TDA8844 Datasheet – DIP 56Pin, TV Processor
I2C-bus controlled PAL/NTSC/SECAM TV processors
TDA8844 overview
The TDA8844 is an I2C-bus controlled PAL/NTSC/SECAM TV processors made by Philips Electronics - NXP, supplied in a DIP 56Pin package. The absolute maximum ratings table on this page lists the 7 limits from the manufacturer's datasheet that must not be exceeded. This page brings together the TDA8844 pinout and maximum ratings, with the full datasheet PDF to preview below or download.
The various versions of the TDA 884X/5X series are I2C-bus controlled single chip TV processors which are intended to be applied in PAL, NTSC, PAL/NTSC and multi-standard television receivers. The N2 version is pin and application compatible with the N1 version, however, a new feature has been added which makes the N2 more attractive. The IF PLL demodulator has been replaced by an alignment-free IF PLL demodulator with internal VCO (no tuned circuit required). The setting of the various frequencies (33.4, 33.9, 38, 38.9, 45,75 and 58.75 MHz) can be made via the I2C-bus. Because of this difference the N2 version is compatible with the N1, however, N1 devices cannot be used in an optimizer N2 application.
