AT76C111

The AT76C111 is a highly-integrated solution for digital cameras. It combines a numberof functions that are required in digital cameras.• Image data acquisition and capturing from either CCD or CMOS imagers• Image display• Image processing and image storing• Overall camera management• Control of general-purpose I/O functions• Data communication• Control of user functions• On-screen Display

AT76C111 also provides a large number of interfaces that allow camera manufacturers to directlyaccess a variety of devices that may be present in a digital camera.• Communication with PCs• Communication with Flash cards• Serial communication ports for controlling other devices in the cameraThe design is based on an ARM® microprocessor that controls the entire chip AT76C111. A numberof hardware resources, controlled by ARM, perform digital camera functions such asimage DSPprocessing, JPEG coding/decoding, DMA access to SDRAM and Videoencoding. All these computational-intensive functions are implemented in hardwarewhich can be programmed according to user specifications, thus allowing ARM to befree for other user-defined functions.
