companion chip for digital set-top box designs STB130X0 a/v transport/decoders complement ibm set-top box (stb) controllers, enabling manufacturers to offer a wider range of products support applications incorporat- ing digital video recording on a hard drive or vcr simplify the design of applica- tions requiring recording/playing of two independent streams help our customers: ? improve time-to-market ? reduce software development cycle powerful companion chips extend stb capabilities ibm STB130X0 digital stb companion chips integrate a transport/demultiplexing function and audio/video decoders on a single chip. an advanced companion chip to be used with members of ibms family of stb controllers, these devices allow designers to architect a range of emerging applications, including those incorporat- ing digital video recording on an external hard drive. new members of ibms family of digital audio/video decoders, these two ad- vanced chips the ibm stb13000 and the ibm stb13010 feature an integrated transport stream demultiplexer, mpeg-2 video decoder, mpeg-2 audio decoder highlights and sdram interface. the chips can decode mpeg-2 main profile at main level (mp @ ml) video and mpeg-2 layer i & ii (cd quality) audio. the ibm stb13010 offers the added ability to decode dolby ? digital audio*. by integrating these features on a single chip, the decoders enable complex designs while helping to reduce design time. audio/video decoding features support robust des igns ibm STB130X0 decoders deliver the high- quality video and sound that consumers expect from advanced digital television applications. additionally, decoder features support robust designs. for example, a multi-plane on-screen display (osd) can provide a richer interactive user interface. the on-chip sdram memory interface, supporting 4-mb and 8-mb memory configurations, enables more flexible, cost-effective designs. the built-in pll generates the audio clock for audio and video synchronization. used in conjunction with ibm stb controllers, STB130X0 decoders provide the additional, separately controllable decoder needed to support multi- function stb applications. these include playing one stream on a tv while recording another on a vcr, picture-in- picture support, or playing one stream on a tv while storing another encoded stream on a hard drive. STB130X0 single-chip decoders enable full-function stb designs.
