Si2144
Worldwide Digital Set-Top Box Tuner
Description
The Si2144 is the industry's most advanced digital Set-Top
Box (STB) tuner supporting all worldwide cable and
terrestrial TV standards for digital TV reception. Like the
previous generations of Silicon Labs' digital TV tuners, the
Si2144 maintains very high linearity and low phase noise to
deliver superior picture quality compared to competing
silicon tuners.
Available in an industry-leading 3x3 mm QFN package, the
Si2144 delivers the lowest-cost, most design-friendly and
area-efficient digital STB solution available today. A
fully-integrated RF front-end eliminates the need for an
external balun, LNAs, SAW filters, and inductive power
supply filtering. Also included is a fully-integrated
loop-through function with a zero-power mode switch
(ZPS) for additional board area and BOM savings. An
on-chip 1.8 V LDO enables single-supply operation, while
a dual-supply option offers additional system flexibility. The
Si2144’s excellent immunity to LTE interference and
harmonic rejection mixer with outstanding immunity to
Wi-Fi interference eliminate the need for external filtering.
For advanced digital broadcast standards with high-order
constellations, such as DVB-T2 and DVB-C2, the Si2144's
superior integrated phase noise delivers industry-leading
reception performance.
The Si2144 delivers a higher number of received stations
compared to other silicon tuners. Incorporating worldwide
field experience from prior generations of digital tuners in
mass production, the Si2144 delivers the highest tolerance
to real-world reception conditions.
