DESCRIPTION
The Visbaä ES3883 video CD companion chip (CC) is the second-generation companion chip that provides an optimal system design for a video CD player when used with the Visba ES3880 video CD PC. The ES3883 Visba video CD CC integrates the CD-ROM controller (featuring direct servo control), as well as most of the required analog discrete components, into a simple, highly cost-effective design for a video CD player. The Visba video CD CC provides the best quality for both video and audio, and easily passes the highest graded level for the China VCD standard.
