Description

The DM6437EVM is a complete Imaging Hardware and Software systems available with a variety of imagers and LCDs. The new low-cost DSP makes this camera very attractive in large volume applications. The CDK for DM6437 is a full reference design and include example code for the EVM, full schematics, layout. It also incorporates spare GPIO and a customizable Prototyping Area.

Included software files let you capture and display images, as well as set up the imager and LCD parameters. The USB 2.0 port allows image data to be rapidly downloaded to an included Windows-based program. A Window’s DLL in the software kit gives you the ability to develop your own custom applications. Software libraries are included for LCD display, LCD GUI routines, image capture and processing. Example programs are furnished that utilize Code Composer Studio to download bitmaps from the imager and upload them to the LCD.
