TDA8960 Datasheet PDF

NXP Semiconductors TDA8960

The TDA8960 is an ATSC-compliant demodulator and forward error correction decoder for reception of 8-VSB modulated signals for terrestrial and cable applications: • Terrestrial: reception of 8-VSB modulated signals via standard 6 MHz VHF/UHF terrestrial TV channels (TV channels 2 to 69 in the United States) • Cable: reception of 8-VSB modulated signals via standard 6 MHz VHF/UHF cable TV channels. The only required external loop components are a low-speed serial D/A converter and a Voltage Controlled crystal Oscillator (VCXO) for the symbol timing recovery and an opamp integrator for the AGC. However, it is also possible to apply the TDA8960 AGC control output directly to the tuner.
