"We pride ourselves on being the performance leader in silicon TV tuner technology," added Fontaine. "To ensure true quality of reception for DVB-H devices, we designed our Mobile MicroTuner to exceed the MBRAI performance specification. With our vast experience developing tuners that detect very small signals and simultaneously manage fading conditions, 0dB echos and large adjacent channels, we believe that the MBRAI specification is, at best, a bare minimum requirement for acceptable DVB-H TV reception."

"As with our recently introduced 3-in-1 MT2131 digital TV tuner, we understand the importance of driving performance beyond the specifications to deliver a superior user experience in real-world environments. Performance beyond the MBRAI specification helps to ensure the reception of continuous TV services under marginal reception conditions, while providing superior manufacturing yield to handset makers."
