FC8150
Terrestrial Integrated Services Digital Broadcasting (ISDB-T 1-seg)
RF tuner & Demodulator SoC
1. Overview
1.1. Introduction
The FC8150 chip is a highly integrated device for receiving Integrated Services Digital Broadcasting
Terrestrial. FC8150 has all of the performance needed to enable the full range of ISDB-T application. It
consists of two main blocks, RF tuner and demodulator.
The RF tuner block is designed for use in Japanese and Brazilian mobile digital TV (ISDB-T single-
segment) applications. This part directly converts UHF band signals to a low-IF using a broadband
down-converter. It contains LNA, down-conversion mixer, channel selection filter (CSF), and LO
distribution network for UHF band
The demodulator block (OFDM decoder) is part of a receiver for digital terrestrial television
broadcast in accordance with the ISDB-T Japanese standard (STD-B31), which has all necessary
functions for 1-segment mobile receiving. Designed by our unique synchronization and equalization
technologies oriented toward mobile receiving, it gives good performances for high-speed moving
applications. It is also suitable for cellular phone usages with its low-power-consumption and ultra-
compact package size.
