ALPS Offers Compact TV Tuners for Digital Terrestrial and Analog Broadcast

As input frequency range the tuners cover the European and Chinese UHF/VHF band from 366 to 862MHz and 47 to 366MHz as well as the North American UHF/VHF band from 378 to 864MHz and 54 to 378MHz. All models are remarkable for their input return loss of typical 10dB, image rejection of typical 60dB and their phase noise of typical –90dB/Hz at 10kHz offset. The noise figure amounts to 7dB typical. The modules feature an IF band with 7MHz/8MHz (TDAG), 6MHz (TDAU) and 8MHz (TDAC). Their output center frequencies amount to 36.1666MHz (TDAG), 44.0MHz (TDAU) and 36.0MHz (TDAC). They are controlled via I2C bus. The modules are rated for supply voltages of 5V.

The tuners are available for vertical PCB assembly in two versions with an antenna connection from the side or from above. They comply with the RoHS (Restriction on Hazardous Substances) directive and are available in minimum packing units of 360 pieces.
