CX24142 Single-Chip FTA and FTA-CI Set-Top Box System Solution
The CX24142 ICs are the latest in a family of highly integrated, cost effective solutions that enable next generation digital TV applications. Our single-chip DVB compliant device has been optimized to provide a cost-effective solution for non-interactive satellite and terrestrial Free-To-Air (FTA) and Free-To-Air Common Interface (FTA-CI) based services. FTA TV is a simple way to get broadcast digital quality TV signals over traditional analog TV - without the monthly subscription charges. The CX24142 IC family includes an MPEG-2 A/V decoder, transport processor, 32-bit RISC CPU, hardware 2D graphics accelerator, TV encoder, QPSK demodulator, video/graphics display controller, and support for dual DVB-CI modules. To complete a DVB-S system hardware design, only a tuner, audio DAC, SDRAM and flash memory ICs are required. This high level of integration results in a very low-cost system bill-of-materials for worldwide FTA and FTA-CI set-top box markets.
Features
* MPEG-2/DVB broadcast service decoder for DVB-S/T/C markets
* Integrated 1-45 MSps/sec QPSK/ BPSK demodulator/FEC with DiSEqC 2.x signaling support (CX24142/3 only)
* 32-bit 146 MIPS 133MHz ARM9 CPU with 16KB I & D caches
* Dual-slot Common Interface support (CX24142/6 only)
* 16-bit unified memory controller architecture
* Integrated NTSC/PAL/SECAM TV encoder supporting simultaneous CVBS, Y/C & RGB/YPrPb analog video output signals
* Complete V.22 software modem available
