VCC
The above circuit shows the additional components that will be used in a typical ZLNB254 application operating at a
Vcc of 5V and detecting 22kHz tones/tone bursts. The transistors Q1 and Q2 are not required for the ZLNB254
operation, they demonstrate how a DiSEqC 2.X (2 way communication) could be achieved.
The two detectors of the ZLNB254 are well matched to each other but thresholds of the tone detectors are dependent
on Vcc. The table below shows the recommended external input resistor (R1/R3 in above diagram) values needed to
meet the guaranteed threshold levels for a range of supply voltages.
