Notes:
1. The Si473x divides the RCLK input by REFCLK_PRESCALE to obtain REFCLK. There are some RCLK frequencies
between 31.130 kHz and 40 MHz that are not supported. See “AN332: Si47xx Programming Guide,” Table 6 for more
details.
2. A frequency tolerance of ±50 ppm is required for FM seek/tune using 50 kHz channel spacing, SW seek/tune, and WB
tune.

3. Typical AM/FM Application Schematic
Notes:
1. Place C1 close to V
DD
pin.
2. All grounds connect directly to GND plane on PCB.
3. Pins 1 and 20 are no connects, leave floating.
4. To ensure proper operation and receiver performance, follow the guidelines in “AN383: Si47xx Antenna, Schematic,
Layout and Design Guidelines.” Silicon Laboratories will evaluate schematics and layouts for qualified customers.
5. Pin 2 connects to the FM antenna interface and pin 4 connects to the AM antenna interface.
6. RFGND should be locally isolated from GND.
7. Place Si473x as close as possible to antenna jack and keep the FMI and AMI traces as short as possible.
