DSP806
806MHz Agile PLL SAW-Filtered Digital-Analog Channel Processor
The Pico Macom DSP806 is a frequency agile, microprocessor-controlled, professional
re-broadcast grade double-heterodyne channel processor that converts one 6MHz Digital
(ATSC, 8VSB, 64 QAM) or Analog (NTSC) channel to a different frequency without need
to demodulate and re-modulate the signal. Front panel push-button controls enable simple
input and output channel selection. The unit uses state-of-the-art high stability phase-
locked-loop circuitry for optimum data handling and channel relocation. The DSP806
provides a rear panel external IF loop allowing this unit to be used as a digital up-converter
or down-converter in CMTS systems. The Surface Acoustic Wave (SAW) IF filtering
provides highly selective frequency cut off at band edges for superior adjacent channel
performance even in the most crowded systems. The DSP806 unique broad input AGC
design delivers consistently high quality picture even at extremely low input levels. The
microprocessor's non-volatile memory preserves input and output channel identification
guaranteeing proper reset when power is restored. The DSP806 high frequency and
extremely high accuracy phase-locked loop oscillators enable the unit to meet the fre-
quency offset and stability requirements of FCC Docket 21006. Pico Macom backs up
this product with its industry leading 5-year limited warranty.
