TDA827x
Based on a revolutionary concept, the TDA827x silicon tuner
family frees manufacturers from many of the constraints of
traditional RF design. This comprehensive silicon tuner family
for cable modem, digital STB and analog PC-TV reception
offers the necessary selectivity for all targeted applications.
Silicon Tuner Family
Semiconductors
The TDA827x silicon tuner family offers a very simple tuner solution for
cable modem, digital STB and analog PC-TV reception, enabling incredible
simplifications in TV design. Its patented technology and highly innovative
architecture reduces external component count, providing an extremely
cost effective silicon tuner that is easier and quicker to design in than any
other comparable solution in today’s market.
A giant leap forward in RF integration, the TDA827x features an embedded
low noise input amplifier and an image rejection mixer for processing RF
signals and downconverting to low IF signals, which are then filtered before
being sent to the channel decoder or IF demodulator. It offers optimal
partitioning of functions at the system level, removing the need for both
SAW filters or IF amplifiers.
Applications
• DOCSIS and EuroDOCSIS cable modems
• Digital Set Top Boxes
• Analog TV reception on PCs
This family also features a fully integrated VCO that has no external tank
component, an RF splitter with two separate outputs and an RSSI signal
indicator embedded on the IC. All this integration results in very low power
consumption for the TDA827x, removing the need for an external heat sink
and further simplifying design-in efforts.
