GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The TDA10045H is a single-chip channel receiver for
2 and 8 kbytes COFDM modulated signals based on the
ETSI specification (ETSI 300-744). The device interfaces
directly to an IF signal, which could be either 1st or 2nd IF
and integrates a 10-bit Analog-to-Digital Converter (ADC),
a Numerically Controlled Oscillator (NCO) and a
Phase-Locked Loop (PLL), simplifying external logic
requirements and limiting system costs.
The TDA10045H performs all the COFDM demodulation
tasks from IF signal to the MPEG-2 transport stream. An
internal DSP core manages the synchronization and the
control of the demodulation process, and implements
specially developed software for robustness against
co-channeland adjacent channel interference, to dealwith
Single Frequency Network (SFN) echo situations, and to
assist in a very fast scan of the bandwidth. After baseband
conversion and FFT demodulation, the channel frequency
response is estimated, which is based on the scattered
pilots, and filtered in both time and frequency domains.
This estimation is used as a correction on the signal,
carrier by carrier. A common phase error and estimator is
usedtodealwiththetunerphasenoise.TheForwardError
Correction (FEC) decoder is automatically synchronized
by the frame synchronization algorithm that uses the TPS
information included in the modulation. An embedded
‘pulse killer’ algorithm enables the bad effects of short and
strong impulsive noise interference that could be caused
by electrical domestic devices and/or car traffic to be
greatly reduced.
This device is controlled via an I
2
C-bus (master). The chip
provides 2 switchable I
2
C-buses derived from the master:
a tuner I
2
C-bus to be disconnected from the I
2
C-bus
master when not necessary and an EEPROM I
2
C-bus.
The DSP software code can be fed to the chip via the
master I
2
C-bus or via the dedicated EEPROM I
2
C-bus.
Designed in 0.2
μ
m CMOS technology and housed in a
100 pin QFP package, the TDA10045H operates over the
commercial temperature range.
