The role of ZF in the 1 series

One of the items I read about the automatic tranmission is that it's a six speed that produces engine-rev matching in downshifts. Hmmm - I've driven several examples of the DSG gearbox (Audis and VWs) but was intrigued that a torque converter equipped automatic (planetary gearset) would do rev-matched downshifts. Is this the ZF six speed auto?

If so there is some info on this gearbox on the ZF site.
