Important Notes:
1. When selecting 2-wire mode, the user must ensure that a 2-wire start condition (falling edge of SDIO while SCLK is
high) does not occur within 300 ns before the rising edge of RST.
2. When selecting 2-wire mode, the user must ensure that SCLK is high during the rising edge of RST, and stays high until
after the first start condition.
3. When selecting 3-wire or SPI modes, the user must ensure that a rising edge of SCLK does not occur within 300 ns
before the rising edge of RST.
4. If GPO1 and GPO2 are actively driven by the user, then minimum tSRST is only 30 ns. If GPO1 or GPO2 is hi-Z, then
minimum tSRST is 100 µs, to provide time for on-chip 1 M devices (active while RST is low) to pull GPO1 high and
GPO2 low.

Notes:
1. When VIO = 0 V, SCLK and SDIO are low impedance.
2. When selecting 2-wire mode, the user must ensure that a 2-wire start condition (falling edge of SDIO while SCLK is
high) does not occur within 300 ns before the rising edge of RST.
3. When selecting 2-wire mode, the user must ensure that SCLK is high during the rising edge of RST, and stays high
until after the first start condition.
4. The Si4730/31 delays SDIO by a minimum of 300 ns from the VIH threshold of SCLK to comply with the minimum
tHD:DAT specification.
5. The maximum tHD:DAT has only to be met when fSCL = 400 kHz. At frequencies below 400 KHz, tHD:DAT may be
violated as long as all other timing parameters are met.

