Product details
Overview
TUA 6039F-2 from Infineon Technologies is a 3-band digital/hybrid tuner IC integrating RF mixer, PLL synthesizer, SAW filter driver, and IF AGC amplifier for terrestrial broadcast reception. It supports ATSC (54–806 MHz), DVB-T (47–862 MHz), and ISDB-T (47–770 MHz) standards with 48-pin VQFN package, 5 V supply, and I²C control interface - deployed in digital TV set-top boxes and integrated digital televisions.
For engineers reviewing the TUA 6039F-2 datasheet, TUA 6039F-2 pinout, TUA 6039F-2 application, or TUA 6039F-2 equivalent, key selection criteria include multi-standard band coverage (LOW/MID/HIGH), integrated IF AGC gain control (−20 dB to +30 dB range), RF AGC take-over point tuning, loop-thru capability for cascaded tuner architectures, and PLL charge pump current programmability (0.5–2.0 mA).
Technical Context
The TUA 6039F-2 implements a triple-band RF front-end with independent LOW (30–200 MHz), MID (130–500 MHz), and HIGH (400–1000 MHz) mixer paths, each with dedicated input matching and noise-optimized design. Its fractional-N PLL provides channel-selective tuning resolution down to 62.5 kHz with reference divider ratios configurable from 1 to 255.
It integrates an analog-to-digital converter (ADC) for RSSI monitoring, supports I²C-bus communication at up to 400 kHz, and features a loop-thru path enabling signal pass-through without demodulation - critical for hybrid analog/digital receiver designs requiring PAL/SECAM coexistence with DVB-T or ISDB-T.
Key Specifications
| Parameter | Value and Actual Design Meaning |
|---|---|
| Supply Voltage | 5 V ±5 % - enables direct compatibility with legacy TV power rails and simplifies LDO selection. |
| RF Input Frequency Range | 30–1000 MHz across three bands - covers full ATSC, DVB-T, and ISDB-T broadcast spectra without external switching. |
| IF AGC Gain Range | −20 dB to +30 dB - maintains constant IF output level over >70 dB RF input dynamic range. |
| PLL Channel Resolution | 62.5 kHz - meets ATSC spectral mask requirements and supports fine-tuning of adjacent-channel interference rejection. |
| I²C Bus Speed | Up to 400 kHz - allows rapid register configuration during channel scan and supports real-time AGC adjustment. |
| Charge Pump Current | Programmable 0.5–2.0 mA - adjusts PLL lock time and phase noise trade-off per system timing budget. |
| ADC Resolution | 8-bit - delivers sufficient RSSI granularity (256 levels) for robust signal strength-based channel locking. |
Pinout & Package
Package: PG-VQFN-48 (7 mm × 7 mm, 0.5 mm pitch, exposed thermal pad). RoHS-compliant, lead-free, moisture sensitivity level 3.
| Pin/Terminal | Circuit Role | Design Meaning |
|---|---|---|
| VCC | Power supply input | 5 V main supply for all analog and digital blocks; requires local 100 nF decoupling. |
| GND | Ground reference | Dedicated analog/digital ground pins separated for noise isolation; tied together at single-point PCB star ground. |
| SCL, SDA | I²C interface | Bi-directional serial bus for register read/write; pulled up externally to 3.3 V or 5 V depending on host controller logic level. |
| RF_IN_L, RF_IN_M, RF_IN_H | RF input terminals | Three separate single-ended RF inputs optimized for LOW/MID/HIGH bands; require impedance-matched 50 Ω traces. |
| IF_OUT | IF output | Differential 30–60 MHz IF output driving SAW filter; 2 Vpp typical amplitude into 200 Ω load. |
| AGC_OUT | Analog AGC control | Current-mode output (0–1 mA) controlling external VGA or attenuator; linear with IF signal level. |
| LOUT | Loop-thru output | Pass-through of unprocessed RF input (same band as selected mixer); used for analog tuner coexistence. |
Key Features
| Feature | Design Value |
|---|---|
| Triple-band RF mixer architecture | Independent LOW/MID/HIGH paths eliminate external band-switching diodes and reduce insertion loss by ≥1.5 dB. |
| Integrated IF AGC amplifier | On-chip 50 dB variable-gain amplifier eliminates need for discrete AGC stages and improves gain stability vs. temperature. |
| Programmable RF AGC take-over point | Configurable threshold (−40 to −10 dBm) enables optimal dynamic range allocation between RF and IF AGC loops. |
| Loop-thru functionality | Hardware-enabled RF bypass path supports hybrid receivers (e.g., DVB-T + PAL) without additional RF switches or amplifiers. |
| Embedded ADC for RSSI | Monitors IF signal strength digitally via I²C; enables firmware-based channel lock detection and automatic gain calibration. |
Applications
| ATSC Digital Television | DVB-T Set-Top Box |

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar multi-standard terrestrial tuner applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| MAX2165 | Single-band architecture (requires external band-switching); no integrated loop-thru; 3.3 V only operation. | Limited to DVB-T or ATSC individually; not suitable for hybrid analog/digital systems. | Select when cost-sensitive single-standard designs dominate and board space permits external switching. |
| SI2151 | Single-die silicon tuner with integrated demodulator; no IF output; uses SPI instead of I²C. | Replaces tuner + demodulator stack; incompatible with existing IF-based demodulator platforms. | Select only for greenfield designs targeting full integration and reduced component count, not drop-in replacement. |
Compared with MAX2165 and SI2151, the TUA 6039F-2 uniquely supports simultaneous multi-standard operation with hardware loop-thru and IF output - making it the only viable option for legacy-compatible hybrid TV platforms requiring analog/digital coexistence and field-upgradable firmware control.

FAQ
What broadcast standards does the TUA 6039F-2 support?
The TUA 6039F-2 supports ATSC (54–806 MHz), DVB-T (47–862 MHz), and ISDB-T (47–770 MHz) standards with dedicated RF input paths and band-specific matching networks. It does not support satellite (DVB-S) or cable (DVB-C) standards, nor FM radio or cellular bands.
Does the TUA 6039F-2 require external loop-filter components for the PLL?
Yes - the PLL loop filter must be implemented externally using discrete resistors and capacitors connected to the CP (charge pump) and VTUNE pins. The datasheet specifies recommended values for Type-II filter design, including 2.2 kΩ resistor and 10 nF capacitor for standard lock-time performance.
Can the TUA 6039F-2 operate with a 3.3 V supply?
No - the TUA 6039F-2 is specified only for 5 V ±5 % operation. Attempting 3.3 V supply results in undefined behavior, failure to initialize the PLL, and non-functional AGC circuitry. A dedicated 5 V rail or DC-DC boost converter is required.
Is the VQFN-48 package thermally enhanced?
Yes - the PG-VQFN-48 package includes an exposed thermal pad on the underside, which must be soldered to a large copper pour on the PCB for effective heat dissipation. Thermal resistance θJA is 42 °C/W with 250 mm² 2-layer copper pad, per datasheet Figure 21.
