The MN820 is a development module featuring the BT820, Bridgetek’s 5th generation Embedded Video Engine (EVE). The MN820 mini module integrates the BT820 chip and 1Gbit DDR3L memory, along with a DC-DC buck converter that powers the onboard memory independently, enabling operation with a single power source.
When paired with the VM820C baseboard, which includes power and audio circuits, a USB-QSPI bridging IC, and IO connectors, developers can easily communicate with external devices and fully utilise the BT820’s capabilities.
Developers can also seamlessly integrate the BT820 into their products by using the MN820 and connecting it via a 100-pin board-to-board connector to their application PCB. This approach reduces development time and eliminates the complexity of designing the high-speed DDR3 subsystem, allowing for a low-cost PCB implementation.