Figure 9. Functional Block Diagram
The Si4730/31 is the industry's first fully integrated,
100% CMOS AM/FM radio receiver IC. Offering
unmatched integration and PCB space savings, the
Si4730/31 requires only two external components and
less than 15 mm2 of board area, excluding the antenna
inputs. The Si4730/31 AM/FM radio provides the space
savings and low power consumption necessary for
portable devices while delivering the high performance
and design simplicity desired for all AM/FM solutions.
Leveraging Silicon Laboratories' proven and patented
Si4700/01 FM tuner's digital low intermediate frequency
(low-IF) receiver architecture, the Si4730/31 delivers
superior RF performance and interference rejection in
both AM and FM bands. The high integration and
complete system production test simplifies design-in,
increases
system
quality,
and
improves
manufacturability.
The Si4730/31 is a feature-rich solution that includes
advanced seek algorithms, soft mute, auto-calibrated
digital tuning, and FM stereo processing. In addition, the
Si4730/31 provides analog and digital audio outputs
and a programmable reference clock. The device
supports I2C-compatible 2-wire control interface, SPI,
and a Si4700/01 backwards-compatible 3-wire control
interface.
20
The Si4730/31 utilizes digital processing to achieve high
fidelity, optimal performance, and design flexibility. The
chip provides excellent pilot rejection, selectivity, and
unmatched audio performance, and offers both the
manufacturer
and
the
end-user
extensive
programmability and flexibility in the listening
experience.
The Si4731 incorporates a digital processor for the
European Radio Data System (RDS) and the North
American Radio Broadcast Data System (RBDS)
including all required symbol decoding, block
synchronization, error detection, and error correction
functions. Using this feature, the Si4731 enables
broadcast data such as station identification and song
name to be displayed to the user.
5.2. Operating Modes
The Si4730/31 operates in either an FM receive or an
AM receive mode. In FM mode, radio signals are
received on FMI and processed by the FM front-end
circuitry. In AM mode, radio signals are received on AMI
and processed by the AM front-end circuitry. In addition
to the receiver mode, there is a clocking mode to
choose to clock the Si4730/31 from a reference clock or
crystal. On the Si4731, there is an audio output mode to
choose between an analog and/or digital audio output.
Rev. 1.0
Si4730/31-C40
In the analog audio output mode, ROUT and LOUT are
used for the audio output pins. In the digital audio mode,
DOUT, DFS, and DCLK pins are used. Concurrent
analog/digital audio output mode is also available
requiring all five pins. The receiver mode and the audio
output mode are set by the POWER_UP command
listed in Table 14, “Selected Si473x Commands,” on
page 26.
5.3. FM Receiver
The Si4730/31 FM receiver is based on the proven
Si4700/01 FM tuner. The receiver uses a digital low-IF
architecture allowing the elimination of external
components and factory adjustments. The Si4730/31
integrates a low noise amplifier (LNA) supporting the
worldwide FM broadcast band (64 to 108 MHz). An
AGC circuit controls the gain of the LNA to optimize
sensitivity and rejection of strong interferers. An imagereject mixer downconverts the RF signal to low-IF. The
quadrature mixer output is amplified, filtered, and
digitized with high resolution analog-to-digital
converters (ADCs). This advanced architecture allows
the Si4730/31 to perform channel selection, FM
demodulation, and stereo audio processing to achieve
superior performance compared to traditional analog
architectures.
5.4. AM Receiver
The highly-integrated Si4730/31 supports worldwide AM
band reception from 520 to 1710 kHz using a digital
low-IF architecture with a minimum number of external
components and no manual alignment required. This
digital low-IF architecture allows for high-precision
filtering offering excellent selectivity and SNR with
minimum variation across the AM band. The DSP also
provides adjustable channel step sizes in 1 kHz
increments, AM demodulation, soft mute, seven
different channel bandwidth filters, and additional
features, such as a programmable automatic volume
control (AVC) maximum gain allowing users to adjust
the level of background noise. Similar to the FM
receiver, the integrated LNA and AGC optimize
sensitivity and rejection of strong interferers allowing
better reception of weak stations.
5.5. Digital Audio Interface (Si4731 Only)
The digital audio interface operates in slave mode and
supports three different audio data formats:
I2S
Left-Justified
DSP Mode
5.5.1. Audio Data Formats
In I2S mode, by default the MSB is captured on the
second rising edge of DCLK following each DFS
transition. The remaining bits of the word are sent in
order, down to the LSB. The left channel is transferred
first when the DFS is low, and the right channel is
transferred when the DFS is high.
In Left-Justified mode, by default the MSB is captured
on the first rising edge of DCLK following each DFS
transition. The remaining bits of the word are sent in
order, down to the LSB. The left channel is transferred
first when the DFS is high, and the right channel is
transferred when the DFS is low.
In DSP mode, the DFS becomes a pulse with a width of
1DCLK period. The left channel is transferred first,
followed right away by the right channel. There are two
options in transferring the digital audio data in DSP
mode: the MSB of the left channel can be transferred on
the first rising edge of DCLK following the DFS pulse or
on the second rising edge.
In all audio formats, depending on the word size, DCLK
frequency and sample rates, there may be unused
DCLK cycles after the LSB of each word before the next
DFS transition and MSB of the next word. In addition, if
preferred, the user can configure the MSB to be
captured on the falling edge of DCLK via properties.
The number of audio bits can be configured for 8, 16,
20, or 24 bits.
5.5.2. Audio Sample Rates
The device supports a number of industry-standard
sampling rates including 32, 40, 44.1, and 48 kHz. The
digital audio interface enables low-power operation by
eliminating the need for redundant DACs on the audio
baseband processor.
The Si4730/31 provides highly-accurate digital AM
tuning without factory adjustments. To offer maximum
flexibility, the receiver supports a wide range of ferrite
loop sticks from 180–450 µH. An air loop antenna is
supported by using a transformer to increase the
effective inductance from the air loop. Using a 1:5 turn
ratio inductor, the inductance is increased by 25 times
and easily supports all typical AM air loop antennas
which generally vary between 10 and 20 µH.

The output of the FM demodulator is a stereo
multiplexed (MPX) signal. The MPX standard was
developed in 1961, and is used worldwide. Today's
MPX signal format consists of left + right (L+R) audio,
left – right (L–R) audio, a 19 kHz pilot tone, and
RDS/RBDS data as shown in Figure 13 below.

decoder
automatically decodes the MPX signal using DSP
techniques. The 0 to 15 kHz (L+R) signal is the mono
output of the FM tuner. Stereo is generated from the
(L+R), (L–R), and a 19 kHz pilot tone. The pilot tone is
used as a reference to recover the (L–R) signal. Output
left and right channels are obtained by adding and
subtracting the (L+R) and (L–R) signals respectively.
The Si4731 uses frequency information from the 19 kHz
stereo pilot to recover the 57 kHz RDS/RBDS signal.

