Teardown: Ku Band Satellite TV LNB

In this video, I take a detailed look inside a Ku-Band Low Noise Block (LNB), a key component used with satellite dishes to receive broadcast satellite TV signals. These devices are responsible for amplifying and downconverting high-frequency satellite signals-typically in the 10.7 to 12.75 GHz range-into lower intermediate frequencies (IF) that can be easily processed by standard satellite receivers. I briefly walk through the functional block diagram of the RF signal path, explaining how components like the low-noise amplifier (LNA), local oscillator, and mixer work together to make signal reception possible. Additionally, I show close-up images of the internal printed circuit board (PCB), highlighting critical components and design features that enable the LNB's performance. Whether you're a hobbyist, technician, or simply curious about how satellite TV reception works, this teardown provides a clear and insightful overview.
