The EMMATM 3PF has the following features.
1. All of the main functions required for Blu-ray Disc players are included on one chip, including the digital conversion of analog data read from optical discs, the digital decoding of encoded images and sounds and a High-Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI) for output to televisions.
2. The package area has been reduced by 50% due to the single-chip configuration, the integration of external memory and the internalization of peripheral functions.
3. The EMMATM 3PF supports BD-ROM Profile 2.0, the latest Blu-ray Disc specification. This profile includes picture-in-picture playback, high quality sound, and network connections for downloading additional content.
4. The EMMATM 3PF has a multi-core CPU, which delivers an industry-best 1150 DMIPS (Dhrystone MIPS), and a graphic processing accelerator.
The EMMATM 3PF allows users to create compact, high performance Blu-ray Disc players. In the future, this new product will make an important contribution to the integration of Blu-ray Disc playback into all audio-visual systems.
Monthly production is expected to be 1,000,000 units from the fourth quarter of 2008.

Recently, new Blu-ray Disc compatible devices have entered into the digital audio-visual and computer peripheral markets. Despite being a new market, the Blu-ray Disc player market is still expected to grow rapidly. Sales are projected to triple from 2,200,000 units in 2007 to 6,800,000 units in 2008. Blu-ray Disc players require a frontend to convert analog data read from optical disk to digital data and a backend to decode the encoded digital video and audio data and output it to televisions.
