Abstract

This paper describes a single ASIC chip that demodulates and decodes vestigial side band (VSB) digital TV signals. The VSB IC has been implemented for the receiver based on the ATSC digital TV standard. It features fast digital carrier recovery and robust channel equalization. The IC is fabricated with 0.35 μm CMOS technology with 3 metal layers. It can be applied to both modes of signal reception -8 VSB for terrestrial broadcast and 16 VSB for cable transmission
