Integrated television processor

By forming a digital video processor and digital television controller on the same integrated circuit, a number of advantages in improved picture quality can be obtained. The length of the communication connections between these two elements can be reduced, thus reducing television picture distortion caused by electromagnetic interference. Additionally, the elements can be controlled by a single dot clock generator with a single phase locked loop circuit. Also, register banks can be used for intercommunication between the television controller and the video processor rather than the communication between the two different ICs over a bus.
