A system-on-a-chip (SoC) to process digital audio-video content includes one or more input/output (I/O) interfaces to transmit the digital audio-video content to corresponding I/O devices coupled to the SoC and to receive the digital audio-video content from the corresponding I/O devices. The SoC also includes a cryptographic engine to encrypt the digital audio-video content being transmitted via the I/O interfaces to the corresponding I/O devices and to decrypt the digital audio-video content received via the I/O interfaces from the corresponding I/O devices.

Integrated encryption/decryption functionality in a digital TV/PVR system-on-chip

A method and an apparatus for an integrated high definition television controller are described. The integrated high definition digital television controller includes two or more the following functions in a single chip: MPEG2 Transport, Audio and Video Decoders, Video input capture and converter, flexible video scan rate converter, de-interlace processor, display controller and video D/A converters, graphics controller, a unified local bus, N-plane alpha blending, a warping engine, audio digital signal processor, disk drive interface, peripheral bus interfaces, such as PCI bus and local bus interfaces, various I/O peripherals, a bus bridge with a partitioned chip, and a CPU with caches. The integrated controller, in one embodiment, is designed to handle multiple television standards (for example ATSC, ARIB, DVB, AES, SMPTE, ITU) and designed to be deployed in various countries in the world.
