TW8831
TFT Display Controller
The TW8831 incorporates many of the features
required to create multi-purpose in-car LCD display
system in a single package. It integrates a high quality
2D comb NTSC/PAL/SECAM video decoder, triple high
speed RGB ADCs, high quality scaler, and images
enhancement functions which include Black and
White Stretch and etc. It also supports panoramic
scaling for conversion to wide screen display. On the
input side, it supports a rich combination of CVBS, S-
video. On the output side, it supports variety of digital
panel types with its built-in timing controller.
