The world's leading application processor vendor, Renesas Electronics Corporation, selects Dialog DA9052 PMIC and DA7210 audio codec for its reference platform for mobile devices capable of processing HD video images
Dialog Semiconductor plc (FWB: DLG), a leading provider of highly integrated innovative power management semiconductor solutions, has announced its DA9052 system level power management (PMIC) and DA7210 Class G audio ICs have been incorporated in the Renesas Electronics' SH7724 reference platform, which is now shipping and generally available.
Renesas Electronics' SH7724 reference platform (part number ROP7724LC0021RL) facilitates the design of a wide range of mobile devices, such as IP security cameras, car navigation systems with terrestrial digital broadcasting reception and portable media players. It combines Renesas Electronics' SH7724 multimedia applications processor with Dialog's ICs to significantly lower the power consumption and cut the build cost by reducing the number of peripheral power supply and audio system components. It also ensures these designs deliver high quality audio.
Typical products based on the Renesas Electronics' multimedia processor and Dialog ICs include tablet PCs, ultra mobile devices, in-car navigation systems, portable TV systems and IP security cameras.
'This is another success for our Processor Partner Programme and we are proud to have been selected by Renesas Electronics for inclusion in its SH7724 reference platform. Recording and replaying high definition video is both power intensive and demanding. Combining Dialog's flexible system level power management and low power audio ICs with Renesas Electronics' exceptionally efficient applications processor minimises both peak power and dissipation and sets a new standard in HD video efficiency,' said Udo Kratz, VP and general manager of the audio and power management business unit at Dialog Semiconductor.
Battery life, and therefore power management, is essential in delivering today's portable battery powered products. The Renesas Electronics' SH7724 reference design combines a small footprint with powerful performance to give designers an accelerated route to market, and a significant head start in developing next generation HD connected devices. The DA9052 system level power management IC uses a revolutionary graphical user interface to precisely and simply optimise the power sequencing requirements of a system. It gives greater flexibility in reducing power consumption, size and cost in portable multimedia devices.
The DA7210 is a high performance Class G audio codec, has an industry leading consumption level of 2.5mW and incorporates the industry's first onboard general purpose filter to enable fine-tuning and optimisation of the audio response for small speakers and enclosures.
