Datasheet
The MAX2121 low-cost, direct-conversion tuner IC is
designed for satellite set-top and VSAT applications.
The device directly converts the satellite signals from
the LNB to baseband using a broadband I/Q downcon-
verter. The operating frequency range extends from
925MHz to 2175MHz.
The device includes an LNA and an RF variable-gain
amplifier, I and Q downconverting mixers, and base-
band lowpass filters and digitally controlled baseband
variable-gain amplifiers. Together, the RF and base-
band variable-gain amplifiers provide more than 80dB
of gain control range.
The device includes fully monolithic VCOs, as well as a
complete fractional-N frequency synthesizer.
Additionally, an on-chip crystal oscillator is provided
along with a buffered output for driving additional tuners
and demodulators. Synthesizer programming and device
configuration are accomplished with a 2-wire serial inter-
face. The IC features a VCO autoselect (VAS) function
that automatically selects the proper VCO. For multituner
applications, the device can be configured to have one
of two 2-wire interface addresses. A low-power standby
mode is available whereupon the signal path is shut
down while leaving the reference oscillator, digital inter-
face, and buffer circuits active, providing a method to
reduce power in single and multituner applications.
The device is the most advanced broadband/VSAT DBS
tuner available today. The low noise figure eliminates the
need for an external LNA. A small number of passive
components are needed to form a complete broadband
satellite tuner DVB-S2 RF front-end solution. The tuner is
available in a very small 28-pin Thin QFN package.
