LSI Logic Corporation, a leader in multimedia processing for the Digital Home, today announced that BBK AV & Entertainment Corp. (affiliated to BBK Electronics Corp.) has developed its latest line of full-featured, cost-effective DVD recorders by leveraging the LSI Logic DoMiNo(TM) 8602 (DMN-8602) DVD recorder system processor. BBK is ranked in the top three AV manufacturers in China and is at the forefront of driving the latest technologies.
"By leveraging the DMN-8602, we benefited from LSI Logic's expertise in approaching products from both a chip and system level," said Tony Chen, general manager of BBK AV Division. "We were able to streamline our product development cycle, reduce risk and get to market quickly with a cutting-edge solution."
The DMN-8602 leverages the industry-leading integration of the DoMiNo 8600 (DMN-8600), the industry's first single-chip DVD recorder solution. The DMN- 8602 further integrates an NTSC/PAL TV encoder and a USB controller, and requires only a single unified memory subsystem. The integration of these functions into a single chip reduces design complexity and provides system designers with a considerable savings on the overall bill of materials.
"The DVD recorder market is continuing to see strong growth," said Umesh Padval, executive vice president of the LSI Logic Consumer Products Division. "We have had a long-term relationship with BBK on VCD and DVD products over the last 10 years, and we are pleased that they have entered the DVD recorder market using our industry-leading DMN-8602."
The DMN-8602 features LSI Logic's Direct Digital Dub(TM) technology that simplifies the transfer of personal digital content from a camcorder to DVD over FireWire, with one-touch control via a single remote. Additional advantages include LSI Logic's proprietary pre- and post-processing technologies, TrueView(TM) Pro and TrueScan(TM) Pro. These motion compensation-based technologies provide advanced progressive scan output and impressive noise handling on analog inputs.
LSI Logic's Consumer Products Division provides innovative digital media processing and silicon solutions to industry-leading, worldwide consumer electronics manufacturers. With a complete line of cutting-edge products for DVD, DVR, EVD, video game, digital and HDTV, set-top box, and professional video production/broadcasting devices, LSI Logic delivers entertainment into and throughout the Digital Home.
