(USR, Chicago, Illinois) and implemented with a software-programmable digital signal See MODEMS on page 2 What is x2? x2 is a higher speed data communications technology, developed by U.S. Robotics, to take advantage of the changes in today's network systems. It is an asymmetrical technology that allows 56-kbps data rates downstream and 28.8kbps upstream data rates when connecting to central site hubs. Several applications - Internet access, Bulletin Board Services and corporate networks - can take advantage of this higher data rate technology. 2 w INTEGRATION DECEMBER 1996 71 'A V Continued from page 1 multiple banks of memory required in the system into a single 16-Mbit synchronous DRAM. The first member of the 'AV7000 AV7000 series, the TMS320AV7100 TMS320AV7100, integrates a 16-bit/ 32-bit ARM7TTM RISC microprocessor core licensed from Advanced RISC Machines Ltd. The 'AV7100 AV7100 also integrates an advanced graphics accelerator, transport demultiplexer, conditional access and decryption modules, MPEG-2 video decoder, MPEG audio decoder, and NTSC/PAL video encoder with MacrovisionTM copy protection. The 'AV7100 AV7100's transport demultiplexer, conditional access and decryption are optimized for DSS system requirements.Another device, the TMS320AV7110 TMS320AV7110, integrates the same functions but has a DVB-optimized transport demultiplexer and can support exter- DS 00 P SET-TOP BOX The processor performance and graphics capabilities position the 'AV7000 AV7000 architecture well to support future data services currently evolving over the broadband networks. nally the multiple conditional access and decryption implementations used by different service providers. The architecture of the new processors includes features targeted at three distinct needs of DVB- and DSS-compliant digital set-top boxes: greater integration and memory consolidation for reduced system cost; higher CPU performance for more sophisticated applications software; and advanced graphics acceleration for a more intuitive user interface. In addition to integrating three chips into one, the 'AV7000 AV7000 architecture re- duces costs through its Traffic Interface Manager (TIM). This consolidates the memory requirements of each on-chip function into a single bank of memory, providing the flexibility to dynamically allocate system resources. The ARM7T processor's dual instruction set allows on-chip firmware to execute at the full 32-bit performance, while off-chip software can take advantage of the 16-bit mode to greatly reduce the application software memory size and still achieve excellent performance. The 40-MIPS 40-MIPS ARM processor not only supports the TIM and transport demultiplex functions, but also provides over half of its processing power for application software. Combined with on-chip graphics acceleration, the processing performance enables instantaneous response to users. The graphics accelerator supports 256 colors, transparency, blending, sizing and positioning in multiple graphics windows that can be displayed and overlapped simultaneously, providing a larger viewing area for the video and more intuitive access to information on-screen. The processor performance and graphics capabilities position the 'AV7000 AV7000 architecture well to support future data services currently evolving over the broadband networks. TMS320AV7100 TMS320AV7100 sampling is planned for December and TMS320AV7110 TMS320AV7110 sampling for February.

Suggested resale pricing of the TUSB2070 TUSB2070 in quantities of 1,000 is $5.00. Suggested resale pricing of the TUSB2040 TUSB2040 in quantities of 1,000 is $4.10. w TImeline Technology defines the next level of high-speed networking Every day, more than 300 million pages of text are sent over the Internet. Yet to many, those pages creep along at a snail's pace, getting bumped and stalled by network collisions and collapses. Demand for bandwidth - and speed - far exceeds supply. TI's 0.18-micron TImeline TechnologyTM, combined with the company's architectural approach to networking, will enable OEM partners to leap one to two generations ahead with high-speed internetworking products. These products will provide unlimited bandwidth at a much lower price point than today's products. With 0.18-micron TImeline Technology, the advanced traffic management capabilities and sophisticated network management functions required to support thousands-of-gigabits-per-second throughput will be implemented in silicon. These functions have historically been implemented in software. But the performance and sophistication of products that leverage the 0.18-micron technology will require a hardware solution made possible by TImeline integration. TI will use ASIC products, standard products and reusable engineering in the form of system-level core functions to provide these solutions. The TI 0.18-micron technology delivers other significant benefits for networking OEMs. Higher integration reduces the number of components per system, thereby reducing system costs. Power dissipation is significantly reduced. By eliminating heat sinks and other costly thermal management add-ons in the system, TI reduced overall cost. The benefits of the 0.18-micron technology also extend to managers and users of enterprise networks, addressing new network technologies and giving networking devices better feature/value sets, lower cost per port, smaller footprint and simpler management. Initial design engagements employing the TImeline Technology are currently in progress. Samples are scheduled to be available in 1997 with full production targeted for 1998. w 125 million transistors on a With single chip, we put onyour side. time Get to market first with new technology.
