BCM4501

Dual DVB-S2 Advanced Modulation Satellite Receiver

The BCM4501 is a fully integrated dual satellite receiver single-chip solution targeted at multituner advanced modulation satellite receiver systems and ideally suited for new generation PVR-satellite receivers and integrated multifunction Home Media Centers.

The BCM4501 integrates dual CMOS tuners and dual advanced modulation decoders supporting DVB-S2 Broadcast and DVB-S applications. The highly integrated tuner sections are based on existing volume production technologies in Broadcom and on a direct conversion technology to reduce external components and increase performance.

  • Direct conversion architecture in standard CMOS process that supports QPSK and 8PSK demodulation
  • Dual advanced demodulation decoders are DVB-S2 Broadcast and DVB-S compliant
  • Highly integrated, cost effective front-end solution for advanced modulation satellite systems in a single package
  • Ideal for next-generation PVR satellite systems and Home Media Centers, supporting DVB-S2 Broadcast, while maintaining backward-compatible support for DVB-S legacy transmissions
