Jazz Process Chosen: SBC18 (0.18µm SiGe BiCMOS)

Product: RF-to-Baseband Silicon TV Tuner

Description: Xceive's single-chip silicon tuner replaces the traditional double conversion can tuners, providing a more reliable production environment, a higher level of integration, better video and audio performance, lower power consumption and up to 10x faster channel scanning than traditional conversion can tuners.

Target: With a universal TV standards-architecture, Xceive's RF-to-baseband TV tuner ICs eliminate the need for OEMs to maintain multiple tuner inventories to service a global market.

"The combination of Jazz's advanced 0.18 BiCMOS process with Xceive's high-performance silicon germanium tuner design, allows us to bring to market the industry's first universal, highly integrated RF-to-baseband TV tuner for OEMs worldwide. Xceive's all-standards single-chip TV tuner ICs, manufactured on Jazz's silicon germanium process, enable unprecedented size reduction and outstanding performance for advanced TV applications in a wide range of form factors - from mini-PCI cards and USB dongles to high-definition plasma TVs."
