Video/Audio Elementary, Video/Audio Packetized
Elementary, Program, and Transport Streams are
generated internally to the BCM7040.
Broadcom third generation production of field-proven
and in-production technology.
Universal compatibility through standards
compliance: Video Encoding (ISO/IEC 13818-2),
Audio Encoding (ISO/IEC 11172-3, MPEG-1, Layer II
and Dolby Digital AC-3) and System Multiplexing
(ISO/IEC 13818-1).
Broadcom-developed reference design kit includes
application board, sample application, and drivers
based upon industry-standard operating systems,
enabling rapid and streamlined software and
hardware development, reducing time to market.
Simple system design: BCM7040 + single SDRAM.
