NXP Introduces TDA18272, High Performance Silicon Tuner for All Analog and Digital TV Standards Worldwide

The TDA18272 is a high performance Silicon Tuner designed for worldwide terrestrial and cableTV reception. TDA18272 supports all analog and digital TV standards and delivers a low IF signal to IF demodulator for Analog TV, to channel decoder for digital TV, or directly to TVSystem on Chip solution. Dual stream applications are optimized by specific Master (M) and Slave (S) versions. The DVB-T2-enabled TDA18272 supports all analog and digital TV standards worldwide, helping TV manufacturers get ready for the next- generation TV sets. Driving system optimized silicon tuners, NXP has shipped over 400 million NXP silicon tuners to date. The TDA18272 represents the fourth generation of silicon tuners designed by NXP. The TDA18272 addresses the growing global demand for highly integrated, low power and ultra-slim TV architectures. Possessing a very small form factor, the TDA18272 comes in a 40 pin, 6mmx6mm package which facilitates the design of ultra-slim, flat TV panels. Featuring a high level of integration, the TDA18272 incorporates RF tracking filters, oscillators, IF selectivity and wide band gain control, eliminating the need for external components such as SAW filters or Baluns. With TDA18272, NXP introduces a unique Master/Slave architecture for optimizing the design of multi-tuner applications. The TDA18272 is manufactured under NXP’s zero defect program which enables manufacturers to simplify product assembly and supply-chain management…
