Quadrature demodulator TDA8040T
FEATURES
• +5 V supply voltage
• Bandgap internal reference voltage
• Low crosstalk between I (in-phase) and Q (quadrature)
channel outputs
• High operating input sensitivity
• High Carrier-to-Noise Ratio (CNR) of the VCO.
It has been designed to operate in conjunction with the
TDA8041H to provide a complete QPSK demodulator.
The design of this circuit has been optimized to provide the
best quadrature accuracy necessary for digital receiver
applications and particularly for digital television.
The TDA8040T includes two matched mixers, an
RF amplifier, a symmetrical Voltage Controlled Oscillator
(VCO), a frequency divider and two matched amplifiers.
Two external filters are required for the baseband filtering.
APPLICATIONS
• Quadrature Phase Shift Keying (QPSK) demodulation.
The VCO requires an external LC tank circuit with two
varicap diodes. This oscillator operates at twice the
IF carrier frequency and can be used in a carrier recovery
AFC loop.
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The TDA8040T is a monolitic bipolar IC dedicated for
quadrature demodulation.

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
The QPSK modulated RF signal is applied at the input of a
high gain RF amplifier. The amplified signal is then mixed
in a pair of mixers with two LO signals, which are
90 degrees out of phase, to produce the in-phase (I) and
quadrature (Q) signals. These two signals are separately
buffered to drive the external low-pass filters used for the
baseband filtering. The I and Q signals are then amplified
by two matched amplifiers designed to avoid crosstalk
between channels.
The VCO operates at twice the carrier frequency. Its output
signal is applied to a frequency divider (divide-by-2) to
produce the two LO signals which are 90 degrees out of
phase. The VCO is powered from the internal voltage
stabilizer to ensure good shift performance.
