Sigma Designs highly integrated SMP8654 media processors will be used to power Celrun¡¯s
TD-1100 STB which has been selected by telecom provider LG Dacom to be deployed
throughout Korea.
As part of this collaboration, Sigma¡¯s chips have been integrated into Celrun¡¯s
TD-1100 set-top box and will support real-time
IPTV streaming along with VOD services.
Celrun¡¯s TD-1100 set-top box, powered by Sigma¡¯s
SMP8654 media processors, supports multicasting,
VOD functionality and digital rights management requirements.
The solution handles multi-task performance by processing multiple streams
of content in tandem at speeds up to 20 Mbps and advanced encryption
technology for enhanced copyright protection.
Sigma¡¯s SMP8654: The Next Generation IPTV SoC Solution
Sigma¡¯s SMP8654 media processor integrates a complete
complement of next-generation capabilities for a single-chip
system-on-chip solution with powerful multimedia processing,
robust content security system, multiple on-chip CPUs and a full
complement of system peripherals. Its combination of on-chip
processors and memory controllers yields an impressive 50%
increase in overall performance to provide the headroom needed for
next generation IPTV service features.
At the same time, taking advantage of the latest memory
components and integrated peripherals,
the SMP8654 can reduce sub-system cost by around 30 percent
compared to its predecessor, the industry leading SMP8634.
From a media processing standpoint, the SMP8654 offers a full
complement of advanced decoder engines with high definition video
decoding, including H.264 (MPEG-4 part 10), Windows Media Video 9, VC-1, MPEG-2 and MPEG-4
(part 2) and the new AVS standard. High-performance
graphics acceleration, multi-standard audio decoding,
advanced display processing capabilities and HDMI 1.3 output round out
its multimedia core. Powerful content security is ensured through
a dedicated secure processor, on-chip flash memory and a range of digital
rights management engines for high-speed payload decryption.
The SMP8654 also features a full complement of system peripherals,
including a dual Gigabit Ethernet controller, dual USB 2.0 controller,
NAND flash controller, IR controller and SATA controller.
