TDA8010AM

· Fully balanced mixer with common base input
· Wide input power and frequency range
· One-band 2 pin oscillator
· Local oscillator buffer and prescaler
· SAW filter IF preamplifier with gain control input and switchable output
· Bandgap voltage stabilizer for oscillator stability
· External IF filter between the mixer output and the IF amplifier input.

· Down frequency conversion in DBS (Direct Broadcasting Satellite) satellite receivers.

The TDA8010M; TDA8010AM are integrated circuits that perform the mixer/oscillator function in satellite tuners.
The devices include a gain controlled IF amplifier that can directly drive two single-ended SAW filters or a differential SAW filter using a three function switchable output.

They contain an internal LO prescaler and buffer of the TDA8010AM that is compatible with the input of a terrestrial or satellite frequency synthesizer. They are also suitable for digital TV tuners. These devices are available in small outline packages that give the designer the capability to design an economical and physically small satellite tuner.
