M I C R O T U N E ® MT7402 HYBRID CAR TV TUNER MODULE FOR AUTOMOTIVE APPLICATIONS PRODUCT BRIEF The MT7402 is a high-end tuner for terrestrial analog and digital TV reception. It’s designed to meet the stringent requirements of mobile applications. The MT7402 Hybrid Car TV Tuner Module is specifically designed to meet the demanding performance targets of automotive customers, at an attractive price. This tuner is compatible with both analog TV standards as well as with the digital DVB-T standard, enabling customers to realize a highly integrated, high-performance, cost-effective hybrid car TV receiver solution. The MT7402 Tuner Module converts the RF signal into an IF signal. It combines a low noise figure with high gain and offers an operational frequency of 45 MHz to 860 MHz divided into VHF low, VHF high and UHF bands. Signal paths for the three different bands are realized separately, providing excellent performance. The RF AGC can be controlled either externally via the RF AGC voltage input or automatically via the internal AGC loop control, with programmable parameters for threshold and time constant. The address select function enables the use of up to four MT7402 tuners to realize high performance functions like tuner diversity, frequency diversity, or blending between analog TV and DVB-T reception. The analog TV section provides a balanced IF output capable of directly driving an external surface acoustical wave (SAW) filter. The external demodulation can cover all analog TV standards, provided that the picture carrier is fixed at 38.9 MHz and the filtering of the tone carrier is done accordingly. The digital TV section contains a switchable (7/8 MHz) SAW filter for excellent adjacent channel performance, an IF amplifier for filter loss compensation, and offers a balanced IF output to directly drive an external DVB-T demodulator. The IF gain can be controlled externally via the IF AGC voltage input. Band selection, tuning, and several tuner functions are controlled via I2C serial bus. The MT7402 Tuner Module combines very small size with high performance in harsh environments, making them especially suitable for automotive and mobile applications.
