Overview: LSI Logic DiMeNsion 8652
™ HDD/DVD Recorder Processor OVERVIEW
The DiMeNsion-2 is the second generation family of DVD recorder processor products based on the DoMiNo™ architecture. The DiMeNsion-2 is intended for demanding, yet cost-sensitive, A/V codec applications in consumer electronics products. A true system-on-a-chip solution, the DiMeNsion-8652 (DMN-8652) empowers dual-drive products while reducing cost, design plexity, power consumption and time-to-market. The DMN-8652 enables consumer electronics manufacturers to offer a category of products that leverages the flexibility provided by the bination of hard disk and optical disk drives. The DMN-8652 accepts video from broadcast TV and other analog video sources and presses and formats the video for storage on hard disk, or on DVD discs in industry-standard recordable formats (DVD-RAM, DVD-RW/R, DVD+RW/R). It permits control of DV camcorders connected via FireWire® using the AV/C protocol, and transcodes DV-25 video for storage on hard disk or DVD. The DMN-8652 supports simultaneous play back of video from hard disk or DVD, and a range of background copying operations (including dubbing and transrating) between the hard disk and optical drives. The DMN-8652 offers DoMiNoFX™ technologies – industry-leading pre- and postprocessing of video to create a visibly superior viewing experience. LSI Logic’s proprietary TrueView™ Pro motion-pensated temporal filtering (MCTF) algorithm provides a cleaner picture through substantial noise reduction. This technique is coupled with the LSI Logic fifth-generation PerfectView® Pro pression technology for excellent video quality, even at very low bit rates. The LSI Logic TrueScan™ Pro motion-pensated de-interlacing (MCDI) then recreates clear images on progressive scan displays through the elimination of video blurring in moving scenes.
