1. Introduction
The TPU 3040
is a single chip World System Teletext
(WST) decoder for applications in analog and digital TV
sets. Based on a 65C02 core with RAM and ROM on
chip, an adaptive data slicer, a display controller and a
number of interfaces, the TPU 3040 offers acquisition
and display of various teletext and data services such as
WST, PDC, VPS and WSS.
1.1. Features
The TPU 3040 is an integrated circuit designed in
CMOS technology. As a stand-alone system or in combi-
nation with the DIGIT 3000 system, the TPU 3040 offers
a wide range of new and interesting features, some of
them unique in comparison with other products on the
market.
The TPU 3035 is a stripped-down version of TPU 3040,
designed for low-cost applications. The basic chip archi-
tecture remains unchanged, whereas some of the more
sophisticated features are removed (see Tab 1–1). In the
following description only the TPU 3040 is mentioned.
