consists of one pin which is low at erroneous situations. CCR612S will continuously monitor this pin and can detect one of the following situations:

Clipping

-The bass and or volume level will be decreased depending on the amount of clipping.

-While clipping is detected and clipping control is active the clipping icon is on.

Too high temperature / short circuit

-CCR612 will display the error message "ERROR" on the LCD.

6.4.7User programmable options

Some options can be programmed by the user. The options are stored in NVM, and remain in effect until reprogrammed by the user. The options are:

2 SPKRS / 4 SPKRS

Indicates how many loudspeakers are connected to the radio. If "2 speakers" is selected, the fader function is not available, and fader setting is always mid-range.

LOUD ON / LOUD OFF

If no loudness key is installed, loudness can be switched on/off using this option in case the loudness function is available.

TA LVL -2 / -1 / 0 / + 1 / + 2

The volume level during a Traffic Announcement or PTY Alarm can be set to one of 5 fixed values varying from -12 dB to -4 dB in steps of 2 dB. When this function is selected during Traffic Announcement or PTY Alarm the volume level will change to the level selected.

6.5RDS / RBDS functions

The RDS / RBDS functions are available only if the radio is tuned to an FM band.

6.5.1AF follow mode

The AF follow mode mechanism is switched on/off by pressing the AF key short. When AF follow mode is on, the AF icon is switched on. If no RDS data is received, the AF icon blinks.

In AF follow mode, the radio measures at regular intervals, (interval time depends on the signal quality), the signal level at frequencies that are mentioned in the list of alternative frequencies (AF's) for the current station. For these measurements, the reception of the current station is interrupted for a very short period (appr. 7 milliseconds), and it is hardly noticeable. If an alternative frequency is stronger than the current station for a few seconds (depending on the signal quality), the radio switches to that alternative frequency. It switches also if the quality of the current station becomes suddenly very poor, or if its RDS data cannot be received. The quality of a station is a function of signal level as well as multipath condition.

The AF follow mechanism is always active when AF follow mode is on, even when the radio is muted or is in CD-changer or cassette or external mode.

When the user starts a tuning action (band, preset, FREQ-UP / FREQ-DOWN), or when the radio is switched off, the new frequency and the AF list are stored in NVM. These will be used later on when selecting the preset again.

66

Philips Semiconductors

6.5.2PTY functions

CCR612 offers the user the possibility to search for a station with a certain user selected PTY code. When key PTY is pressed, the currently received PTY code is displayed. If no PTY code is received the display will show "NO PTY" . By pressing the key FREQ-UP or FREQ-DOWN, the user can select the PTY code of his choice. When key PTY is pressed for 2 seconds (while the radio is in the PTY selecting mode), the radio will start a PTY search for the selected PTY code. Figure 17 shows how to select a programme type. Only one programme type can be selected.

ALERT!

Figure 17 Selecting the PTY code

PTY codes "ALARM" / "TEST" / "ALERT!" can not be selected. The radio will respond to a PTY alarm message in the same way as a TA traffic announcement, independent of TA mode. For the USA application the RBDS PTY table is used.

During a PTY search the PTY icon blinks. When the radio receives a PTY code, the PTY icon is on. When TA mode is on during a PTY search, the radio will first try to find a station which is a traffic station with the correct PTY code. When no such station can be found (even not in Dx mode), the radio will drop

67

Philips Semiconductors

the TA requirement and search only for a station with the correct PTY code. If still no station can be found, the radio will return to its original tuned frequency.

6.5.3Traffic announcements

Traffic announcements have a special meaning only when TA mode is on.

To switch TA mode on/off, press the TA key. When TA mode is on, the TA icon is on. If the current station is not a traffic station, the TP icon blinks, and a warning bleep is generated every 30 seconds.

If TA mode is on, the next happens when a traffic announcement is broadcast:

1.If the traffic announcement is detected via EON, the radio will switch to the linked programme service transmitting the traffic announcement. The radio will stay at least 4 seconds on this programme before switching back to the original programme to give the broadcaster time to synchronise the RDS TP and TA data over its network.

AF follow mode is disabled during an EON traffic announcement.

2.If the radio is in CD-changer, cassette mode or in external mode, it switches temporarily to radio mode, and the display will show the programme service name of the received station.

3.If the radio is muted, it is temporarily de-muted, and the "MUTE" message is removed from the display.

4.If the volume was low, it is raised to the TA volume level as installed under the user options (see: user programmable options). Also, the TA output pin is made low.

5.The TA icon blinks. In case of a traffic announcement on an EON linked station, the EON icon will also blink.

At the end of the traffic announcement, the old situation is restored again (after an EON traffic announcement the radio will switch back to the original station). If the user has not changed the volume setting, it is restored to the value before the traffic announcement. If the volume level was changed, the new value will be retained.

The current traffic announcement can be cancelled by pressing the TA key, the TA mode remains on.

6.5.4PTY alarm broadcasts

A PTY alarm message is treated the same way as a traffic announcement. A PTY alarm message will break-in, even when TA mode is off.

