L64108 Transport with Embedded CPU and Control
Overview
The L64108 combines a 32-bit 54 MHz RISC CPU, a programmable transport
demultiplexer, a DVB Descrambler, a DRAM controller and other peripherals
on a single chip. This versatile device interfaces to all of the other members of
the Integra™ 1100 set-top product family. This includes a serial or parallel
input from the L64724 satellite modem or the L64768 cable modem and an
output of multiplexed audio and video PES streams to the L64105 MPEG-2
A/V Decoder. The L64108 is suitable for worldwide use in DBS, CATV, or
telco set-top boxes.
Intelligence,Flexibility,Performance
The on-chip high performance CW4001 MiniRISC®32-bit RISC MIPS CPU
subsystem provides the set-top with intelligence, flexibility and performance.
The CPU subsystem includes 8 KB of instruction cache and 4 KB of data
cache to substantially enhance performance as well as timers and counters
that are needed by real-time operating systems. The powerful 54 MHz CPU is
capable of processing all of the set-top application and control needs. These
include complete set-top system initialization and testing, security handling,
communication ports protocol processing, remote control handling, PCR
recovery and locking, audio/video synchronization, subtitles, OSD overlay,
closed caption, teletext, and electronic program guide (EPG).

In addition, the CPU will support transport-related software processing
including handling operations such as PSI and DVB SI tables maintenance
and private section filtering.
Compatibility and Security
The Transport Demultiplexer with 32 PID (Packet ID) is MPEG-2, DVB- and
JSAT-compliant and features a very extensive hardware-assisted PSI section
filtering scheme. This functionality is not only a superset of the standard
MPEG-2 section filtering scheme but also covers worldwide service providers'
specific filtering requirements. The integration of the DVB descrambler block
into the chip substantially increases the security of the set-top box since the
interface to the descrambler is no longer observable at the board level. In
addition to the common DVB descrambler, L64108 has integrated NDS
(News Data Service) and Multi2 (required for Japanese Market) Conditional
Access Module.
The L64108 integrates several on-chip peripherals including three RS232 seri-
al communication ports, two SmartCard ports, an IEEE1284 parallel commu-
nication port, I2C-like serial communication port, a teletext port and general
purpose I/Os.