Adaptive noise suppression is employed to gradually
combine the stereo left and right audio channels to a
mono (L+R) audio signal as the signal quality degrades
to maintain optimum sound fidelity under varying
reception conditions. Stereo/mono status can be

5.7. De-emphasis
5.12. Seek
Pre-emphasis and de-emphasis is a technique used by
FM broadcasters to improve the signal-to-noise ratio of
FM receivers by reducing the effects of high-frequency
interference and noise. When the FM signal is
transmitted, a pre-emphasis filter is applied to
accentuate the high audio frequencies. The Si4730/31
incorporates a de-emphasis filter which attenuates high
frequencies to restore a flat frequency response. Two
time constants are used in various regions. The deemphasis time constant is programmable to 50 or 75 µs
and is set by the FM_DEEMPHASIS property.
Seek tuning will search up or down for a valid channel.
Valid channels are found when the receive signal
strength indicator (RSSI) and the signal-to-noise ratio
(SNR) values exceed the set threshold. Using the SNR
qualifier rather than solely relying on the more
traditional RSSI qualifier can reduce false stops and
increase the number of valid stations detected. Seek is
initiated
using
the
FM_SEEK_START
and
AM_SEEK_START commands. The RSSI and SNR
threshold settings are adjustable using properties (see
Table 15).
5.8. Stereo DAC
5.13. Reference Clock
High-fidelity stereo digital-to-analog converters (DACs)
drive analog audio signals onto the LOUT and ROUT
pins. The audio output may be muted. Volume is
adjusted digitally with the RX_VOLUME property.
The Si4730/31 reference clock is programmable,
supporting RCLK frequencies in Table 12. Refer to
Table 3, “DC Characteristics,” on page 5 for switching
voltage
levels
and
Table 9,
“FM
Receiver
Characteristics,” on page 12 for frequency tolerance
information.
An onboard crystal oscillator is available to generate the
32.768 kHz reference when an external crystal and load
capacitors are provided. Refer to "2. Typical Application
Schematic (QFN)" on page 17. This mode is enabled
using the POWER_UP command. Refer to Table 14,
“Selected Si473x Commands,” on page 26.
The Si4730/31 performance may be affected by data
activity on the SDIO bus when using the integrated
internal oscillator. SDIO activity results from polling the
tuner for status or communicating with other devices
that share the SDIO bus. If there is SDIO bus activity
while the Si4730/31 is performing the seek/tune
function, the crystal oscillator may experience jitter,
which may result in mistunes, false stops, and/or lower
SNR.
5.9. Soft Mute
The soft mute feature is available to attenuate the audio
outputs and minimize audible noise in very weak signal
conditions. The softmute attenuation level is adjustable
using the FM_SOFT_MUTE_MAX_ATTENUATION and
AM_SOFT_MUTE_MAX_ATTENUATION properties.
5.10. RDS/RBDS Processor (Si4731 Only)
The Si4731 implements an RDS/RBDS* processor for
symbol decoding, block synchronization, error
detection, and error correction.
The Si4731 device is user configurable and provides an
optional interrupt when RDS is synchronized, loses
synchronization, and/or the user configurable RDS
FIFO threshold has been met.
The Si4731 reports RDS decoder synchronization
status and detailed bit errors in the information word for
each RDS block with the FM_RDS_STATUS command.
The range of reportable block errors is 0, 1–2, 3–5, or
6+. More than six errors indicates that the
corresponding block information word contains six or
more non-correctable errors or that the block checkword
contains errors.
*Note: RDS/RBDS is referred to only as RDS throughout the
remainder of this document.
For best seek/tune results, Silicon Laboratories
recommends that all SDIO data traffic be suspended
during Si4730/31 seek and tune operations. This is
achieved by keeping the bus quiet for all other devices
on the bus, and delaying tuner polling until the tune or
seek operation is complete. The seek/tune complete
(STC) interrupt should be used instead of polling to
determine when a seek/tune operation is complete.
5.14. Control Interface
5.11. Tuning
The tuning frequency is directly programmed using the
FM_TUNE_FREQ and AM_TUNE_FREQ commands.
The Si4730/31 supports channel spacing steps of
10 kHz in FM mode and 1 kHz in AM mode.
A serial port slave interface is provided, which allows an
external controller to send commands to the Si4730/31
and receive responses from the device. The serial port
can operate in three bus modes: 2-wire mode, 3-wire
mode, or SPI mode. The Si4730/31 selects the bus
mode by sampling the state of the GPO1 and GPO2
pins on the rising edge of RST. The GPO1 pin includes
an internal pull-up resistor, which is connected while
Rev. 1.0
23
Si4730/31-C40
RST is low, and the GPO2 pin includes an internal pulldown resistor, which is connected while RST is low.
Therefore, it is only necessary for the user to actively
drive pins which differ from these states. See Table 13.

