ChipWrights Inc. - part of AD Group - announces that the D-Motion, a full-function PMP, now being offered in Japan uses ChipWrights' CW4512 DSP as its core processor.

“We are thrilled that D-Motion is having such great success with ChipWrights' CW4512 processor," said Cary Robins, President of ChipWrights, Inc., a semiconductor company based in Bedford, Massachusetts. “ChipWrights' processors are well-suited for mass market applications with their low cost, high level of integration, low power and feature flexibility,” he added.

The CW4512 has extensive peripheral support for today's wide array of portable media devices. The inclusion of specific interfaces for connecting to CCD and CMOS image sensors, analog and digital displays, audio CODECs, Secure Digital, and USB 1.1, combined with support for a variety of video and audio formats makes CW4512 an ideal replacement for fixed function devices.

The PMP has a 2.5-inch TFT LCD that provides razor-sharp picture definition and vivid colors on a scratch-resistant screen. The PMP supports standard video and audio formats; a conversion utility provides support for non-standard file formats. A built-in encoder provides direct encoding for TV and DVD for video playback. An SD storage drive provides removable storage capability.
