RF + BB SoC for ISDB-T 1-Seg

The FC8150 chip is a highly integrated device for receiving Integrated Services Digital Broadcasting Terrestrial (ISDB-T). FC8150 has all of the performance needed to enable the full range of ISDB-T applications. It consists of two main blocks, an RF tuner and a demodulator.

The RF tuner block is designed for use in Japanese and Brazilian mobile digital TV (ISDB-T single-segment) applications. This part directly converts UHF band signals to a low-IF using a broadband down-converter. It contains LNA, down-conversion mixer, channel selection filter (CSF), and LO distribution network for UHF band.

The demodulator block (OFDM decoder) is part of a receiver for digital terrestrial television broadcast in accordance with the ISDB-T Japanese standard (STD-B31), which has all necessary functions for 1-segment mobile receiving. Designed by our unique synchronization and equalization technologies oriented toward mobile receiving, it gives good performances for high-speed moving applications. It is also suitable for cellular phone usage with its low power consumption and ultra-compact package size.
