Description

The FLI8548H offers high integration for advanced applications of Picture-in-Picture (PIP)

and Picture-by-Picture (PBP) with an integrated video decoder, a 3D comb filter, and an

HDMI receiver. Additionally, the FLI8548H can power up to 1080p displays with the proven

DCDi Cinema technology.

Special performance features such as the Faroudja DCDi Cinema video format converter,

10-bit performance in the device, and the upgraded Advanced Color Management (ACM-

3D) provide exceptional video quality. This video quality level that was exclusive to Faroudja

Home Theater Systems is now available in a single-chip solution.

The FLI8548H comprises an integrated Analog Front-End (AFE) that includes triple ADCs

and a cross-point switch. The flexible AFE ensures simple PCB design with direct

connections to TV tuners and input video connectors. Thus, the FLI8548H, for a single LCD

TV chassis, is able to support worldwide standards. Regional variation requirements are

reduced to connectors and firmware changes.

The integrated VBI dataslicer and decoder eliminate the need for external components

resulting in significant cost reduction. The FLI8548H supports many worldwide VBI

standards for applications of Teletext, Closed Captioning, V-Chip, and other VBI services.

The FLI8548H can also be used as part of a digital TV solution that requires the proven

Faroudja DCDi Cinema video performance.

An embedded microprocessor and a versatile OSD in a single device will facilitate rapid

development of a reliable and attractive product. The FLI8548H utilizes the common Cortez

family firmware making migration easy and effortless across different hardware platforms

within this family.