7 RDS / RBDS FACILITIES.

As soon as the radio is steadily tuned to an FM station, it will start collecting RDS information. The next items are extracted from the stream of RDS data:

Most data is validated, e.g. the same data must be received twice before it is accepted as a new value.

7.1Programme Identi??cation code

The PI code is invisible for the user. It is used to check whether the correct station is received after a preset is selected, or when the AF follow mechanism switches to an alternative frequency.

When a station is stored in NVM, also its PI code is stored. When the same preset is selected again, the radio verifies the PI code. If the PI code is not correct, and AF follow mode is on, the radio will search for a station with the right PI code, first by scanning all available alternative frequencies, then if after a timeout of 6 seconds the PI code is still not correct, a search tuning operation is started.

During AST Search, the PI code is used to avoid that the same programme is stored at different presets, when it can be received on more than one frequency. For USA application (RBDS) the regional function will only work for PI codes above B000hex. PI codes below B000hex do not have regional variants. AF switching is only allowed to stations with exactly the same PI code.

7.2Programme Service name

By default, the radio will display the received Programme Service name as soon as it is available. The PS name is stored in the preset memory locations. The name is then immediately displayed when a preset station is selected.

Tuning frequency instead of PS name is displayed when the radio is in manual tuning mode. Also, by means of the display key, the radio can be forced to display PTY code, frequency and PS name respectively.

7.3Programme TYpe

PTY is a code for the kind of programme that is broadcast. Figure 17 shows the names of PTY codes that are defined for RDS. CCR612 can display the PTY currently received, and it can search for a station with a specific PTY code. The user can select a PTY code and start a scan for a station transmitting this PTY code.

69

Philips Semiconductors

7.4Traffic Announcements

RDS data contains two bits called TP (Traffic Programme) and TA (Traffic Announcement), see the table below for the meaning of these bits.

The radio will start a search for a traffic station when the TA mode is switched on when the current station is not a traffic station.

If TA mode is on, and the current station is not a traffic station, the TP icon will blink, and a warning bleep is generated every 30 seconds.

If a traffic announcement is received while TA mode is on, and the radio is in CD-changer, cassette mode, external mode or muted, this mode is temporarily overruled and the traffic announcement is passed on. If the volume setting was very low, it is temporarily raised to get the user's attention.

If a traffic announcement is received via EON (RDS group 14B is received indicating the PI code of the other station transmitting the traffic announcement), the radio will check its internal pool store and will try to switch over to the other station transmitting the traffic announcement. The radio will stay on this other station for at least 4 seconds to give the broadcaster time to synchronise the RDS TP and TA data over its network.

By pressing the TA key the current traffic announcement will be cancelled but the radio remains in TA mode.

If during a traffic announcement the signal quality becomes too weak resulting in the fact that RDS reception is lost, CCR612 will cancel the traffic announcement after a timeout of 2 minutes.

7.5Alternative Frequency following

The radio will always assemble a list of alternative frequencies from the received RDS data, even when AF follow mode is off. When the current frequency is left (by tuning, band switching or by turning the radio off), the alternative frequency list is stored in NVM if it is different from the previous stored list.

70

Philips Semiconductors

1.When selecting a preset, the radio will load the AF list from NVM, and measure the signal strength of the primary frequency and all alternative frequencies. It will then select the strongest station with the correct PI code, before the radio is de-muted.

(PI codes are compared with the value stored in the preset data in NVM.)

If no station with the correct PI code is found, after 6 seconds the radio will start a search tuning for a station with the correct PI code. If still not found, it will accept the new station, but it will not update the PI code stored in NVM.

Search tuning can be cancelled by switching AF follow mode off or by pressing the AUTO / MANUAL key. The radio will then return to the original frequency.

2.At regular intervals - depending on the signal strength of the current station - the signal strength of alternative frequencies is measured. The interval varies from appr. 80 seconds when the signal level of the current station is very strong to appr. 3 seconds when it is very weak.

3.When for a certain time an AF is stronger than the current frequency, or when the current frequency becomes suddenly unacceptable e.g. due to multipath, the radio switches to the best alternative frequency.

When the programme service is left (by tuning, band switching or by turning the radio off), the new frequency is stored in NVM as the primary frequency for that preset.

The AF follow algorithm has provisions for special circumstances such as:

-Mountains and buildings. All signal strengths vary rapidly due to multipath distortion. Switch when the multipath distortion level becomes unacceptable.

-Loss of RDS data or station changes PI code. Select an alternative frequency with correct PI code.

The "quality" of a station is a value that is based on signal level as well as multipath level read from the TEA6822 by means of the I2C-bus.

7.6EON preset update

When the tuned station transmits EON information, the alternative frequencies stored for the station presets are updated via EON. Only those alternative frequency lists of station presets can be updated whose PI codes match one of the PI codes transmitted via EON. Whether or not regional variants of the PI code are taken into account depends on the status of the regional selection. If the regional selection is switched on, the transmitted PI code must exactly match the PI code to update.

If after travelling any distance while tuned to a programme service, a user selects a preset for another station which is cross-referenced by EON-information, CCR612 has to find an acceptable frequency for the new selected station in the new area, without resorting to a PI search. This should occur regardless of the distance travelled, assuming of course that the station is transmitted in the new area.
