generates the voltages (V

dissipated power of 0.5 W typ. @ 500 mA load (the LDO drop voltage is internally kept at

2.1 DiSEqC data encoding (DSQIN pin)
The internal 22 kHz tone generator is factory trimmed in accordance to DiSEqC standards,
and can be activated in 3 different ways:
1.by an external 22 kHz source DiSEqC data connected to the DSQIN logic pin (TTL
compatible). In this case the I²C Tone control bits must be set: EXTM = TEN = 1.
2. by an external DiSEqC data envelope source connected to the DSQIN logic pin. In this
case the I²C Tone control bits must be set: EXTM = 0 and TEN = 1.
3. through the TEN I²C bit if a 22 kHz presence is requested in continuous mode. In this
case the DSQIN TTL pin must be pulled HIGH and EXTM bit set to “0”.

). The
Each of the above solutions requires that during the 22 kHz tone activation and/or DiSEqC
data transmission, the LPM bit must be set to “0” (see
2.4: LPM (low power mode)
2.2 Data encoding by external 22 kHz tone TTL signal
In order to improve design flexibility an external tone signal can be input to the DSQIN pin by
setting the EXTM bit to “1”.
The DSQIN is a logic input pin which activates the 22 kHz tone to the V
LNBH25 integrated tone generator.
The output tone waveforms are internally controlled by the LNBH25 tone generator in terms
of rise/fall time and tone amplitude, while, the external 22 kHz signal on the DSQIN pin is
used to define the frequency and the duty cycle of the output tone. A TTL compatible 22 kHz
signal is required for the proper control of the DSQIN pin function. Before sending the TTL
signal on the DSQIN pin, the EXTM and TEN bits must be previously set to “1”. As soon as
the DSQIN internal circuit detects the 22 kHz TTL external signal code, the LNBH25
activates the 22 kHz tone on the V
activation, and it stops with about 60 µs delay after the 22 kHz TTL signal on DSQIN has
expired (refer to

2.3 Data encoding by external DiSEqC envelope control through
the DSQIN pin
If an external DiSEqC envelope source is available, it is possible to use the internal 22 kHz
generator activated during the tone transmission by connecting the DiSEqC envelope
source to the DSQIN pin. In this case the I²C Tone control bits must be set: EXTM = 0 and
TEN = 1. In this way, the internal 22 kHz signal is superimposed to the V

the internal control circuit activates the 22 kHz tone output.

pin is activated with about 6 µs delay from the DSQIN TTL

2.4 LPM (low power mode)
In order to reduce total power loss, the LNBH25 is provided with the LPM I²C bit that can be
activated (LPM=1) in applications where the 22 kHz tone can be disabled for long time
periods. The LPM bit can be set to “1” when the DiSEqC data transmission is not requested
(no 22 kHz tone output is present); at this condition the drop voltage across the integrated
LDO regulator (V
UP-VOUT
) is reduced to 0.6 V typ. and, consequently, the power loss inside
the LNBH25 linear regulator is reduced too. For example: at 500 mA load, LPM=1 allowing a
minimum LDO dissipated power of 0.3 W typ. It is recommended to set the LPM bit to “0”
before starting the 22 kHz DiSEqC data transmission; at this condition the drop voltage
across the LDO is kept to 1 V typ. Keep LPM=0 at all times in case the LPM function is not
used.
2.5 DiSEqC 2.0 implementation
The built-in 22 kHz tone detector completes the fully bi-directional DiSEqC 2.0 interfacing.
The input pin (DETIN) must be AC coupled to the DiSEqC BUS, and extracted PWK data is
available on the DSQOUT pin. To comply with the bi-directional DiSEqC 2.0 bus hardware

requirements an output RL filter is needed. In order to avoid 22 kHz waveform distortion
during tone transmission, LNBH25 is provided with the BPSW pin to be connected to an
external transistor, which allows to bypass the output RL filter in DiSEqC 2.x applications
while in transmission mode. Before starting tone transmission by means of the DSQIN pin,
make sure that the TEN bit is preventively set to “1” and after ending tone transmission,
make sure that the TEN bit is set to “0”.
2.6 Output current limit selection
The linear regulator current limit threshold can be set by an external resistor connected to
the ISEL pin. The resistor value defines the output current limit by the equation:

2.7 Output voltage selection
The linear regulator output voltage level can be easily programmed in order to accomplish
application specific requirements, using 4 bits of an internal DATA 1 register (see
registers
and

for exact programmable values). Register writing is accessible via the
I²C bus.
2.8 Diagnostic and protection functions
LNBH25 has 8 diagnostic internal functions provided via the I²C bus, by reading 8 bits on
two STATUS registers (in read mode). All the diagnostic bits are, in normal operation (that is
no failure detected), set to LOW. Two diagnostic bits are dedicated to the overtemperature
and overload protection status (OTF and OLF) while the remaining 6 bits are dedicated to
the output voltage level (VMON), to 22 kHz tone characteristics (TMON), to the minimum
load current (IMON), to external voltage source presence on the V
input voltage Power Not Good function (PNG) and to the 22 kHz tone presence on the
DETIN pin (TDET). Once the OLF (or OTF or PNG) bit has been activated (set to “1”), it is
latched to “1” until relevant cause is removed and a new register reading operation is done.

