Intel's i750. video processor consists of two highly integrated VLSI components for implementing high-performance/low-cost DVI. multimedia video subsystems. The i750 video processor creates highly dynamic video displays featuring full-screen, full-motion video, video stills, video special effects, fast graphics and text.
The pixel processor (82750PB) is a programmable video rate DSP that supports a wide range of compression and other videographics algorithms via an on-chip microcode instruction RAM. The programmable display processor (82750DB) reads bit maps from video RAM, provides final decompression of YUV (video format) bit maps and, for lowest system cost, includes an on-chip color look-up table and triple 8-bit DAC. Both chips contain software controlled special purpose hardware to accelerate frequently used videographics operations, such as filtering and statistical decoding.
The i750 video processor is especially well suited to providing full multimedia and image processing capability in personal computer, workstation, and imbedded applications. Examples include point of sale terminals, ATMs, home players, information kiosks, video arcade games and medical imaging.
Each component is packaged in a low-cost 132-pin plastic quad flat pack (PQFP) package and implemented in Intels 1.0 micron, high-speed CHMOS IV technology.
