DPTV™ SVP

The DPTV™ SVP is Trident's 4th generation TV-on-a-chip mixed-signal video processor product. It integrates the 4th generation TCD3™ 3D color comb video decoder, an object-based 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™ SVP integrates extra circuitry for enhancing video images, horizontal and vertical sharpness, spatial noise reduction, and black and white extension to provide a cinema-perfect™ picture. DPTV™ SVP uses Trident's patented Unified Memory Architecture (UMA), which allows both 3D comb 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™ SVP integrates wide ranges of video interfaces to support converging digital and analog TV chassis applications. Designed for LCD TVs, the DPTV™ SVP built-in LCD-BRITE™ feature improves the ordinary LCD panel response time. DPTV™ SVP 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™ SVP video processor(s) will benefit from many features while maintaining a price competitive advantage over the existing solution(s).
