DVB-T Demodulator for Seamless
Integration with Xceive TV Tuners

The XC800 is a high-performance COFDM demodulator designed to complement Xceive’s
XC5000 and XC4300 smart silicon TV tuners for flat panel televisions and PC tuner products. An XC800 paired with either the XC5000 or XC4300 forms a complete tuner-demodulator solution that assures compatibility and ease-of-design.

Advantages:

Xceive Digital Direct Interface (XDDI) produces higher performance and simpler design

Lower manufacturing costs through:
• Shared frequency clock with XC tuner requires no crystal
• Shared power supply requires no external regulator (XC4300)
• No external SAW required

Enhanced ease of use and complete RF front end system

One-stop-shopping for front end components simplifies ordering and support

XC800 Product Brief

White-paper: Silicon Tuners will Replace Can Tuners...

 
The XC800 digital demodulator features Xceive’s innovative direct digital interface (XDDI). XDDI in the XC800 replaces a conventional IF interface to Xceive smart silicon tuners. This eliminates the DAC/ADC in both tuner and demodulator, and simplifies hardware design because no AGC is required. As a result, the
quantization noise normally introduced by ADC/DAC is also eliminated resulting in improved picture quality.

The XC800’s XDDI interface results in lower power consumption and a more robust interface. Consumers experience significantly less noise interference than a traditional demodulator/tuner combination, resulting in better reception capability and higher-quality video.
