This receiver is capable of receiving all standard-definition and high-definition digital formats (SDTV/HDTV). An out-of-band QPSK receiver is also contained to meet the needs of the CableCARD specification. The BCM3517’s digital receiver accepts an analog signal centered at the standard television IF frequencies, and amplifies and digitizes this signal with an integrated programmable gain amplifier and 12-bit A/D converter. The output of the A/D is sent to the receiver and demodulator. The digital receiver consists of a QAM demodulator and a VSB demodulator. Each demodulator contains adaptive filters that remove multipath propagation effects, NTSC co-channel interference, and RFI interference. The output of the VSB demodulator goes to an ATSC A/53 coding forward error corrector (FEC), with integrated trellis and ReedSolomon decoder. The output of the QAM demodulator goes to an ITUT J.83 Annex A/B/C coding FEC. The output of either QAM or VSB FEC is delivered in either parallel or serial MPEG-2 transport format. All gain, clock, and carrier, acquisition, and tracking loops are integrated on-chip as are the necessary phase-locked loops, referenced to a single external crystal. Chip configuration, channel acquisition, and performance monitoring functions are conducted by the on-chip acquisition processor using Broadcom-provided software.
