We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Digital radios",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Electronicstalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release Multistandard receiver adds Sirius Internet radio from
Frontier Silicon, which we summarised at the time by saying "Consumer electronics manufacturers will be able to produce familiar tabletop radios, microsystems and clock radios that also have access to the Sirius commercial-free channels".
Several months prior to that,
we featured the news release Pure design win is RF success from
Future Waves: "Pure Digital has signed to use an RF CMOS device from Future Waves in its digital radio receivers".
In April 2007, we covered the news from Frontier Silicon
concerning its Venice 5 (FS2025) DAB/FM module
- take a look at Building block for radio with iPod docking feature
which says: "A reference design enables audio manufacturers quickly to produce low-cost DAB/FM radios with iPod docking capability".
Take a look also at the news release from RadioScape, Multistandard module puts DRM in the shops,
as well as DAB module runs lower power budget from Frontier Silicon,
and Baseband enables next DAB generation from Frontier Silicon.
