OMAP-DM coprocessors address the need for increased multimedia performance in the cellular handset market. As wireless services drive forward into advanced 3G and 4G technologies, camera phones are moving up to 20-megapixel image sensors, with displays showing a corresponding increase in resolution. OMAP-DM devices allow handset manufacturers to quickly adapt their current architectures in order to deliver camera phones that meet consumer demands and differentiate their products. The coprocessors combine TI's expertise in imaging and wireless technologies to help extend the capabilities of media-centric handsets to include higher camera and display resolutions and more features than ever, including 720p H...

The MAX8834, a 1.5A white-LED (WLED) flash driver IC in a tiny, 5mm² wafer-level package (WLP). This device integrates an I²C interface, a 5V PWM DC-DC step-up converter, two high-current regulators for movie and flash lighting, and a low-current regulator for driving an indicator LED. Providing a compact, flexible solution for supporting 5-megapixel cameras, the MAX8834 is ideal for smartphones and other cellular handsets requiring a flash current of 1.5A. Operating from an input supply as low as 2.5V, the MAX8834 is able to support the next-generation of deep-discharge battery chemistries...
