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.

Global IP Core Launches Licensable Zigbee Transceiver PHY IP Core

Global IP Core rolled out the Zigbee Transceiver PHY IP Core for instant implementation. The IP Core is available for the Satellite Communication and Aerospace & Defense industry. The modulation and spreading functions for the O-QPSK PHYs are processed through 3 steps. First, each 4 bits are gathered to represent 1 symbol, which has a value from 0 to 15

DVB-C2 LDPC/ BCH Decoder FEC IP Core From Global IP Core

In Digital video broadcasting for cable systems systems, a powerful FEC sub-system is needed. FEC is based on LDPC (Low-Density Parity Check) codes concatenated with BCH (Bose Chaudhuri Hocquenghem) codes, allowing Quasi Error Free operation close to the Shannon limit.
