ZL10312 Data Sheet Overview The ZL10312 is a QPSK/BPSK 1 - 45 MSps demodulator and channel decoder for digital satellite television transmissions compliant to both DVB-S and DSS standards and other systems. A Command Driven Control (CDC) system is provided making the ZL10312 very simple to program. After the tuner has been programmed to the required frequency to acquire a DVB transmission, the ZL10312 requires a minimum of five registers to be written. The ZL10312 provides a monitor of Bit Error Rate after the QPSK module and also after the Viterbi module. For receiver installation, a high speed scan or 'blind search' mode is available. This allows all signals from a given satellite to be evaluated for frequency, symbol rate and convolutional coding scheme. The phase of the IQ signals can be automatically determined. Full DiSEqC v2.x is provided for both writing and reading DiSEqC messages. Storage in registers for up to eight data bytes sent and eight data bytes received is provided.

Data Sheet ZL10312 1.0 Functional Overview 1.1 Introduction Data Sheet ZL10312 is a single-chip variable rate digital QPSK/BPSK satellite demodulator and channel decoder. The ZL10312 accepts base-band in-phase and quadrature analogue signals and delivers an MPEG or DSS packet data stream. Digital filtering in ZL10312 removes the need for programmable external anti-alias filtering for all symbol rates from 1 - 45 MSps. Frequency, timing and carrier phase recovery are all digital and the only feed-back to the analogue front-end is for automatic gain control. The digital phase recovery loop enables very fine bandwidth control that is needed to overcome performance degradation due to phase and thermal noise. All acquisition algorithms are built into the ZL10312 controller. The ZL10312 can be operated in a Command Driven Control (CDC) mode by specifying the symbol rate and Viterbi code rate. There is also a provision for a search for unknown symbol rates and Viterbi code rates. 1.2 Analogue-to-Digital Converter and PLL The A/D converters sample single-ended or differential analogue inputs and consist of a dual ADC and circuitry to provide improved SiNaD (Signal-Noise and Distortion) and channel matching. The fixed rate sampling clock is provided on-chip using a programmable PLL needing only a low cost 10 to 16 MHz crystal. Different crystal frequencies can be combined with different PLL ratios, depending on the maximum symbol rate, allowing a very flexible approach to clock generation. An external clock signal in the range 4 to 16 MHz can also be used as the master clock. 1.3 QPSK Demodulator The demodulator in the ZL10312 consists of signal amplitude offset compensation, frequency offset compensation, decimation filtering, carrier recovery, symbol recovery and matched filtering. The decimation filters give continuous operation from 2Mbits/s to 90Mbits/s allowing one receiver to cover the needs of the consumer market as well as the single carrier per channel (SCPC) market with the same components without compromising performance, that is, the channel reception is within 0.5dB of theoretical. For a given symbol rate, control algorithms on the chip detect the number of decimation stages needed and switch them in automatically. The frequency offset compensation circuitry is capable of tracking out up to ±22.5 MHz frequency offset. This allows the system to cope with relatively large frequency uncertainties introduced by the Low Noise Block (LNB). Full control of the LNB is provided by the DiSEqC outputs from the ZL10312. Horizontal/vertical polarisation and an instruction modulated 22kHz signal are available under register control. All DiSEqC v2.x functions are implemented on the ZL10312. An internal state machine that handles all the demodulator functions controls the signal acquisition and tracking. Various pre-set modes are available as well as blind acquisition where the receiver has no prior knowledge of the received signal. Fast acquisition algorithms have been provided for low symbol rate applications. Full interactive control of the acquisition function is possible for debug purposes. In the event of a signal fade or a cycle slip, the QPSK demodulator allows sufficient time for the FEC to re-acquire lock, for example, via a phase rotation in the Viterbi decoder. This is to minimise the loss of signal due to the signal fade. Only if the FEC fails to re-acquire lock for a long period (which is programmable) would QPSK try to re-acquire the signal. The matched filter is a root-raised-cosine filter with either 0.20 or 0.35 roll-off, compliant with DSS and DVB standards. Although not a part of the DVB standard, ZL10312 allows a roll-off of 0.20 to be used with other DVB parameters. An AGC signal is provided to control the signal levels in the tuner section of the receiver and ensure the signal level fed to the ZL10312 is set at an optimal value under all reception conditions. The ZL10312 provides comprehensive information on the input signal and the state of the various parts of the device. This information includes signal to noise ratio (SNR), signal level, AGC lock, timing and carrier lock signals. A maskable interrupt output is available to inform the host controller when events occur. 6 Zarlink Semiconductor Inc. ZL10312 1.4 Data Sheet Forward Error Correction The ZL10312 contains FEC blocks to enable error correction for DVB-S and DSS transmissions. The Viterbi decoder block can decode the convolutional code with rates 1/2, 2/3, 3/4, 5/6, 6/7 or 7/8. The block features automatic synchronisation, automatic spectral inversion resolution and automatic code rate detection. The trace back depth of 128 provides better performance at high code rates and the built-in synchronisation algorithm allows the Viterbi decoder to lock onto signals with very poor signal-to-noise ratios. A Viterbi bit error rate monitor provides an indication of the error rate at the QPSK output. The 24-bit error count register in the Viterbi decoder allows the bit error rate at the output of the QPSK demodulator to be monitored. The 24-bit bit error count register in the Reed-Solomon decoder allows the Viterbi output bit error rate to be monitored. The 16-bit uncorrectable packet counter yields information about the output packet error rate. These three monitors and the QPSK SNR register allow the performance of the device and its individual components, such as the QPSK demodulator and the Viterbi decoder, to be monitored extensively by the external microprocessor. The frame/byte align block features a sophisticated synchronisation algorithm to ensure reliable recovery of DVB and DSS framed data streams under worst case signal conditions. The de-interleaver uses on-chip RAM and is compatible with the DVB and DSS algorithms. The Reed-Solomon decoder is a truncated version of the (255, 239) code. The code block size is 204 for DVB and 146 for DSS. The decoder provides a count of the number of uncorrectable blocks as well as the number of bit errors corrected. The latter gives an indication of the bit error rate at the output of the Viterbi decoder. In DVB mode, spectrum de-scrambling is performed compatible with the DVB specification. The final output is a parallel or serial transport data stream; packet sync; data clock; and a block error signal. The data clock may be inverted under software control. 2.0 Electrical Characteristics 2.1 Recommended Operating Condition Parameter Symbol Min. Typ.
