DescriptionThe T90FJR, also called CIMaX™ controller is the hardware extension of SCM Microsystems' second generation Common Interface integration package (CI Pack+™). It enables CI Driver software to directly address two complete independent Common Interface modules.
As such, it contributes to offer an optimized, homogeneous and complete solution for digital TV receiver manufacturer that wants quickly to implement the Common Interface.
T90FJR includes the necessary I/Os to interface the MPEG Transport stream generated by the receiver demodulator and to daisy chain it through two modules and back it to the demultiplexer. Voltage level translators allow to avoid any additional component.
T90FJR interfaces with major digital TV receiver microprocessors. An I2C bus is used for initialization and module selection, while a Universal Control Signal Generator (UCSG)maps CPU control bus into Command Interface control signals. To minimize pin count, host address and data buses transit through external buffers that
are driven by CIMaX™.
T90FJR includes a memory mode that allows to use any of the two Common interface slots to read/write a 8-bit PC Card Memory card. This feature gives the receiver memory extension capability for software upgrade or better performance.
