Cable Modulator J.83 Annex B

Overview

The MVD cable modulator J83B core is a drop-in module that includes the following functions :
• Input data framer from DVB-SPI source (MPEG-TS flow)
• J83B modulator
- Checksum
- Reed-Solomon encoder
- Interleaver
- Trellis Coded Modulation
• Output for complex DAC (2 x 8 bits)

The MVD cable modulator J83B core is delivered for baseband output to be natively connected to AD9789 DAC from Analog Devices but can be used in Intermediate Frequency application (for Analog Devices (AD9744)) or in RF application when espectively connected to our UPSAMPLER or our PCONVERTER core (for Analog Devices (AD9739A) or Maxim RF DACs (MAX5881))
