Benefits Overview Zoran Corporation 1309 Kifer Road Sunnyvale, CA 94086-5305 Te l 408.523.6500 Fax 408.523.6501 .zoran. Zoran’s Vaddis 5A (ZR36748A) DVD decoder is targeted at entry level automotive DVD products. The Vaddis 5A is built upon the Vaddis IV-LC back-end decoder and integrates a Turbo 186 CPU, a flash/ ROM interface, an ATAPI interface, and several GPIOs for such tasks as front panel control and remote control input processing. This integration further reduces the system cost through ponent reduction and by minimizing PCB size. The ZR36748A includes progressive scan analog video output, support for DVD-RW, DVD-RAM, and DVD+RW playback, and WMA decoding. The ponent integration bined with the superior back-end functionality makes the ZR36748A the ideal choice for automotive DVD players. TURBO 186 CPU, FLASH INTERFACE, ATAPI AND GPIOs The traditional architecture of having separate CPU and back-end decoders is simplified by Vaddis 5A integratiion of both. The Turbo 186 CPU core architecture provides interrupt DMA & UART services, is superior in performance to a standard 186 processor, and supports execution of large programs. The system software is stored on external flash or ROM and is accessed via the flash/ROM interface. Peripherals such as USB controllers can be connected to the flash/ROM interface for open-system designs. The ATAPI interface allows for a glueless connection to several drives, yet the Vaddis 5A still includes A/V and I2S interfaces for non-ATAPI solutions. The GPIOs can be used to control front panels, including inputs via remote control, or other devices per a system's needs.
