Marvell 88DE8020/25 Hybrid Demodulators Supports DVB-C/DVB-T/Analog-TV Standards PRODUCT OVERVIEW The Marvell® 88DE8020 and 88DE8025 hybrid demodulators with integrated ClearRF TM technology enable robust TV reception under complex signal impairment conditions in terrestrial and cable networks. The demodulators are compatible with typical low/high IF tuners and TV decoders. The 88DE8020 supports DVB-C/DVB-T/NTSC/ PAL/SECAM demodulation, while the 88DE8025 supports DVB-T/NTSC/PAL/SECAM demodulation. Both devices can demodulate 2K and 8K COFDM modulated signals based on the ETSI specification (ETSI EN 300 744) and QAM modulated signals based on the DVB-C specification (ETSI EN 300 429). They can also be programmed to demodulate analog NTSC/PAL/SECAM TV inputs and output CVBS and Sound IF signals.
