Product Description
Broadcom Automotive Camera MCU with Image Processing and Ethernet Streaming Pipeline - BCM8910X
The Broadcom BCM8910X is a fully-integrated Broad R-Reach camera endpoint microcontroller (MCU) device designed for automotive vision-based applications including rearview and side-view cameras. The built-in ARM Cortex core supports low latency interrupt processing though the RTOS, runs an Ethernet Audio Video Broadcast (AVB) stack, and processes housekeeping tasks for a wide range of peripherals supporting 100Mbps / 1Gbps Ethernet, GMSL and wireless camera applications. The device has flexible camera interface that works with many types of camera sensors. Equipped with a customizable high dynamic range (HDR) imaging pipeline, the BCM8910X allows for scalable camera solutions from low latency video encoders to smart camera MCUs. A graphics plane overlay with alpha blending allows customers to superimpose guidelines or counters before encoding the video and streaming it over BroadR-Reach Ethernet.
