Vendor: Global IP Core Sales Category: Modulation Demodulation

DVB-C Demodulator

The demodulator is designed to be used together with a cable tuner and an analog to digital converter (ADC).

Overview

The demodulator is designed to be used together with a cable tuner and an analog to digital converter (ADC). The system has an internal state machine to control the operation, which can be externally configured via the SPI interface. This DVB-C QAM demodulator is supplied as a portable and synthesizable Verilog-2001 IP. The system is designed to be used in conjunction with a standard cable tuner. The QAM signal is acquired blindly, and QAM signal constellations from QAM 16 through QAM 256 are supported. The equalizer in the chip can be configured as fractional or symbol spaced. It acquires the QAM signal without a training sequence, in blind mode, and then tracks the signal in the decision-feedback mode. Signal degradation due to impulse noise in cable systems is overcome using a combination of convolutional interleaving and Reed-Solomon error correction.

Three Major Inflection Points for Sourcing Bluetooth Intellectual Property

Synopsys is now shipping support for Bluetooth® 5.4, the latest specification from the Bluetooth SIG (Special Interest Group). The enhancements in Bluetooth 5.4 will open additional markets and use cases. This is one of the many inflection points in the Bluetooth Low Energy market that will be discussed in this paper.

Part 2: Opening the 5G Radio Interface

Carriers are now deploying 5G across the globe driven by the need to keep up with relentless mobile data growth. 5G New Radio (NR) operates at higher frequencies to increase bandwidth, but at the expense of range. There will therefore be a need for a much larger number of 5G RUs to provide the same coverage. The availability of cost-effective, reliable and open 5G radio units is therefore critical.

An Integrated, Tunable RF Filter: an Enabler for Reconfigurable Front-Ends

This paper presents the design and performance of a key RF circuit necessary for the realization of a reconfigurable, integrated RF front-end: a tunable frequency, selectable bandwidth, on-chip, “SAW replacement” filter. The on-die tunable filter presented here has a tunable center frequency up to 1 GHz, a selectable bandwidth up to 40 MHz, and an adjacent channel rejection down to 60 dB.

Design considerations for integrated CMOS receivers

To meet the demands for the multi-band, multi-mode wireless standards in the current market, a highly integrated wireless receiver (RX) is desired. CMOS technology has become the technology of choice for the integrated receiver design.

Silicon IP for Programmable Baseband Processing

An efficient IP reuse strategy relies on IP blocks with wide applicability. That makes generic blocks, such as programmable processors preferable. However, in many applications such as handheld wireless terminals, additional silicon area and power consumption compared to fixed function solutions can not be accepted.
