MAX2106 - DBS Direct Downconverter

General Description

The MAX2106 low-cost, direct-conversion tuner IC is designed for use in digital direct-broadcast satellite (DBS) television set-top box units and is a pin-for-pin upgrade for the MAX2104.

Its direct-conversion architecture reduces system cost compared to devices with IF-based architectures.

19-1627; Rev 2; 6/03 DBS Direct Downconverter General Description The MAX2106 low-cost, direct-conversion tuner IC is designed for use in digital direct-broadcast satellite (DBS) television set-top box units and is a pin-for-pin upgrade for the MAX2104. Its direct-conversion architecture reduces system cost compared to devices with IF-based architectures. The MAX2106 directly tunes Lband signals to baseband using a broadband I/Q downconverter. The operating frequency range spans 925MHz to 2175MHz. The IC includes a low-noise amplifier (LNA) with gain control, I and Q downconverting mixers, lowpass filters with gain and frequency control, a local oscillator (LO) buffer with a 90° quadrature network, and a chargepump-based phase-locked loop (PLL) for frequency control.
