DESCRIPTION AND APPLICATIONS
The ISG4042EU-T is an RF tuner/transmitter designed for
use in EURO DOCSIS cable modem applications. It is a
complete solution that interfaces directly with QAM Mod/
Demod IC's. The tuner/transmitter integrates a diplex filter,
dual conversion receiver, transmit AGC amplifier, and other
RF filtering (see Figure 1). The diplex filter provides over 40
dB of isolation between the TX band and the RX band. The
receiver channel selects and converts QAM signals in the RX
band down to the IF sampling frequency. It also provides the
necessary gain control to adjust the input power to the DSP
chip. The RF transmitter section provides > 56 dB of digitally
controlled range while maintaining excellent linearity perfor-
mance.
