AU1200-400MGD Datasheet, PDF (1/4 Pages) List of Unclassifed Manufacturers – RMI Alchemy Au1200 Processor

RMI Alchemy™ Au1200™ Processor
Go Mobile. Go Global. Go Now.
Optimized for Personal Media Player (PMP) Applications
PRODUCT BRIEF
Product Overview
The RMI Alchemy™ Au1200™ processor leverages a 5-year
commitment to developing high-performance, low-power solutions
to provide a purpose-built, versatile processor for Personal Media
Player (PMP), Automotive, and Digital Media Adapter (DMA)
applications. The Au1200 processor enables users to download
media quickly and enjoy DVD-quality video efficiently delivered at
full-frame rates, with low power, and with ample product features.
The RMI Alchemy Au1200 processor gives system designers an
easy-to-use, simple solution to create full-featured PMPs with
greatly reduced design cycle times. System-on-a-Chip (SoC)
architecture eliminates the need for additional components.
The processor is available in an extended temperature range
option of -40ºC to 100ºC for all speeds.
Highlights
Transcoding Not Required
The RMI Alchemy Au1200 processor supports common digital
video media, including MPEG, DivX, and WMV9, and delivers full
D1 resolution without the need to transcode content between PC
or PVR and the PMP. This reduces the time required to download
fresh content and helps enable consumers to take media “on the
go” faster and easier.
The Au1200 processor also leverages a unique approach to
DDR1 and DDR2 memory to deliver better overall performance
than SDRAM components. And the Au1200 processor achieves
faster I/O via USB 2.0 to give designers a range of enhanced con-
nectivity options.
The Alchemy family of pin-compatible Media and Navigation SoCs
enables designers to support multiple price-performance points
and application requirements from a single board design.

No Need for DSPs
The RMI Alchemy Au1200 processor incorporates an integrated
Media Acceleration Engine optimized for video to eliminate the
need for DSPs and specialized coding. This means less overall
power consumption and a simplified design.
Video Codecs ported by RMI = Low Engagement Cost
Since RMI ports all video codecs that are supported by the on-
chip Media Acceleration Engine, there is no need to engage
expensive 3rd party codec software development vendors. No
NRE, so OEMs/ODMs immediately realize a lower solution cost.
