STI5500 Set Top Box / DVD Backend Decoder

The STi5500 is the first of a new generation of integrated multimedia decoder engines for set top box and DVD applications. It offers a high level of integration by reducing the complete set top box decoding chain from Transport Demux to PAL/NTSC Encoder onto one chip. At the same time it dramatically enhances CPU and Graphics performance, and cuts down tota.
