The Digital Cinema playback server meets the Digital Cinema Initiatives (DCI) JPEG2000 picture quality requirements by playing back digital movies at up to 250 Mbits/sec. Doremi chose Analog Devices' ADV202 codec since it is the industry's only image compression chip that meets the encoding and decoding capabilities required by DCI. The ADV202 codec contains an embedded 32-bit RISC processor system. This processor provides configuration, control and management of the dedicated hardware functions, as well as the generation of the JPEG2000 code stream. The unit includes patented SURF (Spatial Ultra-efficient Recursive Filtering) wavelet technology for real-time compression and decompression. Get more information on Analog Devices' ADV202

Thanks to embedded electronics, medical devices are getting smaller and smarter than ever. Pacemakers and implantable defibrillators are now able to call physicians. MRIs, CT scanners, and ultrasound machines are gaining mobility. And the venerable Band-Aid may soon be able to detect illnesses ranging from fevers to heart arrhythmias. On February 21, join Design News senior editor Charles Murray for a wide-ranging discussion, "Embedded Angles for Medical Products," which will explore the latest developments in medical electronics. The discussion will examine advances in medical device technology and offer an inside look at the embedded electronics behind it.
