Application of second generation advanced multi-media display processor (AMDP2) in a digital micro-mirror array based HDTV

A second generation of the advanced multi-media display processor (AMDP2) is applied in a consumer multi-media HDTV prototype system. The AMDP2 provides a cost effective and flexible platform which can be used to implement a wide array of video processing algorithms. Examples include interlace to progressive scan conversion, image scaling, and picture enhancement. This paper describes a digital micro mirror HDTV architecture and the application of the AMDP2 processor to perform video processing algorithms for various input signals for display on a 1280/spl times/720 digital micro mirror device (DMD).
