This talk will discuss the evolution of Broadcom’s integrated broadband RF technology from our first standalone CATV tuner (BCM3415 in 0.35m CMOS) through System-on-Chip embedded zero-IF tuners to our latest technology direction: direct-sampled RF transceivers in 40nm with digital channelization and digital correction of analog non-idealities. There will also be an overview of the consumer applications that are
served by this technology.
