Description
The TSH512 is a 0.4- to 11-MHz dual FM transmitter. Access pins to each section give high versatility and allow for several different applications: stereo headphone, multimedia headset, audio sub-carrier generator. The TSH512 integrates in a single chip low-noise audio preamplifiers with ALC (automatic level control), frequency-modulated oscillators, and linear output buffers to drive the external transistors. The sinusoidal carriers facilitate the filtering and allow high performance audio transmission. The VOX (voice operated transmit) circuitry disables the output buffer when there is no audio signal to save battery power. For MONO applications, the STANDBY pin enables one transmitter only, reducing the supply current.

General description
The TSH512 is a 0.4- to 11-MHz dual FM analog transmitter. This circuit offers the functions needed for an advanced infrared STEREO transmitter. The access pins for each section allow high versatility and therefore a lot of applications: mono infrared transmitter, stereo transmitter, mono/stereo sub-carrier generator for video transmissions (for example the popular 2.4 GHz video links). The block diagram for the TSH512 is shown in Figure 1 on page 4. Each audio input is amplified with a low noise amplifier (LNA section) allowing connection to line level sources or directly to a microphone. Built-in MIC BIAS voltage references provide bias for electret condenser microphones (ECM) with a high power supply rejection ratio. Each audio path also includes an automatic level control (ALC) to limit the overmodulation and the distortion on very high signal amplitudes. The following operational amplifier (PEA) allows a pre-emphasis transfer function before modulating the varicap diode. Built-in voltage references (VCO-BIAS) offer a regulated voltage to bias the varicap diodes. The voltage controlled oscillator (VCO) is an integrated oscillator giving typically 600 mV peak-to-peak at 2.8 MHz. The output buffer section linearly amplifies the FM carrier to provide a sinusoidal output. This sinusoidal signal reduces the inter-modulation products between the carriers, especially in two-way or in multi-carrier systems (see Section 4: Application information on page 14). The voice operated transmit function (VOX) automatically detects when an audio signal appears over the background noise. The standby of the second transmitter reduces consumption in mono operation.
5.1
LNA section: low noise amplifier
For each transmitter, the audio source is connected to the LNA. The LNA stage is a low noise operational amplifier typically usable with a gain from 0 to 40 dB.
18/31
Doc ID 8120 Rev 7
TSH512 Figure 26. LNA schematics
General description
The LNA gain is given by: GLNA (dB) = 20.Log(1+RLNA2/RLNA1) The high-pass cut-off frequency is: fHPF = 1/(2.π.RLNA1.CLNA1) The lowpass filter cut-off frequency is: fLPF = 1/(2.π. RLNA2.CLNA2) If you connect an external circuit to the LNA output, the impedance of this external circuit should be higher than 10 mΩ and the capacitance lower than 50 pF in order to keep a good stability. Note: The capacitor C must be connected directly to input pin 12.
5.2
Electret condenser microphone source
When an electret condenser microphone (ECM) is used, a high gain LNA is recommended, but low frequencies have to be attenuated. The ECM must be biased with a stable and clean reference voltage. The TSH512 provides the LNA and the MIC-BIAS sections to perform this function (see Section 5.3. MIC-BIAS section: microphone bias voltage).
Doc ID 8120 Rev 7
19/31
General description Figure 27. Electret condenser microphone source
TSH512
The capacitor C in series with the microphone stops the DC coming from MIC-BIAS. The resistor R provides the DC from MIC-BIAS to supply the ECM. Thanks to the automatic level control (ALC), the great variations of amplitude will not overmodulate the transmitter (refer to the Section 5.4: ALC section: automatic level control). The self-adaptive VOX (voice operated transmit) offers automatic transmitting with a good discrimination of the background noise (see Section 5.5: VOX description: voice operated transmit on page 21).
5.3
MIC-BIAS section: microphone bias voltage
The MIC-BIAS bias voltages are dedicated to the bias of electret condenser microphones. These bias voltages on pin 10 for TX1 and pin 2 for TX2 exhibit a low voltage noise density of 22 nV/√ ). This allows more than 55 dB S/N considering a bandwidth of 7 kHz Hz (Figure 27). The MIC-BIAS voltage is related to VCC as follows (with I MIC-BIAS= 2.5 mA): VMIC-BIAS = 0.844.Vcc-0.140 (volts) Moreover, the supply rejection ratio is guaranteed to be better than 50 dB without any decoupling capacitor. To address biasing of most of the microphones, the current drive capability is 2.5 mA. The MIC-BIAS voltage depends linearly on the supply voltage VCC (refer to Figure 11 on page 11).

