Introduction

ultra-compact multi-chip modules by Orsys are read-to-use FireWire peripheral interface devices for integrating digital hardware, such as cameras, sensors, and other embedded devices, within a high performance FireWire networking environment.

UC1394a-1

Implemented as tiny (30x36mm) surface mount PLCC devices, they combine all of the resources necessary to interface and control just about any hardware peripheral. On-board DSP, FPGA, and a wide variety of serial, analog, and configurable digital I/O resources provide the developer with a diverse range of plug & play and software programmable capabilities for IEEE 1394 FireWire connectivity, embedded peripheral control, signal and image processing applications.

ultra-compact Family of Multi-Chip Modules

The ultra-compact family of multi-chip modules allows developers to optimize systems for application needs, as well as cost, flexibility, and overall system performance. Common features include:

  • Data Streaming over FireWire at up to 32MBytes/sec
  • Two 400Mbit/sec IEEE 1394a compliant FireWire Communication Ports
    • Fully interoperable with IEEE 1394b
  • Optionally Programmable TMS320C5000 DSP
  • Optionally Programmable Spartan-II or Spartan-3 FPGA
  • Extensive parallel, serial, and customizable hardware interfacing options
  • Tiny 30x36mm 116-pin PLCC form factor
