Maxim Integrated Products is offering the MAX2135 diversity tuner for ISDB-T and DVB-T automotive applications.

The device integrates two signal paths that operate from a single fractional-N synthesizer.

Packaged in a 7x7mm TQFN package, the device can replace two separate tuner ICs.

It features a 3.8dB (typ) UHF noise figure, and consumes 330mW when both signal paths are active and 200mW when only one path is active.

The MAX2135 receives signals in three bands: VHF-low, VHF-III, and UHF. Furthermore, on-chip low pass filters accommodate 4, 6, 7, and 8MHz signal bandwidths, making the device ideal for receiving Japan's ISDB-T and Europe's DVB-T broadcasts.
