GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Zilog's Z86251 StarSight Data Base Engine (DBE) is
designed to process extracted data for the StarSight
on-screen programming guide.
For fast memory data manipulation, the Z86251 offers
segmented base registers. The device also features
DRAM memory control and refresh logic.
The Z86251 provides a number of important peripheral
functions, such as the IR Blaster to send command signals
to the VCR, and low-power management to avoid loss of
data.
The DBE is optimized to work with Zilog's Z89300 series of
TV controller devices to provide a cost-effective solution
for StarSight programming-guide data extraction and
display.
Notes:
All Signals with a preceding front slash, "/", are active Low,
e.g.: B//W (WORD is active Low); /B/W (BYTE is active Low,
