STMicroelectronics has added new devices to its latest range of set-top box system-on-chip ICs for high-definition terrestrial, cable, IP, Over-The-Top and satellite equipment.
Expanding ST’s offering of interactive digital video recorder (DVR) -capable solutions, the new STiH253full-featured digital video broadcast device integrates a single DVB-T2 demodulator for highly integrated terrestrial set-top box.
The STiH271EL, is perfectly suited for price-sensitive markets requiring basic zapper functionality without compromise in video performance.
ST’s chip family expands access to HD zappers, PVRs, Internet Protocol (IP) clients and dual-HD boxes supporting connected-TV services (Internet Protocol TV), information channels and Over-The-Top (OTT) video, gaming, catch-up TV and social networking. The new devices enrich ST’s existing line-up of SoCs for generic IP (STiH207), HD cable/terrestrial (STiH273), and HD satellite (STiH237, STiH239) set-top box applications. Pin and software compatibility throughout the family enables OEMs to optimize their design effort across multiple customer/operator cases.
The new additions in ST’s set-top box SoC portfolio – STiH253 and STiH271EL - are sampling now to lead customers, in 27 x 27mm and 23 x 23mm BGA packages.
