Accelerate Development of Your Digital Video Application with the First Products Based on DaVinci™ TechnologyNew DaVinci™ Technology makes breakthrough innovation possible in digital media devices for the hand, home and car. DaVinci is optimized for digital video systems and includes digital signal processor (DSP) based SoCs, multimedia codecs, ASPs and frameworks and development tools. These integrated components are the industry’s first complete offering of an open platform.

Sampling Today, Digital Video SoCs Reduce System CostSampling today, the first processors based on DaVinci™ Technology offer unprecedented video integration for applications such as videophones, automotive infotainment, digital still camera’s, streaming media, IP set-top boxes, video security systems and digital video products that have yet to be invented.

The TMS320DM644x™ architecture is a highly integrated SoC that is based on the TMS320C64x+™ DSP core, an ARM926 processor and includes video accelerators, networking peripherals and external memory/storage interfaces all specifically tuned for video. This high level of integration reduces overall system cost. Review block diagram and details about the TMS320DM6446 and TMS320DM6443 digital media processors.

Software: Open, optimized and production testedThe DaVinci software infrastructure ranges from low-level OS drivers to application APIs and makes it possible for developers to implement digital video without having to focus resources on writing and optimizing codecs and programming a DSP. APIs mask the complex hardware and software details of implementing codecs from developers, enabling them to interchange multimedia codecs without having to modify application code. Review complete details about software, including information about MontaVista Linux.

When creating applications, developers are able to write to industry-recognized APIs for storage, networking and video interfaces leveraging standard OS development environments. OEMs are still empowered to access and develop directly on the DSP and ARM should they choose. The result is that developers are able to take advantage of the SoC’s performance and focus on developing value-added features.

Complete System Tools and Support get you to market fasterGet started today with the new Digital Video Evaluation Module (DVEVM). The DVEVM allows developers to write production-ready application code for the ARM and access to the DSP core using DaVinci APIs to begin immediate application development for the DM6443 and DM6446 devices. Review DVEVM whitepaper or learn specifics of DVEVM.

DaVinci products are backed by TI’s third party network that is able to offer video system expertise to customers worldwide. In addition to DaVinci products, TI offers a complete portfolio of high-performance analog products for video applications.
