The VES4113 is a DVB-compliant digital demodulator for 16, 32, 64, 128, or 256 QAM modulated signals. The device interfaces directly to the bandpass input signal, following 9-bit A/D conversion at four times the symbol rate. The VES4113 provides a feedback signal to control the sampling clock via an external VCXO and includes the carrier recovery function. The internal digital loop filters for both clock and carrier recovery are programmable to permit optimization according to the application. The VES4113 operates up to 28 MHz, can be directly connected to the VES5453 FEC decoder, and comes in a 68-lead PLCC package.

The VES4143 is a DVB-compliant variable-rate digital demodulator for BSPK and QPSK modulated signals. The device directly interfaces to I and Q digital baseband signals following down conversion. The center frequency, at twice the modulation rate, is programmable via the I2C interface and is internally tuned by the clock recovery circuitry. The carrier recovery function requires no feedback loop control from the IF local oscillator, decreasing overall system component cost. The VES4143 operates at speeds up to 60 MHz with modulation rates of up to 30 Mbaud, interfaces directly with the VES5453X FEC decoder, and is available in a 68-lead PLCC package.

The VES5453 is a single-chip forward error correction (FEC) decoder for digital broadcast satellite and cable television receivers. The VES5453 features Viterbi concatenated Reed-Solomon decoders with de-interleaving and descrambling. The algorithms implemented improve coding gain for punctured codes and are fully DVB-compliant. Automatic synchronization of the de-interleaver and the Reed-Solomon decoder is provided. The VES5453 includes an I2C bus interface for easy configuration and control. The I and Q inputs to the VES5453 can be connected directly to the VES4123 or VES4143 QPSK digital demodulator outputs, and the device comes in a 68-lead PLC package.
