        I've been studying up on TV tuner circuits for various projects I'd
like to do around here. I haven't gotten into any chips that exist though for
help with this stuff. All I've seen is National's old linear data book. I was
looking for something like a chip that took the standard IF out of the
mechanical tuner, and fed back its AGC and AFT signals and put out baseband
video and audio. Anything like this? It is part of a chip in my acient
panasonic VCR, but there should be just a single part that does this? (I doubt
I could find a source for the panasonic custom chip).
Are there other chips for use in digital tuners? 

Any data books recomended for their standard video chips (ie. Motorola?)
