SI2167-D60-GM

Video Processing Overview

The Si2167-D60-GM is a digital TV demodulator integrating first and second generation DVB standards (DVB-T/C/S/S2/S2X) in a single CMOS die. It operates with two power supplies: VDD_VCORE at 1.14 to 1.30 V and VDD_VANA/VDD_VIO at 3.00 to 3.60 V. The device supports QPSK, 8PSK, and up to 32APSK modulation for satellite, OFDM for terrestrial, and QAM for cable. Input clock reference ranges from 4 to 30 MHz, with supported XTAL frequencies between 16 and 30 MHz. Total power consumption varies by standard, ranging from 142 mW for DVB-C2 to 421 mW for DVB-S2.

Video Processing Feature Summary

• Integrates digital demodulators for DVB-T, DVB-C, DVB-S, DVB-S2, and DVB-S2X standards on a single advanced CMOS die.
• Supports QPSK, 8PSK, and 8/16/32APSK demodulation for satellite broadcast services with LDPC and BCH FEC decoding.
• Features an on-chip blind scan algorithm for DVB-S/S2/S2X and DVB-C standards along with a blind lock function.
• Provides a flexible transport stream output interface compatible with serial, parallel, and slave modes.

Video Processing Applications

• iDTV on-board design or in a NIM
• Advanced multimedia STB, PVR, and Blu-ray recorders
• PC-TV accessories

Video Processing Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against official Skyworks documentation to confirm package type and compliance status. Confirm availability through authorized distributors as supply may be restricted. Ensure compatibility with existing firmware and API requirements before procurement.

Video Processing Selection Notes

Select this component for designs requiring integrated support for both legacy and modern DVB standards including S2X. Consider the low power consumption and small QFN-48 package size for space-constrained applications. Verify that the host system can support the required I2C and SPI interfaces for firmware control and configuration.

Video Processing Part Context

The Si2167-D60-GM belongs to the Si216x family of digital demodulators from Silicon Laboratories. It is pin-to-pin compatible with other single demodulators in the series and shares API compatibility across single and dual demodulator families, facilitating easier integration into existing designs.

Video Processing Replacement Considerations

Check for direct replacements within the Si216x family such as the Si2169 or Si2168, ensuring pinout and feature parity. Verify that any substitute part supports the specific DVB-S2X and 32APSK requirements if applicable.
