consists of the DMN-8100 and DMN-8150 codecs, as well as
a complete reference design platform. These products are
based on a true system-on-a-chip architecture, reducing cost,
design complexity, power consumption, and time-to-market
through its high level of system integration and its C-Ware
high-level programming environment. The DoMiNo architec-
ture has true multi-format A/V and DV codec capabilities
that enable unique features for PC peripheral editing and TV
PVR applications. These include, but are not limited to,
encoding to or from any digital (DV) or analog (A/V)
source, MPEG-1, MPEG 2, and MPEG-4, and DV codec func-
tionality, as well as motion compensated temporal filtering
(MCTF) for crystal clear video quality from any source.
low-cost video peripherals, based on MPEG-1, MPEG-2, and
MPEG-4 compression standards for archiving and Web-
streaming applications, as well as the emerging time-shift and
digital video recording (DVR) applications.
features as the DMN-8150, with additional support for DV
encode and decode as well as transcoding from DV to
MPEG-1, MPEG-2, and MPEG-4; flexible features that are
critical for enabling new video editing applications. All
support both NTSC and PAL formats.

combined with MP3, MP1L2, AAC, and AC3 audio format
compression and decompression, enable single-chip DVD
content creation, video editing, and content sharing solu-
tions. The high level of system integration drastically reduces
system design complexity, component cost and time-to-
market. The reduction of component count greatly increases
system reliability and cuts power consumption significantly.

provides support for MPEG-4 and MP3 streaming applica-
tions over broadband Internet connections. With LSI Logic’s
MPEG-4 H.263 (SP, ASP*) implementation, DoMiNo-based
products deliver bit-rates as low as 64-256 Kbps. They are
capable of VHS quality for streaming movies and sports
programs at 1.25 Mbps or lower on a 35" TV.
