STMicroelectronics LNBH23L LNB Supply and Control IC Datasheet
The LNBH23L is a monolithic voltage regulator and interface IC designed for analog and digital satellite receivers. It provides a complete solution for powering LNB down-converters and multi-switch boxes by generating 13V or 18V power supplies and 22kHz tone signaling. The device integrates a DC-DC step-up converter for efficient single 12V supply operation and includes an I2C interface for full control and diagnostics.

Does the board require external components?
No, it minimizes the number of external components required by being a simple and inexpensive integrated solution.
What protection features are included?
The board includes internal overload, over-temperature protection, and dynamic LNB short-circuit protection.
What is the function of the EXTM pin?
The EXTM pin is an analog input used to generate the 22 kHz tone superimposed to the VoRX DC output voltage.
How is the I2C address selected?
The I2C address is selected by setting the voltage level of the dedicated ADDR pin.
