DESCRIPTION

STMicroelectronics introduces the STV0288, its latest DVB and DIRECTVTM QPSK digital receiver, which adds blind scan capability and DiSEqC 2.0 to the industry-leading STV0299 and provides a cost reduction path or new products. The STV0288 contains two 8-bit analog-to-digital converters for I-input and Q-input, a QPSK demodulator, and a forward error correction (FEC) unit having both an inner (Viterbi) and an outer (Reed-Solomon) decoder. The device accepts baseband differential signals as I and Q inputs.
