At Electronica '98 MICRONAS INTERMETALL presents its new Display and Deflection Processor, the DDP 3310B. In addition to standard TV formats, this mixed-signal IC is also capable of processing video signals from digital sources for displaying on 4:3 and 16:9 television picture tubes. Up to now, three ICs and additional circuitry were required for the capabilities now offered by the DDP 3310B. The new IC is mainly aimed at applications in television receivers with multimedia and Internet compatibility, as well as in projection units.
At the Electronica'98, MICRONAS INTERMETALL will unveil the new generation of its successful multistandard audio processor, the MSP: The IC family MSP 34xxG processes all TV audio standards in use worldwide and, thanks to the expanded processor intelligence, the system design is simpler than ever.
Today, at exactly 23.15 hours CET, the Ariane 4 launch rocket completed a successful lift-off from its launchpad in Kourou, French Guyana, putting the first of three WorldSpace satellites into orbit.
The WorldSpace system is one of the first commercial digital radio projects to be realized on a large scale. The audio data are coded in the MPEG 2.5/Layer 3 standard which was specially developed for WorldSpace, and are transmitted in compressed form in the L-band (1467...1492 MHz).
This year's Electronica will be the first international event for MICRONAS INTERMETALL to present itself under its new company name. The Freiburg-based semiconductor manufacturer is a leading supplier of mixed signal ICs, automotive controllers, and Hall-effect sensors.
MICRONAS INTERMETALL, leading manufacturer of mixed-signal ICs, automotive controllers, and Hall-effect sensors, presents its new linear Hall-effect sensor HAL 800 as a contact-free alternative to mechanical potentiometers and angle measuring devices. The HAL 800 is the worl's first Hall-effect sensor featuring programmable, digital on-chip signal processing which permits matching to different applications and systems, as well as automatic, electronic in-line adjustment.
MICRONAS INTERMETALL, leading European supplier of highly integrated circuits for mixed-signal applications and Hall effect sensors, has updated its product documentation with a new CD-ROM.
Manufacturers of PCs, graphics cards, video and TV tuner cards need wait no longer for Windows 98. At CeBIT'98, MICRONAS INTERMETALL, the leading European provider of advanced video and audio solutions, presented its new hardware and software package, ?MediaCVR? (pronounced ?mediaceiver?), for processing and visualizing TV signals on the PC.
