I popped the metal shield off the tuner and see a single IC. It's labeled Philips TSA5059T/03112001 (date code?) > The chip on the right hand side of the 878 could be the demodulator > (looks like a Winbond logo on it?) and the two chips above the 878 > look like some glue logic, maybe to control the LNB voltage/22KHz chip > (the 10 pin chip above the latter 2, next to all the capacitors) via > some pins of the GPIO port of the 878. The main IC on the PCB is a Conexant Fusion 878A. To the right of it is the Winbond W78E52F-24/101811302/300ACNA (demodulator?). The two ICs above the 878A are Philips 74HC2440. The IC next to the capacitors is an ST LNBP15SP. Is any of this info useful? Thanks, mike. -- Info: To unsubscribe send a mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe linux-dvb" as subject.
