The Intel® CE 5039 DVB-S Free-to-Air* tuner is a fully integrated L band zero intermediate frequency (ZIF) tuner that meets the performance requirements of the European Broadcast Union ETS 300-421. The Intel CE 5039 DVB-S tuner features a programmable RF loop-through, independent RF and IF automatic gain control (AGC), and fully integrated “power and forget” voltage controlled oscillators (VCOs) and baseband filters that require no calibration, alignment or temperature/aging compensation.
The baseband channel filters have continuously programmable bandwidth for 1 to 45 Msps operation. The Intel CE 5039 DVB-S Free-to-Air tuner has excellent sensitivity performance at low power consumption and includes software/hardware power-down modes for Energy Star* requirements.
Intel supports the Intel® CE 5039 DVB-S Free-to-Air tuner with a reference design for the Free-to-Air market segment. This reference design uses the Intel® CE 6313 QPSK DVB-S demodulator and enables you to quickly evaluate and implement the DVB-S standard for your application.
The solution includes complete documentation and test results, with software supported directly by Intel. It offers excellent signal-handling performance at very low power consumption and is optimized for the specific field requirements of the Free-to-Air market segment.
