    Si4827-DEMO 4. Operation The S4827-DEMO Board, a complete analog tune and digital display radio, provides two major modes of operation: Time mode and FM/AM/SW Radio mode. 4.1. Time Mode Put two AAA batteries into the battery compartment; the board will automatically enter Time Mode and display the time.
  • Page 9 Si4827-DEMO 4.2. FM/AM/SW Radio Mode In Time Mode, when a long press (hold time > 1s) on the POWER/BAND button or when the alarm time is reached, the device will enter FM/AM/SW Mode. The LCD displays the following information: band indicator, band frequency indicator, and sleep indicator in case radio is automatically turned on by the alarm.
  • Page 10 Si4827-DEMO 4.2.1. MCU Setting Band Property The DEMO board enables the band property to be set by the MCU. The band property includes:  Band top  Band bottom  De-emphasis (only for FM)  Channel Space (only for AM) The setting menu is illustrated in Figure 4.
