Moschip Announced latest Audio Video SoC Processor for Digital Content Management



MosChip Semiconductor announced a new Audio Video SoC processor for digital content management and routing of AV streams. The SoC is based on an ARM9T processor and is designed as a next generation digital content manager and AV stream router to manage AV streams over 1394 / FireWire and USB connections for fast and reliable storage.

The MCS60C80 Digital Content Management Processor is the only AV 1394 secure storage controller with a Flash card interface and support for multiple storage interfaces: Secure Digital, Compact Flash and Memory Stick. Many of the functions required to move video content are handled directly in on-chip hardware functions controlled by the processor.

The MCS60C80 performs the majority of the work requiring only minimal servicing which leaves the device's main processor free for other chores. The processor also allows recording to an attached ATA, USB or Flash card device or to an external (1394) optical or disk device.

Advanced AES encryption / decryption engines allow for protection of content while it is flowing through the MCS60C80 without the need of the main processor's intervention. It also incorporates the Digital Transmission Content Protection (DTCP) Specification, which defines a cryptographic protocol for protecting AV entertainment content.
