Hi Bob, cat /proc/cpuinfo give 4 processors. Did more test on running the same piece of code, which is basically a modified fm receiver. Usually I see nearly 100% loading on 1 of the 4 processors . But sometimes the load is spread on other processor (e.g. 100% load become 50% load on processo

Hi Carlos, According to the product brief at http://www.xceive.com/technology_XC2028.htm it has a SIF output, but without the complete datasheet, it is hard to say. You could probably check out with the authors of linux XC2028 tuner driver. Their contact are listed in the tuner-xc2028.c source c

Hi, The CX2388x sampling rate is 27 MHz and has a DC blocking capacitor input. You can try applying the ADSL direct to its input with the correct signal level. My concern is more to the noise and the resolution of the ADC which is currently 8 bit. Regards, Hew --- Patrick Strasser <[EMAIL PROTE

Hi, A year back, there was an idea of getting the TV card vendor to make CX23881 as a cheap ADC device. Any news on this ? With this, a crude and slow spectrum analyzer would probably be possible. Crude here means if there is a high spectrum peak, probably there is a radio transmission but if

Hi, I did some experiment on the CX tv card some time back. Looks like a continuous capture of 28MHz 8 bit data from the video ADC is possible, at least it seems like that. I tried capturing a sine wave and also raw composite TV signal. However I did not proceed further because the data looks noi
