Abstract
In an embodiment, a tuner circuit includes an inter-chip receiver circuit configurable to couple to a first inter-chip communication link to receive a first data stream and includes an analog-to-digital converter configured to convert a radio frequency signal into a digital version of the radio frequency signal. The tuner circuit further includes a digital signal processor coupled to the inter-chip receiver circuit and the analog-to-digital converter. The digital signal processor is configurable to generate an output signal related to at least one of the first data stream and the digital version of the radio frequency signal based on a selected operating mode.
