ADVANCED DBS DUAL CHANNEL VOLTAGE AND TONE DETECTOR
Summary
The ZLNB2015 is a dual channel polarisation (voltage) and band select (tone) detector IC, primarily for satellite applications such
as Low Noise Blocks (LNBs) and satellite distribution systems. An optimised design provides a low supply current and a wide
operating voltage whilst increasing performance and reliability. The ZLNB2015 offers excellent interference rejection with
minimal application cost and packaged in the 3x3mm QFN it provides a very small solution.
Features
• Two high accuracy polarisation voltage detection meeting
the most stringent market needs
• Two robust, interference tolerant 22kHz tone detection
(without external signal filtering)
• “No Receiver” detect function for power saving and
isolation control
• Low quiescent supply current, 2mA typical
• Wide operating supply voltage 3V to 8V
• Low external component count minimises application
cost
• True and inverted outputs to support popular multiplexer
ICs
Pin Assignments
Application
• Twin Universal LNBs
• Quad Universal LNBs
• Multi Output LNBs
• Satellite Multi-Switches
