In addition, Z3's SODIMM edge connector interface provides a flexible, yet cost effective interface to the DM365 device's peripherals and video processing subsystem. Since the DM365 is based on DaVinci™ technology, customers not only benefit from the multimedia flexibility but also proven technology, software, tools and support.  

"Z3-DM365-MOD-05 offers OEM's a proven multimedia module in a compact form-factor. Next generation products require low-power, HD H.264 as well as an easy to use development environment. Z3's Z3-DM365-MOD-05 supports all of these requirements as well as reducing time to market to only a few months," says Aaron Caldwell, CEO Z3 Technology.

Z3-DM365-MOD-05 is immediately available in a compact 44mm x 67mm form-factor and provides access to all peripherals via the edge connector.
