An analog/digital audio converting apparatus enables listening to both digital and analog audio signals received from a digital receiving apparatus and analog audio signals input from an external source using the same receiver by providing a formatter capable of converting the analog audio signal into a digital audio signal with the digital broadcasting receiving apparatus.

Analog/digital audio converter and a method thereof

Embodiments disclose an integrated circuit (IC) including a power input unit, which receives power from an external power supply, a core, which is driven by the power input through the power input unit, and a controller, which determines characteristics of the core and controls the external power supply to supply the power according to the determined characteristics.

Integrated circuit (IC), adaptive power supply using IC characteristics and adaptive power supply method according to IC characteristics, electronic device including the same and manufacturing method of IC

A display apparatus for receiving broadcasting includes a display unit configured to display an image thereon, a cover which partially covers the display unit, at least one signal connector which is configured to connect to a portable signal processing module that is located outside the cover and processes a signal to be displayed by the display unit, and receives the signal processed by the signal processing module, and a timing controller (T-con) configured to control a display timing of the signal received by the at least one signal connector.

Display apparatus and signal processing module for receiving broadcasting and device and method for receiving broadcasting

A broadcast receiving device and a method for receiving a broadcast thereof are provided. The broadcast receiving device includes a channel receiving unit which receives a channel broadcasting signal, generates a first parallel signal from the received channel broadcasting signal, converts the parallel signal into a serial signal, and outputs the serial signal; and a main body unit which receives the serial signal output from the channel receiving unit, reconverts the received serial signal into a second parallel signal, processes the second parallel signal, and outputs a video signal, an audio signal, and an additional data signal extracted from the processed second parallel signal. Since the channel receiving unit is provided as a separate unit from the main body unit, the thickness of the broadcast receiving device can be further reduced.

Broadcast receiving device and method for receiving broadcast thereof

A digital cable broadcast processing apparatus and a method thereof. A power supply supplies power, and an out-of-band (OOB) receiver receives additional OOB information from a transmission system. A cable card to descramble the received OOB information is mounted in an interface, and a controller controls the power supply in accordance with the presence and absence of the cable card, and accordingly controls the power supply to the OOB receiver. Whether or not the cable card is mounted is determined, and power is cut off or supplied in accordance with the result of the determination. As a result, unnecessary power consumption can be prevented when the cable card is not mounted.

Digital cable broadcast processing apparatus and method thereof

A cable receiver is disclosed that comprises a multimedia channel unit to receive a multimedia signal, and a multimedia processor to process the multimedia signal. The cable receiver further comprises a cable modem to perform data communication with an information provider that provides appendix information about the multimedia signal and a Web server that hosts a predetermined Web page through a cable network. An information processor adds appendix information to the multimedia signal, and a Web browser transmits request information received for the Web page according to a user's selection and processes the received Web page for the user. The cable receiver further comprises a controller to control data transmission of the cable modem, the information processor, and the Web browser to transmit the appendix information and the Web page to the information processor and the Web browser. Thus, the present invention provides a cable receiver capable of supporting Internet service without incurring the additional cost associated with a cable modem.
