LSI Logic DVxcel TM Advanced MPEG-2 Video and System Codec for Consumer Applications OVERVIEW The LSI Logic DVxcelTM MPEG-2 video codec is a high-quality, single-chip digital video processing solution that is ideal for consumer digital recordable products, including DVD recorders. In addition to encoding and decoding, LSI Logic DVxcel has the capability to simultaneously encode and decode MPEG-2 video, enabling low-cost digital video recorder (DVR) applications. LSI Logic DVxcel, the latest in the DVx family of codecs, is based on LSI Logic's fourth-generation video processor architecture. LSI KEY FEATURES: Logic DVxcel has been optimized, both in hardware design and * Real-time MPEG-2 ML@MP video functionality for high-quality, low-cost digital consumer recordable applications. Using LSI Logic's proven PerfectView(R) encoding and system encoding * Simultaneous encode and decode of MPEG-2 video streams algorithm, LSI Logic DVxcel delivers the highest-quality video with audio synchronization encoding of any consumer-based solution. * Single-pass, variable bit rate (VBR) and constant bit rate (CBR) encoding RF Video SDRAM TV Tuner NTSC/PAL Decoder Audio * Multiple, programmable LSI Logic 656 Video DVxcel NTSC/PAL 656 Video * On-chip program stream MPEG-2 Audio ADC 2ch CODEC PCM Audio Audio PCM Audio DAC 2ch MPEG Program Stream ATA/IDE EPROM FLASH Audio multiplexing of compressed or uncompressed audio * On-chip DVD-VR real-time Embedded Host Bus Interface horizontal resolutions Video Encoder Front Panel Host CPU read/write (RTRW) system level formatting * MPEG-2 ML@MP video and system decoding HDD SDRAM Remote Display/Keypad LSI Logic DVxcelTM Digital Video Recorder (DVR) System Block Diagram The Communications Company TM LSI Logic DVxcel TM MPEG-2 Video Codec DEVICE FEATURES: TARGET APPLICATIONS Optimized for embedded designs, LSI Logic DVxcel features the following hardware interfaces: * Flexible 16/32-bit host interface LSI Logic DVxcel offers significant design advantages for the following applications: Digital Video Recorder (DVR) * Host DMA target or primary 8-bit hardware I/O port for bitstream data transfers * Secondary 8-bit hardware port for bitstream transfers * Tertiary 8-bit hardware port for bitstream transfers * 8- or 10-bit ITU-656 video input port LSI Logic DVxcel can be the core of a low-cost DVR application that has the ability to pause, fast-forward, rewind, and instant-replay live broadcast television. LSI Logic DVxcel simultaneously encodes and decodes video while also ensuring audio/video synchronization. Coupled with an embedded processor, LSI Logic DVxcel can enable a two-chip solution to provide a complete digital video time-shifting application. * 8-bit ITU-656 video output port * Serial audio interfaces for audio capture and playback LSI Logic DVxcel is based around a 110 MHz Micro-SPARC(R) RISC core MicroSPARC RISC Core and includes special hardware to implement: Serial Motion * Video compression Video DSP Interface Estimator pre-processing 8 * Motion estimation and compensation * DCTs and IDCTs Video Audio Interface 8/10 4 16/32 * Variable-length encoding and decoding 4 64 Interface Secondary SDRAM BSIO Controller HOST Interface/ Primary BSIO Tertiary 8 8 BSIO * High-quality video scaling and 8 compositing LSI Logic DVxcelTM Internal Block Diagram 64 DVD/Optical Disc Recorder Coupled with a DVD decoder (such as the LSI Logic ZiVA-4), LSI Logic DVxcel can provide the MPEG-2 video and system encoder portions of a DVD/optical disc recorder. LSI Logic DVxcel's on-chip MPEG-2 program stream multiplexing and DVD-VR RTRW format generation provides a clean and efficient system design for DVD/optical recorders, while the DVD decoder ensures compatibility with playback of existing content. Personal TV Functions LSI Logic DVxcel's programmable architecture can enable advanced personal TV features. While encoding video, vertical blanking interval (VBI) data can be captured and decoded by the codec to provide additional digital content information such as closed caption data and electronic programming guide data.
