Pericom Semiconductor has partnered Techwell to develop customer reference design (CRD) for PCIe (PCI Express) based DVR solutions for the CCTV security and surveillance markets.
The company said that the new CRD platform provides software driver support for Windows and Linux based OS and is available for security and surveillance customers for various applications. The new design also includes complete physical layout, schematics, BOM and software drivers.
The new CRD platform features eight Techwell TW6805 PCI-based video decoder ICs with audio and TS input, and Pericom’s PI7C9X112SL – a PCIe-to-PCI Bridge IC offering 8-PCI bus-master support.
David Nam, vice president of Sales & Marketing at Techwell, said: “Pericom’s new PCIe Bridge enables Techwell to provide a very cost effective, multi-channel decoder solution to our CCTV, security, and surveillance customers. Our joint CRD with Pericom allows our customers to get to market quickly with a fully functional and validated solution.”
Jen Lee, marketing director of Taiwan office at Pericom, said: “Our PCIe bridge, packet switch, and signal conditioning (ReDriver) products are designed to enable cost effective customer solutions, such as our joint security and surveillance CRD with Techwell.”
