A8285 and A8287
LNB Supply and Control Voltage Regulator
Features and Benefits
• LNB selection and standby function
• Provides up to 500 mA load current
• Two-wire serial I
2
C interface
• Built-in tone oscillator, factory-trimmed to 22 kHz;
facilitates DiSEqC™ 2.0 encoding
• Auxiliary modulation input
• 22 kHz tone detector facilitates DiSEqC™ decoding
(A8287 only)
• Tracking switch-mode power converter for lowest
dissipation
• LNB overcurrent protection and diagnostics
• Internal overtemperature protection
• LNB voltages (16 possible levels) compatible with all
common standards
Description
Intended for analog and digital satellite receivers, the LNB
(low noise block) converter regulator is a monolithic linear and
switching voltage regulator, specifically designed to provide
power and interface signals to an LNB downconverter, via
coaxial cable.
The device uses a 2-wire bidirectional serial interface,
compatible with the I
2
C (Inter-C bus) standard, that operates
up to 400 kHz.
The A8285 is supplied in a 16-lead plastic power SOIC with
internally fused leads for thermal dissipation. The A8287 is
supplied in a 24-lead plastic power SOIC with internally fused
leads. Both devices are also available in lead (Pb) free versions,
with 100% matte tine leadframe plating.
