ASC8849AETE

Overview

The ASC8849AETE is a high-definition surveillance system-on-chip from NXP, featuring a 600 MHz ARM926EJ-S CPU. It supports up to 12 MPixel sensors with 16-bit raw data input and delivers High-Profile H.264 compression at 1080p @ 45 fps or 9x D1 @ 30 fps. The device includes independent hardware engines for H.264 and MJPEG, enabling multi-stream encoding. It integrates an Ethernet MAC, USB 2.0 OTG, PCIe, and multiple I2S audio channels. Memory support includes two SDRAM channels, each handling up to 1 GB DDR-III or 512 MB DDR-II.

Feature Summary

• High-Profile H.264 compression supporting 1080p @ 45 fps or 9x D1 @ 30 fps
• Independent H.264 and MJPEG hardware encoders for multi-stream output
• Advanced ISP with 3D noise reduction, edge enhancement, and motion adaptive de-interlacing
• Integrated 600 MHz ARM926EJ-S CPU with AES/TDES/SHA encryption

Applications

• Surveillance IP cameras
• Car video recorders
• Digital video recorders (8x D1)
• Video conferencing systems
• Industrial vision applications

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the manufacturer's current selection guide to confirm pin compatibility and software support levels. Ensure the supply chain source provides original documentation matching document number 9397 750 17379. Confirm that the component meets the required environmental specifications for the intended deployment environment.

Selection Notes

Select this model when requiring 1080p @ 45 fps H.264 performance with a 600 MHz processor. It is suitable for designs needing independent MJPEG substreams alongside H.264 main streams. Compare against ASC8848A for lower cost/performance needs or ASC8851A for higher frame rates. Ensure the design accommodates the TFBGA-484 package and sufficient DDR memory bandwidth.

Part Context

This component belongs to the ASC884xA and ASC885xA family of integrated IP camera solutions. These products are pin-to-pin compatible with previous NXP IP camera generations, facilitating design upgrades. The family ranges from 720p @ 30 fps to 1080p @ 60 fps capabilities, sharing common image signal processing pipelines and software development kits.

Replacement Considerations

ASC8848A offers similar functionality at 500 MHz with lower max sensor resolution support. ASC8851A provides higher H.264 performance at 1080p @ 45 fps but may have different power characteristics. All family members are pin-to-pin compatible.
