Multi-Standard Miniature Video Module FQ1216AME MK4
DESCRIPTION
The FQ1216AME family belongs to the new FM1200 MK 4 family of low profile frontends, which are designed
for Notebook TV and portable TV applications. The FQ1216AME combines the functions of Low Noise
Amplifier module, an all-band TV tuner, and a multi-standard TV IF demodulation unit for both positive and
negative modulated TV systems. The FQ1216ME is intended for CCIR L/L’ (France), B/G, I and D/K systems.
The frontends have a built-in digital (I
2
C) PLL tuning system. A DC-DC converter circuit is built-in in the
FQ1216AME to synthesize the tuning voltage required, thus making the frontend a true 5V device.
The FQ1216AME/H-4 is biased for extreme sensitivity, so care has to be taken in large signal application.
Low band 48.25 to 158.00 MHz+
Mid band 160.00 to 442.00 MHz
High band 442.00 to 863.25 MHz
+ Can cover down to 45.75 MHz (Ch A for Ireland)

However we recommend customers have the choice to make their own setting based on their own
application. For example, for cable TV networks, the TOP has to be –4 dB or lower to prevent
intermodulation problems.

PROGRAMMING EXAMPLES
Example 1: To tune to Ch E21 (471.25 MHz) in high band
Fosc = 471.25 + 38.9 = 510.15 MHz
N = (510.15 MHz) / (62.5 kHz) = 1F E2 (Hexadecimal)
So DB1 = 1F H
and DB2 = E2 H
CB = 86H if CP is set to low or CB = C6H if CP is set to high
BB = 44H (because of high band selected)
AB = 00 H

LOADING OF I2C BUS
The FQ1216AME/ H-4 contains series impedances in the SCL and SDA lines : a total of R= 220 ohms
leading to the tuner part and R= 300 ohms leading to the IF demodulation part. See the diagram below. Both
lines also have capacitive loads of C= 22 pF max. Care must be taken to ensure that the total load on the bus
does not exceed that as mentioned in the brochure "The I
2
C-bus and how to use it".

AUDIO EMPHASIS
The audio de-emphasis (50 us) is set by the bits C5 and C6
C5=0 de-emphasis OFF
C5=1 de-emphasis ON
C6=1 50us
C6=0 75 us
De-emphasis should be switched off in L/L’ mode since it is not required for AM sound.
CVBS LOAD / TUNING VOLTAGE SUPPLY
A video buffer is built into the frontend to enable the unit to drive a 75 Ω load directly (e.g. into the SAA711x
directly). A DC-DC converter for providing the required tuning voltage supply is already built into the
FQ1216AME.
PIP APPLICATION
By connecting a 1K resistor to ground at pin 6 and a 2K2 resistor to ground at pin 11, the tuner and IF
addresses of the second (PIP) FQ1216AME module can be set to # C0 and # 84 respectively. In this way,
the address of the main frontend remains at # C2 and # 86.

SOLDERABILITY
The solderability of pins and mounting tags when
tested initially and after 16 hour steam ageing in
accordance with “IEC 60068-2-20”, test Ta, method
1 (solder bath 235°C for 2s), results in a wetted area
of 95%. No de-wetting will occur when soldered at
260°C for 5s.
RESISTANCE TO SOLDERING HEAT
The product will not be damaged when tested in
accordance with “IEC 60068-2-20”, test Tb, ,method
1A (solder bath 260°C for 10±1 s).
MASS
Approximately 24g.
PACKAGING INFO

ROBUSTNESS OF PINS
The pins will not be damaged when tested in
accordance with “IEC 60068-2-21”:
• Test Ua1, tensile of 10N in axial direction
• Test Ua2, thrust of 4N in axial direction
PUNCHING PATTERN OF CHASSIS PCB
For optimum mounting of the tuner to a PCB,
the punching pattern is recommended (see
3139 149 0182).
The tuner must be mounted without clearance
between the tuner supporting surface and the
printed circuit board (PCB). When mounted in
this way, the tuner must be soldered to the
PCB. This can be achieved by pressing the
unit vertically onto the PCB during soldering.
