Abstract :
A chip for the concurrent processing of many real time multi-media streams has three independent and uncorrelated video input channels. They are stored in and retrieved from an external SDRAM to be displayed on a TV set using PC-like multiple windows. Graphics data generated by an external CPU is read from SDRAM to be blended with the composition of the video.
