The world's first single-chip HDTV transcoder LSI (MPEG-2 to AVC/H.264)
Matiz 
| The Matiz is an epoch-making LSI that implements MPEG-2 to MPEG-4 AVC/H.264 transcoding in a single chip. It can halve the bit rate and double the compression ratio, so HDTV or SDTV contents in MPEG-2 format can be easily stored and transmitted - while retaining premium video quality. |  |
Key features
- Transcoding from MPEG-2 to AVC/H.264 halves the bit rate.
- Doubles the compression ratio while retaining excellent video quaIity.
- Supports HDTV and SDTV formats.
- Supports 3x transcoding for SDTV
- Package size (17 mm x 17 mm)
Applications
- AV personal computer
- PVR (Personal Video Recoder)
- Home server system
