Blu-Ray Disc Association Announces Specification for Next-Generation Broadcast Recordable Blu-Ray Disc™ Product Licensing to Commence in 2018

Blu-ray Disc Association Announces Specification for Next-Generation Broadcast Recordable Blu-ray Disc™ Product Licensing to Commence in 2018 LOS ANGELES – December19, 2017 – The Blu-ray Disc Association (BDA) today announced completion of specifications for next-generation broadcast recordable Blu-ray Disc™ for the Japanese market. This is the culmination of the work of global leaders from the consumer electronics, IT and content creation industries. The next-generation broadcast recordable Blu- ray format will enable recording of Ultra HD content in the successful Japanese recordable market. Blu-ray Disc’s large data capacity has made it a top choice for archiving personal video content. Recordable Blu-ray Disc is widely used for recording and archiving broadcast content in Japan where Blu-ray recorders continue to represent almost 75% of the Blu-ray hardware market. "With 4K becoming the standard, not only for TVs, but also mobile devices and video cameras, extending recordable Blu-ray to enable Ultra HD content is a logical and very practical extension of format,” said Victor Matsuda, Chair of BDA Global Promotions Committee. “We are also anticipating that Ultra HD broadcasting will start in Japan around the end of 2018. The ability to continually expand to keep up with consumer demand for high quality experiences, remains one of Blu-ray’s greatest strengths and a primary reason for its success and longevity.” Licensing of the next-generation broadcast recordable Blu-ray format is scheduled to begin by January 2018. The BDA is working closely with industry leaders to develop the tools and processes needed to ensure interoperability between recorders, players and software. For additional licensing questions, please contact the Blu-ray Disc Association’s Licensing Office: [email protected] Blu-ray Disc Association 4444 Riverside Dr. Suite 103 Burbank, CA 91505, USA For media inquiries: HoogComm Heather Gioco +1-713-299-1312 [email protected] 1/2 About Blu-ray For the recordable format, Blu-ray Disc™ and BDXL™ are trademarks owned by the Blu-ray Disc Association (BDA) and licensed for use on discs, recorders and other products that use BDA’s optical disc format. The format defines high definition, 4K and 8K broadcast recording to the BDA’s recordable discs. Single layer Blu-ray Disc for recording can hold up to 25GB, dual layer disc up to 50GB. Also BDXL™ triple layer discs hold up to 100GB, quad layer discs hold up to 128GB. For ROM formats, Blu-ray Disc™ and Ultra HD Blu-ray™ are trademarks owned by the Blu-ray Disc Association (BDA) and licensed for use on discs, players and other products that use BDA’s optical disc format for high definition and ULTRA HD audio-video and high capacity data software applications. Single layer Blu-ray Disc can hold up to 25GB of data and dual-layer discs up to 50GB of data. Ultra HD Blu-ray discs hold up to 66GB and 100GB of data on dual and triple layer discs respectively. About the Blu-ray Disc Association The Blu-ray Disc Association (BDA) is responsible for promoting and developing business opportunities for Blu-ray Disc™ - the BDA’s optical disc format for high definition audio-video and high capacity data software applications. The BDA has more than 60 members.

Blu-Ray Disc Association Begins Licensing
Blu-ray Disc Association Begins Licensing For Next-Generation Broadcast Recordable Blu-ray™ Format New Recordable Format Enables Recording of Ultra HD Broadcast Content in Japanese Market LOS ANGELES – January9 2018 – The Blu-ray Disc Association (BDA) today commenced licensing of its latest expansion of the Blu-ray Disc format. The specifications for next-generation broadcast recordable Blu-ray format will allow consumers in the Japanese market to record, view and archive Ultra HD broadcast content on new BD-RE XL media, as well as on legacy BD-R and BD-RE discs. Blu-ray Disc’s large data capacity has made it a top choice for archiving personal video content. In Japan, where there are three times more Blu-ray recorders in homes than there are players, it’s widely used for recording and archiving broadcast content. According to JEITA, more than 2 million Blu-ray recorders were shipped in 2016 and a similar number is forecasted for 2017, while approximately 600,000 Blu-ray players were shipped during the same years. "Due to different business models and certain cultural aspects in Japan, Blu-ray recorder sales have outpaced player sales since the introduction of the format,” noted Victor Matsuda, Chair of BDA Global Promotions Committee. “Recording and archiving broadcast content is common in Japan and, with Ultra HD broadcast scheduled to launch there towards the end of 2018, adding Ultra HD recording capability was a given for the BDA and is an important benefit for Japanese consumers.” Highlights of the Ultra HD Blu-ray recordable specifications, which were completed in November of 2017, include: Recording and playback of Ultra HD broadcast streams at up to 100Mbps in new BD-RE XL media Recording of Ultra HD broadcast streams on legacy BD-R/BD-RE media New File system specifications for recording AV streams up to 100Mbps AACS2 recordable technology Support for HEVC and HDR (Hybrid Log Gamma) The new BD-RE-XL discs will allow for more than two hours of recording, even in the case of 100Mbps AV streams.

Since the Advent of Integrated Circuit Technology in 1958, the Integration Has Been Primarily Monolithic
Opening Keynote #1 Extending Moore’s Law with Advanced Packages Abstract: Since the advent of integrated circuit technology in 1958, the integration has been primarily monolithic. Unfortunately, due to physical and economic reasons, the vast majority of analog chips, digital chips, and memory chips are each built on separate technologies. Therefore, in order to deliver optimum system performance, power, and cost, it is desirable to integrate multiple different die, each using its own optimized technology, in a single package. Advanced packaging technologies, e.g. 3DIC, SSIT(stacked silicon Interconnect technology) etc., have been developed to extend scaling beyond the Moore’s Law to achieve higher transistor count, increased functionality and superior performance. Xilinx is the leading provider of all programmable FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array) products. To achieve high performance, but low power and cost, Xilinx has developed an innovative SSIT technology that employs microbumps and through-silicon vias (TSVs) to integrate multiple FPGA die slices placed side-by-side on a passive silicon interposer, and successfully delivered the industry’s first 28nm homogeneous SSIT device. This technology is further developed for advanced technical nodes (20nm, 16nm and beyond) to allow integrating heterogeneous components such as Processor, FPGA, GPU, Memory, Serdes, etc. on the same interposer die enabling faster computing through reduced latency. The advance of packaging and assembly technology will be introduced, and the benefits of advanced packaging to the various products will be highlighted. Successful qualification of these products is driving the high growth in the applications e.g. cloud computing, embedded vision, industrial IOT, and 5G wireless etc.
