Dual Output LNB Supply and Control
Voltage Regulator with I²C Interface for
Advanced Satellite Set-Top Box Designs
The ISL6422B is a highly integrated voltage regulator and
interface IC, specifically designed for supplying power and
control signals from advanced satellite set-top box (STB)
modules to the low noise blocks (LNBs) of two antenna
ports. The device is consists of two independent current-
mode boost PWMs and two low-noise linear regulators along
with the circuitry required for 22kHz tone generation,
modulation and I²C device interface. The device makes the
total LNB supply design simple, efficient and compact with
low external component count.
Two independent current-mode boost converters provide the
linear regulators with input voltages that are set to the final
output voltages, plus typically 0.8V to insure minimum power
dissipation across each linear regulator. This maintains
constant voltage drops across each linear pass element
while permitting adequate voltage range for tone injection.
The final regulated output voltages are available at two
output terminals to support simultaneous operation of two
antenna ports for dual tuners. The outputs for each PWM
can be controlled in two ways, full control from I²C using the
VTOP1, VTOP2 and VBOT1, VBOT2 bits or set the I²C to
the lower range ie 13V/14V and switch to higher range ie
18V/19V with the SELVTOP1, SELVTOP2 pins. All the
functions on this IC are controlled via the I²C bus by writing
8 bits words onto the System Registers (SR). The same
register can be read back, and four bits per output will report
the diagnostic status. Separate enable commands sent on the
I²C bus provide independent standby mode control for each
PWM and linear combination, disabling the output into
shutdown mode. Each output channel is capable of providing
750mA of continuous current. The overcurrent limit can be
digitally programmed.
The External modulation input EXTM1, EXTM2 can accept a
modulated DiSEqC command and transfer it symetrically to
the output. Alternatively the EXTM1, EXTM2 pins can be
used to modulate the continuous internal tone.
The FLT pin serves as an interrupt for the processor when any
condition turns OFF the LNB controller (Over- Temperature,
Overcurrent, Disable). The nature of the fault can be read of
the I²C registers.