TSH512
General description
5.4
ALC section: automatic level control
Both transmitters of the TSH512 include an automatic level control (ALC). When the level of the audio signal is too high, the ALC compresses the signal in order to avoid overmodulation of the FM VCO. In this way, the ALC reduces the distortion and maintains a reduced transmit spectrum with very high amplitude signals. Figure 28. Automatic level control schematics
The ALC features a 20 dB gain and an output signal regulated to 700 mVpp in compression. The attack time is the response time of the ALC to go from the linear amplification to the compression region. The attack time mainly depends on the capacitor value of CALC. A typical value of CALC is 1 µF with music as the audio signal (refer to Figure 22 on page 15). The decay time is the response time the ALC requires to recover to full gain amplifying mode after being in compression mode. The decay time depends mainly on the RALC resistor value. A typical value of RALC is 470 kΩ with music as audio signal (Figure 22). ,
5.5
VOX description: voice operated transmit
The voice operated transmit (VOX) section reduces consumption when there is no audio signal to transmit. When the VOX detects that no audio signal is present, it mutes the output buffers of TX1 and TX2 and provides the logic signal VOX-MUTE to switch-off the external LED drivers if needed. The audio signal of TX1 is amplified with a gain dependent on the values of Rsens and Csens. Rsens and Csens are connected to pin 7. The high-pass filtering has the following cut-off frequency:
1 f HPF = ------------------------------------------------2 π ( R sens ⋅ C sens )
Doc ID 8120 Rev 7
21/31
General description Figure 29. VOX delay and sensitivity schematics
TSH512
On pin 6, Rpeak and Cpeak integrate the rectified audio signal with a short time constant. This filtered signal follows the audio amplitude. Figure 30. VOX integrator and monostable schematics
The self-adaptive VOX threshold is necessary because the ambient background noise variation is slow compared to the voice or the music. On pin 28, RCOMP and CCOMP integrate the amplitude to follow the background amplitude. Therefore, the comparator switches when an audio signal appears over the background noise. Referring to Figure 2, CCOMP will be typically a 100 nF capacitor and RCOMP will be determined depending on the audio signal. As soon as an audio signal is detected, the output of the monostable switches to "high" state and enables both output buffers. The monostable output is pin 27 and is called VOX-MUTE.

General description The monostable holds the TSH512 in transmit mode during a delay fixed by the value of CTRIG connected to pin 29.
1.4V VOX DELAY = ⎛ ----------- ⎞ ⋅ C trig ⎝ 5 μA ⎠
Note that the VOX function is activated when the audio signal enters the first transmitter TX1. When the application needs a permanent transmission, it is possible to inhibit the VOX function, by removing the Ctrig capacitor and connecting pin 29 to ground. As soon as the TSH512 is powered-on, the internal reset circuitry sets the VOX-MUTE to high state to enable transmission. The transmission remains during the monostable timing and continues if an audio signal triggers the monostable. Figure 31. VOX state at power-on

PEA section: pre-emphasis
The amplitude-regulated audio coming from the ALC feeds the positive input of the operational amplifier called PEA (pre-emphasis). The pre-emphasis consists in a high-pass filter in order to compensate the behavior of the FM transmission. Figure 32. Pre-emphasis schematics
RPEA1 and CPEA1 set the time constant of the pre-emphasis as: τ = RPEA1. CPEA1 50 µs or 75 µs time constants are generally used. Choosing the gain of the PEA stage also allows one to set the right modulation level to the varicap diode. The gain in the passband is: GPEA = 1+ (RPEA2/RPEA1)

General description
5.7
VCO section: voltage-controlled oscillator
Each TSH512 transmitter has its own oscillator to generate the carrier. The audio signal is applied to the varicap diode to perform the frequency modulation. Thanks to the VCO-BIAS voltage reference, the DC bias of the varicap is stabilized. The high power supply rejection ratio (PSRR) of the VCO-BIAS ensures good immunity with the noise of the power supply. Figure 33. VCO schematics
The generated frequency can be set from 400 kHz to 11 MHz by external components. Refer to Table 1 for the usual frequencies in infrared audio. The working frequency is:
1 f VCO = -------------------------------2 π ( L ⋅ Ct )
where Ct is the total capacity of CL, Cp, Cs and Cv: Ct = 1/(1/Cc+1/CL) with Cc = Cp+1/(1/Cv+1/Cs) It is possible to use varicap diodes SMV1212 (Alpha Ind.) or ZC833 (Zetex). Table 5. Usual infrared frequencies
IR frequency in MHz 1.6 1.7 2.3 2.8 Applications AM mono FM mono FM right channel FM left channel or mono
The output level of the VCO can be reduced by adding the resistor RVCO between pin 19 and pin 20 or between pin 36 and pin 37 for TX1 and TX2 respectively.

5.8
Output buffer section
The output buffers can deliver a sinusoidal signal with a 1.5 Vpp amplitude in a 1 kΩ load. This impedance is compatible with popular biasing circuitry of external transistor drivers of IR LEDs. The VOX-MUTE logic signal can be used to control the external LED drivers. When the audio is not present on the TX1 input, VOX-MUTE is in Low state, the TSH512’s internal buffers are muted, and the external drivers can be switched off by controlling their bias.
5.9
SBY pin: standby for mono operation
A high state on the Standby pin (SBY) sets the second transmitter TX2 to power-down. The SBY pin is typically used when the TSH512 is used as a mono transmitter (that is, infrared microphone transmitter).
