MN88472

The MN88472 is a DVB-T/DVB-T2/DVB-C demodulator chip manufactured by Panasonic.

I2C Adressing

The chips has 3 I2C addresses, one for each demodulator bank:

8 bit (7 bit)
0x38  (0x1c) - DVB-T2 (T2)
0x30  (0x18) - DVB-T  (T1)
0x34  (0x1a) - DVB-C  (C1)

Demod Initialization

  • Write init reg values for all 3 register banks (T2 T1 and C1) {bank,reg,value}

  • Prepare DVB-T bank for firmware upload
    • Write 0x20 to register 0xf0 in T1 bank
    • Write 0x03 to register 0xf5 in T1 bank (this most likely set the mcu to reset state)
  • Load firmware for demod
    • Write all firmware bytes to register 0xf6 to fill the mcu memory
  • Start demod firmware
    • Write 0x00 to register 0xf5 in T1 bank
  • Check parity
    • Read register 0xf8 in T1 bank, if byte 5 (0x10) is set the parity check failed.

Demod mcu

You can check if the firmware is running by reading register 0xf5.

  • If bit 0 is 0 it is running
  • If bit 0 is 1 it is not running

You can control the cpu by writing to the 0xf5 register:

  • write 0x03 to stop the cpu
  • write 0x00 to start the cpu

Demod probe

  • Read register 0xFF in T2 bank

The answer should be 0x02.

TS mode

How to set chip ts mode.

Parallel TS with fixed clock

  • Write 0x00 to register 0x08 in T2 bank
  • Write 0xE1 to register 0xD9 in T1 bank

Parallel TS with variable clock

  • Write 0x00 to register 0x08 in T2 bank
  • Write 0xE3 to register 0xD9 in T1 bank

Serial TS with variable clock

  • Write 0x1D to register 0x08 in T2 bank
  • Write 0xE3 to register 0xD9 in T1 bank

Lock

DVB-T2

  • Read register 0x92 in T2 bank.
  • If the low nibble in the result is >12 there is a lock

DVB-T

  • Read register 0x7F in T1 bank.
  • If the low nibble in the result is >8 there is a lock

DVB-C

  • Read register 0x84 in C1 bank.
  • If the low nibble in the result is >7 there is a lock

When lock is detected it means what the demod has: Signal, Carrier, Viterbi, Sync and Lock.

Lock 88473

DVB-C

  • Read register 0x85 in C1 bank
  • If bit 6 is set then read register 0x89 in C1 bank
  • If bit 1 is set then we have lock.

DVB-T

  • Read register 0x62 in T1 bank.
  • If bit 5 and 7 is set then
  • If the low nibble in the result is >8 there is a lock
