DViCO FusionHDTV5 USB Gold

A hybrid ATSC USB 2.0 device from DViCO.

Support for the digital functionality of this USB box was added to the 2.6.16 kernel.¹

Overview/Features

It belongs to the class of USB devices codenamed Bluebird.

• S-Video, Composite and audio inputs ¹
• dipole antenna
• remote control

Components Used

It features the following components:

• LG Innotek TDVS-H064F (NIM)
  • Infineon TUA6034 (tuner)
  • Philips TDA9887 (analog IF demodulator)
  • LG DT3303 (digital demodulator)
• Conexant CX25843 (A/V decoder)
• Cirrus Logic/Crystal 533KZ (audio ADC) ²
• Cypress CY7C68013A (FX2LP) (USB 2.0 bridge)

• Note 1: While the hardware supports analog functionality, the driver currently lacks support for these features (support is forthcoming).
• Note 2: Why a 3rd party audio ADC was included in the design is a curious question, given that the Conexant CX25843 is indeed capable of handling audio input sources.
