TUA 6039F-2

Video Processing Overview

The TUA 6039F-2 is a 3-band digital/hybrid tuner IC from Infineon's OmniTune series, packaged in a PG-VQFN-48. It integrates a mixer-oscillator block with SAW filter driver and an IF AGC amplifier. The device operates on a 5V supply and supports analog standards (PAL, NTSC, SECAM) and digital terrestrial standards including DVB-T, ATSC, ISDB-T, and DMB-TH. Key functional blocks include three balanced mixers, a digitally programmable PLL with I2C interface, and narrowband RF AGC detection.

Video Processing Feature Summary

• Integrates a three-band mixer-oscillator block with dedicated oscillators for LOW, MID, and HIGH frequency ranges.
• Features a fully balanced IF AGC amplifier with low noise and high linearity to provide constant output levels.
• Includes a digitally programmable phase locked loop (PLL) controlled via I2C bus for precise frequency setting.
• Provides integrated narrowband RF AGC detection with programmable take-over points and time constants.

Video Processing Applications

• Digital terrestrial television tuners (DVB-T, ATSC, ISDB-T)
• Analog TV and VCR tuners supporting PAL, NTSC, and SECAM standards
• Mobile TV applications (T-DMB, DMB-TH)
• Set-top boxes requiring hybrid analog/digital reception

Video Processing Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'F-2' to confirm the inclusion of the ADC input function on port P4, which distinguishes it from the standard TUA 6037F model. Confirm package type PG-VQFN-48 matches design requirements. Check current availability status as this component may be discontinued or subject to last-time buy conditions.

Video Processing Selection Notes

Select the TUA 6039F-2 when an Analog-to-Digital Converter (ADC) input is required on port P4 for external sensor monitoring or signal sampling. Choose the TUA 6037F if the ADC functionality is unnecessary to simplify the application circuit. Ensure the design accommodates the 5V supply voltage and utilizes a 4 MHz crystal for the PLL reference clock.

Video Processing Part Context

Part of the OmniTune™ family of 3-band digital/hybrid tuners designed for consumer video applications. It combines RF tuning, mixing, and IF amplification into a single integrated circuit to reduce board space and component count compared to discrete solutions.

Video Processing Replacement Considerations

The TUA 6037F is a compatible alternative within the same datasheet if the ADC feature on pin P4 is not required. Verify pin compatibility and software register settings when substituting between these variants.

Video Processing FAQ

What is the primary difference between the TUA 6039F-2 and the TUA 6037F?

The TUA 6039F-2 includes an additional Analog-to-Digital Converter (ADC) input available on port P4, whereas the TUA 6037F does not support this function.

What crystal frequency is required for the PLL operation?

The device requires a 4 MHz quartz crystal connected to the X_TAL_IN and X_TAL_CAP pins to generate the reference frequencies for the phase-locked loop.
