Las Vegas - Philips Semiconductors is expected to demonstrate an HDTV reference platform at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) here next month. The reference design will be based on new versions of Philips' TM-2 Trimedia processor. The media processor will demultiplex audio, video and 2-D computer graphics from the likely 19-Mbits/second HDTV transport stream, said Neil Mitchell, DTV marketing manager at Philips. The reference design will be one of the first to implement the recommendations of the Advanced Television Systems (ATSC).

The ATSC, which expects HDTV transmissions to begin in the United States in late 1998, has specified VSB-8 RF modulation, an MPEG -2 video compression and transport stream, Dolby AC-3 audio encoding and multiple picture formats.
