Today most FM radio stations in Europe and meanwhile also many FM/AM radio broadcasting stations in the USA transmit the inaudible European RDS (Radio Data System) or the USA RBDS (Radio Broadcast Data System) informations respectively. Likewise nowadays receivers, most car radios and also some home and portable radios on the market include at least some of the RDS features.
The RDS/RBDS system offers a large range of applications by its many functions to be implemented. For car radios the most important are:
The RDS/RBDS pre-processor is a CMOS device that integrates all RDS/RBDS relevant functions in one chip. The IC contains filtering and demodulation of the RDS/RBDS signal, symbol decoding, block synchronization, error detection, error correction and additional detectors for multi-path, signal quality and audio signal pauses. The pre-processed RDS/RBDS information is available via the I²C-bus.
The RDS/RBDS pre-processor replaces a number of ICs and peripheral components used nowadays in car radio concepts with RDS or RBDS features. The integration of the relevant RDS/RBDS data processing functions provides, in an economic manner, high performance of RDS/RBDS processing and reduces the real-time requirements for the main radio microcontroller considerably. In addition it simplifies the development of the RDS specific software for the main controller of the radio set.
Compared with standard radio systems, RDS/RBDS controlled radio systems additionally require an RDS/RBDS demodulator with a 57 kHz band-pass filter, information about the current reception situation (reception quality, multi-path disturbance etc.), and additional microcontroller power for RDS/RBDS data processing, decoding and radio control.
The new RDS/RBDS pre-processor includes all these specific functions and meets all requirements of a high end RDS/RBDS radio. Moreover the timing requirements of the set controller, regarding RDS/RBDS data processing are reduced due to the integration of decoder functions, so that the development of radio control software can be concentrated specifically on radio set features.
