Overview
The LA8608V is a narrowband FM-IF system intended for communications equipment, operates at just 1.8 V, and is contained in an ultrasmall package with a 0.65 mm pitch. In addition to the various functions needed for reception, the LA8608V also offers other functions such as noise detection and electric field intensity detection, and is optimum for compact designs, such as for cordless phones.

FEATUREs
.Because this IC has three independent noise detection and amplification amplifiers, it can be used to form a secondary biquad bandpass filter; furthermore, because it is equipped with detector and Schmitt trigger functions, it can be easily used for carrier sense applications.
.Broad signal meter linearity (70 dB typ.)
.Low operating voltage: 1.8 V to 6 V
.Small package: SSOP-24 (0.65 mm pitch)

Functions
.2nd mixer, 2nd local oscillator, IF amplifier, limiter, quadrature detector, signal meter
.Noise detector, noise amplifier, noise detector, Schmitttrigger, comparator
