Abstract
This chapter will outline the challenges in platform development for digital consumer home devices delivering multimedia content and novel services and applications. It will detail the requirements on this market and the approaches taken by Philips Semiconductors when developing the Nexperia-Digital Video Platform. The Nexperia-Digital Video Platform (Nexperia-DVP) comprises a family of Systems on a Chip (SoCs) and a software platform that allows Philips’ customers to build cost effective, flexible Digital Video appliances.
