Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
In one form, a multi-chip module for a multi-mode receiver includes an MCM substrate and first and second demodulator die. The MCM substrate has first and second satellite input ports, first and second terrestrial/cable input ports, and first and second transport stream ports. The first demodulator die has a satellite port coupled to the first satellite input port of the MCM substrate, a terrestrial/cable port coupled to the first terrestrial/cable input port of the MCM substrate, and first and second transport stream ports coupled to the first and second transport stream ports of the MCM substrate. The second demodulator die has a satellite port coupled to the second satellite input port of the MCM substrate, a terrestrial/cable port coupled to the second terrestrial/cable input port of the MCM substrate, and first and second transport stream ports coupled to the first and second transport stream ports of the MCM substrate.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A demodulator for a multi-mode receiver comprising: a demodulator die including: a first input port receiving a satellite input signal; a second input port receiving a terrestrial or cable input signal; a first transport stream port; a second transport stream port; a demodulator core responsive to an input from a selected one of said first input port and said second input port for providing a first transport stream signal to an output thereof; and…
