Abstract :
This paper presents the trade-off done during the IC partitioning of the source decoding sub-system of a digital set-top box which leads to a solution with a single chip MPEG2 audio/video/graphic decoder reducing the overall memory used. Then the architecture of the decoder is described with emphasis on the on-chip communications.
