STB7100
Low-cost set-top box decoder chip
for MPEG-4 AVC and HD MPEG-2
DATA BRIEF
DESCRIPTION
Demonstrating its continued leadership in STB
ICs, STMicroelectronics introduces the first fully
integrated high-definition set-top box IC with an
advanced low-bit rate video decoder.
The STB7100 is a single-chip video decoder
supporting the H.264/AVC advanced video
decoding standard, Microsoft鈥檚 VC1 standard and
high definition MPEG2. As well as STBs, the
STB7100 can be used in DVD and automotive
applications.
The STB7100 demultiplexes, descrypts, decodes
and outputs HD and SD video streams with
associated multi-channel audio. A dual display
compositor provides mixing of graphics and video
with independent composition for TV/monitor and
VCR outputs. SATA and USB interfaces are
provided to enable low-cost connectivity to
hard-disk drives and low-cost system expansion.
