ES3880

ES3880 Video CD MPEG Processor Product Brief DESCRIPTION The ES3880 Video CD MPEG processor is ESS’ third generation highly integrated, optimal quality, and costeffective single chip solution for Video CD players. The ES3880 is the best quality available for both video and audio and easily passes the highest graded level for the China VCD standard. The ES3880 integrates MPEG-1 video and audio processing and a full-fledged MPEG system bit stream parser. The ES3880 can be used as a microcontroller to provide system control, while also performing such basic video operations as arbitrary scaling and video filtering. The MPEG-1 system layer bitstream is decoded at up to 9 Mb/s at Standard Intermediate Format (SIF) resolution with a picture rate of 30 frames per second. Two channels of MPEG-1 Layer 1 or Layer 2 audio are decoded simultaneously. The ES3880 supports SmartScale advanced scaling techniques, along with SmartStream for audio and video error concealment, and SmartZoom for enabling in/out zooming of a particular area of a still picture or movie. Additional features include DiscScan, TrackScan, QuickScan, OnScreen-Display (OSD), Karaoke, Playback Control (PBC) for Video CD 2.0, and entertainment game software. System control and house-keeping functions (keypad and remote control) are also provided. The ES3880 can be implemented with the ES3883 Video CD Video Encoder, which integrates most of the analog discrete components required for a Video CD player. Figure 1 shows a typ...
