More on LG’s MPH

Apparently the MPH In-band Mobile DTV system utilizes a “Mobile Microtuner ™ chip” from a company called (surprisingly, you might think), Microtune. Microtune are supplying the chipsets for the demo devices that LG are using at CES, including the mobile devices, and navigation aids.
For those of you who are interested in the details:
“Microtune’s Mobile MicroTuner MT2260, part of the Company’s suite of products for mobile and portable TV applications, is a multi-band, single-chip tuner engineered for high performance, high integration, and low power. Designed with a patent-pending architecture and ClearTune™ filtering technology, the tuner is implemented in an advanced silicon-germanium (SiGe) process.
The architecture features a shared mixer and filter structure and is single-ended to reduce components, cost and space. The MT2260 tuner is designed to deliver high sensitivity and low distortion for excellent performance and picture quality, even under the most difficult reception conditions.”
Hmmm, nice.
