Overview
The LA1185 is an FM receiver front-end IC for radio-cassette recorder, music center applications. Its mixer is of double-balanced type. The built-in oscillator and buffer amplifier improves the strong input characteristic.

Functions and Features
• RF amplifier, mixer, local oscillator
• Improvement in cross modulation characteristics due to the
   use of double-balanced mixer.
• Improvement in strong input characteristic.
• Minimum number of external parts required.
• Less spurious radiation from local oscillator.
• Operating voltage range : 1.5 to 8.0 V

Use
• FM front-end IC for radio-cassette recorders and music
