Antenna signal processor TDA8725T
FEATURES
• 75 Ω antenna input stage
• 75 Ω VCR RF input stage
• 75 Ω VCR tuner output
• 75 Ω TV tuner output.
For PIP applications, the antenna input signal is split and
fed to the main TV tuner and the PIP tuner. Good signal
suppression between the two outputs enables good quality
of the main picture when the PIP tuner is in use.
For VCR applications, the antenna input signal is split and
then fed directly to the VCR tuner and the TV tuner after
being combined with the VCR - RF signal. Good signal
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The TDA8725T has been designed to split and combine
RF signals for Picture-In-Picture (PIP) and VCR
applications.
suppression between the two outputs enables good quality
pictures when the TV and VCR tuners are both operating.
Good signal suppression between the VCR input and the
antenna input reduces the amount of unwanted signal on
the antenna.
