TDA18211HD

General description

The TDA18211HD is a Silicon Tuner IC designed for digital terrestrial (DVB-T) TV reception. The TDA18211HD integrates the overall tuning function, including selectivity, and provides a low-IF output signal. The TDA18211HD uses integrated IF filters to support 6/7/8 MHz channel bandwidths. The TDA18211HD requires only one single 16 MHz crystal for clock generation. A clock signal is available on crystal oscillator output pins (XTOUTP/XTOUTN) to synchronize the channel decoder and slave front end in case of DVR configuration.

Features

■ Fully integrated RF tracking filters for unwanted signal suppression
■ Fully integrated IF selectivity (no need for external SAW filters)
■ Fully integrated oscillators with no external components
■ Integrated wideband gain control
■ Alignment free
■ RF loop-through for easy implementation in the STB
■ Input power level indicator
■ Integrated die thermal sensor
■ Single 3.3 V power supply
■ Low power consumption (780 mW)
■ Crystal oscillator output buffer (16 MHz) to allow single crystal applications
■ I2C-bus interface compatible with 3.3 V and 5 V microcontrollers
■ Three Standby modes
■ RoHS packaging
