STPC CLIENT OVERVIEW
The STPC Client integrates a standard 5th
generation x86 core, a DRAM controller, a
graphics subsystem, a video pipeline, and
support logic including PCI, ISA, and IDE
controllers to provide a single Consumer
orientated PC compatible subsystem on a single
device.
The device is based on a tightly coupled Unified
Memory Architecture (UMA), sharing the same
memory array between the CPU main memory
and the graphics and video frame buffers.
Extra facilities are implemented to handle video
streams. Features include smooth scaling and
colour space conversion of the video input stream
and mixing of the video stream with non-video
data from the frame buffer. The chip also includes
anti-flicker filters to provide a stable, high-quality
Digital TV output.
The STPC Client is packaged in a 388 Plastic Ball
Grid Array (PBGA).
