●The iceLynx-Micro (consumer electronics link with integrated microcontroller and physical layer (PHY)) is a high performance 1394 link-layer device designed as a total solution for digitally interfacing advanced audio/video consumer electronics applications. The device is offered in both a DTCP encryption/decryption version (TSB43CA43A and TSB43CA42) and a non-DTCP encryption/decryption version (TSB43CB43).
●In addition to supporting transmit and receive of MPEG2 and DSS formatted transport streams with encryption and decryption, iceLynx-Micro supports the IEC 61883-6 and audio music protocol standards for audio format and packetizing, and asynchronous and asynchronous stream (as defined by 1394).
●The device also features an embedded ARM7TDMI microprocessor core with access to 256K bytes of internal program memory. The ARM7 is embedded to process 1394 specific transactions, thus significantly reducing the processing power required by the host CPU and the development time required by the user. The ARM7 is accessed from the 16/1-bit host CPU interface, from a UART communication port, or from a JTAG debug port.
●The iceLynx-Micro integrated 3-port PHY allows the user enhanced flexibility as two additional devices can be utilized in a system application. The PHYs speeds are capable of running at 100 Mbps, 200 Mbps, or 400 Mbps. The PHY follows all requirements as stated in the IEEE 1394-1995 and IEEE 1394a-2000 standards.
●The TSB43CA43A and TSB43CA42 version of iceLynx-Micro incorporates two M6 baseline ciphers (one per HSDI port) per the 5C specification to support transmit and receive of MPEG2 formatted transport streams with encryption and decryption. The TSB43CB43 version of iceLynx-Micro is identical to the TSB43CA43A without implementation of the encryption/decryption features. The TSB43CB43 device allows customers that do not require the encryption/decryption features to incorporate iceLynx-Micro without becoming DTLA licensees. Both devices support the IEC 61883-6 and audio music protocol standards for audio format and packetizing.
