Philippe Lambinet, executive vice president and general manager of home entertainment equipment and display products at STMicroelectronics, said: "The STi7108 is the first product of STMicroelectronics' third-generation HD decoder chip, which will provide end users with stunning 3D HDTV. The visual experience, unprecedented CPU performance allows users to watch smooth network video. In addition, the configurable low-power architecture, coupled with low-power manufacturing processes, makes the STi7108's energy efficiency performance market leading."

The new STi7108's main processor features dual ST40-300 CPUs, 256K of L2 cache, processing performance of 2000DMIPS, and total processing performance of up to 4000DMIP, providing flexible support for demanding audiovisual, security and connectivity applications. The 3D graphics controller enables a new user interface that supports innovative technology applications such as the 3D Electronic Program Guide (EPG), which allows access to advanced web content through a set-top box to experience high-performance online games. The STi7108 is the market's first single-chip integrated set-top box chip with integrated 3D graphics control, Ethernet, USB and e-SATA interfaces for connection to Internet devices, digital video recording (DVR) memory or external flash or hard disk drives (HDD).

The STi7108 features an ARM® Mali-400TM graphics processor. This is the only embedded graphics processor that is compatible with the Khronos OpenGL ES 2.0 specification in HD resolution and delivers a stunning 3D viewing experience.

Lance Howarth, Executive Vice President and General Manager of Media Processors at ARM, said: "The STi7108 is the result of a broad collaboration between STMicroelectronics and ARM on high-performance graphics processor architecture. The ARM Mali-400 graphics processor takes the user experience to the next level. The level of STMicroelectronics provides irresistible 3D gaming and rich 1080p resolution 3D user interface, providing seamless graphics and video compositing for the next wave of network interactive services."

The STi7108 decoder supports industry-standard video formats, including H.264, MPEG2, VC-1 or WMV9 network video and MPEG4 part 2 format at 1080p 50/60 HD resolution, supporting both 1080i/720p picture-in-picture or mosaic formats. . The STi7108 decoder has a flexible memory interface option that provides dual 32/16-bit 1066MHz LMI DDR2/DDR3 memory interfaces.

The STi7108 can receive up to 6 transport stream inputs and output full-motion HD 3D TV signals via the HDMI 1.3 interface with HDCP copy protection. Content sharing is also available in next-generation Blu-ray and HD media players, according to the Digital Living Network Alliance (DLNA) standard.

In conjunction with other processors integrated within the chip, including an audio processing subsystem and 2D graphics processing system, the STi7108 offers significantly higher performance than existing mass-produced products, enabling multimedia value-added features for set-top box designers to ensure product differentiation in the marketplace. Provide more opportunities.

On March 23-25, 2010, STMicroelectronics demonstrated the STi7108 related solutions at CCBN 2010 in Beijing. The new product is scheduled to begin mass production in early 2010.
