MSD189CL-LF-S1 MSTAR 256-LQFP

The MSD189CL is a highly integrated controller IC for LCD/PDP DTV applications with resolutions up to full-HD
(1920 x 1080). It is configured with an integrated triple-ADC/PLL, a multi-standard TV video and audio
decoder, a motion adaptive video de-interlacer, a scaling engine, the MStarACE-3 color engine, an advanced 2D
graphics engine, a transport processor, a high-definition (HD) MPEG video decoder, a 24-bit DSP for MPEG
audio decoding, a DVI/HDCP/HDMI receiver, and a peripheral control unit providing a variety of HDTV control
functions.

The MSD189CL comprises an MPEG-2 transport processor with advanced section filtering capability, an MPEG-2

(MP@HL profile) video decoder, a Dolby* Digital (AC-3)/MPEG layer I and II digital audio decoder with analog
audio outputs that are designed to support DMB-TH HD/SDTV programs. Furthermore, it is also possible to
decode MPEG-4, JPEG, MP3 formats from external sources such as USB interfaces.

For analog TV, the MSD189CL includes NTSC/PAL/SECAM multi-standard video decoder comprising a 3-D

motion adaptive comb filter and time-based correction, and a TV sound decoder to support China television
standard. In addition, the MStar advanced LCD TV processor enhances video quality, motion adaptive
de-interlacer, picture quality adjustment units, and MStarACE-3 color engine.

By integrating peripherals including USB 2.0 host controller, UART, IR, SPI, I2C, and PWM, the MSD189CL

fulfills all requirements in advanced DTV sets. To further reduce system costs, the MSD189CL also integrates
intelligent power management control capability for green-mode requirements and spread-spectrum support for
EMI management.
