NXP Semiconductors TDA8961
The TDA8961 is an Advanced Television Systems Committee (ATSC)-compliant demodulator and FEC 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). The output signal from the tuner is filtered and fed to the TDA8980 which performs the following functions: • Decodes the analog NTSC signals: The audio signals are digitized, using on-chip audio stereo A/D converters, into an I2S-bus stream; the video information is digitized, using on-chip video A/D converters, into an ITU656 stream. An application using the TDA8961 and the TDA8980 NTSC/ATSC TV input processor for TV and Multi-Media is shown in Fig.1.
