( 1 Mar 2008 )
NXP Semiconductors has launched a multi-band silicon tuner, the TDA18292, which is the first to support the five global TV standards for portable devicesDVB-T, DVB-H, DVB-SH, T-DMB, ISD B-Tand five prominent frequency bandsVHF, UHF, L1, L2, S band. The ultra-low power, low noise, small footprint and high immunity to other cellular and connectivity standards make the TDA18292 an ideal TV solution for notebooks, USB sticks, portable multimedia players (PMPs), portable DVD players, mobile phones, portable navigation systems (GPS) and other handheld devices.
Other key specifications include: sensitivity, less than 3dB; dynamic automatic gain control (AGC), 70dB range, 0.5dB control step; power rating, 20mW (DVBH), 170mW (DVB-T) and 80mW (T-DMB); voltage rating, 2.7V (analog), 1.8V (digital); and dimensions, 5x5mm.
