Smaller Power Saving Tuner ICs

( 1 Apr 2006 )

Infineon Technologies’ high performance, low power tuner ICs TUA6041 and TUA6045 are specifically designed for portable applications such as laptops, USB dongles and PDAs. Both ICs are single conversion tuners that operate at a 3V supply voltage, halving their power consumption and heat dissipation. To meet the increasing space constraints of portable end-user devices, the TUA6041 and TUA6045 integrate the RF (radio frequency) and IF (intermediate frequency) functions in one chip improving system reliability and decreasing the footprint area of the tuner IC by around 50% to 49 mm² Infineon
