The HD H.264 reference design is built using Aptina’s MT9D131 HD image sensor with eASIC’s eDV9200 low cost HD H.264 CODEC. The reference design enables video capture, H.264 compression and decompression, streaming of compressed AV streams through SPI or USB2.0, storage of compressed video and audio on a Secure Digital (SD) storage card, and decompression and playback on to LCD display or through a DVI interface.
“eASIC’s eDV9200 is a powerful little CODEC that is poised to accelerate the adoption of HD in a wide variety of applications,” said David Zimpfer, Vice President and General Manager, Automotive and Industrial Business Unit at Aptina. “Through delivering a versatile platform for rapid, cost-effective system development, this new reference design will foster the rapid adoption of Aptina and eASIC technology in many applications currently untouched by HD.”
“We want to make the development of HD applications, low cost, accessible and simple for anyone,” said Jasbinder Bhoot, Vice President of Worldwide Marketing at eASIC Corporation. “Aptina’s MT9D131 HD image sensor made it very easy for us to develop a reference design platform that helps our customers get to market quickly with their innovations.”
