Fujitsu Semiconductors has introduced three second-generation transcoders with built-in memory, the MB86M01, MB86M02, and MB86M03, which are bi-directional H.264/MPEG-2 transcoders.
The new transcoders can convert both video and audio data, can perform full HD (1920 x 1080) conversions, and they are also equipped with a transrating function that enables H.264 video data to be converted into even higher-compression H.264 video data.
MB86M01, MB86M02, and MB86M03 includes Fujitsu’s transcoding technology which delivers low power consumption and the transcoders can convert H.264 video data into even higher -compression H.264 video data (the H.264 transrating function), and are packaged in an even smaller form-factor.
The MB86M01 and MB86M03 has a compact packages measure 13mm square, designed for mobile products, such as laptops and accessories for smartphones and tablet PCs.
The transcoders combine Fujitsu’s low power consumption technology with a proprietary algorithm of Fujitsu Laboratories that enables higher image quality while reducing the processing burden, resulting in low-power consumption, consuming just 1.2W when using the H.264 transrating function, even including the memory.
The new products enables simultaneous control of the programme being viewed and another programme being recorded by connecting two tuner modules to two tuner input terminals and shortens the delay time.
