• Manufacturer Part Number: hsp50306
• Description: Digital Qpsk Demodulator
• Manufacturer: Intersil Corporation

The Block Diagram of the QPSK Demodulator is shown on
page 1. To demodulate the data, the I.F. samples are multi-
plied by sine and cosine samples from a numerically con-
trolled oscillator. The digital mixer outputs are then low pass
filtered to remove mixer products. The filtered data is then
equalized by a 4 tap equalizer (1 precursor, one reference tap,
and a 2 tap Decision Feedback Equalizer (DFE) to remove
distortion caused by multipath. The output of the equalizer is
differentially decoded and multiplexed into the output data
stream. The carrier tracking loop providing the L.O. for the dig-
ital mixer is a second order digital Costas loop with a tracking
bandwidth of ~10kHz. A sweep circuit searches the carrier
uncertainty using a triangle sweep algorithm during acquisi-
tion. A lock detector controls the sweep and indicates when
valid data is available. The recovered data rate clock is gener-
ated by another numerically controlled oscillator. The timing
recovery loop is a first order decision directed digital phase
locked with a loop bandwidth of

cuitry generates the AGC error signal by rectifying the I.F.
input samples and comparing them against a threshold. The
error signal is low if the signal magnitude is above the upper
threshold, high if the magnitude is below the lower limit.
Figure 1 shows the circuit of a typical demodulator
application. The typical Bit Error Rate (BER) performance is
shown in Figure 2 for both 4-bit and 6-bit quantized inputs.
The theoretical QPSK BER Performance Curve is provided for
reference. Note that the BER performance shown in Figure 2
includes a multipath distortion element at the input, in addition
to
representative of receive signal distortions found in cable data
links.
Table 1 details the BER, Acquisition and Delay Performance
Specifications of the HSP50306 QPSK demodulator chip,
based on an input that complies with the specifications
detailed in Table 2.
