Overview

The NT2022 integrates GPS/Galileo/BeiDou and GLONASS receiver with TV-tuner intended to perform a simultaneous reception, down conversion, filtering and amplifying of both television and GNSS GPS/Galileo/BeiDou and GLONASS signals. The receiver supports DVB-H, DVB-T, IP-DAB, T-DMB, FM standards and covers FM (75 MHz to 108 MHz), VHF-III (170 MHz to 230 MHz), UHF (470 MHz to 860 MHz) bands, L-band (both 1450 MHz to 1490 MHz and 1660 MHz to 1685 MHz) and S-band (2170 MHz to 2200 MHz). So it is the optimal solution for navigation and TV reception on portable devices almost anywhere in the world.
IC is fabricated in SiGe BiCMOS TSMC 0.18 um technology.
