The MSD209GL 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 high-definition (HD) H.264 video
decoder, a RealVideo decoder, a JPEG video decoder, a MPEG-4 decoder, and 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.
audio DSP decoder for MPEG audio streams, MPEG layer I and II digital audio decoder with analog audio outputs
that are designed to support existing and future DVB-T programs while handling conditional access. Furthermore,
it is also possible to decode JPEG, RealVideo streams, and MP3 formats from external sources such as USB
interface.

For analog TV, the MSD209GL includes NTSC/PAL/SECAM multi-standard video decoder comprising a 3D motion
adaptive comb filter and time-based correction, and a NICAM/A2 audio decoder to support worldwide televisionstandards. The MSD209GL is also configured with a VBI processor to decode digital information such as Close
Caption/V-chip/teletext/WSS/CGMS-A/VPS. In addition, the MStar advanced LCD TV processor enhances video
quality, motion adaptive de-interlacer, picture quality adjustment units, and MStarACE-3 color engine.
With USB 2.0 host controllers, UART, IR, SPI, I2C, and PWM, the MSD209GL fulfills all requirements in advanced
DTV sets. To reduce system costs, the MSD209GL also integrates intelligent power management controlcapability for green-mode requirements and spread-spectrum support for EMI management.
