Other Parts Discussed in Thread: AM5728, AM5726

Hi TI Experts,

Please let me confirm the following question.

[Question]
Would you please teach me the maximum video input interface number of AM572x family?

It seems that there are three video input module, but this module can input two video streem. So, that maximum values are 6. Is my understanding correct?

If you have any questions, please let me know.
Best regards.

  • Hi,

    I will ask the AM57X team to comment.
  • Hello Kaka,

    See my explanations about your questions:

    #Q: Would you please teach me the maximum video input interface number of AM572x family?

    - There are 3 three VIP (Video Input Ports) modules in AM572x family (AM5728 and AM5726)

    #Q: It seems that there are three video input module, but this module can input two video streem. So, that maximum values are 6. Is my understanding correct?

    • Each VIP supports 2-input stream parser slices
    • Each VIP slice can handle two streams: Port-A: 8/16/24-bit options Port-B: 8-bit only

    Each parser can handle two streams – (Port-A: 8/16/24-bit and Port-B: 8-bit configuration). 

    Best regards,
