The LC78684E integrates, on a single chip, CD-ROM signal-processing functions, MP3 signal-processing functions, and CD-DA shockproof signal-processing functions. The LC78684E achieves significant power savings by implementing signal-processing functions using hardwired structures. A CD player that supports playback of MPEG audio (MP3) recorded on CD media as well as CD-DA shockproof playback can be implemented by combining this IC with a CD DSP, DRAM, and audio D/A converter, and other circuits.
