<div dir="ltr">I saw the GM8126 / GM8128 chips from grain-media:<div><br></div><div><a href="http://www.grain-media.com">www.grain-media.com</a><br></div><div><br></div><div style>and then I found a lot of info:</div><div style>
<br></div><div style><a href="http://www.openipcam.com/files/ARM9/GM8126/">http://www.openipcam.com/files/ARM9/GM8126/</a><br></div><div style><br></div><div style>Those SoC are relatively slow (ARMv5 compilant core at 533MHz), surely. But they pack a lot of peripherals:</div>
<div style>- 10/100 ethernet with intergrated PHY (!!!)</div><div style>- USB 2.0 (HS) with PHY </div><div style>- BT.656 video in (x2)</div><div style>- AES/DES</div><div style>- LCD</div><div style>- PAL encoder</div><div style>
- single 3.3V supply (!!!)</div><div style>- H.264 encoder </div><div style>- SDHC</div><div style>- and a lot of other useful peripherals</div><div style><br></div><div style>It is available in TQFP176 and BGA. TFQP misses some of the features, but not many. </div>
<div style><br></div><div style>Same company has some more advanced chips for DVRs with SATA2, 1000G and more, but they start from BGA464.</div><div style><br></div><div style>I will try to find something cheap that uses 8126/8128 for experiments. It seems that the Linux SDK is complete and available.</div>
<div style>Ubiquiti AirCam is based on this - so we have a place to look for (request) information.</div><div style><br></div><div style>Any comments/suggestions on this? Hardware dissections?</div></div>
