Mr. Huang Zhijie, CTO of NationalChip was awarded this honor by GX3101-AVS SOC and its solution which he took charge of.

AVS/MPEG-2 decoder SOC-GX3101 adopts high integration SOC technologies, which can realize the performance of AVS decoding and main controlling, with simple project development and lower BOM cost. At the same time, GX3101 also has the chip and software frames of decoders of NationalChip, by which customers can easily transplant the STB software and have turn-key solution. Besides, the project of GX3101+GX1501 can reduce the difference on mature level and BOM cost between the DVB-T/AVS STB solution and the recent MPEG2 STB. And with the perfect performance on compressibility, the DVB-T/AVS solution will show its powerful competitive ability in the near future.
