Video Processing Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix GMR against official Skyworks documentation to confirm reel packaging specifications. Confirm RoHS compliance status through current datasheets or environmental reports. Check for any Process Change Notifications (PCN) related to mold compound or sourcing changes. Ensure compatibility with existing board layouts regarding the 48-QFN footprint and thermal requirements before finalizing procurement decisions.

Video Processing Selection Notes

Select this component for designs requiring DVB-S2/S demodulation in space-constrained environments. The 48-QFN package offers a small form factor suitable for modern consumer electronics. Verify that the host system supports the required I2C and GPIO interface speeds. Consider the operating voltage range of 1.14 V to 3.6 V when designing power rails. Evaluate thermal dissipation needs due to the exposed pad design in the 7x7 mm package.

Video Processing Part Context

The SI2166 series represents Skyworks' solution for digital satellite reception. The SI2166-B20 variant specifically targets DVB-S2 and DVB-S standards.
