L64733C/L64734 Tuner and
Satellite Receiver Chipset
Datasheet
The L64733C/734 chipset is designed for satellite broadcast digital TV. It
is compliant with the European digital video broadcast (DVB-S) standard,
as well as the technical specifications for DSS systems. The
L64733C/734 chipset forms a complete “L-band-to-bits” system.
A typical application of the L64733C/734 chipset is satellite digital TV
reception in accordance with the ETS 300 421 standard. Figure 1 shows
the L64733C/734 chipset satellite receiver implemented in a typical
satellite receiver set-top decoder.

The L64733C Tuner IC directly down-converts the satellite signal from
L-band to baseband; it includes an on-chip synthesizer. Using frequency
information programmed into its configuration registers, the L64734
Satellite Receiver generates control signals for the L64733C synthesizer.
The L64734 also controls the programming of the low-pass filters on the
