Product Summary
The BCM3421KM is a highly integrated, advanced direct conversion, single-chip silicon tuner. It integrates the global tuning function, including selectivity, and supports 64-QAM, 256-QAM, and 1024-QAM digital cable modem applications. The applications of the BCM3421KM are Cable modems, Cable gateways, Single-tuner set-top boxes, Non-battery voice cable modems. The device is specifically designed for use with Broadcom’s industry-leading single-chip cable modem devices. With a low BOM cost and a proven reference design, the BCM3421KM provides a better alternative to traditional can tuners. The BCM3421KM supports an IF output frequency range of 4 MHz, 4.5 MHz, and 5 MHz, enabling one device to support both DOCSIS and EuroDOCSIS standards.
