Current Digital Media Products:

We have been developing products for other digital media applications, such as set top boxes and progressive television sets since 1999. The DPTV market in particular has begun to emerge as a high volume market for these products. Our DPTV products are designed to optimize and enhance video quality for various display devices, such as Cathode Ray Television (“CRTTV”), Liquid Crystal Display Television (“LCDTV”), Plasma Display Panel (“PDP”), Projection TV, Liquid Crystal Display projection.

DPTV™3D. DPTV™3D integrates an advanced 3-D digital comb video decoder for NTSC, PAL, and SECAM formats. Based on Trident's patented proprietary Unified Memory Architecture (UMA), DPTV™-3D digital comb video decoder does not require extra frame buffers for performing 3D comb filtering. With film-mode recovery, DPTV™-3D can accurately detect the frame rates of incoming video sources, and then correctly restore the video source to the original film mode sequences in play back. The motion adaptive de-interlacing and edge-smoothing feature of the DPTV™-3D further refines the video display quality. The DPTV™ chip enables a SDTV signal to display in Picture-In-Picture mode, Picture-Out-Picture mode, and 16:9 or 4:3 aspect ratio modes. DPTV™-3D supports non-linear scaling in panorama mode to ensure the most natural picture aspect ratio for the viewers. DPTV™-3D's integrated 3-D digital comb video decoder has a built-in VBI circuit for closed captioning and V-chip for parental control that is EIA 608 compliant. Furthermore, DPTV™-3D's graphic-based On-Screen Display provides the most user-friendly and graphic-oriented TV menu control interface.

DPTV™MV. DPTVTMMV is a derivative of DPTV3DP. It has all the features of DPTV-3D, except that DPTVTMMV’s integrative video decoder is 2D comb filter video decoder. The DPTV™MV is the main component in the premier TV chipset solution on the market. Designed for maximum system design flexibility, users of Trident's single chip DPTVTM Video Processor(s) will benefit from one of the most feature rich devices available while maintaining a price competitive advantage over the existing solution(s). The DPTVTM-MV converts today's analog TV into an advanced progressive TV quality. Decoded HDTV digital video streams can be formatted to different output display modes by DPTV. Trident's DPTVTM product family propels the corporate mission of Digital Media For The Masses by delivering tomorrow's digital media technology to today's consumer.

DPTV™3DPRO. The DPTV™3DPRO is Trident's third generation DPTV single-chip mixed-signal video processor product. It integrates a high performance, multi-region 3D digital comb video decoder, a motion and edge adaptive de-interlacer with film mode recovery, scan rate and frequency conversion circuitries, and a graphical-based OSD for full support of today's premier digital TV applications. DPTV™3DPRO uses Trident's patented Unified Memory Architecture (UMA), which allows both 3D comb filter video decoding and video enhancement processing to share the same frame buffer memory made up of high-speed and cost-effective PC graphic memory. Designed for maximum system design flexibility, DPTV™3DPRO integrates all video interfaces to support hybrid digital and analog TV chassis applications. DPTV™3DPRO is ideal for applications in Digital TVs, Plasma TVs, LCD TVs, and Set-top boxes, where high precision video processing and scan rate frequency conversion are required. The users of Trident's single chip DPTV™ video processor(s) will benefit from many features available while maintaining a price competitive advantage over the existing solution(s).

PANELTV™3DPRO. The PANELTV™3DPRO is Trident's third generation DPTV single-chip mixed-signal video processor product. It integrates a high performance, multi-region 3D digital comb video decoder, a motion and edge adaptive de-interlacer with film mode recovery, scan rate and frequency conversion circuitries, and a graphical-based OSD for full support of today's premier digital TV applications. PANELTV™3DPRO uses Trident's patented Unified Memory Architecture (UMA), which allows both 3D comb filter video decoding and video enhancement processing to share the same frame buffer memory made up of high-speed and cost-effective PC graphic memory. Designed for maximum system design flexibility, PANELTV™3DPRO integrates all video interfaces to support hybrid digital and analog TV chassis applications. The PANELTV™3DPRO uses a 320-pin BGA package allowing multiple video data input and output configurations. PANELTV™3DPRO is ideal for applications in Digital TVs, Plasma TVs, LCD TVs, and Set-top boxes, where high precision video processing and scan rate frequency conversion are required. The users of Trident's single chip DPTV™ video processor(s) will benefit from many features available while maintaining a price competitive advantage over the existing solution(s).

PANELPRO™-MM. The PanelPro-MM is an advanced high-quality controller chip that designed with an external CPU for maximum system design flexibility, users of Trident's single chip PanelPro-MM Video Processor will benefit from one of the most feature rich devices available while maintaining a price competitive advantage over the existing solution(s). The PanelPro-MM integrates - Clamping, pre-amp, ADC, sync separator, scaling engine, and external SDRAM/SGRAM interface - to deliver a high quality, high integration controller for the mainstream LCD monitors with dual (VGA analog and digital) interfaces plus video inputs up to D4. The chip handles dual 24-bit digital RGB port, SYNC input, and separated 8-bit /16-bit digital port for video decoder connection.