RST
Bus Mode
2-Wire
SPI
3-Wire
GPO1

GPO2

0
After the rising edge of RST, the pins GPO1 and GPO2
are used as general purpose output (O) pins, as
described in Section “5.15. GPO Outputs”. In any bus
mode, commands may only be sent after VIO and VDD
supplies are applied.
In any bus mode, before sending a command or reading
a response, the user must first read the status byte to
ensure that the device is ready (CTS bit is high).
5.14.1. 2-Wire Control Interface Mode
When selecting 2-wire mode, the user must ensure that
SCLK is high during the rising edge of RST, and stays
high until after the first start condition. Also, a start
condition must not occur within 300 ns before the rising
edge of RST.
The 2-wire bus mode uses only the SCLK and SDIO
pins for signaling. A transaction begins with the START
condition, which occurs when SDIO falls while SCLK is
high. Next, the user drives an 8-bit control word serially
on SDIO, which is captured by the device on rising
edges of SCLK. The control word consists of a 7-bit
device address, followed by a read/write bit (read = 1,
write = 0). The Si4730/31 acknowledges the control
word by driving SDIO low on the next falling edge of
SCLK.
Although the Si4730/31 will respond to only a single
device address, this address can be changed with the
SEN pin (note that the SEN pin is not used for signaling
in 2-wire mode). When SEN = 0, the 7-bit device
address is 0010001b. When SEN = 1, the address is
1100011b.
For write operations, the user then sends an 8-bit data
byte on SDIO, which is captured by the device on rising
edges of SCLK. The Si4730/31 acknowledges each
data byte by driving SDIO low for one cycle, on the next
falling edge of SCLK. The user may write up to 8 data
bytes in a single 2-wire transaction. The first byte is a
command, and the next seven bytes are arguments.
24
For read operations, after the Si4730/31 has
acknowledged the control byte, it will drive an 8-bit data
byte on SDIO, changing the state of SDIO on the falling
edge of SCLK. The user acknowledges each data byte
by driving SDIO low for one cycle, on the next falling
edge of SCLK. If a data byte is not acknowledged, the
transaction will end. The user may read up to 16 data
bytes in a single 2-wire transaction. These bytes contain
the response data from the Si4730/31.
A 2-wire transaction ends with the STOP condition,
which occurs when SDIO rises while SCLK is high.
For details on timing specifications and diagrams, refer
to Table 5, “2-Wire Control Interface Characteristics” on
page 7; Figure 2, “2-Wire Control Interface Read and
Write Timing Parameters,” on page 8, and Figure 3, “2Wire Control Interface Read and Write Timing Diagram,”
on page 8.
5.14.2. 3-Wire Control Interface Mode
When selecting 3-wire mode, the user must ensure that
a rising edge of SCLK does not occur within 300 ns
before the rising edge of RST.
The 3-wire bus mode uses the SCLK, SDIO, and SEN_
pins. A transaction begins when the user drives SEN
low. Next, the user drives a 9-bit control word on SDIO,
which is captured by the device on rising edges of
SCLK. The control word consists of a 9-bit device
address (A7:A5 = 101b), a read/write bit (read = 1, write
= 0), and a 5-bit register address (A4:A0).
For write operations, the control word is followed by a
16-bit data word, which is captured by the device on
rising edges of SCLK.
For read operations, the control word is followed by a
delay of one-half SCLK cycle for bus turn-around. Next,
the Si4730/31 will drive the 16-bit read data word
serially on SDIO, changing the state of SDIO on each
rising edge of SCLK.
A transaction ends when the user sets SEN high, then
pulses SCLK high and low one final time. SCLK may
either stop or continue to toggle while SEN is high.
In 3-wire mode, commands are sent by first writing each
argument to register(s) 0xA1–0xA3, then writing the
command word to register 0xA0. A response is
retrieved by reading registers 0xA8–0xAF.
For details on timing specifications and diagrams, refer
to Table 6, “3-Wire Control Interface Characteristics,” on
page 9; Figure 4, “3-Wire Control Interface Write Timing
Parameters,” on page 9, and Figure 5, “3-Wire Control
Interface Read Timing Parameters,” on page 9.

