摘要
An RF front-end that could handle strong to weak input signals without the need for a low-noise amplifier, for use in a terrestrial wideband TV tuner IC, was designed and its performance was measured. It was found to exhibit >20 dB attenuation at the image frequency by implementing a 6th-order band-pass filter from 90 to 770 MHz with an auto-tuning function. The measured noise figure at IF output (57 MHz) was 5.0 to 5.5 dB in the UHF band and 4.8 to 9.0 dB in the VHF/CATV band at maximum gain. The TV tuner IC was fabricated using a 0.25-mu m RF-CMOS process. The overall dynamic range was demonstrated to be -78 to +5 dBm (13-segment ISDB-T, 64QAM, CR=7/8) using an external SAW filter, IF AGC amplifier, and OFDM demodulator(1).
