DM648 Digital Video Development Platform
TMDSDVP648
Description
DaVinci™ TMS320DM648 Digital Video Development Platform (DVDP) simplifies development of digital video
applications. The DM648 DVDP provides developers with a comprehensive hardware and software platform
that can be used throughout the entire design process to accelerate the development of a wide range of
applications such as multi-channel video security and infrastructure applications, including digital video
recorders (DVRs), IP video servers, machine vision systems and high-performance imaging applications.
The DM648 EVM offers multiple expansion slots for extending connectivity to virtually any hardware
prototype or peripheral. The PCI Host Driver expands configuration options for developers by enabling them
to plug the DM648 EVM directly into a PC to use the PC as a host during initial development before prototype
hardware is designed and available. The EVM board is populated with a standard JTAG header for
compatibility with XDS560-based emulators and the 60-pin high density trace connector for capturing real-
time data values non-intrusively with the Blackhawk XDS560 Trace Emulator.
The DVDP includes TI’s field-proven DSP/BIOS™ kernel as well as the DSP/BIOS-based DVSDK. The DVSDK
features TI’s Codec Engine Framework, xDAIS interface standard developers kit and framework components,
XDC configuration tools and platform support such as drivers, examples and documentation. The DVSDK
also includes a an evaluation version of the Network developers kit and a variety of A/V codec packaged to
use with the codec engine framework.
The DM648 DVDP kit also contains demonstration software of a video server based on Ittiam’s Video
Security Media System (VSMS). This video server demonstration consists of an 8-channel streaming server
with H.264 BP at CIF-PAL and CIF-NTSC with Bit Optimal CBR (BOCBR) capability. BOCBR achieves higher
