Activa 220 has direct interfaces to multiple Optical Pickup Units (OPUs) via the Activa 250 RF amplifier chip. The Activa 220+250 chipset is designed to deliver a broad portfolio of cost-effective products, from entry level Optical Disc Drive (ODD)only systems to combo systems (e.g., ODD+Hard Disc Drive (HDD), ODD+VCR, and ODD+TV). All Zoran Activa 220/250-based recording solutions are 100% application and middleware software compatible with previous generation products, providing a turnkey solution that reduces product development cycles. Zoran's Activa 220+250 based DVD recorders provide: • Support for DVD recording formats (DVD+R/+RW, DVD-R/-RW) • Intuitive, easy to use On Screen Display (OSD) for multiple devices (ODD, HDD, flash card, etc.) • Convergence solutions for DVDR+DTT and Networking • Customizable HW/SW platform for next generation application development • 100% compliance to DVD-video, -VR, and +VR verifiers • Native RGB input recording The Activa 220+250 chipset is specifically designed to support standalone DVD recorders with support for value-added applications including: • Multiple file format support, including MPEG-4 and DivX • HDD/PVR functionality • HDMI Digital Output w/HDCP, HD-JPEG • USB Connectivity to digital cameras, printers and storage devices • Flash Card Connectivity • EPG services including Gemstar and tvtv • YesDVD authoring The Activa 220+250 solution is tuned for multiple Optical Pickup Units (OPUs) and media types allowing OEMs to develop differentiating features in the application software. The Activa 220+250 chipset is the ideal IC solution for DVD Recorders, Digital Entertainment Media Centers and combo DVDR systems (DVDR+HDD, DVDR+DTT, DVDR+VCR, DVDR+TV, DVDR A/V Receiver). The Activa 230 adds to the Activa 220 features dual Digital Video Broadcast Terrestrial and Satellite (DVB-T/S) support for a high performance European solution. The Activa 220 and 230 are footprint and software compatible.
