Z3-DM8169-VI-RPS V1.05.03b 1. General Description The Z3-DM8169-VI-RPS development system that allows encode/decode of 1080p60 video to/from a variety of different sources. It consists of both hardware and software. The hardware provided includes one Z3- DM8169-MOD System on Module card and a carrier or application board, the Z3-DM8169-APP-3x (x is the HW release version), which provides advanced video input capabilities.

CONFIDENTIAL Z3-DM8169-VI-RPS V1.05.03b An application board, the Z3-DM8169-APP-3X, is available from Z3 Technology and is included with the Z3- DM8169-VI-RPS system. This application board uses the I/O expansion capability of the Z3-DM8169-MOD to implement additional functions not present in the base module. The Z3-DM8169-APP-3X application board has an HDMI input, 3G SDI input/output, ASI input/output, YPbPr input and two analog stereo audio inputs.
Whether the end application requires encode or decode of media from storage or streaming, the readily available, production-ready Z3-DM8169-MOD will simplify the overall system design, reducing time to market and cost. ___________________________________________________________________________________________ Z3 Technology, LLC ♦ 100 N 8 ST, STE 250 ♦ Lincoln, NE 68508-1369 USA ♦ +1.402.323.0702...
The maximum continuous power consumption by the whole Z3-DM8169-MOD system during normal operation should be less than 18W, with up to 12W dissipated by the main processor. Please plan the cooling strategy appropriately. ___________________________________________________________________________________________ Z3 Technology, LLC ♦ 100 N 8 ST, STE 250 ♦ Lincoln, NE 68508-1369 USA ♦ +1.402.323.0702...
