STV0399 Front-End Single Chip
for Digital Satellite Broadcasting
With over five years experience in satellite broadcasting, it is no surprise that STMicroelectronics has become the first company to offer a complete front-end single chip for digital satellite receivers and set-top boxes. Implemented in an advanced 0.18µm CMOS process, the STV0399 integrates a Zero IF tuner, a multi-standard (QPSK and 8-PSK) demodulator and a Forward Error Correction block in a single chip. Until now, two or more IC’s have been required to implement these functions, at a cost significantly higher than that made possible by the STV0399.
