Description
The Fujitsu MB86H57, MB86H58 can
convert between Full HD (1920 dots
x 1080 lines), MPEG-2 video data and
H.264 video data, as well as
transcoding between audio formats
while featuring low power
consumption.
These new ICs are targeted for
consumer equipment supporting the
growing number of applications
related to digital recording and
transcoding of broadcast content.
By employing Fujitsu’s proprietary
transcode technology, Fujitsu
Microelectronics realised industryleading low power consumption of
only 1.0 Watt (W) including the
in-package memory.
Combined with the small form-factor
packaging, these ICs can also be used
in mobile products such as notebook
PCs.
In addition to the transcode function,
security functions are included on a
1

single chip to make it easier for
customers to create their systems.
Features
■ Industry-leading low power
consumption and small formfactor. Fujitsu Microelectronics'
proprietary transcoding technology
has enabled the company to create
a Full HD H.264/MPEG-2 transcoder
with industry-leading low power
consumption. Using Fujitsu's 65nm
process technology the power
consumption in Full HD transcoding
operation is just 1.0W including one
512Mb FCRAM™-in-package. In
addition, the MB86H57 small formfactor option will allow the creation
of innovative portable and mobile
products.
■ Necessary functions for recording
digital broadcasts in a single chip.
Both ICs integrate all the necessary
functions for systems developed to
record digital broadcasts, including
security functions and an interface
to digital TV demodulators.

■ H.264/MPEG-2 bi-directional
transcoder functionality. Building
on the functionality of the previous
generation product, MB86H52, to
transcode from MPEG-2 to H.264,
these new ICs also transcode from
H.264 to MPEG-2 SD. With this
additional capability, the new
devices support the majority of
formats used worldwide. The
combination of transcoding and
time re-stamping allows the audio
operation to be adjusted to
customer needs.
■ Interfaces to connect peripheral ICs.
Both products contain a variety of
interfaces for improved
connectivity. As a host interface to
connect to an external CPU, there is
a 16-bit parallel interface and a TS
interface for video streaming. In
addition, the MB86H57 and
MB86H58 have serial, PCI, PCI
Express and USB interfaces.
Connection to external ROM is also
possible, enabling high-speed bootup for equipment deploying the ICs.
