Broadcast-Quality Digital Video Processing

•	Video Format Conversion - the latest-generation Sigma Designs VXP broadcast-quality digital image processor (supporting deep color and better-than-ever video algorithms!) converts any SD or HD video standard to other video standards.
•	Quadruple video output configuration makes it easy to switch from one configuration to another.
•	Superior image quality using per-pixel processing and motion-adaptive de-interlacing ensures optimal image sharpness and picture resolution.
•	Dynamic directional interpolation eliminates jaggy artifacts found in traditional de-interlacing algorithms.
•	Full film-mode detection for all SD and HD inputs.
•	Video transcoding allows S-Video and Component Video inputs to be digitally processed and enhanced, and then routed through the Component or HDMI outputs.
•	Each source can be adjusted independently for best picture.

State-Of-The-Art Digital Audio Processing • The 24-Bit/192-kHz precision upsampler operates on all digital audio signals. The D2’s DACs also incorporate 128X oversampling to increase the sample rate to 24.576 MHz, ensuring the best phase and frequency response possible. Measurable results reflect exceptionally flat frequency response and THD+N in the upper frequencies. This is up to twenty times lower than some of the best high-end outboard DACs, resulting in a much higher level of transparency for multichannel music and movies. Sonic performance is astounding. Smoother high-frequency response, superior detail, and better image focus - a far more transparent window on the original performance. • Anthem’s Own Design! Two dual-core digital signal processing (DSP) engines, our own DSP design, offer a total of 800 MIPS to allow decoding of the new HD audio standards: Dolby Digital Plus, Dolby TrueHD, DTS-HD High-Resolution Audio and DTS-HD Master Audio. More than enough processing power to handle even the most complex program material with matchless precision. • Triple 4 Mbit 8ns external memory is large enough to ensure that the DSP engines never run out of resources. • An impressive resume of superior-quality component parts: - Audio-grade film capacitors and operational amplifiers - Low-ESR electrolytic capacitors - Audio-grade signal-coupling capacitors - High-value (1,000 µF) ADC reference voltage decoupling capacitors for lowest possible THD+N below 1 kHz • Super-efficient switching power supply: - Low-noise, low-emissions design - Multiple-synchronized dithered-frequency isolation stages ensure exceptionally quiet audio and video operation and excellent electromagnetic compatibility - Fourteen independently regulated output stages ensure optimal operating environment • 4-layer hand-designed motherboard includes separate power and groundplanes. • Independent 6- and 8-layer DSP, A/D and D/A converter boards - A/D and D/A use separate analog and digital planes as well as separate power and groundplanes for remarkably low noise. • All critical signal paths are surrounded by groundplanes. • Fully buffered audio/video inputs for minimum crosstalk. • State-of-the-art video switching circuitry is laid out on isolated, independent 2-layer glass-epoxy circuit boards. • Highest-precision thru-hole passive components. • Unparalleled analog-to-digital and digital-to-analog conversion eliminates noise in the 20 to 80-kHz frequency band thanks to the high quality of our ADC and DAC designs: Analog-to-Digital Conversion (ADC): - Capable of up to 24-bit x 192-kHz resolution - Six stereo analog attenuators - one for each channel of the 6-channel input, promote greater dynamic range and an impressive reduction in distortion Digital-to-Analog Conversion (DAC): - Converters operate at their full 24-bit x 192-kHz resolution - Switched-capacitor output filters significantly reduce the DAC’s sensitivity to rapid fluctuations in bit rate - The built-in state-of-the-art upsampler allows the DACs to run at the highest speed (192 kHz) regardless of the incoming digital bitstream, and with extremely low back ground noise up to almost 100 kHz - High-accuracy clock generator (49.152 MHz, +/-0.001%) eliminates the potential for errors in timing, thereby contributing to a significant reduction in the distortion common in D/A conversion