2.9 Surge protections and TVS diodes
The LNBH25 device is directly connected to the antenna cable in a set-top box. Atmospheric
phenomenon can cause high voltage discharges on the antenna cable causing damage to
the attached devices. Surge pulses occur due to direct or indirect lightning strikes to an
external (outdoor) circuit. This leads to currents or electromagnetic fields causing high
voltage or current transients. Transient voltage suppressor (TVS) devices are usually
placed, as shown in the following schematic, to protect the STB output circuits where the
LNBH25 and other devices are electrically connected to the antenna cable.
Figure 4.Surge protection circuit
For this purpose we recommend the use of LNBTVSxx surge protection diodes specifically
designed by ST. The selection of LNBTVS diodes should be made based on the maximum
peak power dissipation that the diode is capable of supporting (see Ppp (W) parameter in
the LNBTVS datasheet for further details).
2.10 FLT: fault flag
In order to get an immediate feedback on diagnostic status, LNBH25 is equipped with a
dedicated fault flag pin (FLT). In the case of overload (OLF bit=1) or overheating (OTF bit=1)
or if Power No Good (PNG bit=1) condition is detected, the FLT pin (open drain output) is set
to low and is kept low until the relevant activating diagnostic bit is cleared. Be aware that
diagnostic bits OLF, OTF and PNG, once activated, are kept latched to “1” until the cause
origin is removed and a new register reading operation is performed by the microprocessor.
The FLT pin must be connected to a positive voltage (5 V max.) by means of a pull-up
resistor.

When a 22 kHz tone presence is detected on the DETIN pin, the TDET I²C bit is set to “1”.
2.14 IMON: minimum output current diagnostic
In order to detect the output load absence (no LNB connected on the bus or cable not
connected to the IRD) the LNBH25 is provided with a minimum output current flag by the
IMON I²C bit, accessible in read mode, which is set to “1” if the output current is lower than
12 mA (typ.). It is recommended to use IMON function only with the 22 kHz tone
transmission deactivated, otherwise the IMON bit could be set to “0” even if the output
current is below the minimum current threshold. To activate IMON diagnostic function, set to
“1” the EN_IMON I²C bit in the DATA 4 register. Be aware that as soon as the IMON function
is activated by means of EN_IMON=1, the V

respond to any I²C command and all DATA register bits are initialized to zeroes, therefore

2.18 ISW: inductor switching current limit

In order to allow low saturation current inductors to be used, the maximum DC-DC inductor
switching current limit threshold can be set by means of one I²C bit (ISW). Two values are
available: 2.5 A typ. (with ISW = 1) and 4 A typ. (with ISW = 0).

2.19 COMP: boost capacitor ESR
DC-DC converter compensation loop can be optimized in order to work well with high or low
ESR capacitors (on the V
pin). For this purpose, one I²C bit in the DATA 4 register
UP
(COMP) can be set to “1” or “0”. It is recommended to reset this bit to “0” unless using high
ESR capacitors.
2.20 OLF: overcurrent and short-circuit protection and diagnostic
In order to reduce the total power dissipation during an overload or a short-circuit condition,
the device is provided with a dynamic short-circuit protection. It is possible to set the shortcircuit current protection either statically (simple current clamp) or dynamically by the PCL
bit of the I²C DATA 3 register. When the PCL (pulsed current limiting) bit is set Io LOW, the
overcurrent protection circuit works dynamically: as soon as an overload is detected, the
output current is provided for T
programmed in the DATA 3 register) and after that, the output is set in shutdown for T
time of typically 900 ms. Simultaneously, the diagnostic OLF I²C bit of the system register is
set to “1” and the FLT pin is set to low level. After this time has elapsed, the output is
resumed for a time T

TIMER=1) and an internal timer determines it. This dynamic operation can greatly reduce
the power dissipation in short-circuit condition, still ensuring excellent power-on startup in
most conditions. However, there could be some cases in which a highly capacitive load on
the output may cause a difficult startup when the dynamic protection is chosen. This can be
solved by initiating any power startup in static mode (PCL=1) and, then, switching to the
dynamic mode (PCL=0) after a chosen amount of time depending on the output
capacitance. Also in static mode, the diagnostic OLF bit goes to “1” (and the FLT pin is set to
low) when the current clamp limit is reached and returns LOW when the overload condition
is cleared and register reading is done.
After the overload condition is removed, normal operation can be resumed in two ways,
according to the OLR I²C bit on the DATA 4 register.
If OLR=1, all VSEL 1..4 bits are reset to “0” and LNB output (V

The LNBH25 is also protected against overheating: when the junction temperature exceeds
150 °C (typ.), the step-up converter and the linear regulator are shut off, the diagnostic OTF

generate the STOP information in order to abort the transfer. The LNBH25 won't generate
acknowledge if the V
supply is below the undervoltage lockout threshold (4.7 V typ.).

6.5 Transmission without acknowledge
Avoiding to detect the acknowledges of the LNBH25, the microprocessor can use a simpler
transmission: it simply waits one clock without checking the slave acknowledging, and sends
the new data. This approach is of course less protected from misworking and decreases
noise immunity.

7.1 Write mode transmission
The LNBH25 interface protocol comprises:
●a start condition (S)
●a chip address byte with the LSB bit R/W = 0
●a register address (internal address of the first register to be accessed)
●a sequence of data (byte to write in the addressed internal register + acknowledge)
●the following bytes, if any, to be written in successive internal registers
●a stop condition (P). The transfer lasts until a stop bit is encountered
●the LNBH25, as slave, acknowledges every byte transfer.

7.2 Read mode transmission
In Read mode the bytes sequence must be as follows:
●a start condition (S)
●a chip address byte with the LSB bit R/W=0
●the register address byte of the internal first register to be accessed
●a stop condition (P)
●a new master transmission with the chip address byte and the LSB bit R/W=1
●after the acknowledge the LNBH25 starts to send the addressed register content. As
long as the master keeps the acknowledge LOW, the LNBH25 transmits the next
address register byte content.
●the transmission is terminated when the master sets the acknowledge HIGH with a
following stop bit.
