The RFFC2072 is a fully integrated multi-chip module (MCM) front-end IC designed for satellite set-top box (STB) applications. It integrates a direct conversion tuner, a low noise amplifier (LNA), and an image reject mixer. It provides a low-noise, high-linearity solution for demanding satellite receiver applications.

Applications:

• Satellite Set-Top Boxes (STBs)
• Satellite Receivers
• Direct Broadcast Satellite (DBS) Systems

Features:

• Wide Input Frequency Range: 950 MHz to 2150 MHz
• Integrated Low Noise Amplifier (LNA)
• Image Reject Mixer
• Direct Conversion Architecture
• Low Noise Figure
• High Linearity
• Single 3.3V Supply Voltage
• Small Form Factor Package

Benefits:

• Simplified design and reduced external component count.
• Excellent noise performance for weak signal reception.
• High linearity for improved signal quality.
• Small form factor package reduces board space requirements.

Additional Details:

The RFFC2072TR13 utilizes a direct conversion architecture, which eliminates the need for an intermediate frequency (IF) stage, simplifying the receiver design. The integrated LNA provides high gain with low noise figure. The image reject mixer effectively suppresses unwanted image frequencies. The device operates from a single 3.3V supply voltage. The RFFC2072 is offered in a small form factor package for space-constrained applications. The high linearity ensures high signal quality in demanding satellite receiver environments. The integration of multiple functions into a single chip reduces the bill of materials (BOM) and simplifies manufacturing. This product is RoHS compliant.
