Silicon TV Tuners

Entropic offers silicon TV tuner ICs for satellite, cable and terrestrial applications that conform to most major digital video broadcast standards. Our silicon TV tuner ICs integrate RF functions, including those performed by a surface acoustic wave filter, with other major discrete components onto a single die while maintaining the performance of traditional non-silicon can tuners. Our highly integrated solutions significantly reduce our customers' design costs, component count and shrink the footprint of the tuner in consumer electronic devices.
Benefits:

-Offers high performance tuner capabilities
-Reduces component count and complexity
-Lowers overall design costs
-Provides a small footprint to increase design flexibility

HDMI™ Receivers
Entropic’s innovative HDMI receiver ICs provide the highest level of integration combined with best in class performance. Using highly advanced digital signal processing techniques to achieve extremely robust, jitter-tolerant signal recovery, Entropic’s industry leading receivers can equalize up to 40dB of cable attenuation at frequencies exceeding 825MHz, far exceeding HDMI specification requirements. This performance enables the TV set manufacturer to position HDMI inputs anywhere in the TV set without the need for external equalizers, repeaters, or switches.

Benefits:

-Offers high performance single chip design
-Fast signal acquisition and switching times
-Eliminates need for 1:1 repeaters or equalizers
-Supports Cables up to 40 meters
-Provides design flexibility while lowering the bill of materials for digital TVs

Applications:
-DTV and HDTV
-HD Projector
