Introduction
The STi7106 is targeted at the latest operator and CE manufacturer requirements for STBs
and Blu-ray DVD players, which utilize advanced HD decoding (H264/VC-1/MPEG2/AVS),
and which conform to DVB, ISMA, ATIS-IIF, SCTE, DirecTV, ATSC, ARIB, CEA, ITU,
OpenCable, MSTV, and BD specifications.
The STi7106 provides a solution for operators to specify a range of cost-efficient, high
performance HD STBs including cost-efficient zappers, IP clients, interactive STBs, DVR
standalone and DVR server/home network capable STBs, and with content delivery
possible using broadcast or broadband networks, or both (hybrid STBs).
The STi7106 keeps pace with the latest conditional access, DRM and trusted platform
requirements of major operators worldwide by incorporating the latest generation of
advanced security features.
The STi7106 offers current users of ST’s growing family of advanced decoding ICs
enhancements in performance and features whilst reducing cost and time to market for the
next generation deployments.
