DescriptionFLI30436
1 Description
The FLI30436 chip offers high integration for advanced, dual-channel applications of
Picture-in-Picture (PIP) and Picture-by-Picture (PBP). Two video decoders with 3D comb
filters and two channels of DCDi processing provide the highest quality picture for a twochannel application. In addition, the FLI30436 can power up to 1080p/WUXGA displays.
True 10-bit performance throughout the device, Advanced Color Management (ACM-3D),
and DDR memory with picture data capacity of 10 bpp provide an exceptionally high level of
video quality. This exclusive level of video quality technology previously seen on Faroudja
Home Theater Systems is now available in a single-chip solution.
The FLI30436 also comprises an integrated Analog Front-End (AFE) that includes two Triple
ADCs, an integrated cross-point switch, and two Faroudja Intellicomb™ 3D comb filters. The
flexible AFE ensures simple PCB design with direct connections to TV tuners and input
video connectors. In essence, the FLI30436 is the only device needed for a single LCD TV
chassis supporting worldwide standards. For regional variations, only connector and
firmware changes are required.
The integrated VBI dataslicer and decoder remove the need for external components
resulting in significant cost reduction. The FLI30436 supports many worldwide VBI
standards for applications of Teletext, Closed Captioning, V-Chip, and other VBI services.
An embedded microprocessor and a versatile OSD in a single device will facilitate rapid
development of a reliable and attractive product. The FLI30436 utilizes the common Cortez
family firmware for easy and effortless migration across different hardware platforms within
this family.
