Product Details

MC44BS374T1AEFR2 - PLL-Tuned Audio/Video RF Modulator

The MC44BS374T1A family integrates a programmable RF oscillator, PLL, sound subcarrier and audio/video modulation for legacy television-output equipment. This customer record identifies the AEF variant with an R2 ordering suffix in a 16-pin SOIC package.

Manufacturer family data and a later NXP legacy-part cross-reference support the base device; verify the complete ordering suffix against device markings and original purchasing documentation.

Overview

The MC44BS374T1A accepts baseband video and audio and produces a modulated RF television output. Its integrated VCO and programmable RF PLL set the output channel through a high-speed I2C-compatible interface. A second PLL selects the sound subcarrier. The family supports multiple broadcast-system configurations using the same basic external circuit.

The manufacturer's 2003 document is advance information for the MC44BS374T1/374T1A family. Confirm configuration bytes and regulatory suitability in the original equipment design.

Key Advantages

Integrated RF tuning

On-chip UHF oscillator and PLL reduce external tuned components.

Programmable sound

Selectable 4.5, 5.5, 6.0 and 6.5 MHz sound subcarriers.

Digital control

I2C-compatible interface programs channel and modulation functions.

Built-in test functions

Video test pattern and 1 kHz audio test signal aid system checks.

Feature Summary

  • PAL/NTSC audio/video RF modulator with integrated VCO.
  • UHF channel 21-69 operation; VHF output is possible through internal dividers.
  • High-speed I2C-compatible control, specified up to 800 kHz.
  • Programmable picture-to-sound carrier ratio and test-pattern functions.
  • Logic output port at pin 3 and programmable standby mode.
  • Transient RF output inhibit during PLL acquisition at power-on.

Package & Footprint

The database lists 16-SOIC (0.154", 3.90mm Width); the package registry normalizes this to 16-SOIC and names /upload/package/16-SOIC.jpg. The original manufacturer family sheet calls the package SO16NB. Compare the complete SO16NB dimensions and pin-1 orientation with the board footprint before substitution.

Layout checks
  • Verify body width and lead pitch against SO16NB drawing.
  • Place supply decoupling close to the relevant ground pins.
  • Locate the RF PLL loop-filter components close to VCCD as directed in the manufacturer application diagram.

The local package JPG is absent and the production image URL returns HTTP 404; this detail must remain unpublished.

Pin Functions

The following assignments are from the original MC44BS374T1/374T1A SO16 pin table.

Audio input and sound-PLL loop filter.

9 VIDEO / 10 VCCA

Video input and main analog supply.

11 GND / 12 TVOUT

Analog ground and RF television output.

13 TVOVCC / 14 PLLFLT

Output-stage supply and RF PLL loop filter.

15 VCCD / 16 GNDD

Typical values are not guaranteed limits. The 6 V supply figure in the source is an absolute maximum, not a normal operating setting.

Replacement Considerations

NXP's later MC44CC373/374 document cross-references the MC44BS374T1AEF legacy base code, but its successor devices are not assumed to be pin-compatible. Check the RF output, power rails, I2C register behavior, package drawing and pin mapping before any redesign. No unverified LCDChip substitute link is provided.

Manufacturer Information

The original Motorola/Freescale MC44BS374T1/374T1A advance datasheet (Rev. 1.2, November 2003) describes the family and SO16NB pins. NXP's later MC44CC373/374 datasheet explicitly names legacy MC44BS374T1AEF in its cross-reference. The original family sheet states that R2 is the tape-and-reel suffix, but does not individually list the AEF package code; verify this complete legacy order code against label and traceability records.

Applications

Legacy VCR equipment

Generate television-channel RF output from composite audio/video.

Set-top boxes

Provide modulated RF output for compatible television inputs.

System test

Use the built-in video and audio test functions during integration.

Equipment maintenance

Service existing designs built around this modulator family.

Quality & Authenticity

Verify full part marking, AEF base code, R2 reel labeling, SO16NB outline and lot traceability. An unmarked 16-pin modulator should not be treated as interchangeable merely because its footprint fits.

FAQ

What controls the RF channel?

The I2C-compatible interface programs the integrated RF PLL and oscillator.

Does the A variant differ from the base MC44BS374T1?

Yes. The family sheet lists a higher typical TV output level for the A version: 82 rather than 75 dBµV.

Can a later MC44CC part be installed directly?

Do not assume so. Compare the complete pinout, programming and electrical requirements first.

Engineering Notice

Use the original MC44BS374T1/374T1A datasheet for design limits and pins, and the later NXP cross-reference only to identify the AEF legacy base code. Confirm the full AEF/R2 ordering suffix with supplier traceability. The required production 16-SOIC JPG is missing (HTTP 404), so keep this page in review with isRed=0 until the asset and rendered page are verified.
