DESCRIPTION
The VES9600 is a single chip channel receiver for 2K and 8K COFDM modulated signals based on the ETSI specification (ETSI 300 744). The device interfaces directly to an IF signal, which is sampled by a 9-bit AD converter.
The VES9600 performs all the COFDM demodulation tasks from IF signal to the MPEG2 transport stream. An internal DSP core manages the synchronization and the control of the demodulation process.