5.14.3. SPI Control Interface Mode
5.16. Firmware Upgrades
When selecting SPI mode, the user must ensure that a
rising edge of SCLK does not occur within 300 ns
before the rising edge of RST.
The Si4730/31 contains on-chip program RAM to
accommodate minor changes to the firmware. This
allows Silicon Labs to provide future firmware updates
to optimize the characteristics of new radio designs and
those already deployed in the field.
SPI bus mode uses the SCLK, SDIO, and SEN pins for
read/write operations. The system controller can
choose to receive read data from the device on either
SDIO or GPO1. A transaction begins when the system
controller drives SEN = 0. The system controller then
pulses SCLK eight times, while driving an 8-bit control
byte serially on SDIO. The device captures the data on
rising edges of SCLK. The control byte must have one
of five values:
0x48 = write a command (controller drives 8
additional bytes on SDIO).
0x80 = read a response (device drives 1additional
byte on SDIO).
0xC0 = read a response (device drives 16 additional
bytes on SDIO).
0xA0 = read a response (device drives 1 additional
byte on GPO1).
0xE0 = read a response (device drives 16 additional
bytes on GPO1).
For write operations, the system controller must drive
exactly 8 data bytes (a command and seven arguments)
on SDIO after the control byte. The data is captured by
the device on the rising edge of SCLK.
For read operations, the controller must read exactly 1
byte (STATUS) after the control byte or exactly 16 data
bytes (STATUS and RESP1–RESP15) after the control
byte. The device changes the state of SDIO (or GPO1, if
specified) on the falling edge of SCLK. Data must be
captured by the system controller on the rising edge of
SCLK.
Keep SEN low until all bytes have transferred. A
transaction may be aborted at any time by setting SEN
high and toggling SCLK high and then low. Commands
will be ignored by the device if the transaction is
aborted.
For details on timing specifications and diagrams, refer
to Figure 6 and Figure 7 on page 10.
5.15. GPO Outputs
The Si4730/31 provides three general-purpose output
pins. The GPO pins can be configured to output a
constant low, constant high, or high-impedance. The
GPO pins can be reconfigured as specialized functions.
GPO2/INT can be configured to provide interrupts and
GPO3 can be configured to provide external crystal
support or as DCLK in digital audio output mode.
5.17. Reset, Powerup, and Powerdown
Setting the RST pin low will disable analog and digital
circuitry, reset the registers to their default settings, and
disable the bus. Setting the RST pin high will bring the
device out of reset.
A powerdown mode is available to reduce power
consumption when the part is idle. Putting the device in
powerdown mode will disable analog and digital circuitry
while keeping the bus active.
5.18. Programming with Commands
To ease development time and offer maximum
customization, the Si4730/31 provides a simple yet
powerful software interface to program the receiver. The
device is programmed using commands, arguments,
properties, and responses.
To perform an action, the user writes a command byte
and associated arguments, causing the chip to execute
the given command. Commands control an action such
as powerup the device, shut down the device, or tune to
a station. Arguments are specific to a given command
and are used to modify the command. A partial list of
commands is available in Table 14, “Selected Si473x
Commands,” on page 26.
Properties are a special command argument used to
modify the default chip operation and are generally
configured immediately after powerup. Examples of
properties are de-emphasis level, RSSI seek threshold,
and soft mute attenuation threshold. A partial list of
properties is available in Table 15, “Selected Si473x
Properties,” on page 27.
Responses provide the user information and are
echoed after a command and associated arguments are
issued. All commands provide a 1-byte status update,
indicating interrupt and clear-to-send status information.
For a detailed description of the commands and
properties for the Si4730/31, see “AN332: Si47xx
Programming Guide.”

Notes: General
1. All dimensions shown are in millimeters (mm) unless otherwise noted.
2. Dimensioning and Tolerancing is per the ANSI Y14.5M-1994 specification.
3. This Land Pattern Design is based on IPC-SM-782 guidelines.
4. All dimensions shown are at Maximum Material Condition (MMC). Least Material
Condition (LMC) is calculated based on a Fabrication Allowance of 0.05 mm.
Notes: Solder Mask Design
1. All metal pads are to be non-solder mask defined (NSMD). Clearance between the
solder mask and the metal pad is to be 60 µm minimum, all the way around the pad.
Notes: Stencil Design
1. A stainless steel, laser-cut, and electro-polished stencil with trapezoidal walls should
be used to assure good solder paste release.
2. The stencil thickness should be 0.125mm (5 mils).
3. The ratio of stencil aperture to land pad size should be 1:1 for the perimeter pads.
4. A 1.45 x 1.45 mm square aperture should be used for the center pad. This provides
approximately 70% solder paste coverage on the pad, which is optimum to assure
correct component stand-off.
Notes: Card Assembly
1. A No-Clean, Type-3 solder paste is recommended.
2. The recommended card reflow profile is per the JEDEC/IPC J-STD-020 specification
for Small Body Components.
