    Zoran Corporation 1390 Kifer Road Sunnyvale CA 94086 408 523 65DO Fax 408 523 6501 w.zoran.com RECEIVED May 16,2005 Mr. Alan Stillwell MAY 1 7 2005 Senior Associate Chief Office of Engineering and Technology Federal Communications Commission 445 12th street sw Washington, DC 20554 Re: Requirements for Digital Television Receiving Capability, ET Docket 05-24 Dear Mr. Stillwell, Pursuant to your telephonic request, Zoran Corporation (Zoran) hereby supplies certain information with respect to Digital Television converter boxes that would be capable of converting over the air ATSC signals to NTSC signals for display on legacy NTSC sets through the standard coaxial input of those sets. As you know, Zoran does not manufacturer set top boxes; rather it created the SupraHDTM640 Reference Board, which includes a DTV receiver on a chip. (See the enclosed brochure.) It also has a complete ATSC DTV Reference Design that could be easily used by original equipment manufacturers to build large quantities of low cost converter boxes. Zoran has a great deal of experience in producing full-function low-cost integrated circuits for various consumer electronics devices. Last year it produced silicon chips to enable some 42 million DVD players. That chip is a large part of the reason why a progressive scan DVD player can be purchased for $39.88. (See, e.g., Kenwood model DF-3080s at htt~://www.~ann~.com/shoo/servlet/item/f81099939% c=PriceGrabber) Accordingly, Zoran can provide the following predictions about DTV converter box costs at wholesale and retail. These estimates below, however, are highly dependent on a demand for large quantities of DTV converter boxes, in excess of 100,000 per month, towards a goal of deploying boxes at least in all households dependent on analog broadcasts by the end of 2006.

  • Industry Consortia
    INDUSTRY CONSORTIA International Color Consortium® (ICC) The International Color Consortium (ICC) was established in 1993 by eight industry vendors for the purpose of creating, promoting and encouraging the standardization and evolution of an open, vendor-neutral, cross-platform color management system architecture and components. The outcome of this co-operation was the development of the ICC profile specification. The intent of the International Color Consortium profile format is to provide a cross-platform device profile format. Device profiles can be used to translate color data created on one device into another device's native color space. The acceptance of this format by operating system vendors allows end users to transparently move profiles and images with embedded profiles between different operating systems. This permits tremendous flexibility to both users and vendors. For example, it allows users to be sure that their image will retain its color fidelity when moved between systems and applications. Furthermore, it allows a printer manufacturer to create a single profile for multiple operating systems. The Chairman of the ICC is Craig Revie of Fuji Film Electronic Imaging. The Vice Chairman is Michael Rodriguez of RR Donnelley. Phil Green of the London College of Communication is the Technical Secretary. NPES The Association for the Suppliers of Printing, Publishing and Converting Technologies serves as the Administrative Secretariat. See the following page for a complete list of International Color Consortium members. Additional information on the ICC is available at http://www.color.org. ISO TC 130/JWG 7 - Colour Management The International Color Consortium (ICC) entered into discussions with ISO TC130 regarding an interest in having the ICC specification become an ISO standard.

  • Laser-Plasma Sources for Extreme-Ultraviolet Lithography
    Laser-Plasma Sources for Extreme-Ultraviolet Lithography BJÖRN A. M. HANSSON Doctoral Thesis Stockholm, Sweden 2003 TRITA FYS 2003-56 ISSN 0280-316X KTH ISRN KTH/FYS/--03:56--SE SE-100 44 Stockholm ISBN 91-7283-658-X SWEDEN Akademisk avhandling som med tillstånd av Kungl Tekniska högskolan framlägges till offentlig granskning för avläggande av teknologie doktorsexamen fredagen den 19 december 2003 kl. 10.00 i Kollegiesalen, Administrationsbyggnaden, Kungl Tekniska högskolan, Valhallavägen 79, Stockholm. °c Björn A. M. Hansson, november 2003 Tryck: Universitetsservice US AB iii Abstract This thesis describes the development and characterization of a liquid- xenon-jet laser-plasma source for extreme-ultraviolet (EUV) radiation. It is shown how this source may be suitable for production-scale EUV lithography (EUVL). EUVL is one of the main candidates to succeed deep-ultraviolet (DUV) lithography for large-scale manufacturing of integrated circuits (IC). However, a major obstacle towards the realization of EUVL is the current unavailability of a source meeting the tough requirements on especially power and clean- liness for operation in an EUVL stepper. The liquid-xenon-jet laser-plasma concept has key advantages that may make it suitable for EUVL since, e.g., its plasma consists only of the inert noble gas xenon and since the liquid- jet target technology enables plasma operation at large distances from the source-hardware thereby reducing sputtering and to allowing for high-power operation. At the beginning of the work described in this thesis, a spatial insta- bility of the liquid-xenon-jet made stable operation of a plasma at practical distances from the nozzle orifice difficult.
