SoC chip from TI for processing Digital video data

Texas Instruments has introduced the TMS320DM6467T, a new 1 GHz, digital media system-on-chip (SoC) that delivers H.264 1080p at up to 60 frames per second decode or eight channels of H.264 D1 real-time video encoding with new DaVinci video processor for video communications and security applications such as HD video conferencing, multi-format digital media adaptors, real-time digital video recorders (DVRs) and digital signage.

The DM6467T offers multi-format video supporting multiple channels, high compression technology and advanced processing capabilities such as analytics. It provides high core speed with flexible DSP programmability provides sufficient processing capacity to implement advanced video processing algorithms and functions.

The key features of the DM6467T SoC processor are,

1 GHz C64x+ DSP and 500 MHz ARM926EJ-S
Faster DDR2 interface at 400 MHz facilitates higher bandwidth for more efficient video throughput
Two integrated 500 MHz High Definition Video/Imaging Co-Processors (HD-VICP) accelerate video processing and increase application efficiency
150 MHz video port interface supports 1080p capture/display
PCI bus increased to 66 MHz for fast data transfer
Off-the-shelf video analytics function libraries are available now
High level of integration further reduces system cost, complexity, power and size
